Keratin treatment, also known as a Brazilian blowout or keratin smoothing treatment, is a hair treatment that aims to reduce frizz, increase shine, and make hair smoother and more manageable.
The treatment involves applying a keratin solution to the hair and then using heat to seal it in. The keratin solution typically contains formaldehyde, a chemical that helps to bond the keratin to the hair. However, some formulations are formaldehyde-free.
The treatment typically takes several hours and can last for several months, depending on the individual’s hair type and maintenance routine. After the treatment, the hair is typically straighter, smoother, and easier to style.
It is important to note that keratin treatments may not be suitable for everyone, and individuals with certain hair types or conditions may experience adverse effects from the treatment. It is important to consult with a stylist or hair care professional before getting a keratin treatment.
After getting a keratin treatment, it is important to avoid getting your hair wet or damp for at least 72 hours to allow the treatment to fully set in. This includes avoiding activities that may cause sweating, such as exercise.
When it comes to sleeping, it is best to avoid sleeping on your hair and try to keep it as straight as possible. Here are some tips to help you sleep comfortably after a keratin treatment:
Remember to wait at least 72 hours before washing or styling your hair, and follow any additional aftercare instructions provided by your stylist.
