What is Keratin Treatment And What Are Keratin Hair Products?

Mostly, beauty is considered with the facial look of an individual. However, the real facial beauty can be expressed with the style and shine of the hair. Your face would not reflect its beauty until and unless your hair matches up its shine and glow. One more true fact is that your hair needs more attention than your face. Heat, sun, pollution often damages your hair making them frizzy and rough. These damaged hair needs special treatment to get a natural look.

Among the various well known hair treatments, keratin hair treatment is the most sought after. These days, treatment is in very high demand and thus more and more hair stylists are opening clinics to offer this treatment.

This keratin hair treatment is also termed as Brazilian keratin treatment or Brazilian blowout treatment due to its evolution in Brazil. This is a temporary straightening method in which keratin protein and a preservative solution are sealed into the hair with the help of hot hair iron. After this, hair is blow dried resulting in smooth and shiny hair.

The treatment is very successful in eliminating any sort of frizz and straightens the hair for about three months. This keratin based hair treatment can be performed on all types of treated (bleached, colored, permed, relaxed, straightened) or untreated hair. The technique includes the use of a hot iron to seal the product in the hair.

Some of the main features of the treatment:
•    It eliminates frizz, roughness and dryness straightening curls and waves for few months.
•    It does not guarantee complete straightening but can work up to 90%.
•    Treatment can last up to 10-12 weeks
•    The downtime of the treatment may vary from no wait to 72 hour period.
•    During downtime, a recipient cannot wash or wet, exercise, tuck the hair or pin their hair.

How keratin is so helpful for hair?

Generally, our hair is exposed to lots of chemicals and dirt, combing and heat and some other products and services damage our hair and skin as the protein of the hair is extracted. The hair is mainly made up of protein and thus its loss will lead to the roughness and frizziness. So, in order to reclaim that lost protein, one need to use natural keratin. This will indeed get you straight, strong and shiny hair.

Keratin is also used in most of the beauty products as it helps in achieving natural skin and protects it from any damage. This protein also protects nails.

It is true that keratin Brazilian blowout is not just enough. You need to take proper care of your keratin treated hair to maintain that shine and softness. The special attention should be laid in the initial 72 hours when you are not allowed to use any style and product on the hair. Apart from this, it would be nice if you use keratin hair products like shampoos and conditioners on your hair.

The most important thing in this keratin hair treatment is the selection of your hair stylist. He/she must be a trained one so that you can enjoy the real benefits of this treatment process.
