About Hair Botox
Common mistakes that ruin the result
Skipping the flat iron heat seal leaves the product only on the surface and washes out within days. Using sulfate shampoo in the first 3 days strips the actives. Tying the hair tight right after the service creates marks that set into the new shape.
Step by Step at the Salon
The technician washes hair with a clarifying shampoo, towel-dries it to about 70 percent, then sections the hair and applies the botox formula with a brush. After 20 to 45 minutes under a plastic cap, hair is rinsed, blow-dried, and flat-ironed in sections at 200 to 230 degrees Celsius to seal the product.
Aftercare Routine at Home
Wash hair only with sulfate-free shampoo after 48 hours. Use a silicone-free mask once a week to avoid coating buildup. Sleep on a silk pillowcase to reduce friction. Limit flat-ironing to once a week at 150 degrees maximum. Deep-condition with protein-free products to maintain softness.
Price and what changes the cost
Pricing depends on hair length, thickness, and the amount of product needed. Short hair costs less than waist-length hair because the dose scales with grams used. Technician experience, brand tier, and added extras such as a keratin sealer raise the total.
What Hair Botox Is
Hair botox is a deep conditioning treatment that fills porous strands with proteins, amino acids, and ceramides. Unlike keratin, it contains little to no formaldehyde. The formula coats the cuticle, smooths frizz, and adds shine for 2 to 4 months. It is cosmetic, not permanent, and washes out gradually over time.
Common Mistakes That Ruin the Result
Skipping the clarifying wash leaves product buildup that blocks absorption. Ironing at under 180 degrees prevents proper sealing, causing wash-out within 2 weeks. Tying hair in a tight bun while still warm creates kinks that last for days. Washing hair within 48 hours strips the active ingredients before they set.
How long the result lasts
Results stay visible for 8 to 16 weeks depending on hair porosity, home care, and wash frequency. High porosity hair absorbs more product and may keep the effect longer. Washing every day shortens the lifespan, while sulfate-free shampoo extends it.
Hair botox versus keratin straightening
Hair botox targets internal repair and reduces frizz without changing the curl pattern much. Keratin straightening uses stronger actives and thermal plates to relax the curl for a straighter shape. Botox fades gradually, while keratin treatments can last 4 to 6 months.
Price and What Changes the Cost
Hair botox typically costs between 80 and 250 dollars. The price rises with hair length (above 30 cm adds 20 to 40 percent), thickness, and density. Adding toner, extra masks, or a second round of product increases the total. Mobile technicians usually charge 20 to 50 dollars extra for travel.
Who it works best for
The treatment works well on dry, frizzy, chemically damaged, or wavy hair that resists other masks. Very fine hair may feel heavy or look flat after the procedure. Bleached hair with elasticity loss often sees the biggest improvement because the product targets the weakest parts of the strand.
