Deep conditioning masks often need 30 to 45 minutes to penetrate. Keratin treatments may take 3 hours total. Ask for the exact timeline. Rushing breaks down protein bonds. You will lose shine and strength. Plan your day around the full appointment block. Show up early to wait.
A full treatment takes 90 to 120 minutes. Coloring add-ons add 30 to 45 minutes. Keratin smoothing requires 100 to 140 minutes. Your schedule helps them plan products.

Many treatments require 48 hours without washing. Shampoo strips the new chemical structure. Use sulfate-free shampoo only. Wash gently. Do not rub your scalp. Massage lightly. This preserves the treatment layer. Breaking this rule reduces effectiveness by half. Your hair feels dry soon.
Keratin treatments use formaldehyde or alternatives. Ask for the ingredient label. Some formulas smell strongly of vinegar. That indicates curing agents. Ensure the product suits your hair type. Dry hair needs extra bond repair. Weaker strands need lighter formula. Ask for samples. Do not apply unknown chemicals to your scalp without checking for allergy.
Treatments cannot fix split ends. They only hide them temporarily. Ask the stylist to trim them first. Cutting damaged sections stops further breakage. They recommend trimming every 3 months. If they skip this, splits climb the shaft. This makes hair look thin and brittle. Ask for the scissor work.
Your provider should show valid licenses. Ask how long they have worked in the field. Certification ensures safety training. Check their studio reviews online. Do not trust word of mouth only. Confirm their knowledge of patch testing. New chemicals start with a small 24 hour test behind your ear. Do not skip the test if you have sensitive skin.
Treatments last 3 to 6 months. You need regular trims meanwhile. Book every 8 weeks for cuts. This removes growing out roots. Consistency keeps the style looking fresh. Skipping visits causes uneven growth. Hair looks messy quickly. Maintain the schedule. Your stylist expects you on time.
Ask the stylist to check for itching, flaking, or redness before applying products. A sensitive scalp reacts to ammonia or peroxide quickly. You may feel burning within 5 minutes. Stop immediately if pain turns sharp. Healing takes 2 to 3 days. Ignore this and you risk infection or hair loss.
Perm rods use 9 to 12 size cylinders. Thinner rods mean 9 to 12 hour processing for weak hair. Stronger chemicals cure frizz but damage the inner shaft. Ask about neutralizer time. It should be 10 to 15 minutes. Too short means weak curls. Too long means dry brittle results. Your curtain hair should check mid-treatment.
Ask if the treatment survives swimming or rain. Some bonds break upon water contact. Chlorine strips color and protein. If you swim, demand a waterproof sealant. Untreated hair fades faster in pools. You might need a rinse before entering the water. Skip this step and your scalp itches.
