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.
Pricing varies by hair density and length. Long hair costs more due to product volume. Thick strands require more chemical processing. Ask for a written estimate before starting. Compare local quotes. Keep the receipt for warranty work. Do not accept verbal guesses. Price changes happen if hair is thicker than estimated. Get clarity on extra strands.
Ask about the heat plate settings. Most keratin smoothers work at 230 degrees Celsius. Too hot burns the cuticle. Too cold fails to lock the protein. You will see frizz return in 1 week. Request a test section first. Feel the plate temperature visually. Safe gear protects your cap.
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.
Your stylist should check scalp health before any treatment. Look for signs of dandruff, oil buildup, or breakage. Ask if your hair needs a keratin repair bond or just a wash cut. Untreated breakage weakens the structure and affects results. A visual inspection is non-negotiable. If they skip that, walk away. You need a baseline. Without it, costs rise later.
Read the ingredient list on the bottle. Look for sulfates, parabens, or harsh alcohols. These dry out your ends. Ask if the brand matches your hair type. Curly hair needs moisture. Straight hair needs volume. Wrong ingredients cause frizz within 48 hours. Check for vegan or cruelty-free options too.
Do not wash your hair 24 hours before coloring. Natural oils protect the scalp. Avoid product buildup for perms. Bring your brush if you cut at home. Wear dark clothing to protect fabric. Check for existing product mixes. Some serums react badly with ammonia. Mention oils used at home. This prevents foaming during application.
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.
Use color-safe shampoo to extend treatment life. Reduce washing to 2 to 3 times per week. Dry heat melts keratin bonds quickly. Using a ceramic dryer helps preserve shine. Your dryer should stay 5 cm from the scalp. Move it constantly. Static electricity lifts cuticles. Apply leave-in conditioner only to wet ends. Dry strands absorb too much moisture and swell.
Fresh tint lasts 4 to 6 weeks before fading. Semi-permanent color washes out in 5 to 8 washes. Permanent tone requires reapplication every 4 to 6 weeks to cover roots. Your stylist explains pigment depth. Lighter shades fade faster. Ensure the product grade matches your goal. Budget for reapplication every 4 to 6 weeks.
