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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. Rushing leads to uneven absorption. Ask for an exact arrival time. If they overbook, you wait longer. Verify they start with your shampoo. Verify before you sit down.
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.
Do not buy random shampoo at the store. The salon sells specific aftercare lines. These maintain the treatment bond. Using wrong products ruins the investment. Buy the recommended conditioner. It has pH near 4.5. Daily use keeps hair smooth. Check the price before agreeing. It adds to the total cost.
Porosity measures how well hair absorbs water. High porosity absorbs too much. Low porosity resists it. A good stylist tests a strand first. They adjust product strength accordingly. Wrong strength leads to mushy hairs or no change. Tell them about previous bleaching or heat damage.
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.
