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.
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 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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
After straightening, avoid washing for 72 hours. Dry hair sets the bond. Do not clip pulls or tight styles for 48 hours. This prevents new dents. Your hairline is vulnerable during curing. Sleep on silk if possible. Avoid chlorine pools for 10 days. Salt water strips moisture. Wait a full day before heat styling after any chemical service.
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.
