About Keratin Treatment
Questions That Separate a Trained Professional from a Beginner
Ask how many full applications they complete each month and request a portfolio of before-and-after photos. Confirm they measure hair porosity before choosing the formula. Check that they seal at 230°C with a titanium plate, not a ceramic one. A pro who refuses to share the brand name or the safety sheet is skipping safety steps.
How Much the Service Costs and Why
Home visits for short hair range from $150 to $250, while hair past the shoulders costs between $250 and $450. Price varies with the keratin brand used, hair length, and the travel fee the professional charges. Always request a written quote before booking.
Active Ingredients Commonly Used and What to Ask the Pro
Traditional formulas contain formaldehyde or methylene glycol, which release gas during ironing. Newer versions use glyoxylic acid or cysteine derivatives. Ask the professional which system they carry, request the safety data sheet, and confirm the formaldehyde level stays under 0.2% if you want the gentler option.
What a Keratin Treatment Does to Hair
A keratin treatment coats each strand with a protein solution and seals it using a flat iron at around 230 degrees. The process smooths the cuticle, reduces daily frizz, and keeps curl patterns relaxed for several weeks. It does not repair broken bonds or stop hair from falling out.
Warning Signs of a Bad Application
Hair that feels gummy, brittle, or breaks 2 cm from the scalp points to an overheated iron. Excessive smoke during sealing means the iron sat on one section too long. Request a strand test on a hidden layer before the full pass if you dye your hair.
Pre-Wash and Product Removal Before the Appointment
Wash hair the morning of the visit using a sulfate-free clarifying shampoo. Skip conditioner, leave-in products, oils, or dry shampoo for at least 24 hours before. The cuticle must be clean so the keratin can bond properly. Any residue blocks absorption and leads to patchy results that show within the first wash.
Average Duration of Results on Different Hair Types
On fine, straight hair, results usually last between 2 and 4 months. On thick, wavy, or curly hair, the smoothing effect often lasts from 4 to 6 months. Frequent washing, chlorine, and salt water shorten the lifespan of the coating within days.
Compatibility with Colored or Bleached Hair
Keratin treatments can be applied over color, but bleaching within 7 days weakens the cuticle and raises break-off risk. Wait at least 2 weeks after any chemical service before booking. Use a protein mask 5 days before the appointment to reinforce strands.
Ventilation Needs and What Those Fumes Mean
Keratin fumes contain aldehydes that irritate eyes and airways. Open at least 2 windows and keep a fan pulling air outward during the ironing stage. Anyone in the home during sealing should wear an N95 mask. A lingering chemical smell after 6 hours means the product was not fully cooked out by the iron.
How Long the Appointment Takes at Home
Plan for a window of 2 hours and 30 minutes to 4 hours from arrival to rinse. The exact time depends on hair length, density, and how much product the stylist applies. Plan for an extra 30 minutes if a toner or color was done the same day.
