About Keratin Treatment
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.
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.
What a Keratin Treatment Actually Changes in the Hair Shaft
A keratin treatment coats each strand with a protein film that fills gaps in the cuticle. The coating is sealed with a flat iron at around 230°C. Hair looks straighter and reflects more light because the surface is smoother. The effect is cosmetic, not structural, so the original curl pattern returns as the coating washes out over time.
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.
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.
Price Drivers: Why Quotes Vary by 100% or More
Home visits cost more than salon work because of travel time and setup. Hair length and density drive product use: short hair needs 30 to 40 ml, long hair up to 120 ml. Brand matters too, with imported Brazilian formulas priced higher than local equivalents. Expect a 40% to 60% surcharge for very long or very thick hair.
Aftercare Routine for the First 72 Hours
Do not wash, tie up, or tuck your hair behind your ears for the first 72 hours. Sleep on a silk pillowcase and avoid ponytail elastics. After day 3, switch to sodium-free shampoo and conditioner to protect the keratin seal.
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.
Products Used and What to Ask About Them
Most kits rely on formaldehyde or glyoxylic acid as the active straightening agent. Ask the professional for the exact brand, the percentage of active ingredient, and the safety data sheet. If you are pregnant or have respiratory issues, request a formaldehyde-free formula.
Why Results Last Longer on Some Hair Types Than Others
Coarse, thick, or very curly hair holds the keratin film for about 4 to 5 months. Fine or wavy hair loses it sooner, often after 8 to 10 weeks. Bleached or chemically processed hair absorbs more product but also strips it faster. Heat exposure and wash frequency after the treatment shorten the timeline noticeably.
