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.
Some treatments increase oil production temporarily. This happens as the scalp adjusts. You might need to wash every 2 days instead of 3. Do not fear this. Use a clarifying shampoo once a week. This removes buildup. Keeping your scalp clean prevents clogged pores. Hygiene is critical here.
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.
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.
Root gap appears when regrowth is visible. Your stylist should color 3 mm of new growth. Too much product damages old strands. Overlapping causes brittleness. Your mid-lengths feel like straw. They snap under tension. Mention this during booking. Your stylist lowers the developer volume. This saves your cuticle layer and prevents breakage at the crown.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
