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 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.
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.
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.
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.
If your hair snaps, cancel perms or bleaching now. Weak strands take years to grow back. Focus on conditioning first. Bond repair masks reduce future damage. Use them 2 times per week during recovery. You might notice improvement after 3 to 4 applications. Your stylist checks progress monthly. They adjust the formula based on elasticity tests you perform at home.
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.
Treatments last 3 to 6 months. You need regular trims meanwhile. Book every 8 weeks for cuts. This removes growing out roots. Consistency keeps the style looking fresh. Skipping visits causes uneven growth. Hair looks messy quickly. Maintain the schedule. Your stylist expects you on time.
Many treatments require 48 hours without washing. Shampoo strips the new chemical structure. Use sulfate-free shampoo only. Wash gently. Do not rub your scalp. Massage lightly. This preserves the treatment layer. Breaking this rule reduces effectiveness by half. Your hair feels dry soon.
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.
