What is Keratin by Jaclynn Kate
So you went somewhere else and your double process bleached your hair and now it's a frizzy damaged mess? I hear this often. So in most cases your hairdresser will suggest for you to get a Keratin treatment. Often times when I suggest this to my clients, they respond with 'well what exactly is a keratin'? So I'm going to take the time to break it down for you.
What Is Keratin? It's a protein that's naturally in your hair.
How It Works: A stylist applies a keratin hair-straightening product to your hair and then uses the blow dryer to seal it in following the use of a flat iron to seal it in. The process takes about 90 minutes or longer, depending on your hair's length. Our salon uses the keratin product Keratin Complex Smoothing Therapy by Coppola.
Time-Saving Tresses: If you usually style your hair straight, a keratin hair-straightening treatment could shorten your blow-dry time by 40% to 60%.
Farewell, Frizz: You can forget about frizzy hair after treatment. "You could walk out in moist or light rain and your hair won’t change," if your stylist did it correctly.
Wait Before You Wash: You shouldn't wash your hair for three or four days after getting the treatment. That's because the solution takes time to work.
Upkeep: After you get a keratin hair treatment, and after the don't-wash waiting period, you should use sodium-sulfate-free shampoo to help maintain the treatment. It is recommended to use the same brand of Keratin shampoo to ensure the longevity of the treatment. These products were made to work together. Protect your investment.
How Long It Lasts: Expect the results to last three - six months depending upon which level of treatment you requested to receive.
Keratin treatments won't make your hair break, but the flat-ironing might. "The hair breakage has nothing to do with the treatments and everything to do with the flat irons that are used to dry and seal the hair afterward," says New York dermatologist Neil Sadick, MD. "Some stylists may use a flat iron that is way too hot and scorches hair, making it break off."
Keratin is more of a restorative treatment, even if you have a good hair type, it still strengthens the hair shaft and makes your hair more resilient."
Here's a little before & after of one of my bridal clients whom I did a Keratin treatment on.
