Home care after hair straightening procedures

Hanna Stepul

After procedures, it is essential to provide proper care. With the right haircare, you can maintain the results for a long time, but you can also support the health of your hair.

The key is to pay attention to the care in the first three days after the procedure. During this time, the hair requires special attention as it is particularly vulnerable. It’s essential to follow the specialist’s recommendations and choose specific products for hair care. 

What should you avoid doing after hair straightening?

One of the main advantages of modern straightening treatments in our store is that there are no restrictions after the procedure.

• You don’t need to wait three days to wash your hair. 
• You can wear accessories and hats. 
• You can tie your hair in a ponytail or braid it.

Hair care after the straightening procedure involves using shampoo, masks, and conditioner that can enhance and prolong the effect. Your stylist performing the straightening will provide more details about choosing the right cosmetic products.

How to wash and dry your hair after keratin treatment?

• Use sulfate-free shampoo. Sulfates can wash away the keratin from your hair. We recommend using gentler and safer products. 
• Avoid rubbing your hair while washing. Instead, gently massage the scalp and rinse the shampoo under a stream of water to avoid damaging the coating. 
• Properly dry your hair. After washing, gently squeeze out excess moisture using a soft towel. It’s best to use a hairdryer set to a low temperature for hair drying and choose a low airflow.

What products can you use after keratin treatment?

After keratin hair straightening, your hair needs additional care. You can use several products to extend the effect and provide protection.

• Hair masks:

Maintaining optimal moisture levels is crucial for hair care after keratin treatment. Keratin covers the hair with a protective film; hair masks can help retain moisture. Using a hair mask is recommended 1-2 times a week.

• Special products to maintain the effect:

Special products are designed to preserve the straightening effect and smooth your hair. These include conditioners, sprays, serums, and creams. Regularly using these products will help maintain the results for a long time.

Our shop has a very effective new Hair Schedule Ampoules Power UP, which helps to keep your hair perfectly straight and gives it softness.

• Hair protection from external factors:

After straightening, it is necessary to protect your hair from environmental influences and heat styling tools. Special products create an additional barrier, protecting the hair from high temperatures and ultraviolet rays. These products form a protective film on the hair surface.

Home hair care after keratin and botox treatments:

After keratin and botox treatments, proper care is necessary. Since these procedures differ in composition, there are differences in the haircare required. Here are some recommendations for caring for your hair after both procedures.

Care should focus on moisturizing and nourishing the hair afterward. The keratin film applied to the hair during the procedure provides a long-lasting smoothing effect. To extend this effect, choose moisturizing shampoos, conditioners, and masks.
