How the technique works?
Brazilian hair straightening technique is very useful for those who have curly, wavy or kinky hair. We have in our hair a protein called Keratin, in this technique Keratin is applied on hair till the roots and then ironed with high temperature to seal in the hair cuticle with keratin; this makes the hair absolutely straight, the treatment lasts for almost 4 months after which you can repeat it to maintain straight hairs.
Keratin treatment makes the hair look shiny, healthy, tough and manageable. After this treatment you can style your hair the way you want and they will be back to their same straight condition one you wash and blow dry them again. The Brazilian hair straightening treatment works on all types of hair. However, there are few things that you have to keep in mind when getting Brazilian hair straightening done; after the treatment you must keep your hair down for at least 4 days, so you should not tie them up with a band or hair clips otherwise it will leave dent on the hairs. Also make sure that you don’t do swimming or head bath for 3-4 days and even if your hair get wet for any reason just blow dry them immediately. After 3-4 days you can manage your hair the way you want to; you can style them, color them or even curl temporarily.
There are many brands available on the salons providing Brazilian hair straightening treatment so first ask about the product in detail to your stylist and get it done from an experienced stylist. Also use shampoo and conditioner which are especially for keratin treated hair.
