Will I lose my curls after keratin treatment?

Contrary to what most people think, a keratin treatment does not straighten or loosen your curls.

What happens when keratin treatment wears off?

Keratin treatment drastically reduces hair maintenance and the need for heating tools. However, once your treatment starts to wear off and your hair becomes more prone to frizz, you might want to use a flat iron to get a smooth and shiny finish.

What does hair look like after keratin treatment?

This treatment results in silky smooth hair which gradually fades out after a few months. A Keratin treatment is unlike the straightening/rebonding process. Your hair will neither be flattened out completely, devoid of any volume, nor will it make your roots grow in curly and your ends sleek.

Will sweat ruin a keratin treatment?

Once your keratin treatment has set, there’s no need to worry about sweating. When you work out, pull your hair into a ponytail to keep it off your face. Otherwise, you should be just fine. Ladies who were used to sweat ruining their styles should notice marked results — sweaty hair will dry without frizzing.

When can I curl my hair after keratin treatment?

You can curl your hair on the same day as the treatment, as long as you have already washed the product out. At BKT Beauty, we offer after wash & beach waves straight after treatment for both Keratin and Nanoplasty. Protect your hair from damage by always using a heat protectant before styling with heat tools.

Why won’t my natural curls stay?

You want to apply your stylers to soaking wet hair in order for it to set in place as it dries. Applying product to damp or dry hair will still provide hold but it will not revive your curl definition. Air-drying yields the best curl definition, so put down the dryer if you are using one and consider plopping.

Will my new hair look different after a keratin treatment?

Since your new hair won’t have been chemically straightened, it will grow as your natural hair texture. However, you shouldn’t see an unsightly line of demarcation. As keratin treatments only last a few months, by the time a significant amount of new hair has come in, your keratin treatment will have worn off anyway.

What is a keratin treatment and how does it work?

Keratin treatments can transform hard-to-style hair into sleek and manageable tresses. After treatment, hair is visibly less frizzy and can be blown and flat ironed in half the time. While this treatment may seem miraculous, it only applies to the hair you already have.

What kind of shampoo should I use if I have keratin-treated hair?

If you’d rather not have a combination of natural hair and keratin-treated hair, the type of shampoo you use can help. Shampoos with sulfates strip keratin from hair. Typically, it’s recommended to only lather up with sulfate-free shampoos to make your treatment last longer.

How often can you put keratin treatment on your hair?

By the time your keratin treatment has started to wear off, your hair would have grown anywhere from 1/3 to 2 inches and, since keratin treatments can be reapplied once per month, it’s simple to keep your texture consistent from root to tip. If you’re still concerned, pick a different smoothing method.
