Many women with unruly hair that frizzes in our southern climate are having a Brazilian Blowout Keratin Treatment done. You may have that type of hair and wonder if it's for you. How can you know if you should do it or not. Some of the answers to your questions are below. It may not be for everyone but being informed is truly half the battle.
Does the treatment damage my hair?
The treatment is Not a true chemical alteration in the hair, so it does not do any internal damage. Because the treatment is designed for hair that is already somewhat chemical treated, it can help repair and smooth down the hair, if done properly.
What can I expect from the service and how long does it take?
Every system varies but the Rejuvenol Treatment is moderate strength and is considered a 4-6 month treatment. It is done on freshly shampooed hair that has been dried. After the treatment solution is applied, the hair is dried again. Once dry, the hair goes through the flat iron process. Each section is about 1/8"-1/4" thick and flat ironed approximately 8 times to press the treatment into the hair and seal it in.
When can I wash my hair after the treatment?
It is recommended to wait up to 4 days after. It is also recommended that you do not clip or pin the hair but keep it in its most straightened state.
What can I do to keep the treatment in longer?
If you can go with out shampooing your hair daily, you can prolong the life of the treatment. You can easily shampoo the front and pin the back away. The less you shampoo, the longer the life.
Staying away from any pool water will help. Using the proper recommended Rejuvenol Shampoo and conditioner will keep the treatment looking and feeling fabulous. Using the wrong products can "eat away" at the treatment.
If it's not a chemical straightener, then what is it?
It is a glaze of sorts, sealing in the hair at it's straightened state. It smooth's the hair and creates a barrier to humidity and frizz. It may not really straighten your hair altogether but it will definitely be frizz free and humidity resistant.
Can I color my hair?
Yes, and its recommended with the product to have your color done first, then your treatment.
My friend says her hair yellowed, why?
Blonde hair can yellow from the extreme high heat of the flat iron. After a test strand, blonde hair may need lower temperatures in flat iron process.
What if I don't really like my hair flat ironed?
It must be flat iron for the process. The high heat drives the product into the hair and creates the bond. after a few days, you can shampoo. At that time, you do not have to flat iron your hair. However, if you like it very flat and shiny, you will need to flat iron for that look.
