Features of using hair keratin treatment

Every girl dreams of bright, healthy and shining hair. In order to fulfill this dream, there is a huge need to take care of your hair daily. For this purposes experts recommend using not only basic means of hair care, like shampoo, balm or conditioner, but also professional products. Keratin treatment is one of the most effective ways to keep your hair shiny even during domestic care.

Why are hair masks popular?

Hair mask is a highly effective, fast-acting remedy, always at hand. This is the secret of its popularity. The active formula of the mask allows you to “revive” the strands at home and look like after the salon. Even having made one procedure, the curls become shiny, silky and easy to style. Their composition is characterized by a high concentration of nutrients, which, penetrating through the shell, actively nourish the hair. Benefits of hair treatment products are:

• Improves hair structure.
• Intensive moisturize.
• Stimulates growth.
• Revitalizes the ends of the hair.
• Strengthens the hair.
• Adds volume.
• Normalizes the functions of the sebaceous glands.
• Treats the scalp.

Unlike the use of a balm or conditioner, keratin treatment products are more intense and have a more lasting effect.

How to use masks for damaged hair?

There are several steps of using a hair mask. The product is applied to washed strands, which must first be dried with a towel. The mask can be used both in the interval between shampoo and conditioner, and as an independent care product (instead of conditioner). Remember that it’s beneficial to use a mask for hair treatment no more than twice a week. 

Too frequent use of the product does not provide strands with health and a quick transformation. Cosmetic masks, which can be purchased in stores, are advised to be kept on the hair for up to an hour, although there are express masks that are already in effect in several minutes. The duration of action of home products can reach up to 40 minutes and even an hour. Calculate the time before applying the mask for damaged hair in order to get a perfect result.

Masks for damaged hair: homemade or professional?

If your hair is suffering from damage, hair loss, breakage and other annoying problems, a keratin treatment can come in handy. It doesn’t matter if you buy it or make it from improvised products. The most popular and simple masks for dry and damaged hair that can be made at home most often include ingredients such as: eggs, honey, various oils, beer, herbal extracts. They also like to use dairy products, such as kefir and sour cream. 

However, it is not always possible to cure hair with the help of improvised products. Very often homemade substances are not enough to maintain the health of your hair. Instead, experts advise using ready-made cosmetics with natural ingredients. It is recommended to use masks with a natural composition, vitamins and powerful antioxidants (flavonoids) in the composition. Such a mask will provide your damaged hair with the necessary help and help restore its appearance. Use the mask several times a month to achieve the desired effect as soon as possible!
