A keratin treatment can transform frizzy, unruly hair into smooth, shiny, and manageable locks. However, to maintain the results and keep your hair looking its best, proper aftercare is essential. At Adora Beauty, we want you to enjoy long-lasting benefits from your treatment. Here are some expert tips to help you protect your hair after a keratin treatment.
The first three days after your keratin treatment are crucial. Water can interfere with the bonding process of keratin to your hair, so avoid washing or wetting your hair for at least 72 hours. Even sweat and humidity can weaken the treatment, so try to stay cool and dry.
Pro Tip:
If your hair accidentally gets wet, immediately blow-dry and straighten it on a low heat setting to restore the smoothness.
Many regular shampoos contain sulfates and sodium chloride, which can strip away keratin and natural oils from your hair. To extend the life of your treatment, switch to a sulfate-free, keratin-safe shampoo and conditioner.
Although keratin-treated hair is already sleek and frizz-free, excessive heat styling can cause damage and shorten the treatment’s lifespan.
Limit the use of flat irons and curling wands
Always apply a heat protectant spray before styling
Blow-dry on a low to medium setting
If you need to refresh your look, opt for heat-free hairstyles like loose braids or buns.
Extra Tip:
Tie your hair in a loose, low ponytail or braid to reduce friction even further.
Both chlorine from pools and salt from the ocean can break down the keratin and dry out your hair. If swimming is unavoidable:
Wear a swim cap
Rinse hair with clean water before and after swimming
Apply a leave-in conditioner as a protective barrier
Keratin treatments typically last 3 to 5 months, depending on your hair type and maintenance routine. To keep your hair strong and hydrated, consider:
Monthly deep conditioning treatments to nourish your hair
Touch-up treatments every 3-4 months for long-lasting smoothness
At Adora Beauty, we offer customized keratin aftercare treatments to keep your hair looking flawless.
Final Thoughts
Caring for your hair after a keratin treatment ensures you enjoy sleek, shiny, and frizz-free hair for months. By following these simple steps, you can maximize the longevity of your treatment and keep your hair healthy.
