Want this question answered?
you basically just spent all that money for nothing.
Wait three or four days after getting your keratin treatment before washing your hair. That's generally the amount of time it takes the keratin to penetrate and really starts working on your hair. Wash your hair any sooner, and you'll lose the effect of the treatment.
So the treatment can soak in so you dont wash it out and throw your money down the drain.
Depending on the type of Keratin treatment they last from 2 to 5 months. The treatment wares off, or washes out over time. The less you wash your hair the longer it will last. You will start to see the wave or curl returning in your hair.
You can wash your hair 72 hours after the keratin treatment which is the recommended time for effective results.Other vital activities are using an effective shampoo after the treatment, I highly recommend Coppola complex shampoos which guarantee,best results.
It depends on your hair type & the temperature its treated with the keratin. I had kinky frizzy hair & the keratin home treatment made it pin straight and it will barely hold a curl. Talk to a stylist with experience in keratin before you do anything to your hair.
yes , washing is the first step.Because the keratin will be on your hair afterwords,you will not need to wash it and don't worry it's not stickky or stinky it smells good. I'm talking about my experience.The keratin that was used on my hair was strong but it didn't stink. go to www.myshoutsofjoy.com the owner of that salon is very very good and I'm not kidding
usually three days after, unless you get the "24 hour treatment" then you can wash it the next day. but make sure you know what treatment your getting so you know when to wash it. Even with the 24 hr treatment they want you to wait as long as possible. I got my hair done yesterday with the 24hr treatment and they said i could wash it today but it would be better if i could wait an extra day.also dont forget to use a sodium/sulfate free shampoo!
3 days
Please use only sodium chloride free or sulphate free hair products after the keratin hair treatment. The reason for this is the salt content will strip the keratin from your hair. hence it is recommended to use only sodium chloride free shampoos and conditioners to wash your hair. INOVA PROFESSIONAL SMOOTH PROTECTION SULFATE FREE SHAMPOO is the best shampoo to use after the treatment along with INOVA PROFESSIONAL SMOOTH HYDRATION CONDITIONER.
because if you dont it will get grose
Wash you hair often as you can with a shampoo that contains sodium chloride. You could even mix some regular table table salt in your shampoo to speed up the process.
