Many girls dream of beautiful and strong hair and carefully choose an individual way to care for them according to their structure and condition. No less important are salon care procedures, which often involve special rules. What is the right way to take care of my hair? We tell you about it in the article below. We have specially selected accessible information about the correct care of hair after keratin, botox, as well as the nuances of home care for both healthy and damaged hair.
Hair care after keratin
Immediately after keratin straightening procedure you should not wash your hair for 2-3 days, not to cut it and not to tie it into a tight ponytail. Pay attention, whether the hair is not deformed, for example, after several hours of lying on the pillow. If so, you should straighten it with a hair dryer. Hair in any case should not get wet for 2-3 days (do not visit the pool and sauna). After this initial period, care is actually quite simple. The main subtleties are:
- Effectively minimize the amount of creatine washed out of the hair;
- Provide hair with keratin along with cosmetics.
To maintain the effect of straightening, it is worth constantly using products rich in keratin. The online store brazil-prof.com offers professional shampoos for hair after keratin, thanks to which you will enjoy your shiny, smooth, straight hair longer.
Hair Care After Hair Botox
Proper care after hair Botox is the foundation for keeping your strands in good condition for as long as possible. The main thing is to carefully follow the instructions you received after leaving the salon. It is very important for you to know which Botox-based cosmetics for hair will work best.
What is important to remember:
- For several hours after the procedure, do not wear a head covering or tangle/tie your hair.
- As much as possible, try to avoid moisture - rain, sauna, intensive exercise (excessive sweating can damage the treatment).
- Try not to use straighteners and hair dryers, and if you need to use them, don't forget to apply a heat protectant to your hair.
- Do not visit the pool for a few days. Later, also while swimming in the sea, wear a shower cap and rinse your hair thoroughly after bathing with tap water (chlorine and salt water can reduce the effect of Botox).
- Do not dye your hair after Botox.
Which shampoo after Botox is the most suitable? Cosmetics for hair after specialized treatment should not contain strong detergents, alcohols, parabens and preservatives. Make sure that the cosmetic hair product is mild, natural and has a simple composition. It is worth buying a shampoo that contains plant extracts.
Hair care after nanoplastia
Proper hair care at home after nanoplasty is crucial for the durability of the entire procedure. The products used can prolong or shorten the effect, which usually lasts up to 6 months, and with careful care, even up to 9 months! So focus on conscious hair care consisting of shampoos, conditioners and masks:
- Shampoo after nano-plasty should be suitable for daily shampooing after salon treatments. Ordinary, drugstore shampoo is out of the question - after using it, hair is guaranteed to start tangling and curling again, as smoothing agents are simply washed out. Shampoos should be natural in composition, without SLS, parabens, alcohol and salt.
- When choosing a conditioner you should pay attention to the fact that its composition did not contain silicones, and if your hair requires weighting, it is better to choose hair oils for this purpose. The conditioner helps to replace the substances that restore the strands, that is why it is so important to use it regularly together with the shampoo.
Also remember not to go to bed with wet hair. Hair drying should be done with a hair dryer after each washing, directing the airflow from top to bottom.
How to properly care for your hair at home
The basic rules of care:
- Cleansing the scalp and hair
- Using conditioners, masks and balms for the hair.
- Proper drying of hair.
- Usage of additional non-washing products.
The first stage: washing.
For this stage we use shampoo, each girl chooses which shampoo to use, but if your hair is thin, dry, brittle, colored, you regularly do keratin straightening or Botox procedures, then you should choose a shampoo without SLS.
Many girls pour shampoo directly on the head and at one point. You can not do so, because you risk drying out the hair, the consumption of funds increases. The correct way is to squeeze the maximum amount of detergent in the palm of your hand, lather and apply to the scalp, repeat if necessary. Hair soapy shampoo is not necessary!
After you wash your scalp, simply distribute the resulting foam from the roots of the hair on the entire length and rinse it off with water. This is enough to clean the hair. The procedure can be repeated twice, in case you do not wash your hair every day, but every other day.
Conditioners, Masks and Balms
Let's look at the difference between the two. The task of a conditioner is to close the scales after you wash your hair with shampoo, to make your hair visually beautiful, smooth and shiny.
Mask and balm differ in that their action time on the hair is usually longer than that of a conditioner, which makes them more geared toward care. The difference is that balms are usually used for crumbling and volume, while masks nourish and moisturize the hair.
Proper hair care consists of the following steps:
- Shampoo - conditioner - use normally;
- Shampoo - mask - conditioner - use once or twice a week.
In the second case, the conditioner is used to close the scales, as the mask does not have this property.
Hair drying
It is necessary to blow-dry the hair with a hair dryer. Predominantly with warm air, drying hair well, until it is completely dry, combing hair with a comb.
Do not:
- holding a towel on the head for more than 5 minutes;
- go to bed with a wet head;
- dry your hair naturally;
- tying and pinned wet hair.
It should be added that before drying hair you can use different care serums, fluids, so that afterwards you do not spoil the style. And after drying you can use oil-based non-washable products that have both caring properties, and just give a shine and crumbliness, which depends on their composition, as they may contain natural oils or silicones.
Care for damaged hair
To make your hair healthy and beautiful, first of all you need to provide proper and gentle care for it. To improve the effect, you can buy special products for the care of damaged hair in our store Brazil-Prof. Such products nourish dry and brittle hair types with vitamins and oils.
All the actions that will be applied to hair, for example: combing, styling or washing the head should be performed lightly, not quickly, massaging movements. When using shampoo, you should always use auxiliary products - conditioner and mask. Brushing wet hair will be much easier with hair conditioner.
If your hair looks dull and dry you can use products that contain substances such as provitamins and proteins. Some shampoos already contain such substances. It is recommended to restore thin and dry hair with products such as silk proteins, moisturizers, panthenol, aloe vera, glycerin. Special plant oils can be used to protect brittle hair. Cosmetic plant oils contain components of macadam, rosehip, Shea butter and argon oil. Using such means, the hair is covered with a protective film, the level of restoration of dry ends increases. That in the future will give a beautiful shine and a healthy look.
Most often hair is damaged by improper hair styling. When hair goes through the shampooing stage it swells and then becomes sensitive. It is not recommended to use the technique of intense hair wiping, it is better to twist the towel on the hair. The first combing is best done with a comb with sparse teeth. If there is free time, it is recommended to dry your hair without using a hair dryer. But if drying needs to be fast, it is best to use a medium speed and temperature on the hair dryer. It is recommended not to use styling tools very often. If the hair is already damaged - then the following coloring will cause additional damage. If you need to change the tone of your hair it is best to use special toning products. The damage from such products will be minimal.

It is important to take care of what we brush our hair with. There are many different combs on the market, but it is necessary to choose it individually, depending on the type of your hair and the comfort of use. There are combs with natural and artificial bristles, wooden combs or massage brushes with wooden teeth, combs made of unnatural materials.
What's the difference?
Natural or synthetic bristles due to the flexibility of their bristles do not tear the hair and do not have a toxic effect on the scalp. The wooden combs with rare teeth should be chosen by owners of dry and brittle hair, and they are also good for wet hair. It's important to choose a wooden comb with good quality, smooth and brushed surface. If you see sticking out chips on your wooden comb you can safely throw it away, it would not make friends with your long and well-groomed hair.
Combs made of plastic and other unnatural materials are good too. They are easy to clean, the sliding teeth will not pull the hair. If you go by trial and error, you're sure to find a comb that works for your hair care needs. It is worth paying attention to the position of hair during sleep, especially for girls with long and/or unruly hair. It is worth tying them into a loose braid, so as not to traumatize them with friction. Do not forget to protect your hair during hot and cold seasons.
