Important tips for Caring for your Keratin Treatment

Salon hair straightening is a simple, easy way to get pin-straight locks that are beautiful, elegant and easy to style. If you have had your hair salon straighted using either Keratin Treatment or Argil Therapy there are a few important things you should know to keep your hair looking its best.

Keratin Treatments are chemical-based hair treatments applied to straighten the hair. However, since the treatment continues to absorb after you leave the salon, you cannot wash your hair for 48-72 hours. After that, make sure you wash you your hair with a sodium & sulfate free shampoo and conditioner to avoid negative reactions. You should also avoid highlighting or coloring your hair during the 2 1/2 months a Keratin Treatment lasts so you don’t do significant damage to the color and texture of your hair.

If you’ve had Argil Therapy’s amino acid hair straightening treatment as a means of straightening your hair than the care routine you should follow is different. One of the many benefits of Argil Therapy is that it uses the natural ingredients of white clay and amino acids such as keratin, L-Cysteine, and Silicones to straighten and protect the hair. The use of natural ingredients means there are no harsh fumes or potential allergic reactions, and the formula is safe for everyone from young children to pregnant woman to try! 

With Argil Therapy you can wash your hair the same day in order to see the results and, if you desire, use permanent hair color after the hair treatment. An organic or natural, anti-frizz shampoo and conditioner will keep your hair looking and feeling its best for 6-8 months.
