How Long Does Your Keratin Treatment Last?
Ever wonder what the secret is to smooth, shiny hair? Well, the answer is keratin treatments! A keratin treatment is a smoothing treatment that seals the hair cuticle with a coating of protein that eliminates frizz and adds softness and shine. The process can take anywhere between 1 and 3 hours depending on your hair type and length. We can say with certainty that it is worth every minute you’re in the chair.
How Long Does Your Keratin Treatment Last?
You may be asking yourself, how long does keratin treatment last? At Jean Paul Spa and Salons, we recommend treatments be done every 4-6 months depending on your hair needs. The length of time your keratin treatment lasts depends on a couple factors that we have outlined here:
- How often you wash your hair.
As long as you care for a keratin treatment by not washing your hair too frequently then your keratin treatment can last up to 6 months. We recommend washing your hair no more than 2-3 times a week.
- What you sleep on.
It is recommended that you change your pillowcase from cotton to silk and this will help make your keratin treatment last longer. For those who suffer from dry damaged hair cotton sheets produces friction that causes frizz and split ends. When you invest in a keratin treatment you want to minimize damage as much as possible to extend the life of your treatment.
- Use specialized hair products.
It’s important to use the proper hair products to make your keratin treatments last. Some of our favorite products include:
- Bumble & Bumble HIO Shampoo & Conditioner
- Oribe Beautiful Color Shampoo & Conditioner
- Follow proper care instructions.
We live in an area surrounded by freshwater lakes and rivers, but if you decide to head to the ocean, make sure you don’t let the salty ocean water damage your hair. Keeping your locks away from salt water can make your keratin treatment last longer.
After you decide to change your life with a keratin treatment, it’s important to know how long your keratin treatment will last and what you can do to prolong the time between treatments.
