Keratin Treatments for Soft, Healthy-Looking Hair

If you’re having trouble taming the winter frizz, or if you just want straight, soft hair without the hassle of the flatiron every morning, keratin treatments may be perfect for you! What exactly is a keratin treatment, and what does it do? Here are the facts:

Keratin is a protein that makes up the structure of hair, nails, and skin. It makes these tissues strong and protects some cells, like those on the outer layer of your skin, from damage and stress.

Keratin is a crucial component of healthy hair. Over time, the keratin in your hair can become damaged by exposure to the environment or prolonged use of hot styling tools. When hair is damaged, the cells in each strand no longer hold their shape, causing it to appear dry and frizzy and making it prone to tangles.

Keratin treatments infuse this protein into each strand, bonding those cells together and smoothing out the surface. Hair appears smooth, shiny and frizz-free! Other products in the treatment straighten your hair, leaving it glossy smooth and luxurious.

There are many benefits to keratin treatments. Because they last several months, they save a ton of time each morning! You won’t have to fight the flatiron every morning, and most people don’t even need to blow-dry, since styling keratin-treated hair is so much easier.

As a plus, avoiding these heated styling tools helps keep your hair healthier in the long run, since heat can cause the most damage to your hair.

Taming the frizz is reason enough to give keratin treatments a try, but an added benefit is enhanced color for both natural and color-treated hair. Smooth strands better reflect light, adding more depth to any color. And for color-treated hair, keratin treatments seal in that color, helping it last longer.
