Keratin hair reconstruction: the essence of the procedure and reviews

Keratin hair reconstruction has nothing to do with keratin hair straightening, this procedure does not change the hair structure like keratin straightening, it saturates the hair with keratin and other beneficial substances, that is, it restores hair from the inside.

Keratin hair reconstruction is a salon treatment that infuses hair with keratin, alpha-fruity acids, argan oil and other active ingredients.

Keratin is the main protein in the hair and scalp. Keratin compounds form complex and strong proteins that ensure the hair's resistance to chemical and physical influences, stretching and heat. In the process of vital activity, keratin is destroyed, and the hair becomes brittle, dull, dry and damaged. It is the keratin hair reconstruction that fills the hair with keratin, penetrating deep into the hair and sealing there, thereby restoring the hair structure.

Keratin hair reconstruction is most suitable for weakened damaged hair that is exposed to frequent thermal effects (hairdryer, curling iron, iron) and dyeing.

What is Keratin Hair Reconstruction?

The essence of the procedure is that the lost keratin is restored, the hair immediately after the procedure becomes alive, elastic and dense, and also a natural shine appears.

1. Duration of the procedure: 1-1.5 hours.
2. Cost: from 20 $
3. Result duration: 4-5 head washes.

The frequency of maintenance procedures for keratin reconstruction depends on the time interval between stains (one week before staining). In the case of undyed natural hair, the frequency of using maintenance procedures, on average, is 1 time in 2-3 months.

The procedure for keratin hair reconstruction may differ slightly depending on the brand that the salon operates on. But the general scheme is certain.

Step 1. First, you need to thoroughly cleanse your hair and scalp from all kinds of dirt, for this you use special cleaners (peeling) or deep cleansing shampoo.

Step 2. A special mask is applied to damp hair, which deeply regenerates the hair and saturates it with moisture.

Step 3. Hair is treated with special creams and lotions that enrich hair with essential nutrients, making hair elastic, strong and vibrant.

Step 4. At the final stage, the hair is coated with a special product to fix the result and protect the hair from harmful environmental influences.

Hair care after the procedure: try to use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo and after each wash, apply a mask or conditioner (moisturizing, nourishing, restoring) to the length of the hair.

After an unsuccessful exit from one color to another, the hair was in a terrible state, although I did it in the salon. They also recommended doing keratin hair reconstruction and at first they will repeat it every three weeks, and then do maintenance procedures every two months. I agreed to this procedure right away, because I couldn't look at my hair without tears.I have already done three procedures and the result is on the hair, they began to slide in my hands, and not look like straw. Of the minuses, I can note the cost of the procedure and the fact that it needs to be done often.

I did keratin hair restoration only once, the result was not impressive, perhaps because my hair was in good condition and never dyed. But, the master said that my hair needs such a procedure for the summer (protection from the sun, wind and sea water). I will no longer do the procedure, because I do not see the point in it and will most likely change the master.

I learned about keratin hair reconstruction from my hairdresser, decided to do it before dyeing and I did not regret it at all. Hair after dyeing is like silk (soft, elastic, obedient and very shiny), I think I will continue to do it, only the price confuses (700 UAH for medium-length hair).

Natalia, 27 years old

I was tormented by the fluffiness of my hair, especially if the weather is wet. My hair has been curly since childhood, when I went to college, I decided not to fight it, but just beautifully emphasize their waviness, so I began to take good care of them, I changed all the care to professional and periodically do different salon procedures. And the last few times I have been doing keratin hair reconstruction. Well, what can I say, of all the salon procedures, I like Happiness for hair the most, but there the cost is several times higher, that is, how much we pay, we get so much. But the procedure itself is not bad, the hair after it looks good for two or three weeks, and then it must be repeated, although the keratin reconstruction has a cumulative effect.
