Preparation before smoothing

Hair preparation is a crucial step before applying the Brazilian straightening treatment. It ensures better absorption of the product.

  1. Deep Cleansing : Start by using a clarifying shampoo to remove any product buildup and open the hair cuticles. This allows the smoothing product to penetrate more effectively.

  2. Hydration : About a week before straightening, apply a deep hydrating treatment or mask. This prepares your hair by strengthening it before the chemical treatment.

  3. Avoid Chemicals : Avoid coloring or other chemical treatments just before getting a Brazilian blowout.

Choosing and applying Brazilian straightening

The success of your Brazilian straightening depends greatly on the product chosen and its application.

  1. Product Selection : Select a Brazilian straightening treatment that is suited to your hair type. Prioritize formulations enriched with keratin and without formaldehyde for their safety and effectiveness.
    For those who want to perform their Brazilian straightening from the comfort of their own home, our My Keralova formaldehyde-free straightening kit is the ideal solution. Designed to adapt to all hair types, this kit makes it much easier to perform a Brazilian straightening at home. It includes everything you need to achieve a flawless result, from the clarifying shampoo to the nourishing shampoo, ensuring perfect straightening.

  2. Meticulous Application : Divide your hair into thin sections. Apply the product evenly from root to tip, avoiding the scalp. Use gloves and a brush for precise application.

Pause and rinse time

The pause time allows the smoothing product to work properly.

  1. Exposure Time : Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, generally between 30 and 45 minutes.

  2. Rinse : Rinse your hair with lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Avoid using shampoos or conditioners while rinsing.

Drying and smoothing with heat

Heat is essential to seal the treatment into the hair and straighten it effectively.

  1. Precise Drying : Dry your hair with a hair dryer on medium heat, smoothing it with a brush.

  2. Flat Iron Straightening : Use a flat iron straightener between 180°C and 220°C on small strands. This step seals the keratin in the hair fiber. Opt for smooth and wide plates for better heat distribution. For fine or fragile hair, ceramic plates are recommended because they protect the hair better.

Post-Smoothing Care

Post-Smoothing Care: Prolong the Effect of Your Treatment

Post-smoothing care is crucial to not only prolong the effect of the treatment but also to maintain the health and beauty of your hair. Here are detailed tips to optimize your smoothing care.

Suitable Shampoos

Choosing the right shampoo is essential after a Brazilian straightening treatment.

  • Sulfate-Free : Opt for sulfate-free shampoos. Sulfates can actually remove the keratin layer, reducing the lifespan of your straightening treatment.
  • Gentle Formulations : Choose gentle products that cleanse without damaging the hair fiber. They help maintain the smoothing effect for longer.
  • Regular Hydration : Adequate hydration is essential for healthy, shiny hair.
  • Moisturizing Masks : Incorporate moisturizing hair masks into your weekly routine. Choose products enriched with nourishing agents such as natural oils or shea butter.
  • Nourishing Oils : Hair oils, such as argan or coconut oil, provide deep hydration and help maintain your hair's shine.

Post-Smoothing Keratin Treatment

After a Brazilian blowout, keratin products are extremely beneficial as they complement and enhance the effect of the treatment. The Brazilian blowout itself infuses keratin, a natural protein, into the hair, smoothing the cuticles and reducing frizz. By using keratin-enriched products, you prolong the smoothing effect, help maintain the hair’s structure and strength, and provide additional protection against external aggressors. These products help to retain moisture, increase shine, and ensure that hair remains smooth and manageable for longer, maximizing the benefits of the Brazilian blowout.

  • Keratin Shampoo : Use a keratin-infused shampoo to enhance the smoothing effect and provide extra protection.
  • Keratin Conditioner : A keratin-enriched conditioner helps detangle hair while providing an extra dose of this vital compound.
  • Keratin Mask : A keratin hair mask, used once or twice a week, can help repair and strengthen the hair fiber.
  • Keratin Serum : A keratin serum provides a smooth finish and helps protect hair from external aggressions.
  • Keratin Leave-In : A leave-in keratin treatment provides daily protection and makes styling easier, while maintaining a smooth, silky appearance.

By incorporating these keratin-based post-straightening treatments into your routine, you will not only maximize the life of your straightening, but you will also contribute to the health and vitality of your hair.

Marc Grays offers a range of Keratin treatments with our partner Kerargan to maintain your straightening and obtain a long-lasting and professional result.

Additional Tips

A few additional tips can improve and prolong the effects of your straightening.

  1. Wash Spacing : Limit washes to preserve the treatment longer.

  2. Heat Protection : Always use a heat protectant before exposing yourself to heat.

  3. Trimming the ends : Trimming the ends regularly promotes the health of your hair and the effectiveness of the straightening treatment.

  4. Avoid Humidity : Immediately after smoothing, avoid excessive humidity to allow the treatment to set properly.

  5. Gentle Brushing : Use a soft brush to avoid breaking the hair fiber.

  6. Smoothing Kit : Opt for simplicity and economy at home. These kits are designed to facilitate the smoothing process, making the experience as simple as possible, while avoiding the high costs associated with hair salons, which can reach up to €300.

Brazilian straightening, when done with care and expertise, transforms hair into a beautiful, smooth and shiny mane. By following these tips and techniques, you will not only be able to achieve impressive results, but also maintain the quality of your straightening in the long term. Remember that patience and regular care are the keys to a successful and long-lasting straightening.

Est ce que le lissage au fer est obligatoire pour fixer ou un brushing peut suffit?
