What is a Brazilian straightening?

It is a technique of Brazilian origin , a country where hair care is a very popular tradition. It consists of applying a keratin-based product from the roots to the ends of the hair. This treatment, using keratin: a natural protein, allows you to obtain smooth, supple, shiny and, above all, easy to style hair for several months.

The keratin injection is done strand by strand using straightening plates, to ensure its penetration into the hair fiber.

For what types of hair is Brazilian straightening recommended?

This treatment is applied to all hair types, but it is used, specifically, for people with curly or wavy hair, as well as for those who wish to treat their damaged or weakened hair. The application of this smoothing is not effective for hair that is too fine and too straight.

In fact, keratin, a natural component of hair, provides resistance to humidity, shine, strength, luster and makes it ideally straight and smooth.

How long does a Brazilian straightening treatment last?

You have decided to treat your hair with a Brazilian straightening treatment, but you are afraid that the soft and smooth appearance of your hair will not last long! Especially since your choice is based on its permanence over time. Rest assured! This straightening treatment is known for both its effectiveness and its duration over time.

How long does a Brazilian straightening treatment last? Various parameters affect the duration of the Brazilian straightening treatment. In reality, its effects last up to six months or more in some people, depending on the nature of the hair, the products used in the treatment and also on the way you maintain your hair after applying the straightening treatment.

Another factor that you must take into consideration in the duration, is the place of the treatment: obviously, a straightening carried out in professional hair salons lasts longer than one carried out at home.

During this period, your hair spontaneously regains its smooth appearance after each shampoo rinse.

This duration concerns the first smoothing, note that the effectiveness of Brazilian smoothing increases with time and with the frequencies of the application of this type of smoothing. You can then imagine the time you will save by applying Brazilian smoothing, compared to the time lost to smoothing your curly hair every day!

Furthermore, the effects begin to gradually disappear as you approach the end of this duration, usually after three to four months, to return to the natural, frizz-like or curl-like appearance of the hair.

How to maintain and extend the life of your Brazilian straightening treatment?

To ensure the longevity of the effects of Brazilian straightening , perfect application must be carried out by a specialist hairdresser, and several practices can be considered after the treatment:

  • First of all, make sure that the keratin products used during the Brazilian straightening treatment are preferably natural constituents, such as organic or plant-based keratin, and choose products without synthetic additives. In addition, opt for products with a high concentration of keratin, this helps to accentuate the effects of the straightening.
  • After the treatment, it is advisable not to wash your hair for three days after applying the Brazilian straightening treatment. This is because it is the time it takes for the keratin to set on the hair scales. It is also best to avoid any coloring for two weeks after the straightening treatment.
  • It is recommended to wash your hair using sulfate-free, silicone-free and paraben-free shampoos, and to favor keratin shampoos, in order to preserve the suppleness and shine of your hair and not to remove the keratin. Note that you should avoid washing your hair frequently, so as not to reduce the effects of the Brazilian straightening.
  • Additionally, it is best to apply a keratin mask to your hair, once a week for a few minutes, to maintain the duration of the straightening .
  • When doing Brazilian straightening, you must use hair products without sulfates, silicones, but also without salt, because this has the predisposition to open the hair scales. In addition, the products used must have a neutral PH so as not to attack the hair capillaries.

Furthermore, if you decide to go to the beach or the swimming pool, to protect your hair from the adverse effects of sea water (rich in sodium sulfate), swimming pool water (rich in chlorine), or the sun, it is recommended to treat your hair with specific protective care, such as a well-chosen day cream, and also to rinse it with fresh water as soon as you get out of the sea or swimming pool, so as not to lose the effects of the keratin on your hair, and damage the Brazilian straightening.

One last piece of advice, try to increase the frequency of Brazilian straightening treatments, because the more you apply this technique, the longer it lasts and your straightening can last up to eight or even nine months .

To conclude

Finally, Brazilian straightening is an excellent way to achieve dreamy hair that is shinier, smoother, without curls or frizz.
