One of the more popular salon hair treatments in the last ten years is Keratin Complex, which is a treatment intended for frizzy, unruly, and tangled hair. The chemical procedure, popularly known as Brazilian Blowout and Brazilian Keratin, can make your tresses look shiny and silky smooth for at least six months. But is it as good as they say it is? Let’s get to know what Keratin Complex is all about, including the good, bad, and the ugly.
The “need to know”
Many people come to the salon for whichever treatment is the “talk of the town”, not knowing exactly how it will impact their hair. Some go home smiling from ear to ear while others are disappointed. Some even suffer from disasters worthy of pressing hairdressing claims. The damage that could scar one’s confidence and self-esteem should not be taken sitting down. One has to be liable for another person’s agony, especially if it was caused by a lack of skill (as claimed) or negligence. That’s what a personal injury law firm is here for: to protect people’s interest against other people’s act or failure to act.
It is good to know that the law could cover for you if anything goes horribly wrong while you are sitting on the salon chair. But it is also better to be safe than sorry. Thus, understanding exactly what you are getting yourself into is a good start for keeping yourself safe against anything that could go wrong while the hairdresser is tinkering with your locks.
The potential benefits
Keratin treatment is a way to end frizzy hair so you can enjoy fuss-free hair. With its glow and silky shine, you will not have trouble washing, styling, managing, and maintaining your mane. As long as you do not wash your hair too often (more than three times a week), you can enjoy the effect of keratin treatment for at least six months. It is such a sweet deal if you ask us.
The potential risks
Apart from the benefits mentioned, there are also a couple of potential risks that you need to be wary of. A keratin treatment uses chemicals that could cause allergic reactions when it comes in contact with your skin. Some procedures may also contain formaldehyde, an ingredient that could cause headaches, light-headedness, watery eyes, and skin irritation. Moreover, it can cause serious trouble to one’s health when inhaled. The strength of the chemical and the entire procedure may take a toll on your hair. If the hairstylist is not careful, your hair could suffer severe damages, including breakage and hair fall. Over straightening may also cause your hair to become limp and greasy.
With several risks, would it still be advisable to go for a keratin treatment and aim to have that bouncy, glossy hair? Yes, but you have to do it with caution. You need to go to your trusted salon and hairdresser, who would perform patch testing and consultation before the actual treatment. Doing so would help determine if you are a good candidate for it.
