Extending The Straight Look With Keratin Treatment Shampoo And Conditioner

By Joanna Walsh


Keratin treatment is all the rage these days as one of the most impressive ways to achieve silky sleek straight hair. Hair that is treated with a unique straightening solution that requires special care to maintain its sleek silky texture and appearance. This is why stylists recommend keratin treatment shampoo and conditioner to their clients who have had the treatment applied to their hair.

This type of treated hair has been temporarily straightened using a special solution. The solution is called Keratin and is naturally found in the human body as it is the building material for body parts such as hair and fingernails. To make the solution, scientists extract the substance from natural sources such as the wool of sheep and use it to make a solution that bonds with each hair strand to create a straightening effect.

The newly straightened hairstyle is a temporary one and to make it last longer there are several precautions that must be taken. One of them is avoiding sea or pool water since the chlorine and salt content will remove the special straightening solution from the hair. If immersion into these types of water is unavoidable then the hair must be washed with plain water as soon as possible.

Shampoos and conditioners that are designed for Keratin treated hair help to keep hair straight for longer. They are sulfate free and is important this important since sulfates strip the hair strands. If sulfate is in the shampoo then the hair may be stripped of the keratin solution that has been sealed into it.

Another special feature of these hair cleansing products is the fact that sodium does not occur in the ingredient lists. Sodium acts as a thickener of the hair strand and, as such, defeats the purpose of this hair straightening system as the heat application effectively reduces the sizes of the strands. When the thickness of the strands is restored, the curls and waves are more likely to return prematurely. Additionally, the sodium will cause the straightening solution to dissolve, effectively undoing the style.

These hair care products are sulfate and sodium free but there is also another feature that makes them ideal for hair that is styled in this manner. This feature is the inclusion of Keratin on their ingredients list. This special ingredient helps the products to play a supportive role in maintaining the hair style.

It is important to look out for the same features in other products as well. Gels, hair sprays and moisturizers are just a few of the products that are used after hair has been treated. Ensuring that they are free of the style reversing ingredients and that they include the style maintaining ingredients is one important step in ensuring that your style produces maximum results and that, as a result, you get the most for your money.

Most if not all persons who get this straight sleek hairstyle, desire to have it last for as long as possible. The right shampoos and conditioners will help you to get the most out of your new hair style. Frizz will be kept at bay and your hair will maintain its sleek silky look for a longer period.
