Diversity in hairstyles is something that all modern fashionable ladies and men desire. Some people achieve the look they desire by making changes to their hair. One of the ways to change appearance of hair is by straightening curly locks. The Brazilian Keratin treatment facilitates this variety by allowing hair to transition from curly to straight.
The origin of the system is reflected in its very name. The system's creator drew her inspiration from curl straightening methods that she observed in Brazil. Those methods included an intense system of blow drying the hair to remove curls temporarily.
The system that grew from this inspiration has four steps. Each steps plays a role in ensuring that the resulting hair is beautifully sleek and straight. The instructions and resources needed to apply the techniques of the system are found in a commercially sold kit.
The first step involves a cleansing of the hair. To do this you need a clarifying shampoo. The shampoo should be left on the hair for at least two minutes before being rinsed off. A conditioner should not be applied to the hair. To remove the excess moisture from the hair, a dry towel should be used.
After your hair has been cleansed it is time for the keratin solution to be applied. This is done by first shaking the container vigorously and pouring a small portion into a bowl for easy access. A special brush is then used to coat thinly sectioned hair with the solution starting at a half of an inch away from the scalp.
After the treatment has been allowed enough time to penetrate the hair, and this usually takes between ten to fifteen minutes, it is time for the third step. This step includes the application of heat using a blow dryer. A round brush or a paddle brush is used to assist the process.
The last step in the system is the sealing step. This is where the treatment is locked into the hair strands. In this stage a flat iron is used to apply heat to the sectioned hair. To do this, section the hair beginning at the back of your head and gradually work your way to the front. Make sure to go over each strand multiple times. The kit should tell you how many times is needed. Keep treated hair away from water for about two days.
Those who wish to use this regimen should note that it is a temporary one. This means that the treated hair will eventually revert to its former state unless the treatment is repeated periodically. Also exposure to the chlorine in pool water and the salt in sea water may undo the process. This is why it is important to avoid sitting and letting sea or pool water dry on your treated hair.
