Bonding, straightening, keratin Hair Botox Treatment in trend

Bonding, straightening, keratin… these are all the hair treatments which people take to enhance the beauty of hair. But these days, these treatments have been replaced by another advanced technique, that is Hair Botox. On hearing the name of Botox, it might have come to your mind that it is an injection procedure but there is nothing like that in it.

This is a treatment that coats the hair fibers with filler i.e. keratin. This is also called formaldehyde-free treatment. In this process, not much chemical is used but such things are used which, apart from being beneficial for the hair, make them healthy and shiny. How is it done and how does it work on hair?

Dermatologist Dr. Ruchi Aggarwal says that like skin botox, hair botox is an anti-aging treatment in which collagen, vitamin B5 and E are given. Apart from slowing down the aging process of hair, this treatment also repairs already damaged hair from within. In this, injections are not used like skin botox, but a protein conditioning agent is applied on the hair.

It prevents sweating in the hair roots, due to which the hair does not look sticky but gives them a bouncy look. She tells that this treatment is given from the roots of the hair till the ends of the hair. After applying it, it is left on for about 45 minutes. A sulphate free cleanser is used to wash off the Botox and then the hair is dried with a dryer.

Beautician Aarti Singh says this is formaldehyde-free and chemical-free condition treatment. Chemicals like caviar oil, vitamin B-5, vitamin E and BONT-L peptide are mixed as per requirement and applied on the hair. Actually, in this a protein-based solution is applied on wet hair, which helps in forming a protective layer around the hair.

Also, helps in repairing damaged and weak hair. She says that getting it done two to three times a year is enough. Overuse can cause hair to become thin and lifeless, in addition to breakage.
