4 Beauty Tips To Keep Your Tresses Healthy When You Opt For Chemical Hair Treatments

As the seasons change, so do the needs of one's hair. The arrival of hot and humid weather shows itself through tell-tale signs of change, such as increased dryness, frizz, and the dreaded surge in hair fall. It's a common struggle, as the combination of heat, humidity, and exposure to UV rays can wreak havoc on even the healthiest of locks. Gone are the days when sitting for hours wearing hair masks made of multiple kitchen ingredients are the top choice. Instead, today's women are increasingly prioritising quick application, safety for both hair and scalp, and long-lasting results. It's no wonder that it leads them to opt for chemical treatments in salons that deliver shiny, straight, and easily manageable hair. Today, there are an array of hair treatments promising one-time solutions for manageable locks, such as Keratin, Botox, Cysteine and more. More often than not, they claim to be safe and offer enduring results for your hair. But not all the treatments live up to their promises, which ends up resulting in hair fall, hair thinning or scalp allergies. Shailesh Moolya, National Technical Head at Godrej Professional weighs in on what to keep in mind when getting such hair treatments.

• Opt for hair treatments which are tailored to individual hair types and enriched with essential nutri-oils and shea butter as they deeply nourish the hair, resulting in a silky-smooth, frizz-free finish.
• Beyond the treatment name, research its ingredients and their effect on the hair. For example, Botosmooth is formaldehyde-free and long lasting, hence it doesn't damage the texture of hair when applied.
• Getting these treatments is the first step, however post care is as essential because that helps ensure it lasts longer and is more effective. Following the treatment, it's important to use salon recommended post-care products to restore hair nutrients and prevent damage.
• Protecting healthy hair from the sun's rays is crucial as your strands deserve essential proteins and shield from excessive heat exposure. Ensure you carry an umbrella, cap or scarf when the rays get too bright outdoors.
• Opting for a one-time solution through a hair treatment is a game-changer for women everywhere as it enhances confidence and simplifies one's daily routine. Make sure you follow these tips for your next treatment to allow it to work best for your hair.
