How to Make Your Brazilian Blowout Last Longer
A Brazilian Blowout from Therapy Hair Studio is designed to eliminate frizz and give you sleek, shiny hair. However, to maximize the results of your treatment, proper aftercare is crucial. By following these expert tips, you can extend the life of your Brazilian Blowout and keep your hair looking gorgeous for weeks.
Maintain Your Brazilian Blowout with the Right Aftercare Routine
The key to long-lasting results begins with proper Brazilian Blowout aftercare immediately after your treatment. Avoid washing your hair immediately to allow the Brazilian Blowout treatment to set properly. Additionally, avoid activities that could get your hair wet during the initial 48 hours. This will help the protective layer formed during the treatment stay intact, ensuring smooth, frizz-free hair.
Once you start washing your hair, switch to sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners. These gentle products help preserve the keratin treatment without stripping away the natural oils or causing damage to your hair strands. Washing your hair too frequently can reduce the lifespan of your blowout, so space out your washes to every few days.
Choose Hair Products That Complement Your Brazilian Blowout
Using the right hair products will help you maintain the sleekness of your Brazilian Blowout for as long as possible. It’s important to use a shampoo and conditioner specifically designed for Brazilian Blowouts to avoid damaging the hair and prolonging the results. Products that are free from sulfates and harsh chemicals will protect your hair and keep it smooth. Incorporating a leave-in conditioner into your routine will also lock in moisture and prevent your hair from becoming dry or frizzy.
For color-treated hair, opt for products that are specifically formulated to protect both the color and the effects of your blowout. Additionally, using dry shampoo between washes can help extend the time between washes, keeping your hair looking fresh. These products help keep hair smooth and hydrated, preventing frizz and dryness.
Protect Your Hair from Heat Damage
While your Brazilian Blowout treatment eliminates the need for heavy heat styling, you may still want to use tools like a flat iron or a blow dryer for touch-ups. Frequent use of hot styling tools can cause significant damage, particularly to Brazilian blow dry treatments. To avoid damaging your treated hair, always apply a heat protectant spray before using any heat styling tools.
Whenever possible, try to reduce your reliance on heat. If blow drying is necessary, use a round brush to enhance the smooth, sleek look. Sleeping on a silk pillowcase will help minimize friction and prevent hair from becoming tangled or frizzy overnight.
Deep Conditioning and Sun Protection
To keep your hair soft and frizz-free, make deep conditioning part of your weekly routine. Using a deep conditioning mask will help replenish moisture and keep your hair healthy. This is especially important if you have color-treated hair or are prone to dryness.
Protecting your hair from the sun is also essential. Prolonged sun exposure can damage the keratin treatment and leave your hair feeling dry and brittle. It can also lead to dull and damaged hair due to both heat and UV rays. Use products with UV protection or wear a hat when spending time outdoors to protect your hair from the harmful effects of the sun.
Avoid Common Pitfalls such as Chlorine and Frizzy Hair
Chlorinated water can strip your hair of the Brazilian Blowout formula, so it’s important to protect your hair when swimming. Apply a leave-in conditioner before entering the pool or, better yet, wear a swim cap to completely avoid chlorine exposure. This will help prevent your hair from becoming frizzy and maintain the sleekness of your blowout.
Simple Tips to Extend Your Blowout
- Limit washing your hair: Try to go longer between washes to preserve the treatment.
- Use a wide-tooth comb: Instead of a brush, use a wide-tooth comb to gently detangle your hair without causing breakage.
- Deep condition regularly: Weekly deep conditioning treatments are essential for maintaining softness and hydration.
- Protect your hair from UV rays: Products with UV protection or wearing a hat will help keep your hair healthy.
- Minimize heat styling: Avoid overusing heat styling tools like curling irons or flat irons to prevent weakening the treatment.
Your Brazilian Blowout can last up to 12 weeks when cared for properly. By using sulfate-free shampoos, protecting your hair from chlorine and UV rays, and incorporating deep conditioning treatments, you’ll extend the life of your blowout.
