What it is?
Classic keratinization is the application of a special compound to the strands, based on natural keratin. This substance penetrates into the deep layers of the hair, leaving a significant part on its surface. The result is a special protective film with a slight sheen. To enhance the activation of substances included in the preparation, the hair is treated with a hot ironing tool before the procedure starts. high temperature has a positive effect on keratin absorption. Therefore, even with the treatment can not do without heat exposure. Unlike thermokeratin recovery, which does not require additional heating devices.
The reason is the unique composition. The substance combines with a special thermoactivator, as a result, the necessary heat is generated, due to which deep penetration and rapid absorption of useful elements takes place.
Thermokeratin recovery is a medical procedure that fills the entire lack of valuable components, saturating hairs with keratin, amino acids, vitamins. In addition, the damaged layer of the cuticle is restored on the outer surface of the curls, the scales are smoothed, and then a healthy shine and smoothness of the curls appear.

Care after the procedure
Subsequent care is an important step in maintaining the effect of a salon or home restoration procedure. A common mistake is that some women continue to use shampoos / balms for daily washing, however, such products are able to wash out all the protein, as well as destroy the protective film on the surface of the strands.

Professional masters advise to pay attention to shampoos without sulfates and parabens. The range of companies often has a line for care after thermokeratin treatment. By the way, shampoos are sold in large volumes, so they are slowly consumed.
In addition to the basic means, the mask perfectly manifests itself in combination with keratin water - judging by the feedback from the girls, such a duet (2-3 times a week) creates real miracles with hair - it does not weigh down, makes it soft and silky.
