Want to buy straight human hair wigs/extensions or want to straighten your naturally curly hair wigs or bundles, but worry that it won’t keep the beautiful smoothing style for a long time? Discover our 3 valuable tips to maintain your freshly smoothed hair.
3 Tips to Maintain Your Human Hair Weave/Wig after Straightening
When buying wigs or extensions, you can pick up straight human hair directly to get natural vertical beauty. While if you choose a 100% virgin wave hair or curly hair similar to the one provided by Honest Hair Factory, it means that you can straighten it when you are tired of curly hairstyles without damaging the original beauty. And by following our care tips below, you will be able to continue this beauty smoothly for the duration you want.
Tip 1: Wash Your Hair With Sulfate-Free Shampoo
Sulfate is a molecule that allows the shampoo to foam but in the long term can actually be irritating and drying out to the hair and scalp. So to take care of your human hair wig or bundles, you prefer to wash it with a sulfate-free shampoo that will not attack either the hair fiber or the keratin it contains. As well as the one reinjected thanks to smoothing. We also talk about low-poo, a trend that consists of giving up conventional shampoos and integrating into your hair routine products without silicone or paraben, or sulfate for healthier hair.
The right product: Biolage Cleansing Conditioners. To clean and treat all types of human hair, Biolage launched a few months ago its low-poo formulated with ingredients of natural origin (such as Acai or Pomegranate) and which contain fewer surfactants and more care agents, all obviously without paraben, sulfate, and silicone.
Tip 2: Make A Keratin Mask
If Brazilian hair straightening is a keratin-based treatment that relaxes the hair fiber to make it more flexible and easier to style, Japanese hair straightening is a semi-permanent straightening technique that modifies the internal structure of the hair. Damaged, the hair then needs nourishing and moisturizing care. 1 to 2 times a week, we make a keratin mask that will protect the hair fiber.
The right product: the Pro-Keratin Refill mask from L'Oréal Professionnel repairs damaged hair thanks to the innovative Pro-Keratine & Incell technology. Pro-Keratine (non-animal keratin) has the power to attach to the surface of the hair fiber to rebuild its natural shield and offer daily protection. As for Incell, this molecule penetrates deep inside the hair to fill fragile areas and protect the inside of the hair fiber.
Tips 3: Nourish Your Hair With Oil
Because any smoothing weakens the hair, it is then necessary to moisturize them daily with a hair oil that will have the power to nourish the hair in depth by penetrating the heart of the hair fiber for optimal hydration. Avocado oil, amla oil, castor oil... the oils moisturize and nourish the hair without weighing it down or leaving an unpleasant greasy rendering.
The Right Product: Amla Oil Wonders from Matrix. Used in India by women with very long hair during Ayurvedic treatments, Amla Oil has fortifying and protective virtues. This strengthens the hair fiber from the inside and protects the hair from premature breaking. Application after application, the hair is stronger, softer and shiny. To be used in front shampoo or in care without rinsing.
