The benefits and harms of Botox for hair

In the world of cosmetology, botox is usually understood as a means that helps get rid of mimic wrinkles under the influence of neurotoxins. However, there is also the so-called botox for the care of the appearance of hair, which has nothing to do with a neurotoxic cosmetic preparation.

The hair product in question is liquid serum, enriched with a vitamin-mineral complex, which improves the structure of the hair shaft, gives it smoothness and beautiful shine.

The use of the serum helps to achieve a visible and tangible effect immediately after application, but it is impossible to preserve the obtained result for a long time, therefore, the procedure for applying the product must be done regularly.

The active ingredient in any serum for hair botox is the substance Intrasilam, which penetrates deep into the hair and changes its structure.

Hair straightening and shine are obtained due to the action of Intrasilam on the natural keratin located in the hair shaft.

Getting under the scales of the hair shaft, the composition of the serum remains there for quite a long time, but after shampooing, it more and more begins to wash out, and the effect of the procedure passes over time.

Intrasilam does not have a health-improving effect on the hair shaft, its effect is more likely to be an aesthetic procedure and it is precisely for the beauty of the hair that it is carried out.

The use of the Botox procedure for hair is justified not only by the pursuit of beauty - the benefits of it are obvious if your hair has become dull, excessively frizzy, and they have damaged split ends.

In addition to vitamins and Intrasilam, the smoothing agent contains keratin, essential oils, elastins, peptides and hyaluronic acid.

When such an intensive agent is applied to the scalp, the drug penetrates into the hair follicle and saturates it with nutritious components, due to which the hair is not only significantly strengthened, but also grows better.

In addition, for dry hair, Botox helps stop breakage and shedding by deeply moisturizing your strands internally.

They comb better, behave more obediently when styling their hair, do not electrify, visually all irregularities are smoothed out on the hairline.

The serum also helps to smooth short, vellus young hair, which in the process of growth likes to stick out on top of the head in all directions.

In addition, the duration of the effect also depends on the structure of the hair shaft - porous hair quickly gives off the composition during shampooing.

It has also been repeatedly observed that from previously colored hair after the procedure, the composition is washed off faster than from natural strands.

In most cases, botox for hair does not damage the scalp and does not harm health after application, however, it should be remembered that each person's body is very individual, and the reaction to a particular chemical can be unpredictable.

In the case of allergies, the process of using the product is also dangerous because allergic manifestations can appear not only on the head, but also on the face and neck.

Sometimes the effects of Botox can manifest themselves in the form of dandruff or itchy scalp.

To do this, a drop of the product must be applied to the skin in the area of ​​the elbow and observe the reaction for 5-10 minutes. If redness and itching do not occur, then this remedy is suitable for you. Otherwise, the place of application of the product must be urgently rinsed under running water and taken orally with medications for allergies.

In order to be sure that botox does not spoil your curls, experts advise not to abuse the smoothing procedure and reuse it no earlier than 3 months after the previous session. More frequent use of the composition can dry out the hair.

Be especially careful when using Botox for hair after a recent lightening or perm.

The Botox procedure works well if your goal is to improve the appearance of your hair and eliminate minor imperfections.

The use of serum will pay off in the following cases:

• increased tendency to hair loss;
• split ends of the hair;
• restoration of the vitality of the strands after regular staining and the use of high temperatures during styling;
• strengthening and deepening the color of colored curls;
• elimination of porosity and increased fluffiness of hair strands;
• giving curls shine, tangible smoothness and elasticity.

Despite the undeniable advantages and positive effect of the hair smoothing procedure, before deciding on its implementation, you should consult a specialist.

The fact is that this serum may not be useful for every type of curl.

The Botox procedure for hair has contraindications:

• hair of short length and prone to high fat content, after treatment with serum, becomes heavier and will look unkempt;
• the smoothing composition is not suitable for bleached hair, since after the application of Botox, the strands are largely overdried and may begin to break off;
• after a chemical long-term perm, using the Botox procedure is not only impractical, but also dangerous - the hair will begin to actively fall out and break off in large quantities;
• during menstruation, as well as during pregnancy and lactation, the procedure is not performed, since its effectiveness will be very low;
• nervous stress, overwork, psychoemotional diseases do not contribute to the full effect of the nutritional composition on the treated strands;
• hair with a large predominance of gray hair due to age-related changes will not be able to perceive the active composition of the serum, and the procedure will not give a tangible effect;
• oily or dry seborrhea, psoriasis;
• pustular diseases and the presence of wounds on the scalp;
• allergy to serum components.

In the event that you are the happy owner of healthy and beautiful hair, then there is no point in performing the Botox smoothing procedure.

Even despite the vitamin composition of this drug, after a while after the procedure, your hair no longer looks as natural as it was before the botox treatment.

In order to preserve the resulting effect of the procedure as long as possible, it is necessary to properly care for your hair.

The rules for caring for the strands are simple and consist in observing the following points:

• shampoos should be washed with warm water using only good quality sulfate-free shampoos;
• the first 10-15 days after the treatment of the strands with the composition, it is not recommended to dry them with a hairdryer, perform thermal curling with a hot curling iron or straighten them with a hot iron;
• within 1 month after the application of Botox, hair coloring, permanent chemical or biowaving, as well as other procedures related to the effect of chemical preparations on the strands are not recommended;
• so that the Botox composition does not wash out from the structure of the hair shaft, it is necessary to try to reduce the contact of curls with water: you need to wash your hair only as it gets dirty, and also prevent the strands from getting wet in the rain or in the pool, especially in the first days after processing the strands;
• in order for the fabric of your curls to remain smooth and shiny, after processing the strands with botox, it is necessary to completely exclude the use of traumatic hairpins and clips, as well as the use of tight elastic bands and weaving of braids;
• it is important to ensure that wet hair dries naturally, and in a straightened form, without kinks and curls;
• after the serum treatment procedure, the hair requires careful handling: daily combing should be carried out with smooth, unhurried movements from the crown of the head to the ends of the strands, without jerking or combing.

In order for the effect of applying the smoothing serum to bring only positive results, choose a qualified specialist to perform this procedure.

In addition, a high-quality drug is the key to a successful result and the duration of its effect.

Beware of purchasing fake preparations for smoothing Botox, since after using low-quality products, you can thoroughly ruin your curls, and you will have to spend a lot of time, effort and money to restore them.
