Molecular hair restoration: what is it, the technique of performing
The modern industry offers various restorative techniques for damaged hair. One of them is molecular reduction. We will tell you in more detail what it is, and also consider the technique for carrying out this procedure.
The essence of the technique
This method provides for the restoration of the damaged hair structure at the molecular level through the use of a special substance - keratin. This structural protein is the basis for the formation of the hair shaft. Unfortunately, various influences can lead to damage to this component: temperature drops, frequent dyeing, perms and many other factors.
Due to the deep penetration of keratin, which is found in special preparations used for the molecular hair restoration procedure, its external properties change inside the hair shaft.
This effect contributes to the fact that the scales that are on the hair are smoothed out. Outwardly, this is manifested by the fact that the hair looks smoother and shinier.
Advantages
Molecular recovery is a procedure that allows you to achieve a really decent result. Already, as a rule, after a single application of this method, the appearance of the hair is improved. The use of cosmetic products designed to carry out molecular regeneration promotes deep hydration of the hairs.
The amino acids included in keratin have a complex effect on the structure of the hair shaft. Saturation of hair with these components contributes to the fact that curls grow faster.At the same time, the tips look more well-groomed and break off much less often.
Another advantage of this procedure is that it can be carried out both in a beauty salon and at home. Molecular repair cosmetic products are available from professional hair-care stores if desired.
Carrying out this method for curls at home helps to significantly save money, since you do not need to pay the master for the work.
This procedure contributes to:
- creating a special film on the hair that protects it from various negative influences;
- compaction of hairs without overburdening them;
- antistatic curls;
- reducing fluffiness;
- "Sealing" the cut ends;
- facilitating any styling;
- protection of colored hair from rapid washout of pigment.
Molecular recovery is not only possible for girls with straight hair. Beauties with wavy curls or curls can also use this method to improve the look of their hair. Curls after this procedure will be saved. This will make wavy hair look more textured.
Molecular restoration provides hair with a beautiful appearance for several months. After the procedure, the hair shines beautifully and is easy to comb, as a rule, even without the use of any styling aids. However, in order to maintain the achieved result after molecular hair restoration longer, experts in the care of curls recommend the use of special products.
For example, for washing your hair, a shampoo that does not contain aggressive chemical components that quickly "flushes" keratin out of the hair shaft is suitable.
How is the procedure carried out?
This hair restoration method requires an iron. It is better to choose a device that has the option to change the temperature regime. For this procedure, it is necessary that the iron can warm up up to 180 degrees. It is at this temperature regime that keratin and other components contained in products for molecular restoration can penetrate well into the hair shaft.
The procedure begins with washing your hair using a special shampoo. Hair care experts recommend combing your curls well before washing your hair. This will help all components to penetrate more easily.
After the hair has been washed, a molecular regeneration agent is applied to it with a special brush. It should be applied strand by strand. You can start applying from any area of the head (as convenient). The product with keratin should be applied evenly so that it can penetrate the entire length of the hair shaft.
Once you have a molecular repair agent on your hair, strands need to be "stretched" with an iron. Moreover, each strand, in order for all the components to penetrate well into the hair, is processed 4-5 times. This "fixing" helps the keratin from the product to begin to fill the inner space of the hair shaft, contributing to a change in its physical properties.
After the hair has been treated in this way, it should be left on for a few minutes. During this time, the curls will completely cool down, and all the components contained in products for molecular restoration will penetrate into the hairs. Then the hair is washed and styled.
Restrictions on holding
Molecular recovery is a procedure that has practically no contraindications. The funds that are used with this method have a good composition and have a beneficial effect on the condition of the curls. However, in some people, they can provoke the appearance of unwanted manifestations. So, it is recommended to refuse this procedure for people who have various injuries and wounds on the scalp.
Before using any cosmetic product, experts recommend that you definitely do an allergy test. If any allergic manifestations appear during preliminary testing, then it is recommended to refuse the use of such a cosmetic product.
And also experts do not recommend carrying out this procedure for people suffering from skin diseases of the scalp. In this case, before carrying out the procedure for molecular hair restoration it is better to first consult a dermatologist or trichologist.
Some girls believe that with this procedure they will be able to cope with dandruff. However, it is not. This procedure mainly helps to moisturize and nourish the hairs. It has practically no effect on the scalp.
Follow-up care
After the restoration, the curls look very beautiful. In order for the keratin to remain inside the hair shaft longer, proper care is necessary. So, for washing hair, it is recommended to use shampoos that do not contain sulfate additives. These chemical components can contribute to the rapid leaching of keratin, which will lead to an early loss of results.
After molecular restoration, the beautiful volume of the hairstyle is preserved. It can even last up to 1-1.5 months, and in some cases even longer. If you take care of the curls in the future with the help of special means rich in keratin, then you can save the achieved result for six months.
To preserve the beautiful natural shine of the hair after the molecular restoration, it is recommended to use special conditioner balms. You can keep the smoothness with the help of caring masks containing keratin.
It is important to remember that you should not abuse it with the use of such cosmetic products. So, masks with keratin are recommended to be used no more than once a week.
Reviews
Opinions about molecular hair restoration vary. So, some girls note that through this method they managed to significantly improve the appearance of their hair. At the same time, they also note that the curls after molecular restoration became smooth and acquired a natural attractive shine.
There are also negative opinions. In some reviews, there is a mention that the procedure performed practically did not contribute to the improvement of the hair structure. Such negative reviews are found, as a rule, from beauties with blonde hair.
Experts note that it will not be possible to restore damaged curls after frequent discoloration through one procedure. In this case, it may be necessary to re-conduct, as well as the use of other techniques.
