Shampoos after botox for hair: types and features

Botox procedure for hair is one of the fastest modern ways to restore healthy shine and smoothness to curls. The healing cocktail enlivens even the most hopeless strands. In order to keep the resulting effect for a long time, it is important to properly care for your hair after Botox.

For some time, you will have to abandon the coloring and minimize the use of heat-shrink, hot hair dryer and tongs. In addition, you need to stock up on special shampoos without the content of chemically active ingredients. If you ignore this recommendation, the effect of treatment with a nourishing smoothing compound for hair restoration will completely disappear in a month. With the right care after applying Botox, the curls shine with a healthy sheen and flow beautifully for about 3 months.

In the environment there are a lot of aggressive factors that negatively affect the hair. Hair dries out and becomes brittle from UV radiation, dust, particles of dirt settle on them. All this worsens their condition. If you add to this the damage done in the process of frequent styling with thermal appliances and styling tools, it becomes clear that hair needs nutrition and support.

In addition, in many shampoos, which should (according to manufacturers) improve the condition of the hair, in fact only harm them. They are not suitable for hair after Botox, because they have the wrong composition. Especially those that contain harmful sulphates.

No need to excel, creating natural shampoos yourself. Mixtures of eggs and herbs are not stored for a long time, and their preparation takes time and effort. In addition, now there is such a huge selection of shampoos with a delicate composition. This, of course, is not natural kefir and chamomile decoction, but sulphates and other components harmful to hair are absent there.

To choose a quality sulfate-free, Cosmetologists advise to follow the following rules.

• Do not purchase detergent with silicone. This substance only creates the illusion of moisture, forming a film on the hair. In fact, the hair becomes heavier, which harms the state of the follicle.
• Do not experiment with the means of little-known brands. The spontaneous purchase of untested mass product may be derived from low-grade raw materials. Before making a purchase, it is important to examine the composition of the detergent. It should not be dyes, all kinds of preservatives and sulfates.
• You need to choose shampoo by hair type.

Sulfates (salts of sulfuric acid) are included in the composition of conventional shampoos as foaming agents. These substances are aggressive surfactants and wash the protective lipid layer from the hair. As a result, dry scalp appears, microcirculation of blood is disturbed under it, which results in hair loss. Manufacturers love to use this trick - the lush the foam, the better the hair will be washed. But this is not true. Foam is unable to remove dirt, and only creates the appearance of cleansing. Other components are involved in the removal of dirt.

Sulfates that are contained in shampoos can be found in the composition of dishwashing liquids and car washes. Chemical components adversely affect the hair after Botox treatment. The most aggressive are the following components.

• Ammonium laureth sulfate. Irritating to the skin of the head.
• Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. It has an aggressive effect on the skin and hair structure.
• Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate. The most dangerous of the elements, destroys the protein of botulinum toxin and increases dryness and subsequent fragility of hair.

Sulfates have the following “abilities” that do not benefit the health of hair:

• provoke allergic manifestations;
• dehydrate the skin on the head;
• destructive effect on the epidermis and hair follicles;
• Thinned curls.

With regular use for washing the hair of sulfate products, repeated frequent Botox courses will be needed, and even consultations with a trichologist and a dermatologist. And then follows a long-term hair treatment and the resumption of the normal state of the skin. The effect of Botox such shampoos neutralize instantly. Just one wash - and the curls noticeably lose their luster and smoothness. Using these tools is not only not advisable, but also harmful.

When switching to a sulfate-free shampoo, changes to the positive side will not keep you waiting: hair will accelerate growth and become more elastic, dandruff and itching will disappear.

Sulfate-free shampoos do not wash off useful substances with foam, which is why collagen and vitamin cocktail remain in the hair structure longer. Some consumers mistakenly believe that sulfate-free products do not have enough foam to flush out dirt. In fact, as already said, foam is almost not involved in the elimination of dust, grease and dirt from the hair. After the Botox procedure, you need to wash your hair with sulfate-free products with a certain acidity. Ideal - 4-5 pH.

If you use shampoos without the above components, a positive result from Botox on the hair will be obvious: they will not break, dandruff and itchiness will remain in the past, and the rate of growth of hair will accelerate. Sulfate-free shampoo cares for hair, without affecting its structure. It does not wash away the nutrients, and all the vitamins and collagen that Botox contains remain inside the hair.

Organic cosmetics for healthy hair are rich in natural extracts from coconut oil and glucose - Lauret sulfosuccinate, Lauril glucoside, Cocoglucoside. Therefore, such detergents perfectly manage to cope with various contaminants. Natural cosmetics for washing hair perfectly cleans the strands, without changing their structure and without harming the scalp.

The disadvantages of shampoos without harmful sulfates are still there. Let them be few, but knowing the other side of the coin will be useful:

• natural ingredients can cause severe allergies;
• when washing little foam is formed;
• less cost effective due to its liquid consistency;
• often you have to wash your hair again (especially after styling products);
• do not relieve dandruff;
• high cost with a small amount.

After the procedure of applying Botox, you can wash your hair in 2-3 days. This time is enough for the majority of useful substances to get inside the curls.

The first 1.5-2 weeks after the completion of the grooming procedure can not expose the hair to excessive mechanical stress. Combing strands is important to be extremely careful, preventing tangling. It is not recommended to apply in addition any strengthening compositions. After Botox, the strands are already enriched with all the necessary substances.

The taboo is imposed on high temperatures during laying, on any thermal effect such as curling or leveling with an iron.

On the street, be sure to cover your head with a seasonal hat. At home there will be frequent wet cleaning to minimize the amount of dust. Her sedimentation on the hair immediately after the Botox procedure will adversely affect the hair.

How long the result will last depends also on the mode and quality of the woman’s diet. For an attractive type of curls should be removed from the diet of fried and very fatty foods.
