The benefits and harms of Botox for hair

By botox in the world of cosmetology it is customary to understand a tool that helps get rid of facial wrinkles under the influence of neurotoxins. However, there is also the so-called Botox for hair appearance care, which has nothing to do with a neurotoxic cosmetic product.

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 a beautiful shine.

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

The active ingredient in the composition of any serum for Botox hair is the substance intrasil, which penetrates deep into the hair and changes its structure.

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

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

Intrasil does not have a healing effect on the hair shaft, its effect most likely relates to the aesthetic procedure and is carried out precisely for the beauty of the hair.

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

The composition of the smoothing preparation, in addition to vitamins and intrasilam, includes keratin, essential oils, elastins, peptides and hyaluronic acid.

When applying such an intensive product to the scalp, the drug penetrates the hair follicle and saturates it with nutrient components, so that the hair not only significantly strengthens, but also grows better.

In addition, with overdried hair, Botox helps to stop their fragility and loss due to deep internal moisturizing of your locks.

They comb better, behave more obediently when styling in a hairstyle, do not electrify, visually smooth out all the irregularities on the hair sheet.

The serum also helps smooth short, fluffy young hair, which during growth loves to stick out on the 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 gives off the composition faster while washing the hair.

It has also been repeatedly noted that with previously dyed hair after the procedure, the composition is washed off faster than with natural strands.

In most cases, Botox for hair does not spoil the scalp and does not harm health after use, however, it should be remembered that the body of each person is very individual, and the reaction to a particular chemical substance 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, neck.

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

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

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.

Particular care must be taken to use Botox for hair after a recent lightening or perming.

Application of the Botox procedure gives good results if your goal is to improve the appearance of the hair and eliminate their small imperfections.

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

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

Despite the indisputable advantages and the positive effect of a smoothing hair procedure, before deciding to perform it, you need to consult a specialist.

The fact is that not for each type of curls this serum may be useful.

Botox hair procedure has contraindications:

• hair of short length and having a tendency to increased fat content, after processing with serum, become heavier and will look untidy;
• the smoothing composition is not suitable for bleached hair, since after applying Botox, the strands are largely dry and can begin to break off;
• after a long-term chemical perm, using the Botox procedure is not only impractical, but also dangerous - the hair will 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 processed strands;
• hair with a large prevalence 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 that case, if you are a happy owner of healthy and beautiful hair, then it makes no sense to perform a smoothing Botox procedure.

Even despite the vitamin composition of this drug, after a while after the procedure your hair does not look as naturalistic as it was before Botox treatment.

In order to keep the resulting effect from the procedure as long as possible, it is necessary to properly care for the hair.

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

• shampooing should be done with warm water using only good quality sulfate-free shampoos;
• the first 10-15 days after processing the strands with the composition, it is not recommended to dry them with a hairdryer, perform heat curling with a hot curling iron or straighten with a hot iron;
• within 1 month after the use of Botox, hair coloring, chemical permanent or bio-curling, as well as other procedures associated with exposure to strands with chemical preparations are not recommended;
• so that the Botox composition is not washed out of 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 becomes dirty, and also do not allow the locks to get wet in the rain or in the pool, especially in the first days after processing the locks;
• in order to keep the fabric of your curls smooth and shiny, after treatment with strands of Botox, it is necessary to completely exclude the use of traumatic hair clips and clips, as well as the use of tight elastic bands and weaving braids;
• it is important to ensure that wet hair is dried naturally, and in a straightened form, without creases and twists;
• After the treatment with serum, the hair requires careful handling: daily combing should be carried out by smooth unhurried movements from the crown of the head to the ends of the strands, without jerking and combing.

To ensure that the effect of applying smoothing serum brings only positive results, choose a qualified specialist to perform this procedure.

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

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