The modern beauty industry is replete with innovations. One of the fashionable procedures is Botox for hair. We will tell you more about this method, as well as the consequences of its use for curls.
What it is?
Botox for hair is a comprehensive cosmetic product. It contains many different components that can act on the hair shaft. Also, this tool contains special substances that facilitate the penetration of all components inside the curls. So, they consist of special molecules called Intra-Silan.
The following components may also be present in complex preparations with Botox:
- lactic acid;
- keratin;
- Vitamin group: A, C, B, E;
- amino acid complex;
- essential oils;
- green tea and aloe vera extracts;
- elastin;
- proteins.
Could it be useful?
Botox has become widely popular in cosmetology. Cosmetologists use this tool, as a rule, to combat age-related changes. However, this cosmetic product not only helps to improve the appearance of facial skin, but also improves hair. So, this tool is recommended to be used to eliminate the following aesthetic problems of curls:
- loss of natural shine;
- increased dryness;
- severe weakening;
- hair damage due to blond or highlighting;
- the presence of strongly split ends.
Experts on the use of Botox note that the effect of the use of this tool largely depends on the initial condition of the hair. So, after using this cosmetic product, growth improves.This is due to the fact that the product contains a whole complex of biologically active substances that affect the condition of curls. It is worth noting that this action is possible if Botox is applied to the hair roots, and not just to the main length.
This product also helps to improve the condition of the scalp, which positively affects curls. So, after using this product, oily hair looks much better and delights with a beautiful natural shine. Botox is a tool that beauty industry experts recommend to use for girls who want to get a beautiful basal volume.
Due to the fact that the agent is able to penetrate the hair shaft and act favorably on it, there is a thickening of each hair on which this agent was applied.
The presence of a complex of biologically active substances also contributes to the hydration of the hair. So, the Botox treatment procedure is recommended for hair that looks dull and lifeless. After the first procedure, the curls will become more well-groomed and shiny. Specialists note that the effect is quite noticeable on the hair dyed in blond.
This tool helps and straighten hair a little. That is why girls with wavy strands often turn to such a procedure. However, when using Botox, it should be remembered that this procedure is not a method of straightening curls. The use of this tool helps only to stretch the hair a little, but not to make them straight completely. So, to get rid of small curls on the hair with the help of Botox alone will not work.
Use of this tool is also recommended for girls who have difficulty with the daily styling of their curls. Many beauties are familiar with such a problem as severe hair tangling. Also, styling difficulties can occur in girls with fluffy hair. The use of Botox helps to cope with such problems. In this case, the curls will look well-groomed for a long time.
Many girls dream of growing long beautiful hair. Curls below the shoulders can give an image of femininity and charm. However, this is a rather difficult task. Botox is a tool that curl care experts recommend for those who want to have long hair. The components contained in it not only improve the condition of the hair shaft, but also reduce the problem of a strong cross-section of the ends of the curls.
This action contributes to the fact that this cosmetic product can be used during hair regrowth.
Possible negative consequences
Botox, like any cosmetic procedure, has a number of certain limitations for carrying out. If there are contraindications to the use of such a method, then it should definitely be abandoned. This will protect the body from the development of extremely adverse consequences, which may cause further need for treatment.
So, you should not resort to the use of this cosmetic product when:
- allergies or individual intolerance to the drug, as well as all the components that make up its composition;
- the presence of damage to the scalp: small wounds, cuts, cracks in the skin;
- menses;
- a number of diseases of the nervous system;
- breastfeeding and during pregnancy.
Adverse effects from the application can occur in girls who have just dyed their hair. Many negative reviews testify to this. In order to avoid the appearance of adverse effects, the use of Botox immediately after hair coloring is not recommended. About when you can resort to the use of this tool, it is better to first consult with an experienced master.
The drug contains a whole complex of various substances that moisturize the hair.However, such an action may have a negative effect. In some cases, due to the supersaturation of the structure of the hair shaft with biologically active substances, the appearance of the curls worsens. This leads to the fact that the hair does not look shiny and moisturized, but dull and lifeless.
Botox can also cause increased dryness of hair. Often this adverse effect occurs when combining several procedures at once. So, curls will look lifeless if you combine the use of Botox and biowaving.
The use of such methods should be abandoned for girls with blond hair.
One of the unpleasant consequences of using Botox for curls is the appearance of skin itching. The severity of this adverse symptom may be different. Some girls who have tried Botox note that after holding their scalp itched just unbearably. Curl care specialists note that the appearance of such an adverse symptom can really be. Most often, its cause is an individual hypersensitivity of the scalp to the effects of various chemicals or too frequent use of this cosmetic product.
Another unpleasant manifestation after using Botox is dandruff. Usually this symptom is accompanied by the appearance of itchy skin. Such manifestations can develop even in girls who have not previously encountered seborrhea. If such adverse symptoms appeared after the use of Botox, then in this case it is better to consult a trichologist to select a set of tools to eliminate this delicate problem.
Allergic dermatitis is another possible negative consequence of using this cosmetic product. Such inflammation occurs due to the presence of an allergy to the product. In order to determine the likelihood of an allergic reaction, before using this product, doctors recommend that you conduct a test for the presence of individual sensitivity. Such an examination is recommended to be carried out if the product was independently purchased at a store and used at home.
Botox is a costly procedure from a financial point of view. Hair care specialists note that cosmetic products with a high-quality composition are not cheap. Girls who plan to carry out such hair restoration systematically should definitely pay attention to its cost. The timing of the repeated procedures is determined individually - as a rule, once every 3-3.5 months.
Too frequent holding can lead to the fact that the hair will lose its natural shine. This is due to the fact that a complex of biologically active components can have an effect that resembles "burning".
As a rule, this is due to the fact that this cosmetic product is used every 1.5-2 months or more often.
You can use cosmetic products with Botox at home. You can buy them if you wish in the stores of professional hair care products. At the same time, experts recommend choosing only high-quality products in company stores. Moreover, if there are any doubts about the quality of the cosmetic product, then it is better to refuse to buy it.
In order to minimize the development of any adverse effects after the use of Botox, it is recommended to do a hair care procedure with its use by a specialist. The master will be able to determine in what initial state the curls are, and also qualitatively carry out this procedure. It is recommended to choose a specialist with sufficient qualifications and experience.
