Beautiful and healthy hair is the pride for any girl. Today, there are many ways that can quickly bring back to normal even weakened and weakened curls. Most procedures can be performed both in the salon by professionals and at home on their own. Glazing of hair with the help of professional tools or folk recipes also applies to such manipulations.
What it is?
Glazing hair - decorative professional care, which allows you to return curls density, beauty and healthy shine. Ceramides are present in the preparations for the procedure, which give such an effect. Under the influence of such molecules, damaged scales of hairs stick together. Hair looks healthier and thicker.
After applying a special drug, all hair cells are filled with ceramides. They penetrate the structure of the hair and create a natural defense against aggressive environmental influences. Ceramides belong to lipid molecules and are able to fill the entire external space on damaged hairs. As a result, the hair looks thicker, thicker and becomes more silky, smooth to the touch. Drugs reduce brittleness due to additional elasticity.
The procedure can be performed by a professional in a beauty salon or on your own at home. Various types of glazing can mask gray strands, slightly change or fix the shade of hair. To perform the procedure, special means of professional production are used. The result will please about 3-5 weeks. It all depends on how to care for hair after decorative treatment.
After this period, the effect of the procedure gradually fades, and the curls return to their original state. You can repeat the procedure no more than 3-4 times, then curls need to be given a rest. There are folk remedies for glazing hair, but experts do not guarantee such a long lasting result. The effect of this procedure can last until the next shampoo or a little longer.
A professional hair care procedure does not treat the bulbs, but only restores the appearance. It is suitable for healing, but allows you to maintain the attractiveness of curls. Contact the salon for glazing when the curls look particularly weak and dry.

The procedure involves the use of special means, therefore, has a number of contraindications. Refuse glazing with alopecia (hair loss, which leads to bald patches) and with diseases of the scalp. If under the hair there are abrasions, bruises or other injuries, then it is worth moving the visit to the salon.
