Keratin Treatment Aftercare: How to Make Your Smoothing Treatment Last Longer
A keratin treatment can make your life so much easier—but a little aftercare goes a long way.
Switch to Sulfate-Free Shampoo

Don’t Wash It More Than You Need To
The more often you shampoo, the faster your treatment naturally fades.
No need to stretch it miserably, but daily washing probably isn’t helping.
Summer Can Be Rough on Keratin
Saltwater, chlorine, and lots of sun exposure can shorten the life of your treatment.
If you’re at the beach or pool a lot, a quick rinse afterward helps.
Heat Protection Still Counts
Even though your hair feels smoother, hot tools can still do damage.
Always protect it.
