After straightening
How to dribble the root other than the tips
Since most of the time getting rid of the straightened part means that the strands will be short, some women are reluctant to cut it, as they cannot identify with the look. In this case, it is advisable to cut it slowly. To get around the stretched strands, abuse finishers such as ointment or mousse and use curling irons to create waves. Another option is to keep the root smooth with a flat iron and invest in accessories that camouflage the difference between the parts of the hair.
The process of “returning the curls” can take a while, as the threads only grow one centimeter a month and will require patience, as well as periodic visits to the salon to cut the stretched ends, as happened with journalist Jamille Bastos: “I’m not straightening hair for a year and a half and now it’s a little to go. I got tired of looking broken because of the flat iron and she wouldn’t let my hair grow, by the time it reached my shoulder, it was so worn out that it needed to be cut. , I started to just leave-in and knead, and every now and then go to the curling iron to define the curls. Today I have love-hate days like everyone else does, but it’s a great feeling to know this is my hair, no no change,” he said.
Permanent does not form new curls, it only weakens the strands
Straightening acts on the disulfide bridges, which are responsible for shaping the strands and binding the proteins found in the hair shaft. The greater the number of links, the more curly the hair becomes, which means that when the straightening substances break these links, the strands are smooth and no longer return to their original shape, leaving an irreversible effect. The perm is done in the same way as the hair straightening, but contrary to what it may seem, it will not form new curls in this already altered hair fiber. Excess chemical will weaken the hair fiber, causing porosity and shedding in some cases.
Hydrate a lot so that the hair grows stronger
It is important to keep the strands hydrated during the growth process because curly hair, especially those with tighter waves, has more difficulty in carrying oil from the scalp to the ends of the strands. As your hair will be weakened by the chemical straightening, invest in deep hydration in the salon and at home to keep your hair healthy and shiny.
