After trying various ways to deal with hair loss but to no avail, you may be at a loss to find other ways. There is one new way that is believed to be able to deal with hair loss, namely hair botox. Yes! Not only facial appearance can be rejuvenated with Botox, your hair can too. However, is it really effective?
What is Botox hair for?
The purpose of applying Botox to hair is to strengthen the strands by replenishing the hair fibers that are lost with age. This treatment can repair areas of the hair shaft that are already brittle, cracked, or thin hair. That's why Botox can also make hair appear thicker, smoother, and radiant healthy.
Unlike facial botox injections that use botulinum toxin that has been tamed, the ingredients for hair botox use many different ingredients. Commonly these are caviar oil, BONT-L peptides, vitamin B5, vitamin E, and collagen.
Who can do Botox for hair?
Botox is believed to be effective in treating various common hair problems, such as:
- Split ends
- Thinning hair, less volume (limp), or dull color
- Damaged hair after smoothing or rebonding
In general, Botox is considered safe for all hair types, including curly hair. Can also be used as a treatment before straightening hair to keep it strong.
How does it work?
Hair Botox is done by coating each strand of your hair with a special cream or shampoo to open the hair cuticles. Then, your scalp will be massaged to make the product even more soaked. The hair will be left wet for 20-90 minutes and then dried or may also be ironed with a keratin-filled filler.
How effective is hair botox?
Hair Botox is quite popular lately. So, not infrequently there are many home salons that offer Botox services as cheap as possible to attract customers.
Even so, it is actually difficult to measure how effective and safe this treatment method is for treating various hair problems. There is not much scientific evidence that focuses research on the effectiveness and true risks of hair botox.
Just in case and in order to get the best results, you should visit a hair salon that has proven quality of service. Botox hair results usually last up to 2-4 months, although it can vary from person to person. Use a low-sulfate shampoo to make the botox results in your hair last longer.
