The first 72 hours after smoothening decide how sleek your results stay. Follow simple steps for months of straight, manageable hair.
After hair smoothening, keep hair straight and dry for 48–72 hours (no washing, tying or clipping), then use sulphate-free shampoo, limit heat, avoid chlorine and salt water, and maintain with hair spas for 4–6 months of sleek results.
Keep hair down, straight and dry. Avoid washing, tying, clipping, tucking behind ears, and heavy sweating so the smoothening sets fully.
Use sulphate-free, salt-free shampoo and conditioner, wash less frequently, always use heat protectant, and avoid chlorinated pools and sea water.
Monthly hydrating spas and leave-in serums keep hair glossy and straight. Avoid clarifying shampoos that strip the treatment.
