Hair Botox: What is it?
Hair botox (don’t worry, no needles involved) is a deep conditioning treatment that coats and hydrates each hair strand with a filler. It usually consists of a concentrate that contains all natural ingredients like caviar oil, for example. It helps to reduce breakage, split ends and frizz while also softening and illuminating the hair.
Who is it for?
If you struggle with the following then hair botox is a good bet for you:
- Breakage
- Split ends
- Dryness
- Frizz
The Price
Hair botox can range in price depending on the brand you use, the salon you do it at and the length of your hair. Usually, you can expect a price between R500-R900.
It’s effects last for at least a month up to four months. The beautiful thing about hair botox is that it leaves your hair better than it found it, even after the effects wear off.
My hair botox experience
I found it to be quite an effortless process, actually. Your hair gets washed, and then the hair botox treatment goes on. The longest part is blowdrying it until it’s ready. Then its a rinse, wash and set.
I couldn’t believe how soft my hair felt afterwards, especially at the ends. I described it as feeling like a cloud. This coming from a girl who’s dyed her hair one too many times and struggled with dry ends for a while!
The shine was stunning and my hair looked thick and luscious. It does initially straighten the hair but after a week or two the natural curls/waves come back.
See below a quick TikTok video (@merilyn_s) about my experience:
The cloudy-soft feeling started wearing off about 2 weeks after the treatment but my hair still looked rich. Now, nearly two months later, my hair is still moisturised and the frizz is much less than before.
My favourite part is that now I can wash my hair, let it air dry and enjoy a frizz-free, wavy look.
Why not just do a Brazilian Blowout?
Not to sound like a negative Nancy but every person I’ve spoken to who’s done a Brazilian hair treatment has complained of hair loss, damage and dryness afterwards.
The active ingredient in a Brazilian blowout is formaldehyde. This is a chemical that not only causes irritation to your scalp, damages your hair but is also a horrible gas to breathe in while it’s being applied.
Besides this, Brazilian blowouts usually leave the hair much straighter and flat than hair botox which keeps your natural texture but tames it.
You’ll definitely enjoy it in the first couple weeks but long-term you’ll most likely regret the decision. Hair botox treats the hair while Brazilian blowout damages it for short-term satisfaction.
Final Thoughts
Picture waking up to frizz-free, manageable locks that make you feel like you can conquer the world. With hair botox, that dream can become your reality.
So, if you’ve been on the lookout for a hair transformation that’s more than just a quick fix, hair botox is your answer.
Get ready to step out into the world, feeling like the best version of yourself.
