Split ends by keratin straightening treatment

by Olivia
(Miami)

I had my hair washed and blow dried 3 or 4 days after having the keratin straightening treatment and my ends are all split and frizzed like a nightmare. The only solution is ironing it which was the main thing I didn't want to do.

The first time I did the treatment, 6 months ago (with another stylist) it didn't happen and I'm freaking out. My hair pretty thin and semi-curly normally.

Anybody has any idea what could have happened? My hairdresser HAS NO CLUE.... Thanks

Some tips and solutions
by: N.F.

Last think you want is to ironing the damaged hair. The damaged was caused by heat after your second treatment and will happen again if your stylist don't make a proper strand test prior to application. Your first choice is to keep conditioning the ends to partially reverse the damage, but ultimately you have to get a trim to get rid of split ends to avoid additional hair breakage.

I recommend using salon professional serum or leave-in creams to protect, moisturize and seal the ends. Joico K-Pak Protect & Shine Serum with Keratin Silicone Complex is a good choice if you like to have a glossy finish with protection. For conditioning you can use Bed Head Ego Boost if you like Tigi Brands!?. For shampoo I suggest Alterna Hemp Seed Repair Shampoo.

About 2 months after Keratin Straightening treatment the lower 1/3 (farthest from scalp) of my hair is breaking, frizzy, dry, snaps in half. The stylist cannot explain. It is not all over my head, mostly the front part. If anyone knows how to solve this problem please let me know. The front part has completely grown out since the straightening but the hair is still breaking. Also, eventhough my hair has been cut regularly, the ends are no longer curly, just dry.
