Keratin Treatment Q&A - Everything You Need to Know
1. What is a Keratin Treatment?
A keratin treatment is a semi-permanent hair-smoothing procedure that infuses keratin (a natural hair protein) into the hair shaft. It reduces frizz, adds shine, and makes hair more manageable. Depending on the treatment type, results vary from subtle smoothing to significant straightening.
角蛋白治療是一種半永久性的頭髮柔軟程序，可將角蛋白（一種天然的頭髮蛋白質）注入髮乾。它可以減少毛躁，增加光澤，使頭髮更易於打理。根據治療類型，治療效果會有所不同，從細微的平滑到明顯的拉直。
2. How does it work?
The process involves applying a keratin-rich solution to the hair, which is then sealed using a flat iron at high heat. This bonds the keratin to the hair, smoothing the cuticle and locking in moisture.
該過程包括將富含角蛋白的溶液塗抹在頭髮上，然後用高溫的平板夾將其密封。這會將角蛋白與頭髮結合在一起，撫平角質層並鎖住水分。
3. What’s the difference between Brazilian, traditional, and express treatments?
- Brazilian: now offer "formaldehyde-free" options. Provides intense straightening.
- Traditional: Uses lower heat and may contain milder chemicals. Focuses on frizz reduction.
- Express: A quicker, less potent version (1–2 hours) with shorter-lasting results (4–8 weeks).
- 巴西配方：現在許多產品都提供「無甲醛」選擇。提供強力的矯正效果。
- 傳統配方：使用較低的熱量，可能含有較溫和的化學物質。專注於減少毛躁。
- 快速配方：速度較快，但效力較低（1-2 小時），效果時間較短（4-8 週）。
4. Does it contain harmful chemicals like formaldehyde?
Some treatments, particularly older Brazilian formulations, may include formaldehyde (a potential carcinogen). Newer options often replace it with alternatives like glyoxylic acid. Always ask for formaldehyde-free treatments and ensure proper salon ventilation.
一些治療方法，特別是較古老的巴西配方，或含有甲醛。較新的選擇通常用乙醛酸等替代品來代替它。選擇進行無甲醛的療程並確保過程時的通風良好。
5. How long does it last?
Typically 3–5 months, depending on hair type, aftercare, and treatment type (express versions fade faster).
通常為 3-5 個月，具體取決於頭髮類型、後期護理和治療類型
6. Can it damage hair?
Overuse or high-heat application may cause dryness or breakage. Opt for experienced stylists and avoid frequent treatments (wait 3–6 months between sessions).
過度使用或高溫使用可能會導致乾燥或破損。選擇經驗豐富的造型師並避免頻繁治療（每次治療之間間隔 3-6 個月）。
7. What’s the aftercare routine?
- Wait 72 hours before washing hair.
- Use sulfate-free and sodium chloride-free shampoos.
- Avoid pools (chlorine) and saltwater for a week.
- Minimize tight hairstyles to prevent creases.
- 等待 72 小時後再洗頭。
- 使用不含硫酸鹽和氯化鈉的洗髮精。
- 一週內避免接觸游泳池（含氯）和鹽水。
- 盡量減少緊繃的髮型，以防止出現皺褶。
8. Can it be done on colored or chemically treated hair?
Yes, but consult your stylist first. Keratin treatments may slightly fade color, so timing is key.
是的，但請先諮詢您的造型師。角蛋白治療可能會稍微褪色，因此時機是關鍵。
9. How long does the procedure take?
1.5–3 hours, depending on hair length and treatment type.
1.5–3 小時，取決於頭髮長度和治療類型。
10. Does it work on all hair types?
Yes, but results vary. Curly hair may loosen curls, while straight hair gains shine and frizz reduction.
是的，但結果有所不同。捲髮可能會鬆散，而直髮則會變得有光澤並且減少毛躁。
