Tips for Picking the Right Hair Treatment for Your Hair

Whether it’s curly, wavy, or straight, there are some great options for taking good care of your hair. But which professional treatment do you choose, and which one is best for your specific hair type? Here are some tips to keep in mind the next time you visit your beauty hair salon in Anchorage, AK.

Curly Hair

If you have curly hair you are more likely to have thicker hair, but not always. Ask your stylist what type of hair you have so that they will be able to suggest the right treatments for your hair type.

If you are looking to straighten your hair a Japanese straightening method is one option to consider. It should last anywhere from six to seven months, and can bring some amazing shine to the hair. However, it takes several hours to apply, and there could be upkeep involved. Be sure to talk with your stylist about all the pros and cons before you decide to straighten your hair. Japanese style straightening provides more conditioning benefits to the hair than chemical straightening or re-bonding does.

Wavy Hair

The good news for those with thick hair is that it is more robust and can handle hair treatments better than fine hair. Keratin treatments and Brazilian blowouts are two of the most popular treatments for hair. Both of these treatments use the application of keratin and heat to the hair.

Keratin is a protein that is found naturally in the hair. The salon stylist applies a keratin treatment to the hair and then seals it with heat. The best part of these treatments is that they not only have great conditioning and shine benefits, but they have less upkeep, gradual growth, and can be done repeatedly with no negative side effects. They should last around six months.

Straight Hair

If you have straight hair you most likely have fine hair. This means that your hair does not respond well to heavy products or treatments. You should avoid treatments with heavy waxes or sealants because they could weigh the hair down. If you have fine hair you should also avoid any harsh chemical hair processes (like perms) that could weaken or damage the already fragile strands.

Instead of having a chemical process applied to your hair, ask the stylist at your beauty hair salon in Anchorage, AK about doing a less aggressive conditioning, or about what daily beauty products they would recommend to give your fine hair the moisture it needs without weighting it down.
