The capillary cauterization is an aesthetic treatment that closes the structure of the strands, so as to stop frizz, reduce the volume and promote the softness, hydration and brightness of the wires, using keratin and heat.
Professional hair styling should be performed in hairdressing salons, and it allows the cuticle to be reconstructed and sealed from damaged, brittle and brittle hair. Its effect is temporary and depending on the hair structure and response to treatment, it needs to be repeated every 3 or 4 months.
When it is indicated
Capillary cauterization is indicated for damaged, brittle, brittle or with open cuticles that are in need of a deep and restorative treatment.
In addition, when the products used do not contain formalin or similar substances in their composition, this technique can also be done by pregnant women.
How is it done?
The process of performing the technique may vary somewhat depending on the kit used by the professional, but generally includes the following steps:
- Hair wash: with appropriate anti-waste shampoo, in order to open the cuticles of the wires. This step serves to ensure that the hair is ready to receive and absorb the product from the sealing;
- Application of keratin: after washing the use of a sealant cream or a conditioner combined with ampoules of keratin is indicated;
- Use of heat: finally, the thermal step is performed, which includes the making of brush and passage of plaques in the wires. The plaque should be made into very thin strands and each strand should be smoothed 5 to 6 times.
Depending on the brand used, after washing it may be recommended to wash the hair in order to remove the excess of used product or it may be indicated that the product remains in the wires for a few days.
In addition to the professional capillary cauterization, there is also the homemade capillary cauterization, which consists of a homemade and more economical version of the technique, which can be done using the hair dryer or flat at home, until the hair is well aligned. However, even in this case it is advisable to consult an experienced professional who can evaluate the type of hair and what your needs are, before performing the procedure.
