Despite its name, hair botox has little to do with botox used in cosmetics to reduce the signs of aging. It is actually an intensive hair treatment that aims to strengthen and revitalize damaged hair. But what are the real benefits of hair botox? How does it work ? We tell you everything about this increasingly popular treatment!

What is hair botox?

Hair botox is a treatment developed to restore health, shine and vitality to the most fragile hair. Unlike botox used in aesthetic medicine, hair botox does not contain botulinum toxin and is named so because of its revitalizing effect! Hair botox deeply nourishes the hair fiber thanks to its ultra-moisturizing and restructuring formulation. Generally enriched with plant butters, hyaluronic acids, vitamins and even essential oils, this treatment penetrates the hair cuticle to repair damage caused by external aggressions. But that's not all, hair botox has many benefits, it:

• Controls frizz
• Control the volume
• Deeply hydrates
• Nourishes intensely
• Restores hair suppleness
• Stimulates growth
• Boosts shine

Just that ! This treatment is particularly recommended for hair looking to improve its health and appearance while targeting various concerns such as frizz, lack of shine or vitality.

What is the difference between hair straightening and botox?

Hair straightening and botox are two techniques that differ in their objectives and approaches to improving the health and appearance of hair.

Hair straightening: This is a chemical or thermal treatment, developed to make hair smooth, straight and less susceptible to frizz. There are several types of straightening: Brazilian, Japanese, Tahitian or even keratin. These processes involve the use of chemicals to change the structure of the hair, making it straighter. Although some straightening is not harmful, like our Bora Bora straightening , they all involve a chemical transformation of the hair.

Hair botox: Unlike straightening, botox does not entirely change the structure of the hair. It is a treatment that provides suppleness, nutrition, shine and softness to the hair while reducing frizz and stimulating the growth of the hair fiber. Unlike straightening, botox slightly relaxes curls by 5-10% over a period of 2-3 months. It mainly acts on suppleness, volume and frizz, without completely altering the natural structure of the hair.

The choice between these two treatments depends on the desired results. If you are aiming for perfectly straight hair over a long period of time, straightening will suit you better. On the other hand, if you prefer to regain your natural curls after a few months or if you are looking for a solution to improve the texture of your hair without radical transformation, hair botox is for you!

Should you use hair botox when you want to enhance your curls?

Hair botox is not a treatment designed for people who want to enhance their curls. Even if this treatment does not 100% distort the structure of the hair, it still relaxes the curls for 2 to 3 months. For those who want a curl enhancing treatment, we recommend our 5 in 1 leave-in , specially developed to detangle, hydrate, nourish and protect curls without weighing them down while acting as a shield against external aggressions (pollution, UV rays). , cold) ! You can also opt for a vegetable oil such as coconut, sweet almond or jojoba oil, which helps nourish and seal in hydration at the heart of the hair fiber.
