To get smooth and thick hair in just one procedure, which you don’t have to style every day – isn’t this what many people dream about? Hair Lamination has many advantages, but, like any procedure, there are disadvantages and limitations.
Together with experts, we figured out how long the effect lasts and who should refuse lamination.
Hair lamination is when an exceptional composition is applied to the hair, transforming its structure. As a result, an invisible protective shell is created around each hair, which fills the pores and voids in the hair structure.
Lamination is similar to keratin straightening, but in fact, these are two different processes used to improve the condition and appearance of hair. Each procedure has its own purpose.
Lamination aims to create a protective layer that helps retain moisture and nutrients, giving hair shine and smoothness.
Keratin straightening is designed to smooth and straighten hair. It is based on applying keratin to the hair and then applying direct heat to help smooth the cuticle.
Hair lamination is usually based on the use of unique polymer compounds that form a film on the surface of the hair. Keratin straightening involves the use of keratin as well as other chemical compounds, usually formaldehyde or its derivatives. Formaldehyde helps change the structure of the hair to make it straighter.
People with wavy hair should refrain from the procedure if they do not want to straighten it (the effect will be individual in any case, but curly hair will undoubtedly be straightened). Owners of thick and heavy hair will also not get what they want: their curls will begin to seem even heavier. And for those whose hair is too dry and weak, it is better to start with care treatments.
Pros
Minuses
The procedure takes about an hour. The duration depends on the length and thickness of the hair. Also, the process may vary slightly depending on the salon and brand of products with a lamination effect.
Laminating hair with gelatin helps create a protective layer that adds shine, smoothness, and elasticity. Gelatin contains collagen, which can penetrate the hair structure and strengthen it, allowing the hair to retain moisture.
The result of hair lamination with gelatin usually lasts about two to three weeks. However, it should be taken into account that the duration of the effect may depend on the condition of the hair, the method of application, and the individual characteristics of each person.
The frequency of hair lamination depends on the condition of the hair. It is usually recommended to repeat the procedure after two to three months. However, individual characteristics may require more frequent or, conversely, rare repetition of the process.
