At the mention of Botox, most people think of the popular cosmetic procedure for smoothing the skin of the face and getting rid of wrinkles to gain youth and beauty in appearance.
However, today, with the help of Botox, not only rejuvenating facial procedures are carried out, but also reconstruction of the damaged hair structure.... The common name is already used in the procedures for healing and strengthening curls.
Botox for hair - what is it
Since the method of hair improvement with botox has only recently been used in the world of cosmetic correction of appearance, many do not know what kind of procedure it is.
The Botox hair treatment can quickly restore health, shine and beauty to your hair. The active components of the serum used in the technique have the ability to penetrate the hair structure at the molecular level, which contributes to the restoration of the hair from the inside.
The procedure is carried out in the salon and takes about 1 hour, depending on the thickness, length, structure of the hair:
- first, the head is washed with a mild shampoo and dried with a towel;
- a specially developed product is applied to the curls and thoroughly spread with a comb along the entire length, kept for up to 40 minutes.
The product works from the inside, restoring hair and filling voids;
- then a composition is applied, which helps to seal the beneficial components inside the hair and fixes the effect of the active agent.
You need to put on a special hat on your head. Next, you should act on the hair with warm air - this contributes to the gluing of the scales and the sealing of useful components.
The composition is distributed over the hair and left for 5 minutes;
- the composition must be washed off and the hair is washed with shampoo;
- at the end, a special regenerating mask should be applied, which strengthens the curls, strengthens and prolongs the effect of the Botox procedure;
- dry hair with a hairdryer without rinsing off the mask.
The result of the procedure is not immediately visible, the effect appears after some time. Hair gains shine and rich color, becomes smooth, light and silky, easy to comb.
Even after one procedure, the amazing effect that Botox has on hair is obvious. Photos before and after the session demonstrate this.
Hot and cold botox for hair
There is hot and cold botox for hair - what is it and what's the difference?
If the purpose of the procedure is to stimulate hair growth, treat scalp and split ends, then cold botox should be performed. The procedure takes a little time - 40 minutes.
If, in addition to improving your hair, straightening is also desirable, hot botox should be preferred. Its composition is absolutely safe and does not contain formaldehyde.
Hot botox eliminates frizz. Hair will become smooth and even.
In this procedure, a hair straightener is used. Wherein it is important to pay attention to the temperature regime, when choosing which one should take into account the condition of the hair:
- for colored and damaged hair up to 180 degrees
- for healthy hair t about 200 degrees
- for hard - t 230 degrees
The duration of the session takes longer and depends on how thick and long the hair is. On average, it lasts about 3 hours.
The composition of the botox product
According to experts, the Botox preparation for hair is absolutely harmless, since it consists only of natural and harmless components and contains a lot of substances beneficial to hair.
One of the most important ingredients in its composition is an organic-mineral molecule known as Intra-Silane, which has the ability to penetrate the hair shaft and act from the inside on problem areas, filling in the voids.
Botox also contains the following components:
- vitamins A, B, C and D - always a win-win combination for hair beauty;
- keratin - a building material for hair, which helps to restore damaged curls;
- lactic and hyaluronic acids, which provide deep hydration;
- amino acids - strengthen the hair follicles;

Many women have already tried healing with a hair botox session. Their reviews testify to the amazing results obtained after the hair reconstruction process.
Hair botox vs. lamination: which is better?
A detailed acquaintance with the advantages and disadvantages of each will help to make a choice between these currently popular hair treatments.
The essence of Botox is hair improvement through a vitamin cocktail that penetrates deep into the hair and reconstructs injured areas from the inside.
Lamination also allows you to restore the damaged hair structure, but the effect on the hair is outside. The hair is treated with a biolaminate preparation that coats each hair. A film is formed that protects hair and retains moisture, and its porous structure allows hair to "breathe".
The visible effect after both procedures is similar:
- the structure of curls is restored;
- the volume visually increases;
- hair is enriched with useful substances;
- curls look lively and hydrated.
However, there are significant differences that must be taken into account when making the final choice in favor of a particular procedure.
The main difference is that the duration of the lamination effect is short - about a month... Since the composition used acts from the outside, the result will be shorter and only visual.
What to choose depends on the intended goal. If the hair is healthy, then lamination will make it shiny and protect it from harmful effects for a period of 4 weeks, and will also make the hair straight. Botox, on the other hand, will help to quickly restore hair damaged by staining or perm.
Keratin or botox for hair
The essential difference between keratin and botox is that the keratin procedure removes volume, and curly hair is straightened. But, if the hair is significantly damaged, discolored and there is a section at the ends, it is not recommended to carry out keratin, you should opt for Botox.
After the keratin session, the hair should be washed with special shampoos and masks and balms containing keratin should be used. After botox and lamination, any shampoo with PH Keratin lasts up to 6 months on the hair, depending on proper care after the procedure and the initial condition of the hair. The duration of the result from the use of Botox is on average up to 2-3 months, but with a repeated procedure, the duration increases. Keratin or botox for hair - which is better to prefer depends on the goal pursued. If straightening curls is a priority, keratin will cope with this task faster. If the main thing is hair resuscitation, botox should be preferred. Main the disadvantage of keratin hair straightening is that the preparation used during the procedure contains formaldehyde, which can cause an allergic reaction and even poisoning, both at the master and at the client. Therefore, the session should be carried out in a well-ventilated area. In addition, the frequent use of this substance increases the risk of cancer. The session lasts about 4 hours.

Photos before and after botox for curly hair you can see below. How long does the result last after the procedure and how to properly care for the achieved effect to please you longer? Various brands of Botox products often have a validity period of up to 6 months. but the duration of action is influenced by the following factors: Judging by the reviews, the hairstyle remains perfect and requires minimal styling costs for at least 2 months, regardless of which brand of drug was used. The result of exposure to serum lasts quite a long time, so frequent repetition of the procedure is unreasonable. Since the composition has potent active substances, botox abuse can lead to the opposite result: the hair will become brittle and lifeless. Experts recommend giving your hair the opportunity to "rest" and do not advise doing a second procedure earlier than 3 months later. The effect of re-treatment lasts longer due to the accumulation of nutrients in the hair, with proper care. Experts recommend performing the dyeing procedure before a Botox session, as any process associated with hair restoration leads to, albeit not significant, but still loss of color. It is recommended to paint in advance in more saturated bright colors. After applying the serum, the hair color will become softer, more natural, and the color will last longer.

Each individual pregnancy has its own characteristics of the course and is associated with a lack of various vitamins - all these factors can affect the result of the hair restoration process through the application of Botox. The effect of the serum will be more short-lived or absent. Also, the risk of allergies increases. According to beauticians, pregnant and lactating women should wait with a Botox session. Although some manufacturers of the product offer a line of drugs designed specifically for pregnant women. Like any cosmetic or drug, Botox for hair contains a number of contraindications when you should not resort to this procedure at all, and in some cases you need to wait: Based on the advice of professional masters, there are no obstacles to botox hair before going to the sea.

I tried Botox for hair - the result was amazing. The hair did not become straight, but the curls look like those of Hollywood actresses. Neat and well-groomed, soft to the touch and lightweight. I can't imagine how I lived before ...
I first heard about botox for hair from a friend. Before that, I thought that Botox is an anti-wrinkle injections for women of age.
the girlfriend's hair after the procedure looked amazing. She is a dyed blonde. The hair color has become alive, and the curls themselves are silky and soft.
I could not resist either. Just awesome. The hairstyle looks perfect without effort and time. The strands are smooth, light, like the models from the advertisement.
I found out about the procedure by accident - an article about botox for hair came across on the Internet. Finding out what and how she decided to take the risk. I was very pleased with the result.
The procedure was done for the third time. The first time lasted 3 months. The second time, the result was pleasing for about 5 months. Now, from the third time, 4 months have passed, while everything is OK.
