What is hair cauterization?
The photo shows Midollo di Bamboo cosmetics with bamboo extract. This is a modern method of hair treatment using professional products. A distinctive feature of cauterization is a qualitative effect on both the surface and the internal structure of the hairline. To carry out the cauterization procedure at home and not only, specially developed cosmetics with bamboo extract are used. The main component of the medicinal composition is silicon, which regenerates and deeply nourishes damaged hair. After cauterization, the hair becomes denser, smoother, shinier and silky, less breakage and less loss. Today, this method of hair treatment is very effective, but quite expensive, since a course of at least four sessions will be required to obtain a stable effect. It should also be noted that before and during the course of cauterization, hair coloring should not be carried outbecause the active ingredients of cosmetics wash out the paint.
Contraindications for the procedure
- Diseases of the scalp.
- Pathological hair loss.
- Damage to the skin.
- Recent hair dyeing or discoloration.
Cauterization or lamination?
These methods may seem very similar. But is it really so? Let's try to figure it out. The visual effect is the same. After cauterization, as well as after lamination, the hair will be shiny and smooth. But there is one significant difference between them. Hair lamination is purely cosmetic in nature, affecting only the outer part of the hair. It is covered with a special protective layer. Cauterization, in addition to improving the appearance of the hair, is of a therapeutic nature and strengthens its structure from the inside.
Types of cauterization
There is a variety of hot and cold cauterization. The choice of hot or cold cauterization depends on the degree of hair damage. Hot cauterization is the most effective and suitable for restoring the structure of all hair types. This procedure is carried out by a series of professional wellness complex in a beauty salon by an experienced master. Cold cauterization can be done at home using medicated cosmetics purchased from specialized stores or pharmacies.
Hot Cauterization Procedure
- Hair and scalp are washed and cleaned with a special shampoo. After that, the hair scales are opened and prepared for the absorption of beneficial trace elements of health cosmetics.
- Applying bamboo oil to damp hair along the entire length.
- Hair is dried with a hairdryer and pulled with an iron to fix the effect.
- Rinsing hair without shampoo with warm water.
- After drying the hair, a special protein concentrate is applied for 20 minutes.
- In the final stage, a special spray is applied to "seal" the hair scales, which strengthens the hair structure and protects the ego from external factors.
Cold cauterization of hair at home
Unlike hot, cold cauterization can be done at home. As already mentioned, for this you need to buy special products with bamboo extract (Midollo di Bamboo). The main difference between the cold cauterization method is the absence of the use of an iron, since it is easy to damage the hair structure with an iron at home. Let's consider the steps of this method.
1. Wash your hair well with a cauterizing shampoo (Alfaparf Midollo Di Bamboo Restructuring Shampoo, pictured above). You can also use any other nourishing shampoo, it is only important that it is natural in composition, you can even prepare it yourself.
2. Apply a nourishing bamboo mask (Alfaparf Milano Midollo Di Bamboo Recharging Mask) to damp hair along the entire length from nape to bangs for 6-10 minutes. You can use another mask or bamboo oil. Rinse your strands with shampoo.
3. Dry your hair with a towel or hair dryer.
4. Rinse your hair without shampoo.
5. Apply a nourishing extract from the cosmetic kit in an ampoule to wet hair (Alfaparf Midollo Di Bamboo Renewal Lotion pictured on the right), then a two-phase spray (Alfaparf Midollo Di Bamboo Daily Repair Spray pictured on the left). After that, do not wash the hair. It is better to carry out this procedure in the evening before bedtime.
Useful Tips
If you have dull and split ends, try the cauterization method. Cold cauterization of hair at home will be justified only in the case of not very damaged hair. If you cannot determine the degree of damage and do not know which type of cauterization is right for you, contact a specialist.
It is important to know that the cauterization procedure can be carried out no more than once a week (preferably once a month) in four or more sessions. To consolidate the effect after the end of the course at home, you need to use a series of products for additional hair care, consisting of special shampoo, balm, mask and aerosol.
With the cauterization method, you can quickly and painlessly improve the condition of your hair instead of endlessly trimming split ends.
