Using Botox for hair helps not only to straighten hair, but also to restore it, and also heal it. The strands become strong, shiny and healthy. Hair is one of the main advantages of a woman, but caring for it takes a lot of time and effort. Every day, strands are negatively affected by environmental factors, frequent drying with a hairdryer, hot styling, the use of varnish, mousse and foam, unhealthy diet, hair coloring with chemical dyes. All this greatly depletes the hair, making it weak and brittle. Botox is used today not only to take care of the beauty of hair, but also to straighten it. It is keratin botox that helps to heal the strands, returning them to their natural glossy shine and silkiness.

Hair botox: what is it?
Botox for hair is a modern beauty product, thanks to which the strands are enriched and nourished at the cellular level. An accelerated process of recovery of weakened and injured curls begins, while the resulting effect persists for a long time. Hair botox and wrinkle smoothing are completely different drugs and have nothing in common. Botox for hair contains a unique active molecule botolutoxin, but the effect obtained is somewhat reminiscent of the effect of this substance on the skin of the face.
Botox hair straightening composition
The effective preparation of Botox for hair contains a large amount of proteins, vitamins, keratin, amino acids, collagen, vegetable oils, hyaluronic acid, as well as plant extracts.
The main active ingredient of the drug is the organic-mineral molecule intra-silane, the action of which is close to the complex molecule of botox. This molecule has the ability to penetrate deep into the hair structure, after which it splits under the influence of moisture. As a result, a kind of skeleton is formed inside the hair, strengthening and protecting the hair shaft.
The preparation does not contain botox, since this is only a good marketing move, thanks to which the attention of the fairer sex is attracted to the procedure, who know the effect of this substance.
How does botox treatment work on hair?
Hair Botox can be used for a variety of purposes, such as healing, straightening naughty and curly yarns, adding volume or thickness. Such effects can be achieved using Botox preparations.
Botox for hair treatment
These drugs are widely used to treat traumatized, damaged and weakened hair. Botox helps to eliminate the problem of hair loss not only in women, but also in men.
After contact with water, the active intra-silane molecule begins to swell, then penetrates directly into the hair shaft. Due to this, vitamins and nutrients that make up the preparation are evenly distributed along the entire length of the hair.
The active elements begin the accelerated restoration of the hair structure from the inside. Thanks to this action, the problem of hair loss is eliminated. The active molecule can also penetrate into the hair follicle, after which it saturates it with valuable vitamins, protein and amino acids.
Hair straightening botox
Botox is not one of the special techniques developed for hair straightening (for example, lamination or keratin straightening). Despite the fact that the preparations contain keratin, its amount is insufficient.
After penetration into the hair, the intra-silane molecule begins its accelerated restoration and saturation with moisture. As a result, the strands become smooth and silky, making styling easier. Of course, curly hair is not completely straightened, but it becomes more manageable and less brittle.
Botox for curly hair
Of course, botox will not help to make curly hair perfectly straight, but thanks to the effect of the active molecules of the drug and the effect of vitamins with amino acids, all the voids of the hair shaft are filled. Therefore, hair restoration begins, the strands rise slightly at the roots, but complete straightening of the curls is not achieved.
Unlike keratin hair straightening, botox does not have the same effect and a light wave will remain on the curls. However, the strands become more manageable and smooth, a glossy shine returns.
Botox for fine hair
This is the ideal treatment for fragile and fine hair. The organic-mineral molecule of the preparation penetrates into the hair shaft, and gradually increases under the influence of moisture. After applying minerals and vitamins to the hair, the active substance quickly draws them inside, saturation and restoration of the strands occurs. As a result, the curls visually acquire additional volume, become heavier and thicker.

Hair straightening with botox in a beauty salon
The hair botox procedure consists of two main phases that must be followed:
- The hair is treated with a special chemical, thanks to which other beneficial substances penetrate better into the hair shaft, since all the passages are opened.
- During the second phase, a preparation with a high concentration of nutrients, amino acids and vitamins is used. The product is applied in the form of a mask, after which the beneficial substances penetrate deep into the hair and seal all the passages. Thanks to this, the hair looks well-groomed and healthy for several months.
In the salon, the Botox procedure is performed according to the following instructions:
- First, the hair is thoroughly washed, after which a special shampoo is used, which prepares the strands for the penetration of nutrients.
- Hair is washed well with plenty of water, dried with a hairdryer, but only with cold air.
- The strands are carefully combed and divided into several parts, so that the composition is evenly distributed over the entire length of the hair.
- A reconstructing serum is applied to the entire length of the hair using a special syringe. It is important that the composition gets on each hair, because thanks to its effect, beneficial substances penetrate into the hair shaft. The serum is left on for 30-40 minutes.
- Then a product is applied to the hair to restore the strands and fix the nutrients inside. The serum is left on the hair for 5 minutes and rinsed off with plenty of water.
- At the final stage, a mask is applied to the hair, thanks to which there is an accelerated restoration of strands and an increase in the duration of Botox. You do not need to wash off the mask; at the end, the strands are dried with a hairdryer.
After about 2-3 weeks, you need to visit the master again, as you need to consolidate the effect of the procedure and prolong its positive effect. Of course, this procedure can be performed on your own at home, since it is very easy to buy the necessary drugs. But it is best to trust an experienced master, because in this case the desired result will be obtained.

Real reviews of the botox hair straightening procedure
Hair straightening with botox is popular among the owners of naughty long curls. Many of them do this procedure regularly. You can read reviews about the service on the Internet.
Christina, 27 years old
For several years now I have been doing the keratin hair restoration procedure. I have them long, fluffy and randomly curled. The last time the master advised me to try botox for hair. The price came out about the same. I decided to give it a try. Used means Honma Tokyo. This composition is considered one of the most effective and popular. About 30 ml of the substance was consumed on my hair slightly longer than the shoulders. The procedure itself begins with washing your hair with a special shampoo. Then Botox is applied and left warm for half an hour. After that, the hair is dried with a hairdryer and pulled out with an iron. That's the whole procedure. Immediately after the end of the manipulations, the hair seems silky, even if you take it off in advertising - it is very smooth, crumbly, even. Unfortunately, after the first shampooing at home, the "fluffiness" on the tips returned. However, they still remain pleasant and firm to the touch. This effect lasted for about two months. Then it gradually faded away. Most likely, I will alternate keratinization and botox. Because both procedures, in my opinion, are equally beneficial for the hair.
Alina, 25 years old
A year ago, I treated my hair with keratin. Rather, I thought that I would cure, because I had no effect from keratin. Hair remained fluffy and lost any smoothness after the first wash. Therefore, I was already suspicious of Botox. My hairdresser persuaded me for a long time, and in the end I gave up. They immediately washed my hair with technical shampoo, which deeply cleanses the hair. Then Botox was applied, stepping back a couple of centimeters from the roots. The smell is pleasant, no discomfort. Half an hour after application, all hair is pulled out with an iron, without washing off the botox. Under thermal influence, all beneficial substances penetrate into the hair structure and remain there without being washed out. I was advised to wash my hair the next day and only with sulfate-free shampoo. Otherwise, the effect of Botox will not last long. I was very pleased with the result! Hair, like silk, smooth, perfectly combed, not tangled. Even at the end of the day without a comb, I could run my fingers through them and not get caught. The effect persisted even after washing. Two months have already passed - a little "splendor" has appeared, but the curls are still smooth and look well-groomed. I will definitely do botox again, because this is a real salvation for my hair.
Marina, 33 years old
I saw an advertisement for botox for hair and decided to do this procedure for myself. The master in the salon promised me hair tightening, complete recovery, smoothness and shine. My curls are thin, prone to oily, slightly dry at the ends and quickly lose their volume after washing. I thought I could solve these problems with the help of Botox. Along with this, they made my hair polished. I liked the initial effect - I was already hoping that my hair would look like this for at least a couple of months, as promised. Hair really became heavier, smoother, more elastic. I was pleased. But as soon as I washed my hair at home, the effect was washed down the drain in the literal sense of the word. The hair remained soft, but the smoothness was gone, began to curl, as before. But the worst thing is that Botox made the curls heavier and now after washing my hair it takes a couple of hours, and I look like a homeless person with locks hanging from oily icicles. The tips remained dry, but the roots were even more devoured. In general, I did not expect such an effect and now I am waiting for the Botox to be completely washed out of my hair …
