From the lessons of anatomy it is known that the hair thread is 90% keratin. In the process of vital activity, due to gradual age-related changes, biological factors and the harmful effects of stress, their structure is depleted, making the general appearance dull, brittle, lifeless. A special procedure, keratin saturation and rectification, is aimed at war with this ridiculous, spoiling the mood misunderstanding. The article tells about the line of tools for this procedure - Max Blowout keratin.
Features and composition of the drug
World beauty salons are trying to keep up, and sometimes even ahead of time. Until some time, it was believed that keratin saturation is an exclusively medical procedure, but recent practical studies have shown that keratin-protein substance can not only cure, but also straighten unruly strands, giving them a gloss and even styling.
Max Blowout - a medical and cosmetological hair treatment developed by American trichologists, is a mixture of the latest generation. It contains natural keratin, a fibrillar component of the protein structure, which is evenly distributed throughout the structure, filling up the damaged areas, smoothing the scaly parts, thereby making the hair strong, docile and healthy.
Consequently, keratinization is designed to cure hair, return it to its former beauty and lightness, without depriving it of the total volume.
Important! The difference between Max Blowout and previous analogues is that formaldehyde is absent in the composition - a chemical compound dangerous to health that can cause at least a non-weak allergic reaction in the human body. Accordingly, the cost of this type of keratinizing is somewhat more expensive than similar ones.
In the industrial turnover, max keratin blot compound is available in several types:
- Classic - it is recommended to wash your hair at least 48 hours after application,
- Premium - shampooing is allowed one day after application,
- Ultimate - it is possible to wash off structure from hair on the same day.
Also there are several options for the volume of bottles: 250 ml, 500 ml and 750 ml. It should be noted that the volume of 250 ml is designed for approximately 12 treatments with long hair.
Instructions for use
This procedure, despite the fact that the use of the composition is allowed at home, it is still recommended to be carried out in the cabin, since a professional hairdresser will be working on it, who has experience in working with these compositions and, importantly, from the side you can see how carefully the mixture was applied to the hair.
The last point is very important - saving money can irreversibly ruin a further state, not to mention their appearance.
The keratin hair saturation technique includes 6 points:
- Washing head. It is necessary to carry out with shampoo deep cleaning, since any remaining contamination will not have the best effect on the further result.
- Hair Dryer. They must not remain wet and must be kept strictly dry.
- Application of the composition: the roots are not affected, since an undesirable reaction to the drug on the scalp side is possible, it is recommended to retreat from them by about 1 cm. Further, the composition remains on the hair until completely absorbed, which is about 20-25 minutes, depending on the type. Keratin should be absorbed as much as possible by the structure of the hair thread. The mixture should be applied as carefully as possible, not to save, as with a lack of application, you can permanently burn the hair. Preferably applied to a small strand.
- Drying is made by the iron. It is necessary to begin only after total soaking. The temperature determined for the composition is set (in this case 230 ° is recommended), then each strand is carefully ironed. On average, 7-10 times. If you look at what is happening with the hair at this time, then you can see that the scales gradually close, gluing the keratin composition, which was applied before ironing, within a few months.
- The hair is softened by washing with plain water. then a special mask is applied, which is provided with the composition. Further, they are dried with a regular hairdryer without the use of a smoothing ironing.
- During the procedure it is important not to allow both unsaturation and supersaturation with the mixture used.
Contraindications
Despite the fact that this procedure has such an invaluable healing effect, There are a number of situations where you should not do it:
- damaged skin on the head,
- pregnancy at any time due to additional chemical components of the mixture,
- cancer and treatment related to them
- individual intolerance to the components of the mixture, keratin allergy,
- adolescence to 17 years, as in this period, the hair is not fully improved their formation on the female type.
Keratin straightening procedure has a cumulative effect, which means that over time they will gradually accumulate keratin and improve in their structure. However, since the max blowout preparation itself contains additional chemicals, it is not recommended to do it more often than once every 2-3 months. Any intervention in the structure of an aggressive environment, albeit with useful components, is undoubted stress for the hair.
Advantages and disadvantages
Like any other cosmetology service, keratin straightening has both its advantages and disadvantages. The positive aspects include:
- the effect obtained: the hair becomes completely smooth, soft to the touch, docile, and after a few procedures it is also improved,
- hair is completely protected from external influences,
- have a healthy unique brilliance.
The procedure is quite expensive in the form of imported drugs (USA). On the average varies from 15 to 20 thousand rubles. The cost of the procedure in some cases affects the brand of the composition: Classic is more budget than Premium, respectively, the most expensive can be called Ultimate. Also in the additional cost salons can include washing the head and drying the hair. In addition, you can highlight:
- not everyone is shown in terms of health,
- requires a good experience from the master, and it is not always possible to evaluate.

What does keratin hair straightening mean?
Not all ladies can boast of hair that is naturally smooth, and then various professional procedures, including using keratin, come to the rescue. So, what is keratin hair restoration? This is a procedure in which the hair is treated with a special tool that straightens and smoothes the hair, and also helps to restore their structure, making them more shiny, healthy and pleasant to the touch. In addition, a peculiar bonus of this manipulation is the simplification of the daily hair styling - after keratin they become more docile and perfectly fit in the hairstyle. At the same time, keratin can be done both on straight hair (for treatment and recovery, as well as making it healthier), and on curly hair (the composition copes well with smoothing even the toughest curls, but remember that keratin for curly hair must be chosen very carefully). Hair treatment with keratin is also common - it is made by women who do not need hair straightening, but want to return it to shine and give a more healthy look.
Tips for preparing hair for the procedure
In general, there is no universal guide for preparing hair for keratinization, however, those who are going to try this procedure on themselves can advise the following:
- if you're going to have a haircut, do it before keratin hair restoration,
- some time before the procedure, it is worth to abandon the onion hair masks, if, of course, their use is practiced - if you do not do this, keratin simply will not be taken or washed off earlier than expected,
- A few weeks before the procedure, it is worth refusing “irons” - hair that is constantly exposed to thermo-exposure may not “take” the composition.
- Also, hair dyed with henna or after a perm is less responsive to straightening; therefore, a 100% result can only be after a 2 nd procedure.
The effect after the procedure of keratin straightening is kept on the hair for two to five months. Of course, much depends on the quality of the composition, which was used for keratin filling hair, as well as on compliance with the technology of keratinization and the type of hair. Nevertheless, there are ways to keep the hair shiny and smooth for the longest possible time.
- Some formulations suggest that the first time you can wash your hair no earlier than three days after keratising. If you comply with this restriction, keratin will not wash off and will long please you after the procedure.
- Use special hair care products (sulfate-free shampoos, support masks, etc.)
- Do not swim in the sea, as the salt has a devastating effect on keratin.
- Hair dyeing should be done no earlier than 7-10 days after the procedure, and to use only non-ammonia dyes for this.
Review of the best keratin remedies
- Cocochoco: the most democratic and affordable composition, the quality of which, however, is questionable. It has an extremely high content of formaldehyde, has a very sharp and unpleasant smell. In addition, in Russia there is no official representative of this Israeli company, and you can use such a composition at your own risk. However, today many masters in the salons work on this composition. I personally do not recommend to agree to straightening with this remedy, since the vast majority of girls experience discomfort or allergic reactions during the procedure. Today there are more decent compositions with good rectifying properties.
- Brazilian Blowout: American keratin, which is used only in luxury salons due to its high cost. Perfectly straightens hair, aligning them with protein compounds in its composition. Differs incredible shine on the hair and their friability. Eliminates the effect of "dirty roots" and keeps on the hair up to 3 months. As part of this product, there is also formaldehyde (as the basis for successful straightening), but according to personal observations, I can say that the number of allergic reactions and discomfort for the master and client was noted only in 2 girls out of 20.
- Cadiveu: a unique Brazilian product, very popular in Russian salons, with its help you can achieve perfect hair smoothness and lasting effect. Contains cocoa and panthenol. The composition really copes with very porous hair, perfectly smoothes curls, but it has a small minus: the feeling of “dirty hair”. Gradually, the tool is washed out and a month later the scalp looks much "drier"
- Bio Ionic: an excellent one-step remedy for keratin recovery without formaldehyde. The procedure is extremely fast and consists of only one stage, however, high-quality straightening is guaranteed.
- Inoar: a brand with a world name, which is actively used by Russian hairdressers in salons of various levels. The effect after the procedure lasts for 2 to 4 months, depending on the selected composition.
- Hogma Tokyo: a widely known and actively applied composition in high-level salons. Having worked for a long time with this tool, I can safely recommend it to girls with thin, thick, curly or stiff, porous hair, as it perfectly straightens and gives a glossy shine all over the hair to the very ends.
Is it possible to do the procedure at home?
Compositions for keratinization are sold in the free access, and anyone can buy them, so no one can forbid keratin hair restoration at home. But it is necessary to take into account that a quality procedure can be done only in the conditions of a hairdressing salon, and the specialist must carry it out: only then you will be guaranteed to be satisfied with the result.
The cost of keratin recovery varies depending on such factors as the professionalism of the master and his category, the level of the salon where you plan to do this procedure, as well as the length and type of hair and the composition used.On average, in the salons of St. Petersburg it costs from 2.5 to 10 thousand rubles, however, if you try, you can find options and more expensive and cheaper.
Recently, I conducted a small Survey among my regular clients:
- Why are you doing keratin hair straightening?
- How often do you have to repeat the procedure?
- What measures are you taking to preserve the effect of the procedure for a longer period?
- Hair is very curly, but I always wanted them to be smooth and silky, I have to straighten.
- Once every three months, in principle, you can walk longer, but the effect is not the same. After a trip to the sea, the interval between procedures had to be reduced to 2.5 months - the effect disappeared.
- I use sulfate-free shampoo and keratin mask.
- I have several reasons for this: I like the way the hair looks after keratin, I feel how their structure improves, and, which is also important, they are very easy to style.
- I do the keratinization procedure every 4 months. The effect persists for this time, I don’t feel like dragging any longer, as my hair is the best advertisement for clients.
- I use the whole complex of professional care, and I choose the means of the same company as the keratin composition.

1. Part of my appearance is the business card of my company, so the appearance should be at its best. Keratin helps a lot with this, hair always looks perfect.
- Once in 3.5 months, I am sure that I can do it a little less, but I don’t want to risk it.
- Special shampoo, mask, I refrain from going to the sauna - I can only afford myself just before the next procedure.
