What is keratin?

Keratin is a protein that occurs naturally in hair, skin and nails. It gives them strength and elasticity. When hair loses keratin, it becomes brittle and dull.

How does keratin work on hair?

It fills in small damage on the hair surface, smooths the cuticle and forms a protective film. Hair becomes smoother, softer, shinier and less frizzy.

What is a keratin hair treatment?

A keratin hair treatment smooths and nourishes the hair for several months. Keratin bonds are also a method of hair extensions – long-lasting and natural-looking.

How do you use cosmetics with keratin?

Use keratin shampoos and conditioners regularly. Apply a keratin mask once a week as an intensive repair for damaged hair.
