Hair lamination at home

Girl with hair

In summer, the scorching rays of the sun negatively affect the hair. The strands become dry and brittle. Under the influence of winter frosts, they lose vitality, luster and attractiveness. Daily use of hair dryers and irons contributes to the violation of the structure and the appearance of split ends.

How to resist the harmful effects of natural factors and restore healthy hair? This will help a procedure called lamination. It involves coating the surface of curls with a thin protective layer (film), and the nutritional composition enriches curls with vitamins and minerals.

This method of care is offered in beauty salons, but the procedure is expensive. Do not get upset, because lamination can be done at home, and the effect will not be worse.

Preparation and Precautions

Before the procedure, cleansing, nutrition and hydration are necessary. Hair should be thoroughly washed with deep cleansing shampoo at least 2 times and rinsed with running water. Then moisturize well: apply a nourishing balm or conditioner enriched with vitamins and wash off after 5-10 minutes.

REMEMBER! Any component of the composition may cause an allergic reaction. Before application, test the drug behind the ear and wait 10-15 minutes. In the absence of burning, redness, itching, lamination can be continued.

Laminated Hair Care

After the procedure, proper hair care is also necessary! This will help maintain the effect for a long time. To keep the curls healthy longer, you must adhere to the recommendations for care.

  • Immediately after lamination, do not use a hair dryer, curling iron, ironing machine.
  • Use sulfate-free shampoos that have natural ingredients in your composition, protect your hair and scalp, nourish and moisturize.
  • After each shampoo, apply a balm to facilitate combing.
  • Get a comb made from natural materials.
  • Once every 3-4 days, do oil masks.
ATTENTION: Follow the rules when using professional tools. Lamination using natural folk components does not have a long-lasting effect, so it lasts only until the first shampoo.

Opinions of cosmetologists about home lamination

The vast majority of cosmetologists do not recommend lamination at home. In their opinion, the opposite effect may occur and the hair will become brittle and brittle. The procedure is best entrusted to the master.

Beauticians recommend applying the method if the hair:

  • Dry and brittle.
  • The structure is porous.
  • Salt at the roots.
  • Missing volume and shine.
  • Set, damaged by perm.
  • There is electrification.

Lamination is a useful procedure that resuscitates and transforms hair. There is a second type - biolamination. Both methods involve the use of natural ingredients. The difference is that the preparations for conventional lamination contain a protein complex. And biolamenation is the latest Japanese achievement that allows you to create the effect of "smooth silk". As part of its cellulose-containing extracts of avocado, bamboo or dandelion.
