Why is Keratin the Shining Star of Summer?

Why is Keratin the Shining Star of Summer?

Keratin is a fibrous structural protein that makes up the outer layer of human hair, skin, and nails. It’s essential for maintaining the strength, elasticity, and overall health of hair. Keratin treatments can be particularly beneficial for your hair, especially during the summer.

What are Specific Benefits of Keratin During Summer?

  1. Protection from Humidity: Summer humidity can cause hair to become frizzy and unmanageable. Keratin treatments smooth the hair and seal the cuticle, making it less susceptible to humidity and maintaining a sleek look.

  2. UV Protection: Keratin treatments can form a protective barrier around the hair shaft, offering some protection against UV radiation from the sun, which can cause hair to become dry and brittle.

  3. Chlorine and Saltwater Protection: Exposure to chlorine in pools and saltwater at the beach can strip the hair of its natural oils and keratin, leading to dryness and damage. Keratin treatments can help fortify the hair against these harsh elements, maintaining moisture and strength.

  4. Easier Styling: Summer activities often lead to more frequent washing and styling. Keratin treatments can reduce the time needed to style hair by making it smoother and more manageable, which is particularly convenient during the busy summer months.

  5. Heat Protection: Although it’s advisable to limit the use of heat styling tools during the summer, keratin treatments can provide some protection when using them, as they help to reinforce the hair’s structure and reduce heat-induced damage.
