Does lamination damage your hair or is it good for you? Truth and benefits of this treatment
Hair lamination is an increasingly popular treatment among women who want shiny, healthy and harmonious-looking hair.
But what is true about lamination? What are the risks and what are its benefits? Are there any contraindications? Let’s find out together!
What is hair lamination?
Hair lamination is a cosmetic procedure that consists of wrapping individual strands with a protective layer, making them shinier and healthier. You should know that the lamination treatment is suitable for both those with natural hair and those who have colored or bleached it. Another important element is that lamination does not change the structure of the hair and is transparent, which means that it does not alter the original color. It is always important, however, to use good quality products.
How does hair lamination work?
Mood Hair lab personalizes the treatment based on the characteristics of each hair and the needs of each client. However, if we want to define the operations of the rolling work, the stages are essentially the following:
- Preparation – To begin with, it is advisable to use an alkaline shampoo in order to facilitate the opening of the micro-scales present on the capillary surface and temporarily increase its porosity.
- Application – Once this is done, it is necessary to apply the lamination product directly on the locks where it must be left free to act for approximately 30 minutes. At Mood Hair Lab for lamination we use collagen and extra-gloss products from Aloxxi.
- Flushing – Once the right exposure time has passed, proceed with a thorough rinse.
- Sealing – Sealing is a fundamental step in the hair lamination treatment. This process serves to lock in moisture, nourish the hair and protect it from environmental damage. Sealing creates a protective barrier around the hair shaft, keeping nutrients in and impurities out. The result will be healthier, stronger and shinier hair. Sealing can also prolong the effect of lamination treatment.
Benefits of hair lamination
The benefits of lamination are many. If the treatment is done in a workmanlike manner and with high-level preparations, the hair will emerge reinvigorated and rejuvenated. Clearly, every person has different hair so it’s not always possible to generalize. However, the main positive effects of lamination include:
- Shine and brightness – From an aesthetic point of view, the hair will be immediately shinier with a pleasant and proportionate mirror effect.
- Hair health – From the point of view of hair health, hair lamination can induce numerous beneficial effects. First of all, it can help improve the structure of your hair, making it stronger and less prone to breakage. The treatment can also help protect hair from damage caused by environmental factors such as exposure to sunlight and air pollution. Finally, lamination can make it easier to maintain proper moisture in your hair, thus preventing dryness, frizz and split ends.
- Duration – Quality products, such as those used in our salon, retain their benefits for more than a month and a half.
To answer the question of this in-depth analysis, we conclude by saying that lamination does not damage the hair but, if done with quality products and by expert hands, it helps to keep it robust and fascinating for a long time.
