Amit explained that hair Botox is, basically, a deep conditioning treatment filled with proteins, vitamins, and antioxidants. Hair Botox coats the outer layer of your hair and seals in these nutrients,” he said, adding that it usually lasts 2 to 4 months. By comparison, he portrayed keratin treatments as the process of applying keratin, which is a natural hair protein, often combined with harmful chemicals like formaldehyde, banned in many countries because of carcinogenic properties.
While these treatments can temporarily improve hair-frizz reduction and make hair smoother, Amit said he is concerned about long-term effects of such treatments. “The goodness in both treatments is locked in with the use of heat,” Amit explained. “Too much heat alters the structure of the proteins in your hair, causing potential long-term damage.” He added that though the treatments may have quick aesthetic benefits, repeated treatments will only continue to damage hair.
