Smoothing Treatment Hair Care: How Sweat Effects Your Smoothing Treatment

Smoothing Treatment Hair Care: How Sweat ffects Your Smoothing Treatment

Smoothing treatment hair care and perspiration is the topic of this week’s Q&A. Before you book your next smoothing salon treatment, be sure to examine your lifestyle and exercise regimen.

Whoop, whoop, Happy Hump day! Since it is Wednesday, it’s time for another Q&A with Ask the Pro Stylist. During a recent keratin demonstration, lifestyle concerns were the focus: specifically smoothing treatment hair care and perspiration. If you are a fitness fanatic, working out daily and building up a considerable amount of sweat, you might want to rethink your next salon service.

Many treatments require sulfate free or sodium chloride free shampoo. Additionally, the products warn against swimming in the ocean and/or chlorine. But, the thought that perspiration plays into the endurance of the costly salon service is relatively nonexistent. Although it seems pretty obvious, most individuals do not factor sweat into smoothing treatment after care.

Sweat is mostly water. Within the water are trace amounts of minerals, lactic acid, and urea. Although the mineral content varies, some measurable concentrations include sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Therefore, if you are a workout warrior, the production of excess bodily sodium could reduce the length of time your smoothing treatment endures.

Smoothing treatments are costly. However, if money is no object, by all means, workout away. But, your salon visits could increase if you do. I personally would rather take the extra time to blow my hair out and stay fit than receive more keratin treatments. This is a balance and budget concern that must be addressed during the consultation.
