The hairdresser explains how to take care of the hair and prevent the chemical cut caused by the extreme aggression to the strands
Excessive use of chemicals on hair can make it very weak and brittle. The most recent case that went viral on social media was that of singer Luísa Sonza. The artist, famous for shots “Sentadona” and “Cachorrinhas”, have undergone a chemical cut due to the damage caused by the hair bleaching process.
Caused by a severe wire break, chemical cutting occurs when a chemical substance incompatible with the hair is used or when it is already overloadedmainly due to excessive discoloration or straightening.
“A mistake made by most people is not respecting the recovery times of the hair fiber before performing a new chemical procedure. This greatly affects the health of the hair” explains Cleiton Vítor, hairdresser specialist in hair products and founding partner of Felps professional.
How to avoid chemical cutting
Although chemical cutting is a very common procedure among women, Vítor clarifies that there are some precautions that help avoid this problem. The main one is the thread testwhich must always be done before any chemical process.
The strand test is done by separating a small strand of hair, applying the product in question, and waiting for the results. In this way it is possible to know whether or not the hair is prepared to receive the application of new products, which guarantees a safer hair transformation.
Another important tip to keep your hair healthy is to follow and maintain a capillary program that helps hydrate, nourish and rebuild the hair damage caused by hair procedures. It is also essential to avoid excessive use of heat sources such as straighteners and chemicals in the hair. “The most important thing is to respect the limits of the threads so that they always remain strong and vigorous,” concludes the professional.
