Keratin Hair Mask, restorative and regenerating with ultra-fast acting keratin

Keratin is a naturally occurring protein present in hair, playing a vital role as a fundamental structural component. For this reason, treatments containing keratin are in high demand, as they play a significant role in hair repair and are crucial for overall hair health. This ingredient smoothens and strengthens the hair, providing it with a silky and radiant appearance.

The presence of keratin facilitates hair revitalization by managing frizz, repairing split ends, and neutralizing static, all contributing to achieving well-managed and frizz-free mane.

The producs of the Keratin line by abril et nature contain keratin protein fragments of varying sizes. Some of these fragments are larger, while others are smaller. These variable dimensions enable the products to effectively act on different parts of the hair and within different layers of its structure.

Larger fragments tend to deposit on the external surface of the hair, sealing and repairing the cuticle. On the other hand, smaller fragments have the ability to penetrate the cuticle and reach the interior of the hair fiber, where they can repair and strengthen from the inside out. Together, this combination of keratin protein fragments of different sizes provides a comprehensive and effective hair treatment for various issues like frizz, dryness, and hair damage.

How can I determine if my hair needs a keratin boosting mask?

There are certain signs that might indicate your hair requires keratin, such as lack of shine, appearance of split ends, hair breakage, or a rough and brittle texture. If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, we recommend using hair care products containing keratin to help strengthen and repair damaged hair.

What causes keratin loss in hair?

Keratin loss in hair can result from several factors, including genetics, environmental stressors, nutritional deficiencies, and medical conditions. Genetics influence how much keratin your body naturally produces and how well your hair retains it. Environmental factors like excessive heat styling, UV exposure, and pollution can damage the hair's outer layer, the cuticle, leading to keratin loss. Inadequate nutrition, particularly a lack of protein and essential vitamins like biotin, can hinder the body's ability to produce sufficient keratin. Certain medical conditions such as autoimmune disorders, hormonal imbalances, and chronic illnesses can disrupt hair's keratin synthesis. Additionally, aging can contribute to reduced keratin levels as the body's overall production capacity declines over time. Proper hair care, a balanced diet, and medical guidance can help mitigate these factors and maintain optimal keratin levels in your hair.

Do all hair types have the same keratin structure?

Not all hair types have the same keratin structure. Hair can differ in terms of thickness, texture, elasticity, and other factors that can impact its structure. Thus, it's important to select hair care products that cater to your hair's specific needs to achieve optimal results. Some products contain various protein types and other beneficial ingredients, especially useful for certain hair types like fine, damaged, or curly hair.
