Brazilian blowout and how it works for hair

Brazilian blowout is a treatment used to straighten hair. This treatment binds protein to the outer layer of hair, which helps smooth, protect, soften hair.

In detail, this brazilian blowout process actually uses creams containing proteins from a mixture of amino acids. Before starting, your hair will be washed and dried up to 80 percent. Then, apply keratin cream throughout your hair and let it sit until it dries for a while.

Now, after the keratin cream product dries the hair is heated with a flat iron, which aims to make the hair look more straight and regular. It is in this process that the keratin is expected to enter into the hair follicles. So with these natural ingredients the hair is not damaged even though it is heated with a vise.

After the hair is creamed and straightened with a tool, the hair will be rinsed with conditioner. Then dried with a blow system, to make hair more tidy and volume. The process only takes about 90 minutes.

Although claimed to use natural ingredients for hair, the process of straightening this type of brazilian hair still has its own dangers.

Formaldehyde, an ingredient used for embalming or preserving bodies, is found in the content of Brazilian blowout creams.Formaldehyde (also referred to as formaldehyde) should only be used at a dose of 0.2 percent in the use of cosmetic products. Unfortunately in Brazilian blowout creams, users far exceed the dose limit, which is as much as 8 to 12 percent in each of the different product brands.

In the test results, this material can cause certain side effects such as sore eyes, difficulty breathing, and cases of hair loss.

In addition, this formaldehyde material is also associated with the risk of cancer and is classified as an ingredient that has the potential as a carcinogen (trigger cancer).Experts cannot yet know exactly what the long-term effects of formaldehyde have on human health. However, in a laboratory that examines the effects of formaldehyde on animals, it has been proven that formaldehyde causes cancer.

Exposure to high levels of formaldehyde due to work environment factors (factory or medical workers, for example) has also been linked to a number of types of cancer in humans. However, the long-term effects of formaldehyde in small quantities are still unknown.
