Smoothing Treatment Aftercare Guide

So you’ve just had your smoothing treatment — Nanoplastia, BTX, Vegan Keratin or Bio-Lamination — at Artistic Trendz.

Your hair is now smoother, softer, shinier and more manageable. Proper aftercare is key to maintaining your results. How you wash, style and care for your hair after the treatment can make a big difference to how long the smoothness, shine and manageability last.

1. Use Sulfate-Free Shampoo

Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo after your smoothing treatment to help maintain moisture, smoothness and shine for longer.

2. Avoid Chlorine and Saltwater

Chlorine in swimming pools and saltwater can affect the longevity of your smoothing treatment. If you swim, protect your hair where possible and rinse it thoroughly with fresh water afterwards.

3. Confirm Colour Timing With Your Stylist

Smoothing treatments may affect the tone of coloured hair. Colour or toning is generally best planned after a few washes, but timing depends on your hair condition and the service you received. Ask your stylist before colouring, toning or bleaching your hair.

4. Deep Condition Weekly

Use a nourishing or deep-conditioning mask once a week to help maintain moisture, softness and the overall condition of your hair.

5. Avoid Excessive Heat Styling

Flat irons and curling tools can be used after your smoothing treatment, but frequent high heat may affect the condition of your hair and the longevity of your results. Always use a heat protectant and follow your stylist’s temperature guidance.

6. Use a Silk Pillowcase

A silk pillowcase can help reduce friction while you sleep, which may help minimise tangling and keep your hair feeling smoother and softer.

7. Book Your Next Treatment When Needed

The longevity of your results depends on the smoothing treatment you received, your hair type, washing frequency and aftercare. Ask your stylist to assess your hair before booking your next smoothing treatment.
