Hair Steamer - Hair Treatment and How it works

Hair steamer's are becoming more and more popular and they definitely get people talking with the nice cloud of steam hovering above the steamer.

They are more widely used for deep hair treatments such as scalp cleansing, protein moisturizing, color treatments and many other treatments to give us healthier and happy hair and scalp.

The reason why hair steamers work well for hair treatment is that it improves circulation with the steam. The heat will open up the follicles and hair shaft cuticles allowing moisture, as well as your hair treatment product, to enter the hair shaft.

How long and often should it be used?

This is a very common question and is very specific to the type of hair treatment you are doing and the level of damage your hair has.

Generally, hair is steamed no more than 2 times in a week and for for about 20 to 30 minutes to get the full benefit from it. Some sessions can go over and hour for more damaged hair.

After your hair steamer treatment you hair will feel a little heavier and full of moisture, during this time handle your hair with care , wait till your hair and scalp have cooled down until styling.
