Keratin vs. Hair Botox: What's the Difference?
Keratin smooths frizz by coating the hair, while hair botox repairs and rebuilds it from within. Here's how to choose the right one.
Keratin reduces frizz by adding protein that coats the hair cuticle, then sealing it in with heat so the protein bonds to each strand.
Hair botox, on the other hand, focuses on repairing and restoring hair from the inside out. It fills in the gaps within the strand with ingredients like vitamins, protein, collagen, and natural oils.
Keratin is ideal for frizzy hair that's hard to style, while hair botox is best for hair that's badly damaged from repeated chemical treatments, or hair so fragile it needs the most intensive nourishment possible.
