What is nanoplastics?

Nanoplastics — is a salon procedure for permanent straightening and restoration of hair structure using amino acid-based compounds.

When searching for an answer to the question of what nanoplasty is, it's important to understand that the procedure is a modern, more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional keratin straightening. The main visual result is the creation of a perfectly smooth, heavy, and glossy finish, known as the glass hair effect. The procedure completely eliminates frizz.

The effect of amino acid-based formulas is cumulative. On average, the results last for three to six months, depending on the hair's original structure and porosity.

Distinctive features

The main advantage of nanoplastics is the safe composition of the products. Unlike keratin, they do not contain formaldehyde or its derivatives. The main active ingredients are organic acids, hydrolyzed keratin, collagen, and silk proteins.

The formula's nano-sized molecules allow them to penetrate deep into the hair cortex. They restructure disulfide bonds from the inside out, rather than simply coating the hair with a film from the outside. Thanks to its organic composition, there's no harsh odor or toxic fumes during the procedure and when the formula evaporates with a straightening iron.

A key feature of this method is its interaction with pigment. Due to its high amino acid content, nanoplastics can lighten colored hair by one or two shades, partially washing out the artificial dye.

How to care

To maintain the results after the procedure, it's necessary to adjust your home care routine. Cleansing should be done exclusively with sulfate-free shampoos. They are gentle on the scalp and don't strip the active ingredients from the hair structure.

The nanoplastic solution works through thermal activation. After each wash, dry your hair with a hairdryer using warm air, directing the flow strictly from top to bottom to seal the cuticle.

The stylistic integration of sleek hair opens up new wardrobe possibilities. Perfectly straight locks after nanoplasty perfectly complement a strict business dress code. This style highlights the architectural cut of jackets with a sharp shoulder line and serves as a perfect backdrop for massive, sculptural jewelry.
