There are two hair straightening techniques using chemicals that are widely used in beauty salons, for example smoothing and rebonding.
It turns out that these two things have a significant difference, you know.
What's the difference like? Take a look at the following Spa Style article!
1. Hair type
If your hair type is curly, curly and unruly, then rebonding is a very suitable method to apply to get maximum results.
However, for hair that is naturally straight, or slightly wavy, fluffy, then the suitable method is smoothing.
2. Type of drug
In the smoothing method, the medication used contains vitamins and keratin, so it doesn't change the original hair structure.
This method will make hair smoother and straighter than before.
While in rebonding, there are two types of drugs used, namely relaxers and neutralizers.
Both of these drugs are used to change the structure of the hair from curly to straight.
3. Work process
The smoothing process uses chemicals with a soft or mild level.
Because it aims to cover the cuticle or the outer part of the hair, thereby reducing tangles and straightening hair without changing the original hair structure.
Meanwhile, rebonding will make hair that was originally curly be given a hair straightener that is strong enough.
This drug is allowed to penetrate until it penetrates the hair cuticle tissue to repair and change the hair structure to become straight.
4. Final result
In the smoothing method, the resulting straight hair looks naturally straight and soft.
While rebonding, even though the end result is equally straight, in this method the resulting straight hair tends to be stiffer.
