GlossaryHeat Treatment

process of applying controlled heat to alter hair's structure

Heat treatment, also known as thermal treatment, refers to the process of applying controlled heat to hair to alter its structure, texture, or appearance. This can include methods like blow-drying, flat ironing, or using curling irons. For professionals, understanding the precise temperature and duration is crucial to avoid damaging the hair's keratin structure, which can lead to breakage or increased porosity.
