What is keratin and where is it obtained from? Is it a natural or chemical substance? How was the term Brazilian keratin created? And how is it related to sheep? :-)

Keratin is a protein that is naturally found in the human body. It’s an essential building block of hair and nails. 80% of each individual hair is made up of keratin and its even distribution in the hair follicle is responsible for the overall look and quality of the hair. Your hair is straight if it is evenly distributed and, on the contrary, it is curly if its distribution is uneven.

Keratin used in the cosmetics industry is obtained by hydrolysation of sheep’s wool. The liquid that is created during this process has emollient, smoothing and softening effects, and is therefore added to shampoos, masks and face creams.

Keratin began to be used for hair styling in Brazil. Brazilian women are known to love to pretty themselves up and are considered some of the most beautiful women in the world. Due to the humid Brazilian weather, they often damaged their hair by flat ironing, so it’s no wonder that it immediately became a very popular procedure there which gradually spread throughout the world.

Brazilian keratin is a non-chemical treatment that straightens hair without damaging it. It treats damaged hair and restores its healthy look. Sometimes, the term Brazilian keratin is confused with chemical straightening, which damages the hair. It’s important to pay attention to what kind of keratin you use for straightening and whether it’s really a natural and safe product.
