Can Keratin Treatments Damage Your Hair?

Here’s What You Need to Know


As busy women on the Main Line, whether you’re juggling boardroom meetings, PTA schedules, or the beautiful chaos of raising little ones, finding time for self-care can feel impossible. Your hair—your crown—deserves TLC, but the thought of long salon visits might seem like just another thing on your to-do list. That’s where keratin treatments, especially with Concihairge’s in-home salon service, can change the game.

But wait—what about the buzz that keratin treatments can damage your hair? If you’ve been Googling late at night while folding laundry or reviewing a presentation, wondering, “Is this right for me?”—we’ve got you.

Here’s the truth about keratin treatments, how they work, and how you can enjoy smooth, frizz-free hair without sacrificing its health.

What Is a Keratin Treatment, Really?

Keratin treatments are like a spa day for your hair—a way to smooth, strengthen, and tame frizz while restoring the natural keratin your hair loses over time due to styling, weather, and stress (yes, stress affects your hair, too).

At Concihairge, we offer three Lasio keratin treatments tailored to different hair types and lifestyles:

  • Tropic Treatment: A gentle, formaldehyde-free option that leaves curls softer and frizz-free for up to 3 months. Perfect if you love your natural curls but want to tame them.
  • One-Day Treatment: Need quick, dramatic results? This treatment removes frizz and most curls, lasting up to 4 months.
  • Mocha Silk Treatment: Ideal for dry, damaged hair, this formula restores moisture and strength, leaving you with shiny, manageable locks.

But the big question remains: Can keratin treatments cause damage?

Myth vs. Reality: Can Keratin Treatments Damage Your Hair?

Let’s clear up any confusion. Keratin treatments are specifically designed to repair and strengthen your hair, not harm it—as long as they’re applied properly and with high-quality products. While keratin itself is a natural protein found in your hair and isn’t inherently harmful, the process often involves the use of heat and chemicals, which could lead to dryness, breakage, or split ends if overdone or applied to hair that is already compromised. This is why consulting a professional and selecting a premium treatment are essential steps to minimize any potential risks.

Here’s how to ensure your keratin treatment works for you, not against you:

  1. Choose the Right Products
    Not all keratin treatments are created equal. Many salon-grade treatments, like those we use at Concihairge, prioritize your hair’s health. Our Lasio formulas are gentle and effective, with low formaldehyde levels (0.02% or none at all) to ensure safe, stunning results.
  2. Work with Trained Experts
    Application matters. Our expert stylists are trained to assess your hair type and recommend the best treatment for your needs. They’ll also ensure the treatment is applied and sealed properly, minimizing the risk of overprocessing or dryness.
  3. Post-Treatment Care is Key
    Keratin-treated hair thrives with the right aftercare. That’s why we gift every client a complimentary set of keratin-safe shampoo and conditioner to help your results last longer and keep your hair healthy.
  4. Don’t Overdo It
    Over-processing can damage your hair. With treatments that last up to 4 months, there’s no need to frequently reapply keratin. Stick to a schedule recommended by your stylist.
