If you’re looking to get thermal reconditioning done, you’re probably wondering how long it lasts. Let’s take a look.

Thermal reconditioning is a process by which your hair is made straight, silky and shiny. This takes time and your stylist will let you know from the get go how long the entire process takes, as it varies by stylist. Some take 3 hours, others up to 5 hours. It depends on several things including length of hair, type of hair, the chemical used and the stylist’s experience.

Once it’s done and you’re flowing with beautiful locks, how long does it last? Usually the treatment last up to several months, as it is a permanent solution. However you have to keep in mind that new hair re-growth will come out in natural state, meaning if you’re hair is naturally curly this is how new growth will come out. So a touch up will be needed to maintain the straight look.

It’s best practice to develop a relationship with your stylist, so he or she can keep you in the loop as to what works for your specific situation. Your friendly and helpful stylist will take a good look at your locks and determine a plan of action. Feel free to ask questions and know what it is you’re getting into, as far as before, during and after thermal treatment.

To recap, keep in mind that hair length, type of hair and the specific chemical used - will determine how long the thermal reconditioning treatment takes and how long it will last after. But most treatments last for several months.
