Why does hair need special care after straightening?
The straightening process changes the structure of the hair, making it smooth and easy to style. However, the process can weaken the hair fiber and leave it more vulnerable to damage such as dryness, breakage, and split ends. In addition, improper use of products or lack of care can cause the hair to lose its shine and luster.

The perfect hair care routine after straightening
Using an appropriate shampoo
Hair after straightening needs a gentle, salt-free shampoo that helps maintain the hair and prevent damage to the straightening result. Our " Dry Hair and After Straightening Shampoo " is perfect for this purpose - it moisturizes, strengthens the hair and maintains smoothness over time.
Nourishing mask once or twice a week
Hair masks are a must after straightening. Our Genesis Shea Treatment Mask gives hair added moisture, elasticity and shine, and repairs any damage caused during the straightening process.
Using heat-protecting products
If you blow-dry your hair or style it with other heat tools, use products that protect against heat damage. Our leave-in Shea Mask is a great solution – it not only protects hair but also helps with easy combing and adds softness and volume.
Washing your hair too often can dry out your hair and weaken the straightening effect. Try washing your hair 2-3 times a week and use dry shampoo if necessary.
Hair end care
The ends of your hair are the most vulnerable part after straightening. Our Genesis Shea Oil provides a protective layer, keeping hair soft and preventing split ends.
More tips for maintaining smooth and healthy hair
Avoid tangles: Comb your hair gently with a wide, flat brush that is suitable for straight hair.
Stay hydrated: Use products that moisturize throughout the day.
Prevent damage from pool and sea water: Before you get in the pool, apply a mask or shea oil to protect your hair from chlorine.
