How to choose the best reconstruction masks

Do you know why that expensive hair treatment, recommended by your best friend, didn't work out for you? Because each hair is unique and has its own characteristics. So, to choose the ideal hair reconstruction mask, you should consider a few points. That's what we're going to show you in this article. See below!

Check out the active ingredients

As we've seen, hair treatment involves hydration, nutrition and reconstruction, so it's essential to know what your hair really needs. So, if your hair just needs a good hydration, choose masks that have, in their composition, dexpanthenol, aloe vera and glycerin.

Now, if you need to nourish your locks, prefer those that contain ceramides and, mainly, vegetable oils, like argan, shea butter and avocado. Finally, if your hair is asking for that reconstruction, opt for products based on keratin and amino acids. Let's see below the properties of each one of these substances.

Keratins: protect and restore the hair shaft

Keratin is the protein responsible for protecting and increasing the resistance of some structures in our organism, such as hair. This protein is composed of 15 amino acids "led" by cysteine.

Cysteine is a molecule that helps build tissues, muscles, hormones and enzymes in our body. This amino acid is produced by our body, but can have its production reduced if there is a high demand for energy, such as during intense physical activity or illness.

In hair, the function of keratin is to protect and restore the nutrients of the threads, preventing the progressive dehydration of the hair shaft, which gives that dry aspect in hair. Thus, the correct use of keratin restores the threads and results in hydrated, beautiful, silky and healthy hair.

Amino acids: strengthen and improve elasticity

According to the specialists, there are 5 amino acids considered essential for hair health. One of them is Cysteine (it binds hair proteins, helping hair growth, reducing volume and giving more shine, besides strengthening the thread fibers).

Another important amino acid is Methionine (increases the blood supply to the hair follicles and scalp), followed by Arginine (promotes the growth and conservation of hair fibers). We also have Cystine (fights hair loss, acting directly on the scalp); and Tyrosine (collaborates in hair coloring and acts directly on hair loss).

Now that you have read this far, follow a first tip: choose hair restoration masks that have keratin, because all amino acids are present in it.

Arginine: facilitates the circulation of nutrients

Did you know that the stress of everyday life, poor diet and hormonal imbalance can leave your hair dull and brittle? If this is happening, it is good to start treatment with a reconstruction mask that has arginine.

This amino acid, which is also present in keratin, is essential for hair health. It is responsible for stimulating microcirculation of the scalp, contributing to the improvement of nutrient exchange between the hair bulb and the thread.

However, arginine is not produced by the human body, so it must be used as a complement. This amino acid, by the way, has the power to close the scales of the wire, making the hair stronger and healthier.

Creatine: enhances keratin

Creatine, an old acquaintance of workout and gym lovers, has been increasingly used in hair reconstruction masks. This is because it enhances the effects of keratin by having smaller molecules, being more easily absorbed by the hair fiber.

Creatine is indicated to combat the fragility of the strands and the lack of shine of the hair. In addition, due to its composition, creatine assists in the growth of healthy and soft locks.

It also acts to combat hair porosity, caused by chemical procedures or the constant use of hair dryers and flat irons. This substance acts directly in strengthening the hair fiber.

Collagen: strength and elasticity

Collagen restores hair that has lost its natural moisture and is weakened. It is the most important component in regenerating the hair fiber, restoring the hair's natural flexibility.

Do you know how to identify if your hair is weak? Pay attention to this very important tip that, for sure, will greatly influence the choice of your reconstruction mask: take a strand of your hair and pull it.

If it gets frizzy and does not return to normal, it is because it has lost elasticity and your hair fibers may be damaged. In this case, it would be important to choose a mask rich in collagen and fast absorbing.

Elastin: elasticity

Elastin is responsible for forming more malleable fibers, recovering the flexibility, elasticity and resistance of the threads. It also acts in the restructuring and protection of the hair against the action of external agents.

Although it is still little known, elastin brings another advantage: it seals and realigns the strands, preventing breakage. This protein, however, is only produced by the body until youth and needs to be replenished.

In addition, it also provides the rejuvenation of the scalp, the hair bulbs and, consequently, the strands. Thus, in partnership with collagen, elastin helps prevent premature aging.

Hydrolyzed proteins: form protection and maintain hydration of the wire

The hydrolyzed protein is the one divided into smaller particles by the hydrolysis process, facilitating its absorption. There are nine types of hydrolyzed proteins offered in the cosmetic market: wheat, silk, milk, soy, glycoprotein, collagen protein, keratin, animal and vegetable.

Very damaged and porous hair needs hydrolyzed protein for its recovery. There are three types of hair, classified according to porosity: medium or normal (needs a balance between hydration and the application of protein); high (requires deep treatment with protein) and low (requires treatment with light protein).

Keep in mind your hair type

For the treatment with reconstructive masks to be effective, it is important to know what your hair type is. See below the classification according to experts:

- Type 1 hair - straight. They are divided into type 1A (fine, light and flowing hair, easy to tangle), 1B (mixes fine and thick hair) and 1C (shiny hair, with thick texture and heavy);

- Type 2 - wavy hair is divided into 2A (almost straight, with fine texture and tendency to oiliness), 2B (with frizz, heaviness and S-shaped waves) and 2C (thick hair, with volume and tight curl);

- Type 3 - curly hair. They are classified as 3A (heavy with loose and open curls), 3B (wavy root, well defined and voluminous) and 3C (fine with tight curls);

- Hair type 4 - curly. They are grouped into 4A (curly hair from the root and with more volume), 4B (fine, fragile and with small curls) and 4C (without definition and with a lot of volume).

Give preference to paraben-free masks

Parabens are synthetic preservatives used in the beauty industry to increase the shelf life of the product. However, this substance can cause irritation and allergies on the scalp.

In addition, the continuous use of paraben in reconstruction masks can cause premature aging of the threads and increase hair loss. Therefore, according to experts, it is good to avoid products that have these preservatives.

Check cost effectiveness before buying large packs

To check the cost-effectiveness before buying large packages of hair reconstruction masks, you need to be attentive and check, for example, the expiration date. This can be 6, 8 or 12 months after opening the product.

Other points to be considered when buying are the quantity and frequency with which you intend to apply the product. This will depend on the state of your hair and the treatment schedule, which is divided into hydration, nutrition and reconstruction.

Check if the manufacturer performs animal testing

Although the Brazilian legislation does not prohibit the testing of cosmetic products on animals, consumers, in general, have preferred vegan and Cruelty Free brands. This seal, of international character, is given to companies and industries that have eradicated or have never used the efficacy test of products on animals.

The Cruelty Free seal is given by PETA - People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, an international NGO that already has 2 million members worldwide. The institution is especially dedicated to animal rights.

Apply the conditioner, which will close the cuticles, to have a better result. The mask should be applied once or twice a week.
