Hair Smoothening

Hair smoothening is a temporary technique that relaxes your hair and leaves it free from frizz. It involves saturating your hair with a solution and then using a flat iron to lock in the straight hair. Formaldehyde is applied to the hair, which breaks the hydrogen bonds of the keratin molecule.

Excess and continuous use of harmful chemicals directly on your hair during the hair smoothening process weakens your hair follicles. This results in hair detaching from its roots, causing hair fall. It may also cause your hair's natural strength to weaken, which further causes the hair to break.
