“Hair bixiplasty” procedure: what is it and what are the main components of the composition used?
Concept

The list of hair restoration and straightening procedures only increases over the years. The compositions are changed or supplemented, technologies and formulas are improved, and the negative impact on the hair structure is reduced. So, today we will talk about bixiplasty hair.
What is bixiplasty hair?
Bixiplasty is a reconstructive hair straightening procedure that is performed in two stages. With the help of bixiplasty, you can discipline fluffy, unruly, porous hair and give it a healthier appearance and strengthen its structure.
This procedure involves deep hair restoration, bio-straightening, during which heat treatment is applied. During the procedure, all voids in the structure are filled with nutrients and then sealed there, similar to keratin straightening.
Controversial question: is this procedure combined with coloring?
Procedures such as keratin straightening, nanoplasty or bixiplasty cannot be done on the same day as coloring. What is recommended? It is better to carry out staining 3 days before the bixiplasty procedure or 2 weeks after it is performed. It is especially important to do coloring first and then bixiplasty if bleaching with powder is planned (which is more aggressive).
Regarding lamination, it can be done immediately after dyeing; the composition will not cause a chemical reaction and the color will last longer.
What components are included in bixiplasty products?
The main difference between the composition for bixiplasty and keratin straightening, for example, is the larger amount of beneficial oils. Oil is the main component of all formulations. Often, one composition includes a large number of oils such as bishi, babassu, prakaxi, Brazil nut oil and more.
The oil of the South American bishi bush is responsible for deep restoration and care. It is rich in proteins and fatty acids.
Brazil nut oil has a high selenium content, which has a restorative effect on damaged hair and strengthens its roots.
Keratin. It’s hard to imagine hair straightening procedures without keratin. It is similar to the main protein in hair and is used to fill the void where the cuticle has broken down.
Also, most products for bixiplasty include the sulfur amino acid cysteine. It reduces hair fragility and electrification. And the preservative phenoxyethanol gives straightening and mirror shine to the curls.
What rules must be followed on the first day after the procedure?
Similar to the requirements after keratin straightening, in the first day after bixiplasty it is not recommended to pin up your hair, do complex long-lasting hairstyles, braid your hair, or even tuck strands behind your ears. Otherwise, creases cannot be avoided.
Likewise, it is not recommended to curl your hair with curling irons for a week after bixiplasty was performed. Everything to ensure that the effect of the procedure lasts as long as possible. With proper care, the effect will last for several months, and as the manufacturers promise, up to six months.
