The KAREOL Brazilian Extra Repairing Keratin Kit – Sensitive Hair is a complete Brazilian keratin and straightening treatment for fragile, damaged, and sensitized hair . The treatment makes the hair smoother for a long time, reduces frizz, and gives the hair more softness, shine, strength, and elasticity.
The Extra Repairing formula contains, among other things, plant-based keratin, an amino acid complex, argan oil, and bamboo extract . KAREOL has specifically developed this variant for hair that is fragile or damaged and therefore requires a customized straightening treatment.
When applied correctly, the smoothing result according to KAREOL can last up to 12 weeks .
Not all hair has the same needs during a keratin or straightening treatment. Within the KAREOL Brazilian Keratin line, the Extra Repairing variant is specifically intended for fragile and sensitized hair .
This variant is therefore particularly interesting for:
The treatment combines smoothing, frizz control, and care . The goal is to bring unruly and frizzy hair better under control while simultaneously supporting the condition and appearance of fragile hair lengths.
After the treatment, the hair feels smoother and softer, gains more shine, and is easier to style and manage.
KAREOL also mentions increased strength and elasticity as part of the result of the Extra Repairing treatment.
The kit contains the four products needed to perform the KAREOL treatment:
This means you do not need to combine separate shampoo, straightening cream, and after-treatment products from different lines for the actual treatment.
KAREOL uses vegan plant-based keratin in combination with an amino restore complex in the Extra Repairing formula.
These ingredients are part of the caring formula for fragile and sensitized hair. As a result, the treatment is aimed not only at smoothing the hair but also at a nourished, supple, and stronger-feeling result.
The Extra Repairing formula also contains argan oil and bamboo extract . These ingredients complement the keratin and amino acid components and contribute to the nourishing positioning of this Sensitive Hair variant.
This is relevant for hair that has become fragile and dry due to previous treatments, styling, or other influences, and for which a regular, high-strength straightening treatment might not be the most suitable choice.
According to the manufacturer, the KAREOL Brazilian Keratin straightening products are formaldehyde-free . This is an important distinction when choosing a Brazilian keratin treatment.
However, being formaldehyde-free does not mean that a straightening treatment can be performed without precautions. The treatment consists of various chemical and thermal steps and must therefore always be applied exactly according to the instructions for use.
KAREOL indicates a result of up to 12 weeks for Brazilian Keratin treatments.
The actual duration may vary from person to person. Factors such as hair condition, hair structure, washing frequency, care products used, and the correct execution of the treatment can influence how long the smooth result is maintained.
The KAREOL Post-Straightening Shampoo and Conditioner have been developed for maintenance after the treatment.
Always read the enclosed user manual completely before use.
Wash the hair with the included Deep Cleansing Shampoo . Rinse the shampoo thoroughly.
Dry the washed hair with a towel. According to the official KAREOL instructions, approximately 50% moisture should remain in the hair .
Divide the hair into small, manageable sections. This allows the Straightening Cream to be applied accurately and evenly.
Apply the Extra Repairing Straightening Cream strand by strand using a paintbrush.
Avoid contact with the scalp. Then distribute the product evenly with your hands over each treated hair section.
Leave the Straightening Cream on for approximately 15 to 20 minutes so that the product can distribute well over the hair fiber.
Then rinse the hair with water only . According to KAREOL, the Straightening Cream does not need to be completely removed from the hair during this step.
Next, blow-dry the hair downwards. A flat brush or comb can be used for this.
KAREOL advises against blow-drying the hair completely , but to leave it slightly damp.
Divide the hair into small sections again and carefully treat each strand with a straightener until no residue of the Straightening Cream remains.
Work precisely with small sections of hair. Always follow the instructions supplied with the kit for the correct temperature and number of passes, and adjust the heat according to the condition of the hair.
Allow the hair to return to room temperature after styling before proceeding with the finishing treatment.
Next, wash the hair with the included Post-Straightening Shampoo to remove the treatment. If necessary, the hair can be washed twice.
Apply the included Post-Straightening Conditioner . Leave it on for approximately 2 to 3 minutes and then rinse thoroughly.
Finally, blow-dry the hair and style it into the desired look.
