1: What is hair softening

Hair softening is a hairdressing method. As the name suggests, hair softening makes your hair softer. Mainly for some naturally curly hair and some relatively coarse and hard hair. If you are a girl with naturally curly hair and want to have smooth straight hair, then hair softening will be a very good choice.

2. How long does it take for hair to soften?

As we said above, hair softening is a very convenient and quick hairdressing method. So, how long does it take to soften hair? Let’s take a look at it together below.

Generally speaking, it takes about two hours for hair to soften, and most of the time is spent waiting for the hair to soften. When softening hair, you need to apply the softening solution on the hair, and then wait for a while to allow the hair to become soft under the effect of the solution. The length of softening time is mainly determined by the hair quality. For normal hair, about 20 minutes is enough. But if you have coarse and hard hair, you may need to leave it on for about 30 to 40 minutes.

If girls soften their hair at home, they should pay attention to the degree of softening of their hair. Under normal circumstances, to test whether the hair has been softened enough, you only need to take out three or four strands of hair and stretch them with your fingers. If the hair can be easily stretched 2 to 3 times and can slowly shrink back by itself, it proves that it has been softened enough.

3. Soften the damage to hair

Although hair softening can help girls have smoother hair, hair softening as a hairdressing method will cause certain damage to the hair just like hair dyeing and perming. Therefore, even though girls really want to have smoother hair, they cannot do hair softening frequently. If you want to have smooth, flowing and healthy hair, you still need to persist in hair care.
