Your Fabriq Keratin Smoothing Aftercare Advice
Fabriq Reset
To prolong the frizz-free, smooth finish of your Fabriq Reset treatment, follow these steps:
Important Tips
Avoid getting your hair wet or washing it for the first 72 hours to allow the treatment to set properly.
Use sulphate-free products, we recommend using Fabriq products to prolong the life of the treatment.
Keep your hair straight and dry – avoid tying it up, tucking it behind your ears, or using clips to prevent dents.
First Wash After Fabriq Reset – Step-by-Step
Wait 72 Hours – Allow the treatment to fully set before washing your hair.
Rinse for 5 Minutes – Start by rinsing your hair for 5 minutes with lukewarm water to remove the excess treatment. This step is crucial to ensure that the treatment bonds properly to your hair.
Shampoo – Use a sulphate-free shampoo we recommend Fabriq to wash your hair. Gently massage the shampoo into your hair and rinse thoroughly.
Condition – Apply a sulphate-free conditioner we recommend Fabriq to keep your hair moisturised and smooth.
Dry and Style – Pat your hair dry with a towel (don’t rub), then blow-dry and style as usual. The heat will activate the smoothing effects and help seal in the treatment.
Ongoing Maintenance
Use Fabriq Sulphate-Free Shampoo & Conditioner – Sulphates can strip keratin from your hair, reducing the longevity of your treatment.
Wash your hair less frequently – Over-washing can break down the smoothing effects faster.
Avoid excessive heat styling – Your hair is already smoother and easier to manage, so minimize heat to keep it healthier for longer.
Apply a heat protectant before blow-drying or straightening to maintain shine and protect against damage.
Book a top-up appointment every 3-4 months to keep your hair looking flawless.
Fabriq Quick Fix
Since Fabriq Quick Fix is a more temporary treatment, proper aftercare helps extend its results for as long as possible.
The First 24 Hours
Avoid washing your hair for at least 24 hours to let the treatment fully absorb.
Keep hair down and straight – avoid tying it up too tightly or using clips.
Ongoing Maintenance
Use Fabriq Sulphate-Free Shampoo & Conditioner – Sulphates can strip keratin from your hair, reducing the longevity of your treatment.
Limit heat styling – While Quick Fix strengthens hair, using excessive heat can reduce its benefits.
Hydrate & protect – Use a leave-in treatment or serum to lock in moisture and shine.
Book your next treatment – For continuous smoothness, we recommend a Quick Fix top-up every 4 weeks or transitioning to Fabriq Reset for longer-lasting results.
Maximise Your Results with the Right Aftercare
Both Fabriq Reset and Quick Fix deliver incredible smoothness and strength, but your at-home routine plays a huge role in keeping your hair looking its best. Our team at Novum - Hair & Beauty will recommend the best products for your hair type and lifestyle to help you maintain salon-quality results.
