When you think about Botox for hair, you may think about getting needles in your scalp. But hair Botox isn’t actually an injection! Just like facial Botox can smooth your skin and give you a fresh new look, hair Botox can moisturize your hair, tame frizz, and give you luscious locks. 
## Is Hair Botox an Injectable?
Botox for facial wrinkles is an injectable treatment. Each injection contains a small dose of botulinum toxin that relaxes muscles and smooths wrinkles.

Hair Botox doesn’t contain any botulinum toxin, so it’s not actually Botox at all. Instead, hair Botox is a hair treatment that makes your hair shinier, smoother, and fuller. 
## What is Hair Botox?
Hair Botox is a non-chemical conditioning treatment that can hydrate your hair and reduce frizz. While Botox for wrinkles relaxes muscles, Botox for hair fills individual hair fibers to increase fullness and give your hair a smooth look and feel. 

During treatment, your hair is deeply conditioned with a filler such as intra-cylane, natural oils, or a collagen complex. Along with the filler, hair Botox includes nourishing ingredients like vitamins, proteins, amino acids, and more. This adds fullness to any thin areas on each strand of hair and makes your hair smoother and more radiant.
## Hair Botox vs. Keratin
Another hair treatment that’s getting a lot of buzz is keratin. This straightening treatment is heavy on chemicals and can damage your hair or irritate your scalp. It also takes several days to seal in, so you’ll need to plan your week accordingly. 

Hair Botox, on the other hand, is a deep conditioning treatment that will rehydrate your hair for healthy and smooth hair. Hair Botox is sealed in immediately after treatment, so you can hop in the pool the same day without worrying about your hair. 
## Should You Use Hair Botox?
Hair Botox is ideal for anyone with fine hair that lacks luster. It’s also an effective treatment if you have:
Split ends
Damaged or broken hair
Hair frizz
Fine hair that looks flat
Wavy hair that you’d like to style straight

Deeply conditioning your hair with hair Botox can make your hair healthier and may also slow hair loss.
## What to Expect During Treatment
If you’re not a fan of needles, don’t worry! Hair Botox isn’t injected into your scalp. Instead, the conditioning treatment is applied right onto your hair. Treatment usually starts with shampooing to ensure your hair is clean. Then hair Botox is massaged into each and every strand of your hair, from the scalp right through the ends. This deep conditioner sits on the hair for 30 to 60 minutes before it’s rinsed out. 

As soon as your hair is dry, you’ll see the difference. Your hair will look shinier and smoother than ever before. 
## How Long Does Hair Botox Last?
On average, hair Botox will last from two to four months. Washing your hair less often can make the hair Botox last longer. Using a sulfate-free shampoo can also extend the results for a few more weeks. This anti-aging hair treatment isn’t actually Botox, but it can rejuvenate your hair and give you frizz-free locks.
