Velaterapia is a treatment to remove the split and dry ends of the hair, which consists of burning the ends of the hair, strand by strand, using the flame of a candle.
This treatment can be performed every 3 months, but it should only be done in the salon by an experienced hairdresser or qualified professional, as it is a treatment that uses fire, which can be dangerous when done otherwise.
How Velaterapia is done
Velotherapy is done by the hairdresser as follows:
1st Step: First with dry hair, the hairdresser starts by separating different strands of hair, curled so that the split ends are more visible on the outside. This process is done on all hair.
2nd Step: Then, stretching each strand well, the hairdresser uses a candle to burn the spiky ends, making quick movements with the flame of the candle along the length of each strand;
3rd Step: After the ends have been burnt, the hairdresser checks with her fingers if there are no split ends, and then moves on to the hair embroidery. Embroidery is a technique used later, which consists of cutting the burnt ends, guaranteeing a better result and complete elimination of damaged ends.
4th Step: The professional finishes the whole process by unrolling all the hair and applying creams or doing other treatments to moisturize and give more shine to the hair.
The results of Velaterapia can be seen right at the end of the treatment, however sometimes it may happen that there are some split ends after washing your hair. This treatment can be done in hairdressing or personal salons and its price can vary between 300 and 500 reais.
