Before applying any keratin treatment, proper preparation is essential.
Pre-treatment shampoos are specifically designed to deeply cleanse the hair and remove buildup, allowing the keratin formula to penetrate the hair structure more effectively.
PRO-TECHS clarifying shampoos open the hair cuticle, remove oils, styling residue, and mineral deposits, creating the ideal foundation for professional keratin treatment services.
This preparation step helps stylists achieve:
Better keratin absorption
More even treatment results
Longer-lasting smoothing effects

The success of a keratin treatment starts before the treatment itself.
Without proper preparation, product buildup and natural oils can prevent keratin formulas from bonding effectively with the hair fiber.
Using a professional clarifying shampoo ensures:
Cleaner hair surface
Better product penetration
More predictable results
Longer lasting smoothness
For this reason, pre-treatment preparation is a critical step in professional keratin services.
Most retail deep cleansers are either too harsh or contain conditioning agents that re-seal the cuticle. PRO-TECHS Clarifying Shampoos are specifically designed to leave the cuticle open, which is essential for keratin penetration.
We recommend 2 washes for chemically treated or fine hair, and 3 washes for virgin, coarse, or extremely oily hair to ensure the “squeaky clean” foundation required.
As a deep cleanser, it may slightly lift some surface pigment on freshly colored hair, which is why we recommend performing color services after or during the keratin process as per professional guidelines.
While powerful, our formulas contain soothing agents. However, focus the mechanical scrubbing on the hair lengths rather than aggressively on the scalp.
Yes. Professional clarifying shampoos can be used on most hair types to prepare hair for keratin treatments.
