Can hair botox cause hair loss?
Hair botox works on the hair strand and does not treat hair loss, and if you are losing hair the first step is to find the cause, which is a medical question.

Will my hair grow back after hair botox?
Hair botox is applied to the hair that has already grown and does not act on the follicle, so hair grows from the scalp as it always did.

What do people report months after hair botox?
The reports are about hair that has gone back to how it was, with some dry ends or frizz returning, and about hair that was already damaged before the treatment.
The way to lower the risk is to book a consultation, be exact about what has been done to your hair and follow the aftercare. Check whether the ends are dry and how the roots are growing in, and ask the specialist if anything looks wrong.
What should I ask before booking hair botox?

- Whether your hair history affects the treatment.
- How thickness changes the price and the session length.
- What to avoid and what to buy afterwards.
What drives the price of hair botox? Hair length and hair thickness set the price: at kruLA hair botox runs from $200 for shoulder length and shorter to $450 for butt length and longer, and thick hair adds $30 to $90.
