How long until the Brazilian Keratin Treatment COMPLETELY wears off?
I'm not talking about how long the straightness itself lasts, but rather, how long until the keratin itself completely washes out.
I ask because my purpose for getting the BKT is to strengthen my hair over time with each treatment, which requires there to be, at least, SOME keratin leftover from the prior treatment.

It depends on the treatment used - there are some that are only about 30 days and some that last as long as 10-12 weeks.
It also depends on the quality of your water (hard water will strip it faster) and the type of shampoo you use (anything with sulfates and some other chemicals will strip it faster) and the frequency you wash. If you wash every day, obviously it will strip out sooner than if you only wash twice a week.
Other factors include environment - sun, pollution; if you expose it to chlorine (swimming), and if you do any other chemical processes like coloring.
