Curl retention

English to Spanish translations [PRO]
Marketing - Cosmetics, Beauty
English term or phrase: Curl retention
e.g. Using an acidifying rinse improves curl retention after perming.

"curl retention" is very common in English. There must be an equally common term in Spanish, but I can't find much corroboration online.

Any help would be welcome.

Thank you!

curl retention
fijación de rizos / rizos duraderos


Explanation:
En castellano se habla de "rizos duraderos" o más duraderos.
Encontré unos pocos resultados para fijación de rizos, que sería la traducción fiel.

Asker: Gracias. Decidí "jugar" un poco con mi material y terminé usando "optimiza la elasticidad de los rizos" que me pareció perfecto en el caso de una permanente (rizos elásticos = rizos duraderos). Su respuesta me ayudó bastante.

Asker: Gracias por su ayuda. En este contexto, prefiero reservar "Fijar rizos/Fijador de rizos" para productos que proporcionan fijación, tipo "spray fijador".

curl retention
retención de rizos


Explanation:
From what I've been able to ascertain from Pantene and various other sources.. but it's not definitive. No other term (fijación, for example) seems as common, though.
