Ballston Keratin Hair Straightening

Brazilian Keratin hair straightening is among the most misunderstood of all hair treatments. Here are the facts:

  • Ballston Keratin Hair StraighteningHuman hair is made of keratin, a hair protein, which means that there is absolutely nothing dangerous when it comes to marinating your hair in it. At our Urban Halo Salon near Ballston, each of our hair stylists who use Keratin received comprehensive training in the process to make certain that the results were not only safe, but would meet our clients’ expectations.
  • The Process: The hair stylist sections and combs the formula into your hair until the hair follicles are saturated, and uses a blow-dryer to dry and then a flat iron to seal the treatment in small sections. Depending on the length and texture of your hair, the process could take between 2-4 hours.
  • An application of the Keratin formula has the effect of smoothing the surface of your hair follicles.  As a result, it reduces curls and waves. Keratin helps make your hair shinier and reduces breakage too.
  • In contrast to other kinds of straightening techniques, using a Keratin hair straightening treatment on your bleached or dyed hair may actually make your hair appear and feel healthier.
  • Keratin isn’t permanent; it washes out gradually in close to eight weeks, although it could last up to five-six months if the right aftercare is implemented. Our hair stylists will go over this with you to tailor the process to your expectations.
  • A weaker formulation of Keratin smoothing called “Keratin Express” may result in “taking the frizz out” without having to remove your curls.
  • If you want the final result to last, you are going to need to restrict how many times per week you shampoo (three times max.), and you ought to start using a Keratin-safe shampoo. Our hair stylists will point out the most beneficial shampoos for your particular hair.
