Keratin smoothing treatment is formulated to relax curls, reduce frizz, and add shine. You can safely use it for any hair to soften the curls and remove the frizz. Keratin protein and additional amino acid applied during the procedure conceal the outermost layer of the hair strands to eliminate frizz and reduce split ends. The results are straighter, silkier, and more manageable hair for about 60 days.

The treatment does not require any downtime. You can quickly shampoo your hair and immediately go out after the procedure. You can do the treatment at home by following step by step instructions. However, it is always advisable to consult your hair stylist for extra precaution. Here are the steps to do Keratin Treatment at home:
Clarification – The first step is to clean your hair. Use a clarifying shampoo to wash your hair. It will help remove any product build-up on the scalp. Once washed, rinse your hair thoroughly and remember not to apply any conditioner.
Towel-dry – Blot-dry your hair with a towel to remove excess water.
Part the hair – Use large clips to divide your hair into four partitions. Shake and pour the Keratin Treatment product into a bowl.
Apply the product – Use a tint brush and latex gloves to apply the product. Start from the neck and gradually work upwards by pulling down an inch section of hair. Ensure even distribution using a fine tooth tail comb. Make sure that you cover all your hair.
Process – Leave the product for some time to process. Thick hair may require more time to absorb the treatment. Periodically comb your hair to support processing.
Rinse – Thoroughly rinse your hair using warm water.
Blow-Dry – Use a round or paddle brush to blow-dry your hair.
Flat-iron – Iron your hair using a high-quality flat iron having titanium plates to maintain high temperatures. Start by dividing your hair into sections. Secure with clips. Set the temperature of the flat iron between 350-430 F ideally. The temperature may vary according to the condition of your hair. Keep the flat iron moving to avoid burns and breakage.
