A Keratin Smoothing Treatment (also called the Brazilian Blowout, keratin straightening or BKT) is a method of temporarily straightening hair and adding a tremendous amount of shine by sealing the hair with a special liquid keratin solution with a flat iron.The Brazilian Keratin Treatment is a long-term blow dry for hair that lasts about three months. There's a new breed of keratin hair treatments on the market, and the in-salon only Goldwell Kerasilk Keratin Smoothing Treatment is designed to help smooth the frizz and cut styling time in half Keratin-infused products, such as shampoo or conditioner that you buy at the store, contain keratin protein and are safe to use daily as they don’t contain the same chemicals, such as formaldehyde, that keratin straightening treatments do. Keratin-infused products have more of a temporary effect on the hair, versus the long-term straightening The reason for this is that the keratin needs at least 72 hours to fully absorb. This is why nothing much will happen if you don’t wash out the keratin immediately when you’re supposed to. Keratin has to bond with the hair; washing it before the recommended time will result in your hair not taking to the treatment. As Maynard tells me, there are many issues involved with the treatment: breathing in harsh chemicals, damage to the hair, and much more. Unlike a Brazilian blowout or keratin straightening The Cezanne keratin treatment smooths and adds shine to frizzy hair. Mèche colorist Tania Whittier, who has embraced the Cezanne treatment as her specialty, says that she first learned about the natural keratin alternative the same way many of her clients do: while seeking out a formaldehyde-free substitute to traditional smoothing treatments. Waiting two or three weeks after getting a Brazilian keratin hair straightening treatment before dying your hair gives your hair time to settle down from the heat treatment used to bind the keratin to your hair’s natural protein. Hair dye and hot irons don’t get along, especially right away. But waiting a couple of weeks then dying your Keratin treatment is unlike the straightening/rebonding process. Your hair will neither be flattened out completely, devoid of any volume, nor will it make your roots grow in curly and your ends Rescue is a great treatment for damaged hair and Smoothe is a great smoothing treatment. The Smoothe though has a stronger straightening element to it so it will flatten curls but it does last longer (3 months I think). Discipline doesn’t last as long, but it also works with your hair texture rather than altering it. GQMIq.
