Treatment – Salon Quality, No Flat Iron Needed (4 oz)

Works really great for a while–pricey but worth it
I ordered this version so I wouldn’t have to use a flat iron. I read every piece of paper that came with the tube and followed the instructions exactly. I read a lot about this smelling on your hair if you don’t follow the rinse instructions carefully, so I timed how long I rinsed exactly, between one and two minutes. Also, even though I used my blow dryer to dry my hair, and then waited another hour to be certain it was completely dry, I decided to use my flat iron after it was dry because I knew the results would be better.This stuff is amazing at first. It was easy to blow it out smooth. I let it air dry and scrunched it with my hands, and my curls were nice and defined with no frizz. I got compliments on my hair that day. It definitely looks better, whether I wear it straight or let it air dry.I have been washing it every day since I applied it; I walk every morning and I’m too sweaty when I get in not to wash it. I decided to see how long it would work. I would say it started wearing off after three weeks, and I am using Babyliss Keratin shampoo and conditioner I ordered from Amazon. Even though my very wavy/curly and frizzy hair is coming back, this stuff is still working when I use my blow dryer. It doesn’t take nearly as long to dry, and it takes only a few passes for it to straighten. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. I have hair almost to my shoulders; I used only half a tube for my first application, so if it lasts me a month or more it will be worth the price. It definitely makes a big difference in how frizzy it is.

LOTS of instructions
I have long naturally curly hair and thought, hey, I can try this! It comes with a ton of instructions that are easy to read and follow, but I feel to be very daunting. I think the product description could be better to note that this is like coloring your hair at home. It requires clothing and towels that you don’t care if they get damaged or stained, it matters if you have color-treated hair as it could impact the color – so they recommend using this before you touch up your color – for that reason, I gave it a few stars and won’t try it yet, b/c I have to work it into the schedule for my highlights with my colorist.The brush is amazing. I use it every time I style my hair. Great for bangs or big waves, which is weird since it comes with a straightening product.If you’ve had success with this product, I want to know your secrets. It’s super intimidating and didn’t have enough upfront information.

Not compatible with color
As the packaging warned, the product stripped out a lot of my color.They suggested coloring after. But when I did that, the color stripped out the keratin treatment.I can’t use both, even a few days apart, so I’m disappointed.

Just okay.
I have longer, wavy, some frizz hair. Used the express as directed and flat ironed over it to ensure maximum frizz free. Applied and went on vacation for 3 weeks to a slightly humid environment. I would say for the price and quality I would not use again. The products doesn’t remove as much frizz as some of the other keratin treatments I’ve used for 1/2 the price. Also if you are looking for it to straighten hair it doesn’t at all. It will still wave up and be a little frizzy. I usually use a keratin once a year and it helps with my frizz and keeping my hair pretty straight (not waving back up) in humidity, this one did neither, just 30% less frizz. I’ll be ordering another product to apply before summer.
