Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Keratin Treatment.

No. Keratin treatments primarily smooth and reduce frizz without permanently changing your curl structure. Most clients retain natural texture with reduced frizz and easier styling for weeks to months depending on maintenance and hair type.

Results generally last four to twelve weeks, sometimes longer with careful care. Longevity depends on hair porosity, washing frequency, product choice, and exposure to chlorine or saltwater. Sulfate-free products help extend results.

Yes, many color-treated or chemically processed clients can safely receive keratin treatments. We perform a consultation and strand test to assess integrity and adjust formulas to protect color and avoid over-processing.

Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner, avoid excessive heat, and limit washing to preserve the keratin. Sleep on silk or satin and follow salon aftercare instructions. Regular trims help maintain healthy ends.

Most clients are good candidates, but severely damaged hair, active scalp conditions, or pregnancy may require caution. We’ll assess your hair during consultation and may recommend alternatives if keratin isn’t appropriate.

Appointments typically range from 90 minutes to three hours depending on hair length, thickness, and the formula used. Time includes consultation, application, processing, and blow-dry/flat-ironing for optimal results.
