      Frequently Asked Questions

      What is the main difference between Brazilian Blowout and Keratin treatments?

      Brazilian Blowouts leave hair smooth and frizz-free while preserving natural volume and curl bounce with zero downtime (you can wash immediately). Keratin treatments provide straighter, flatter results and require a 72-hour waiting period before washing.

      Does Japanese straightening damage bleached hair?

      Yes. Japanese thermal straightening alters the internal cystine bonds of the hair with ammonium thioglycolate and is strictly contraindicated for bleached, highlighted, or previously relaxed hair due to high risk of breakage.
