Here’s what you need to know about Keratin Smoothing Treatments - NOW Available at Emm Ryan!

A keratin treatment is a process that smooths and often straightens hair. You might also hear it called a Brazilian keratin treatment or a Brazilian blowout. It involves applying products to the hair, blow-drying it, and sealing it with a flat iron

  • Is a keratin treatment good for your hair?

Keratin—the protein that helps strengthen hair to prevent breakage, heat damage, and frizz—is vitally important for maintaining strong and healthy hair

  • How long does keratin treatment last for?

Between 2-6 months

Keratin treatments can last anywhere between 2-6 months, depending on the brand of Keratin you choose, the way it is applied and your lifestyle.

What is the process of keratin treatment?

It takes a long time - As in three to four hours long (but worth every darn minute spent in that salon chair). The process goes something like this: shampoo (no conditioner); rough-dry hair until its 80 percent dry; apply the treatment working in small sections; let process for 15 minutes; blow-dry product into hair; flatiron hair in tiny quarter-inch sections (this takes the longest!); rinse hair for five to ten minutes to ensure product is completely out of hair; shampoo (again); apply keratin sealing serum; blow-dry… and done! smooth, sleek hair just for you!

  • Can I comb my hair after keratin treatment?

Yes, you can. But remember: Wait 72 hours after your treatment!


  • How much does it cost?

We have an introductory special for $467 for A Full Keratin Smoothing Treatment.

Let’s de-bunk some Keratin Myths …

The KERATIN MYTHS

There is a lot a misinformation around mainly due to poor products, poor training and lack of attention during the service. 😏

Here's a few

1. It lasts 2-3 months ? Not true unless you use non recommended products, Swim a lot or wash your hair every day. Great care means up to 5 months.

2. It did only last 2-3 months ? Well if not the above it is either an inferior product (we've seen a few) Or poor execution by operator.

3. You can use whatever you like on your hair afterwards ? Sure you can. But if it does not last as long you will know why and we cannot be held responsible to what happens at home

4. It Just needs to be sulphate free products afterwards ? As much as sulphate based products are harsher. No that is not the reason. The reason certain products have adverse outcomes can come from a host of ingredients in them

5.Just using a "keratin" shampoo will be ok ? Probably not, Remember just because you have had a keratin service they are not the same. Some only last a couple of months. Why use that product ?

6. It should only take two hours or less to do ? Good luck with that. Try 2.5 - 3.5 hours if done correctly

7. I cannot wash or tie my hair up for several days following the treatment? Not true. There is no restriction. Although we recommend 10 days after for colour. If you hear this its not real keratin

8. It’s damaging and drying on my hair ? Ha ha ha. This is what we hear from salons that do not offer this service. Simply not true. It does not have the ability to damage your hair.

9. "I can get done for under $200" ??! - Look, you CAN probably find a salon for this price…. you can get someone to put a product on your hair with keratin in it… but you pay for what you get… just sayin’ 😌 and this is the type of service where expertise and experience matter.


 
 




A keratin treatment is done by a certified stylist in a hair salon. A keratin treatment first involves a consultation with a specialist where hair is assessed and a patch test is performed.

When a Keratin Complex® hair treatment is applied, hair is repaired through our Signature Keratin and a unique blend of ingredients that reinforce weak spots in the hair’s structure to make the hair healthier, stronger and smoother

The keratin treatment is then sealed into the cuticle through the heating process (blow-dry and flat iron) to repair damage and block the humidity that causes frizz. Results are cumulative: the more our keratin treatments are applied, the healthier hair becomes.

Everything You Need to Know About Keratin Hair Treatments
Keratin is a type of protein that is naturally found in hair, skin and nails. Hair us up to 95% keratin, but the depletion of keratin causes hair damage. Over time, keratin is depleted from the hair due to a variety of factors, from environmental factors like sun exposure, to daily stressors like heat styling.

At Keratin Complex®, we developed a solution to those daily hair stressors and environmental factors. We created Signature Keratin, a proprietary keratin that gives hair strength, elasticity and a youthful, healthy look; this signature keratin is an essential ingredient in our keratin hair treatments.
