Your stylist will evaluate your hair texture, condition, lifestyle, and goals to recommend the ideal keratin formula for your desired results.
Your hair is gently cleansed with a clarifying shampoo to remove buildup and ensure maximum absorption of the treatment.
The chosen keratin formula is carefully applied section by section, ensuring even saturation and targeting frizz-prone or textured areas.
We use professional heat styling tools to lock the keratin into the hair shaft, sealing in smoothness, shine, and long-lasting manageability.
After the treatment is complete, your stylist perfects your final look with a blowout or flat iron finish.
Before you leave, we’ll provide personalized aftercare instructions and product recommendations to protect your results and extend longevity.
Keratin smoothing treatments are professional hair services that infuse the hair with strengthening proteins, sealing the cuticle to smooth frizz, add shine, and reduce drying and styling time.
Unlike chemical relaxers, keratin treatments do not break the hair’s natural bonds—instead, they nourish and smooth the surface, making them a safer, customizable option for all hair types.
Keratin smoothing treatments are designed to reduce frizz, enhance shine, and improve manageability while maintaining your hair’s natural texture and movement. They do not create pin-straight results like chemical relaxers. Smoothing treatments soften and smooth the hair rather than permanently altering its structure, making them a gentler, more flexible option for all hair types.
YES! Your color service will be completed prior to your smoothing treatment application.
