The Brazilian Keratin Treatment is neither a traditional relaxer nor a straightener that can only be used on certain types of hair. There is nothing traditional about this new service. It is a universal product that can be used safely on any type of hair- dry, frizzy, overprocesses, color treated, ethnic, or even unprocessed virgin hair. Everyone can get the same results- healthy, shiny, frizz-free, manageable hair!
This process is different from other harsh straighteners and relaxers because it does not involve breaking down the hair and restructuring it. Other treatments have a pH level usually greater than 9 (very high alkalinity), causing the hair to be damaged. The pH range of the Brazilian Keratin Treatment is between 4 and 5, which is exaclty mathing the normal pH of the hair itself! The Brazilian Keratin Treatment is a long lasting and gentle reversible treatment that will eventually wash out over time without harming the hair. When it comes to keratin, its toughness is the key to the structural support it offers hair. Keratin's durability and strength to protect are the secrets that improve the hair both inside and out. The unique Biopolymer ingredient is virtually a liquid form of hair that gently blends with the hair on your head to help restore what has been lost through chemical and environmental stresses.
There are 3 options to choose from when it comes to Brazilian Keratin Treatment-
1. Original Formula:
Clients with Caucasian or Asian types of hair usually obtain the best results from the original formula. If you have dry, frizzy, curly hair this is an excellent idea for you. It removes most if not all of your natural curl, strengthens, and gives shine to your hair. Imagine letting your hair airdry and having no frizz or curl!
2. Chocolate Extreme De-Frizzing Formula:
This treatment features an Essential Amino Acid Blend containing eleven proteins, cupuacu butter, cocoa butter, flax seed oil protein, cinnamon essential oil, and of course Keratin Biopolymer. It is for clients with very coarse ethnic type hair or extremely tight curls. It will produce a more dramatic reslut than the original formula.
3. Advanced Brazilian Keratin Treatment:
This is for clients who swim or exercise every day, or clients who don't like the idea of waiting 3 or 4 days to shampoo their hair after recieveing the service. The difference between this product and the others is clients can shampoo and condition their hair 24 hours after the treatment, and the results will last approximately 6 to 8 weeks as opposed to up to 4 months.
Do's and Don'ts after Brazilian Keratin Treatment:
1. Don't was the hair for three days for the Chocolate and 4 days for the Original after getting the treatment. This allows the treatment to develope fully.
2. Don't tie the hair into a pony tail or braid, use hair clips, hair bands, or bobby pins, since these can affect the straightness of the hair and create unwant dents waves or curls.
3. Don't sweat excessively.
4. If you sweat or get your hair wet accidentally, use a blowdryer immediately and flat iron the areas where needed.
5. Use shampoos and conditioners that are sodium chloride free and sulfate free. There are Shampoos and Conditioners made by Marcia Teixeira that are recommended.
FAQ:
1. Can I perform this treatment after having my hair colored?
Yes this treatment should be used after the hair color. You may not color your hair until 2 to 3 weeks after the treatment.
2.Can I still wear my hair curly with this treatment?
Yes this treatment only removes 60 to 90 percent of your curl. It is more for removing frizz. It will cut your time by more than half for styling. It will flat iron easier and curl prettier.
3.How long will the results last?
Up to 4 months on most hair
4.Can I swim with this treatment?
Only after the 4 day period with the exception of the advanced treatment. The more you swim, the quicker it will fade off as with hair color because of the chlorine or salt buildup.

No. Do not use product of any kind to allow the treatment to fully develop.
