Straightening & Smoothing Systems FAQs
Answers to common questions about relaxers, keratin treatments, and smoothing maintenance.
Longevity depends on treatment and hair care. Relaxers can last three to six months with proper touch-ups; keratin treatments typically last eight to twelve weeks. Use sulfate-free shampoos, limit heat, and follow your stylist's aftercare to maintain smooth results longer.
Keratin treatments suit many hair types seeking reduced frizz and more manageability. Ideal for chemically treated or heat-styled hair needing protein reinforcement. Book a consultation so your stylist can assess porosity, damage, and desired outcome to recommend the best smoothing option.
When applied by experienced stylists and with proper formulations, relaxers can safely straighten hair. Overprocessing, incorrect timing, or inadequate conditioning causes damage. We perform consultations, strand tests, and recommend protein or restorative treatments to protect integrity before and after services.
Use sulfate-free, gentle cleansers, and wait the recommended time before shampooing if advised. Minimize heat styling, deep-condition weekly, and use recommended serums to lock in shine. Schedule follow-up trims and touch-ups to keep results looking polished and healthy.
Timing varies with hair length, density, and desired style. Full virgin relaxer and styling appointments typically last two to three hours. Your stylist allocates time for careful application, processing, neutralizing, conditioning, and precision styling to ensure safe, beautiful results.
Yes. Keratin strengthening can complement a precision cut and styling session. We often schedule smoothing treatments before or during styling to create a sleeker finish. Consult your stylist to plan timing and ensure cut integrity and optimal smoothing results.
