The Brazilian Keratin Treatment is the latest trend sweeping the nation and is now available at a salon near you.
The Brazilian Keratin Treatment helps to improve the quality and durability of your hair, which is pretty much unheard of as most hair straightening treatments can often be damaging to your hair or won’t have any affect on the condition of it, where as the Brazilian Keratin Treatment will improve your hair every time that you have it done. As it is a temporary solution to your situation the effect that the Brazilian Keratin Treatment has on you’re hair will start to fade when you’re two/three months are coming to an end; however you will notice a difference in the condition of your hair at the end of these months and your hair will continue to improve every time that you have the treatment done.
Before you start having any treatment done involving the Brazilian Keratin Treatment you should have a consultancy with your stylist in order to learn all about the process that is involved in the Brazilian Keratin Treatment.
The main element of the Brazilian Keratin Treatment is something known as Keratin, which penetrates into the cortex of the hair as a way of adding strength, moisture and elasticity to the hair. The cost of the Brazilian Keratin Treatment depends on the length and thickness of your hair.
The Brazilian Keratin Treatment is replenishing and helps to recondition and protect your hair from damages that occur through heat and water. The treatment will bring back natural shine to the hair. It penetrates the hair repairing internal damage and coats the hair preventing further damage.
When you re-visit the salon to have the Brazilian Keratin Treatment done you will have the treatment done on the whole of your hair and you are safe to have the treatment done before three months if you want too. If you are hoping to get your hair cut around the time of your treatment then it is recommended that you have it cut after you have had the treatment done. This way you are trimming the dead ends leaving your hair perfectly straight.
Once you have had the treatment done there are certain things that need to be done such as you can’t use any hair-spray, gel, mousse or any other hair products on your hair for four days after the treatment has been applied. The four days following your treatment are essential and you have to be extremely careful with how you treat your hair otherwise the treatment may have been for nothing. Due to this it is a good idea to not have any events planned during the four days after your treatment.
The Brazilian Keratin Treatment is the perfect solution for hair that is unruly or curly; however if you are planning on getting it done make sure that you go to an experienced salon and always talk to a stylist before having any work undertaken.

One of the treatments that these stylists will advice you is Brazilian keratin treatment.

The most important thing that you need to know about it is that is not a permanent treatment but then the more times you get it done it will be better for your hair as well as its look. With this treatment you can actually repair the damages that your hair has gone through. The best thing about this treatment is that it is very different from the other treatments as they involve chemicals whereas this treatment utilizes a natural substance called as keratin.

The brazilian keratin treatment has many benefits and so it is gaining so much of preference. One of the benefits of this treatment is that it can treat any type of hair which works best for chemically as well as damaged hair. This treatment will make your hair smoother, softer and shiner. This treatment also acts as a moisturizer which will protect your hair from humidity and heat which makes your hair frizz free. This will avoid your hair to look lifeless.

Wildly popular in all the blogs and a hot topic in those social networking forums I love to hangout in, everyone seems to be thinking about getting a Brazilian Keratin Treatment (BKT). Wait! I type. Before you call your stylist to book your salon appointment, make sure you have all the info you need to make your choice. Silky hair is good, but with a Brazilian Keratin Treatment you might be getting more than you planned.

What you and your stylist may not know is that the active ingredient in these BKT “wonder” treatments is formaldehyde, which is a dangerous chemical, especially if you breathe it in. Hence the protective equipment – face masks, gloves, ventilation fans – as a safety precaution when giving or getting a treatment. Is straight hair worth wearing a gas mask? Now THAT’S something to consider.

According to Allure Magazine (we love them!) “some of the most popular BKT treatments contain at least ten times more formaldehyde than the .2 percent considered safe by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel. The FDA doesn’t currently regulate cosmetics, but they are investigating the safety of escova progressiva treatments.” Now, I’m no expert, and I have considered a BKT when I originally heard about them, but ten times more formaldehyde really sounds like a bad idea. Very bad. There’s no way that’s good for you.

The best, or I should say worst part about the Allure Magazine expose? I’ll loosely paraphrase here, but the gist is: “Keratin has nothing to do with straightening. Nada. There is nothing in Keratin that will change the structure of the hair, it’s the formaldehyde that makes the treatment work. Keratin is window dressing and provides a good marketing story.” Sounds like a sham to me. And really, who wants that kind of toxic treatment?

I’ll opt for my own straightening treatment – a super smoothing shampoo and conditioner combo, followed by a silky straightening lotion, a great flat iron and a strong thermal protectant. And maybe a trip to Brazil!
