KERATIN RESEARCH4x 120ml Complex LONG Lasting Brazilian Keratin Hair Treatment Blowout , Argan Oil Straightening Smoothing Professional Results Keratina

Complex Brazilian Keratin Hair Blowout Treatment really worked for me. I purchased it several months ago and I was very skeptical to try it. I thought it would not work or that it would be difficult to do the treatment myself. I have fine, wavy hair and because I'm aging (I'm 54), there is less hair on top of my scalp now. I don't get pretty curls or waves when my hair dries naturally. I get thin frizzy waves. Going to the beach, or being in humid weather is awful. It curls up in weird ways. So, I decided to try this since I tend to do the Brazilian Blow Outs pretty regularly. I wanted to see if I could save some cash with something that worked for others. I'm really glad I tried it as it did soften and relax my hair to the point where it did not curl up weird. This product will not leave your hair stick straight though. It also contains formaldehyde which some people are concerned about. The amounts are not high enough to deregulate though. Here's what I did: I washed my hair twice with the clarifying shampoo and followed the instructions. I wore a disposable face mask and gloves. I used a brush and worked the product through my hair, one small piece at a time from root through ends (do not apply to the point where it is dripping as it will coat the hair heavily and you'll end up with oily looking hair). I followed as instructed and left it on the required length of time. IMPORTANT: Because this product contains formaldehyde and other chemicals (any liquid that straightens hair is a chemical) you will need to heat your hair in an area that is well ventilated. I used a fan to blow the fumes out of my slider window. Do this when you begin to blow-dry the hair and flat iron it. The fumes are strong and burn your eyes. Also, you will need a second mirror to see the back of your heat to ensure you are taking the bend out of the hair there (cow licks) appropriately and uniformly around that part of your head. This is very important because you do not want some of your hair flat and other parts wavy when this dries. Flat iron in the direction that you normally style and give yourself a little gentle curve where you think you normally like so it's not sticking straight at the ends. I did not flat iron the top of my hair as many times as I did the back because I have less hair there and I did want to leave some body on the top. Leave the product in once you're done. I left it in about two hours before washing because I was going out that night. I think next time I use this I will leave it on a lot longer. They recommend at least three hours or even overnight. Nice results. Not stick straight but not wavy. It's been about a month since I used it and my hair is still manageable, noticeably flatter, but there is a bit of body too. It dries much quicker too and even though I still have to flat iron a bit, it's not at the higher temperature setting. I find that 360 degrees does the trick where before it was at 400 degrees. Not good to do that high ever. I would say this product worked very well for me. It's not as strong as the Brazilian Blowout but I also don't feel that it was not effective. It was effective, and it only cost a fraction of what the Brazilian Blowout costs me. I would buy this again.

I have had very frizzy/curly blonde hair since I was young. I now have short hair, slightly over an inch long on the top. I like to blow dry my hair to style it into shape. I have been using this treatment for 2+ years now, about every 4-6 weeks. Without this keratin treatment I can't really shape my hair at all. Blowdryers don't create shape that holds and flatirons make my hair awkwardly bone straight.Pros of this product:- Result is great for 3-4 weeks and makes my hair so much faster and easier to style with a round brush. This saves me so much time fighting with my hairspray and comb to get the front of my hair to look nice.- Very quick to apply on men's short hair (takes me like 5-7 mins to comb through).- Can wash out next day, don't need to wait 3 days like common salon products. I usually try to wash out after 12 hours, but have waited as little as 8 hours before too.Cons:- Once your roots grow out with short hair, it becomes much harder to style. So I do have to re-do this process about once monthly. That's not the product's fault, but worth calling out for men with short hair considering this. I think the net time savings though every morning is worth the 45-60 mins this takes me monthly.- To get the best results, you'll want to buy a skinny straightener specifically designed for men with short hair. That enables you to get down to the root of your hair when you straighten it during the treatment. There are plenty of affordable options on Amazon.- The smell is chemically, but honestly not that bad.- The fumes do irritate my eyes. But it's not unbearable. Having a fan is a game changer. Merely cracking the window doesn't really reduce the irritation.Overall I very much recommend this product to men with curly hair who want the ability to shape their hair more. Love the way my hair looks, especially the first couple weeks after I do the treatment.
