Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Full Keratin.

A full keratin service typically takes 90 to 180 minutes depending on hair length, thickness, and any prior color treatments. Your stylist will consult beforehand and provide a precise timeframe based on your hair's condition and desired level of smoothness.

Keratin treatment smooths and relaxes curls, reducing curl pattern by up to 95%, but it is not permanent. Results last several months and gradually fade as new hair grows. Maintenance treatments and proper aftercare prolong smoothness and preserve healthy hair.

Yes — most keratin formulas are safe for color-treated hair and can enhance shine. Your stylist will assess recent coloring and may recommend waiting two weeks after color services to ensure optimal results and minimal chemical interaction.

Avoid washing your hair for 48 to 72 hours after treatment, use sulfate-free products, and minimize harsh heat styling. Regular moisturizing treatments and scheduled touch-ups every three to five months help maintain smoothness and hair health.

When applied by a trained professional with quality products, keratin treatments do not inherently cause hair loss. Over-processing or incompatible chemicals can cause damage, so a thorough consultation and strand test minimize risk and protect hair integrity.
