Keratin Smoothing in Costa Mesa: What It Does and Doesn't Do

If your hair frizzes the second you walk outside, or a blowout takes you forty minutes, keratin smoothing is probably what you're after.

What it does

• Cuts frizz way down
• Makes blowouts noticeably faster
• Adds softness and shine
• Makes curly and wavy hair easier to manage

What it doesn't do

It won't make your hair pin straight. It smooths and relaxes texture. If you want your curls completely gone, that's a different conversation, and we'll have it honestly.

How the appointment goes

• Consult. We ask about recent color, bleach or chemical services. Heavily lightened hair may need a gentler plan.
• Deep cleanse. Clean hair takes the treatment evenly.
• Apply and process. Product goes on section by section.
• Blow dry and seal. Heat locks it in.
• Aftercare. Your stylist tells you when you can wash and what to use.

How long it lasts

It fades gradually over a few months. Most clients come back when the frizz starts showing at the roots again. Sulfate free shampoo stretches it.

What it costs

Keratin smoothing starts at $300. Longer or thicker hair takes more product and time, so the final price depends on your hair. We'll quote you before we start.
