KERATIN TREATMENTS: THE SMOOTHING SECRET YOU NEED TO KNOW
Frizz, puffiness, humidity-induced chaos—we’ve all been there. If you’re tired of battling your hair every morning, keratin treatments might be your new best friend. Whether you want frizz-free curls, a softer wave, or ultra-sleek strands, this smoothing treatment is the key to effortless, manageable hair.
If you're considering getting one, this guide covers everything you need to know—what keratin does, how long it lasts, how to take care of it, and which products will keep your results fresh. Plus, if you’re in Toronto and looking for the best keratin treatment, we’ve got you covered.
WHAT IS A KERATIN TREATMENT?
Keratin treatments blew up in 2010, and for a good reason—they work. Unlike relaxers or perms, which permanently alter your hair’s internal structure, a keratin treatment coats the cuticle with liquid keratin, filling in gaps and smoothing out roughness. Think of it like patching up a wall for a seamless finish.
This means it doesn’t permanently change your natural hair, but it does fade over time. That said, overlapping and excessive treatments can cause lasting effects, so spacing out appointments is key.
WHO IS IT FOR?
✔ People who want frizz-free curls without using tons of product daily.
✔ Anyone looking to loosen their natural curl pattern.
✔ Those who want straighter, sleek hair with minimal effort.
✔ Anyone looking to cut down blowdry time in half with ease and lasting results.
HOW LONG DOES A KERATIN TREATMENT LAST?
On average, you’re looking at up to three months of smoother, more manageable hair. The treatment gradually fades out, meaning your natural texture will slowly come back over time.
Touch-ups? If your mid-lengths and ends still feel smooth, you can just treat the roots and lightly refresh the ends. But you need to wait at least six weeks before doing another full treatment.
KERATIN TREATMENT BENEFITS: WHAT TO EXPECT
✔ Smooth, frizz-free hair for up to three months.
✔ Softer curls or straighter results (depending on how you process it).
✔ Cut your blow-dry time in half—if it took an hour before, expect 20 minutes.
✔ No more humidity headaches—your hair stays sleek, even in Toronto’s muggy summers.
✔ Less heat damage—you won’t need high temps to get smooth results.
KERATIN TREATMENT AFTERCARE: KEEP IT LOOKING FRESH
To get the most out of your keratin treatment, you need the right products. Sulfates are the enemy—they strip the treatment faster, leaving your hair dry and rough.
