Brazilian Keratin Treatment Pros and Cons
Brazillian Keratin Treatments or Brazillian Blowouts have been around for some time now. People looking for strong, straight, shiny hair will usually hear about this keratin treatment that will give them just that effect.
Keratin is a type of protein present in our hair and its job is to help keep it smooth and shiny. When keratin levels are down, our hair becomes frizzy and dry. A Brazillian Keratin Treatment helps with bringing the hair back to life again. Before you take the plunge, here are some pros and cons of Brazillian Keratin Treatment:
Pros
Shiny and Frizz-free Hair
Keratin smooths cells in your hair to form hair strands that become glossy and healthy.
Easier To Style Hair
Because your hair is smoother, it becomes more manageable to style especially if you have thick and frizzy hair. Many people find that keratin treatments cut the drying time of the hair as well.
Hair Growth
Keratin treatments can make your hair stronger and allow it to grow longer as the strands are less prone to breakage.
Cons
Short Life-Span
Keratin Treatment can last only a few weeks, but when taken care of the right way can last up to 6 months.
Loss of Hair Volume
If your hair already does not have a lot of volume it will flatten it further.
Cost
Brazillian Keratin Treatment typically costs $200 and up. The rates may also differ depending on the length, texture, and thickness of your hair, and will also vary from salon to salon.
