A keratin smoothing treatment coats the hair and is sealed in with heat, so humidity stops lifting the cuticle. Curl relaxes rather than disappears, blow-drying gets much faster, and the effect fades out gradually instead of leaving a line.
If you are not after months of smoothing, the treatment menu also carries protein and organic smoothing and a deep conditioning, which repair and soften in a single visit without changing how your hair behaves long-term.

What does a keratin treatment actually do?
A keratin smoothing treatment coats the hair shaft and is sealed in with heat, so humidity can no longer lift the cuticle and cause frizz. Curl relaxes rather than disappears, and blow-drying gets much faster.
It is not a chemical straightener, and it does not grow out with a hard line: the effect fades gradually over the months after your appointment.

How much does a keratin treatment cost?
Keratin smoothing starts at from $285. It is a starting price because thick or long hair takes more product and more time; you will get a firm quote before we start.
How long does keratin smoothing last?
Most people get a few months out of it, depending on how often you wash your hair and what you wash it with. It fades gradually rather than growing out with a line.
How long does the appointment take?
Plan on two to three hours, longer for thick or very long hair. It is worth booking ahead rather than walking in for this one.
What is the difference between keratin and a protein treatment?
Keratin smoothing changes how your hair behaves for months: less frizz, faster drying. A protein or organic treatment is a single visit of repair and softness, with no lasting change to your curl.
