Thin, Frizzy Hair, Meet Keratin Treatments

Frizzy hair solutions have failed to deliver what they promised me, too many times to count. The only thin frizzy hair smoothing treatment that has ever worked, until now, was the in-salon keratin smoothing treatments.

And honestly, if you can afford and don’t live by the ocean (salt kills keratin smoothers), stop reading. Just get yourself to a salon that offers the Keratin Complex Treatment and do that.

No, it’s not that Brazilian treatment that kills your hair. It’s a Keratin Smoothing Treatment.

Hear me out.

In-Salon Keratin Treatment (Option 1)

  • The in-salon treatment keratin smoothing treatment I’m talking about does NOT take your natural curl away. It’s just a smoothing treatment.
  • Yes, it’s crazy expensive, but maybe worth it if you spends hundreds a year searching for the magic potion that gets rid of frizzy hair. 
  • It binds keratin to your hair so it’s smoother and shinier. And, you don’t have to wait to wash your hair after the treatment has been applied. 

I tried the Express treatment and it was great—while it lasted. It was supposed to last 4-6 weeks if you avoided salt and chloride. 

The Express treatment cost $150 + tip, not including cut, color, or styling. 

It was beautiful while it lasted, but my hair was back to its normal frizzy mess in about three weeks, so I couldn’t justify the cost. Nor was I springing for the full treatment at $250 for 10 weeks, knowing it would wash out sooner than expected.  

But I’m unwilling to shell out $150-350 + tip every four to ten weeks, so I had to find another way. 

So I went online, wondering if there was maybe an at-home treatment that would offer similar results. Like what I did for my rosacea problem. 

AND I FOUND ONE!
