Brazilian Simply Straight Keratin Treatment

Well, I finally went in for that hot Brazilian Keratin hair treatment. It's quite an involved process. It began with my hair being shampooed 3 times with a special shampoo. Then, Nicki saturated my hair with the treatment and left it in for 20 minutes. She then smoothed it with a flatiron, using the smallest sections imaginable. With the amount of hair I have, the entire process took just oer 4 hours. After you leave the salon, you are not to wet your hair or use any hair accessories to put it up for 4 days. This is a lot harder than it sounds! I forgot and put it up for a few minutes on Saturday afternoon before my sister spotted it and reminded me. When I returned this morning, my hair was shampooed again and I applied my usual styling products, leaving it curly. Even though this treatment is called Simply Straight, it doesn't straighten your hair. It is supposed to eliminate frizz, remove bulk and generally improve your hair texture. And, after 4 hours and $400 (almost $500 if you count the tip), I certainly hope it works. I am going to give it a week, and wash it and work with it myself, to see, and then I'll let you know. My initial impression is that my hair does feel super soft and silky, and much healthier. More later!
