As a Special...Great article on keratin treatments! As a Specialist on the topic, I would like to address some of the points here with a few important details:<br /><br />1) Some of these products actually come with up to 4% formaldehyde in them; not .04% as the article says. It's an easy mistake to make, because .04 IS 4%, but .04% is 4/100ths of a percent. Gramatically, it's like saying 4pm in the afternoon; redundant. But realistically, that is 100x the difference! Be careful. There are many formaldehyde-free keratin treatments out there which are highly effective without the potential risks associated with formaldehyde exposure. I work with three such products, as I am not comfortable exposing my clients, myself or the staff around me to such strong chemicals.<br /><br />2) The article says "Keratin Complex is not a chemical." This is untrue. Keratin Complex by Coppola, and all keratin treatments do have chemicals in them. What do you think makes them last for 3 months? The accurate statement here is that they don't CHEMICALLY CHANGE the hair, because the keratin and smoothing agents are bonded onto the outside of the hair and slowly fade away.<br /><br />3) Does that 3 day waiting period sound like a pain? It is. Most keratin treatments make the client leave with flat-ironed hair, not knowing their results, and with a list of rules about not wearing ponytails, clips, sweating on their hair during those 3 days, etc. Only Brazilian Blowout™ has no down time!!! You see your results THAT DAY, and don't have to wait to wash, work out, or wear a pony. This convenience factor is major for some women, myself included!
