KERAGEN - Brazilian Smoothing Keratin Hair Treatment, Blowout Straightening System for Dry and Damaged Hair - Forte, Sulfate Free - Eliminates Curls and Frizz, Medium to Coarse Hair (16 Oz)

The media could not be loaded. I have 3c/4a hair (both patterns) - my last keratin treatment prior to this was over a year ago. This treatment was comparable to GKs old resistant formula! The video is from the following morning after my treatment with no products and no heat - I’ll update after my first wash.1. Wash hair TWICE with clarifying shampoo to open the hair cuticles. I detangle with a wet brush during the shampoo, brushing from the ends to root.2. Wrung out my hair. My hair dries fast so I didn’t towel dry. If your hair holds onto water then I’d pat down with a microfiber towel (making sure hair is still damp)3. I applied the Keragen smoothing treatment with hands and then combed it thru with a detangling brush. I went over it with a fine tooth comb to ensure the treatment saturated all strands.4. Left the treatment on for a total of 45mins (less time for less kinky hair, can leave on up to 60mins for kinkier hair). I purchased a steamer cap that attaches to a standard blow dryer and steamed for the first 15mins of the 45mins.5. Used fine tooth comb to remove the excess!!!6. DO NOT RINSE. Blow dried with a round brush dryer7. Straightened hair at 410 degrees (lower temp for less kinky hair - temp suggestions on bottle). Made sure to pass the straightener 5-7 times over section of hair.8. Did not add any additional products. Wrapped hair with a mesh cap and silk bonnet.Pros: hair is silky and after straightening, my hair didn’t have product/residue feel that other keratin treatments giveCons: there will be some fumes but I noticed they weren’t as bad as compared to other keratin treatments I’ve had in the past. I think what helped is that I applied the treatment using hands which cut the application time in half AND removing all the excess before blow drying minimized fumes/cut drying time significantly as well.

First, this WORKS. I have very thick Curly/Wavy hair that will frizz the second there’s humidity in the air. I’ve been blowing out my hair since I was 13 (I’m 40)… I’ve mastered the blow out but there’s no cream, spray or serum that will stop my hair from frizzing + curling in the humid NE summers.I first ordered this last year and just ordered another bottle. My hair is just below my shoulders (very thick) and I got 4 uses out of it. I’ve paid $250-500 each for professional Relaxers, Japanese Straightening, Brazilian Blowouts and Keratin Treatments for over 20 years. This works just as well as the last Keratin Treatment I had done in a salon for less than $10 per treatment. I personally can’t stand sitting in a salon chair for hours and for $400+ difference, I’m more than happy to do it myself.It’s ready to use out of the bottle. You need gloves, an applicator brush, comb, blow dryer and straightener. There is a strong chemical smell blow drying/straightening when the products basically burning off but I’ve never had a negative reaction and my hair is undoubtedly in better condition after. I’ve left it in for 24hrs and 48hrs and had the same outcome so I do think you can actually wash it as soon as you like.This relaxes and smooths my hair; it still has wave to it but ZERO frizz. Like hair color, how long it lasts depends on how fast your hair grows, how often you wash it and what you wash it with. My hair grows fast, I wash it every other day only using Sulfate Free Shampoo half the time and it lasts a good 8-10 weeks. For the price, convenience of doing it myself and the end result… softer, more manageable, frizz free hair, this is an easy 5 stars. Highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow I’m actually really surprised how well this worked. I had a perm and was over it so I wanted to tame the curls and this DID THE JOB. Didn’t even damage my hair which was what I was most surprised about. Granted, I do take pretty good care of my hair so take that how you will

I am very familiar with keratin treatments I go to a hair salon twice a year and it’s expensive!!! Price went up again!!! So I decided to give this product a try. I followed the directions and of course I knew exactly how to do it. The product smell terrible my eyes got so red my nose and throat burn bad so I had to take breaks and go outside to breath!!! I waited 30 minutes since my hair is not thin but also not very thick. I dried it and straight it and it looks bad it was sticky and nasty but I gave it a try and decided to wait a day and then wash it and I’m happy I did because when I wet it usually my hair feels dry until I put conditioner but this time it felt so soft I was so impressed it’s shiny and soft and I think for this price it worth doing it then going to a salon. But next time I will do it outdoor. I also did my daughter hair it’s thick and very frizzy and same thing with her hair happened it was super sticky but got amazing after first wash.I know people say wait 72 hours before you wash it but there are two kind of keratin some have to wait this time and some don’t I feel that this one is ok to wash after a day.
