Brazilian Keratin Hair Treatment

This gives you perfect hair., May 13, 2010

This can take the frizziest most damaged, dull hair and make it healthier than I can possibly describe. 24 years of hairdressing and I’ve finally found the miracle product. Bye the way , you can make 3-4 grand off 1 bottle doing as salon service.

Good but fumes are scary.., November 30, 2010

This product made my hair feel soft from just applying it on my hair for 20 minutes.. You are supposed to keep that product on for that time and then flat iron your hair while products is still on to set it. I’m sure it would make my hair lovely if I could stand the fumes… Bare in mind I did everything myself. Not in salon. I had all the windows open yet was crying!! when APPLYING it let alone flat ironing it. I’m normally quite taugh but this scared me! But hair felt great! I’ll still be having a go at trying to flat iron it:))

I like it, May 16, 2010

I didn’t use the treatment for blond & highlighted hair but the regular one and didn’t buy it from this seller. I really like the results, it changed my life. Didn’t loose hair at all and my hair is much silkier. I have thin blond curly hair, for me it was the perfect solution and I do it myself.

The BEST treatment ever!, October 30, 2010

By

Beth H. Porter “you create your own reality” (Orange, California United States) – See all my reviews

Once you use this product on your hair, you will never want to go without it again! I have had it done professionally 3 times now. My stylist uses the Coppola product and all I can say is WOW! My hair has not looked this good since I was 10 years old! I have very light blonde hair and noticed my hair turned an orange tint after the treatment…all three times. If you have very light blonde hair as I do then I would recommend using the “Blonde” Keratin treatment. I am going to buy the blonde treatment here off of amazon and do the process myself, and I am confident I will get the same fabulous results. This product is amazing! But all you “blondies” out there, I would recommend using the blonde treatment. I don’t know what these people are talking about who say their hair falls out after this treatment. That is crazy! My hair has never been in better condition since using this product. I think their stylist may have had something to do with those unfortunate results because I have known numerous people who have had this treatment done, and all (without exception) have LOVED it!! Hope this helps!

I like it!, September 27, 2010

I used this product on my hair and the results were fantastic! No hair loss at all. It only made my hair stronger. Perhaps some people are allergic to it who find it unacceptable. I will purchase it again, no doubt about it.

VERY important to use a 450 deg high-quality flat-iron, May 10, 2009

I have thick, coarse, kinky-curly red hair. I had been using chemical ethnic relaxers and it was really damaging my hair, so I tried a salon keratin treatment. It worked great, but I was out 0… then I found this product. I think what helped is that I tweaked the given directions a bit to follow the stricter directions for the expensive salon treatment (namely, comb a lot of the product through my hair in small sections, use a salon-style flat iron that heats up to 450 deg, don’t wash for 72 hours, and keep the hair flat and dry during the entire 72 hours). The comment regarding the smell of the product during the 72 hours is correct – it is a weird smell, almost like burnt cereal, and your hair is slightly greasy. I recommend doing the treatment over a long weekend where you don’t have any major plans. Anyhow, this kit saved me the 0, it made my damaged, chemically-treated hair soft and manageable, and my hair is easy to style, curly or straight.

For curly-haired girls out there, I highly recommend the book “Curly Girl” by Lorainne Massey. The most important point from the book: stop using shampoo. It dries your hair out and makes it frizzy. Only use conditioner. These keratin products work best if you use shampoos/conditioners that DON’T have sulfates in them (this strips the keratin off the hair shaft, making it frizzy). I promise if you only use conditioner and not shampoo, your hair will not stink from not being properly “cleansed”.

To sum up, I think to get the most out of this keratin product (which I’ve been using for 4 mo now and get salon-quality results from it) you need to nix shampoo, use salon-quality conditioners (ones with silk or keratin proteins in them) and use a high-quality high-heat flat iron when using the product. My coarse, frizzy, unmanageable hair is now a halo of soft, gorgeous wavy ringlets that I can actually run my fingers through (I could NEVER do that with my frizzy curls…)

Not what you think, February 21, 2009

Well, having been a product junky most of my life, I was very excited to try this new LK system. I got it before there were any reviews and was skeptical but had really high hopes for it. I have thin curly/frizzy hair of which I wear both straight and wavy or curly. I have been looking for a miracle product most of my adult years.

I followed the instructions completely to the letter. During the flat iron process my hair looked absolutely gorgeous. I looked almost like I had Brazilian hair. I was very impressed and excited that this might actually work. The treatment itself smells like the DHA chemical reaction when you get a spray tan. I didn’t let that bother me though. In the end, after the 48 hr neutralization, I decided not to blow dry my hair but to wear it curly. I had hoped the frizz would dissapait and it be wavy – not curly. I put a very light styling product in to test. Guess what – FRIZZ central. It did not improve the frizz nor make blow drying any easier. I was very dissapointed in the product. Claiming you have to use their products to make it last is a croc to me too.

The only thing I can say is that I can try it again. It does say cumulative affect so perhaps that is the problem. But as others have noted, it seemed to change the color of my hair very slightly (auburnish). I just colored and wouldn’t want to risk it. So, later down the line perhaps.

I wouldn’t spend the money on this product. I wish I could send it back. BTW. beware of biast reviews (hmmm, some reviews I’ve read here and other websites seem rather fishy to me – such as the companies marketing dept.)I had the hightest hopes for this product and am a 32 yr old woman always looking for something better.

IT WORKS PEOPLE ARE USING IT WRONG!!, June 19, 2009

By

D. Chambers “hair guru” (new york, new york) – See all my reviews

the product works as well as it is supose to! People are using it wrong. first off for the people who complain about it being to greasy during the 48 hour period need to use less of the prodct. its only a 4 oz bottle and with that four 0z you should be able to get 2-3 aplication out of that. STOP TRYING TO USE THE WHOLE BOTTLE AND STOP USING MORE THAN YOU NEED! THATS WHY ITS LEAVING YOUR HAIR VERY GREASEY! when you aproach the step where you have to saturate your hair with the treatment you should gentely squeeze your hair with a towel so that you dry it a little before adding the treatment this way you can see if you are over saturating your hair with the treatment or undersaturating it. Also you have to comb from roots to tip for even distrabution so you dont have to spray it too much because you will distribute the wetness throughout by combing it. The next biggest mistake people make when buying this product is to think this is end all be all. this is only a safe alternative to chemical straightening therefore healthier BUT not as effective as a chemical treatment. it will lessen your frizz and it will loosen up the curl of your hair but when you wet your hair dont think it will be straight. It will stay curly becase its your natural hair. The only thing the product will do is make your curls look more tamed and for some it will tame their curls to look like a soft wave instead. When you blowdry or flatiron you hair it will become straight!(the more heat source used the better the results, ceramic flat irons at 450 degrees give the best straight hair results although you dont have to use a flat iron that high)Once your hair gets wet after straightening it, it will curl, but the keratin will just shorten your styling time when you try to straighten your hair out again, and it will stay smoother and straighter in humidity. If your looking for straight hair for more than 30 days, even when you hair is wet, and when you let you hair air dry then this is the WRONG PRODUCT FOR YOU. this prodct is for people who enjoy their natural hair and just want it to be tamed and want it to take less effort to style/ heat straighten.
