How to find a good hair salon ?

Everyone wants the best colour, cut, style, blowout etc possible but how do you go about finding a competent hair straightening hairdresser..

The answer is word of mouth. If not in person ask the question on facebook.

Google reviews can easily be faked now so I try figure out if the review/s for that business are legitimate. Google reviews are flawed, anyone can open up multiple Gmail accounts and pump up their reviews.

Referrals/ word of mouth is the most reliable.  I do not trust the work I see on Instagram as every pic is filtered and photo shopped.

How to look after your keratin hair treatment

Looking After Your Brazilian Blowout.

You should use the shampoo that's best suitable with the treatment and the type of hair you have.

Do not wash your hair aggressively, just be gentle and your blowout will last longer. If you go to the gym daily then yes wash your hair everyday otherwise twice a week is plenty.

Colour and Keratin go together and in that order.

When having the Brazilian Blowout I recommend having the colour done first and the Brazilian Blowout done anytime after that. If the timing is off you can have the keratin treatment Brazilian Blowout first and colour the hair 2 weeks later.

You are permitted to use dry shampoo, this will not affect the Brazilian Blowout keratin treatment.

When swimming in the ocean always apply a serum in the hair beforehand this will protect your hair from the saltwater. After swimming rinse with fresh water. Same principle applies if swimming in the pool.

When using these principles the Brazilian Blowout hair straightening keratin treatment will last you over 3 months.

What is the best keratin treatment ?

The answer is unfortunately none.

It is just about impossible to know which salon is using genuine products or knocks offs. As of 2018 the keratin companies keep changing names cause their brand have a reputations for not working.

A number of salons in Sydney have resorted to buying google reviews and followers for their social media from IT companies in India to make them look relevant. If a supplier offered me a keratin bottle today I would knock it back, I would never risk using it on my clients hair.

Keratin treaments can change hair colour dramatically as it contains ingredients that fades the hair colour.

The brazilian blowout does not fade hair colour. It enhances it

 Do not be blinded by cheap deals, If they are doing it cheap it's cause the product they use is cheap. It is your hair. Your choice.
