Keratin Hair Treatment Before & After (#2)

[@Luhhsetty]

Yes, but my point of the video was that each treatment makes your curls looser & looser. I liked the way the 1st treatment first made my curls & I learned the hard way that the KT will continually straighten your curls if you don't wait till all of the previous keratin is 100% out. For someone who wants straight hair, this would of been a great step towards that goal, but for me, I wanted to keep my tight curls but with the help from the keratin to control them. :)

[@Luhhsetty]

Not yet. This is my second treatment so the Keratin bonds are very strong now. I think by December or January my curls SHOULD be fully back. For someone who has hair that lacks curl definition I would most likely think the Keratin Treatment would help bring out a little more natural girl. I definitely would give it a try.

[@appleloniaday7492]

You actually looks so much more beautiful with curly hair.

[@Luhhsetty]

I paid $100 (the price depends on how much hair you have, the amount of product they must use, and how long it takes to complete the treatment) and the brand is "Coppola Keratin Complex"

[@Luhhsetty]

I definitely would recommend to wait until you are completely natural. The Keratin is very much still a chemical process, so 2 chemicals on top of each other is never good. Yes, The Keratin helped define my curls and helped the curls to become more visible. Before (natural hair), my hair was "frizzy" and all over the place! :) good luck

[@Luhhsetty]

yes! I had my first one done is August and within weeks I saw new growth. I got my second one in January and now its been 4-5 months and I have about 3-4 inches of new growth on average around my head. This is a big deal for me because my hair grows super slow!

[@Luhhsetty]

I know this scared me when I looked into it. Keratin treatments actually contain a derivative of formaldehyde which is not very dangerous. They have banned all of the Brazillian Blowout Treatments in the USA which are harmful.

[@Luhhsetty]

I wash my hair every week with a sulfate shampoo. Don't over wash because your hair will get really dried out! Also, I have been doing conditioning treatments every time I wash my hair (once a week with a conditioner with ZERO protein) If you want a quick fix, go to the beach. The salt in the water will revert your curl. You could also Add salt to water and soak you hair in it. Make sure you condition after because this will dry out your hair! good luck :)

[@Luhhsetty]

+Kayla Bonnet Trust me.. it took MONTHS for my hair to show signs of reverting. Use sulfate shampoos and conditioner that has zero protein in it. It's just a matter of time, they all come back and spring up on ya!

[@therainydaydreamersshow6311]

How many months? My daughter is biracial and had super curly hair. Our hairdresser talked us into the non-faladyhyde keratin and I was in tears after b/c her hair was SO much less curly. It IS super soft and still has curls, but some of it is straight and stringy. I have called the company and they promise that her curls will come back…probably in 90 or less washes. Did your hair ever get its' curls COMPLETELY back?

[@christinegrimmond7164]

What brand did you use for the 1st and 2nd treatment?

[@Luhhsetty]

I just checked out your channel, I love your hair! it's really a personal preference if you are looking for a change. It's awesome because its not permanent! If you ever miss your old curls, the keratin will wash out in a couple of months! (:

[@Luhhsetty]

haha thank you! And yes! That is what drove me crazy, because my hair would be really long when wet, or when I straightened it and when it dried, it shrank up to my shoulders! The keratin treatment helped with that tremendously. :)

[@Luhhsetty]

Yes, exactly! I thought the keratin was almost out of my hair but it wasn't! I loved my curls before, haha. Good luck on your keratin! :)

[@kaylaj.7410]

your hair grew a lot from the first one

[@Luhhsetty]

I have medium brown, golden brown, and dark golden blonde highlights :)

[@PictureMeNatural]

Honored to be your 7000th subscriber! Keep doing your thing hun :)

[@Luhhsetty]

Omg!! Wow thank you! :)

[@PictureMeNatural]

Late but no thank you hun

[@PictureMeNatural]

I know! She's incredible!

[@Luhhsetty]

Let me know what happens! :) My hair is stuck in this semi curly/wavy stage. It's been months since this treatment and the keratin is still going strong! I miss my natural curls.

[@Luhhsetty]

Rihanna- Lost in Paradise & thank you

[@nalamelody5287]

I'm 3 years late 😂😂 but I'm saying if the stringy parts appear again use coconut oil ( a little bit) and Echo styling gel . And scrunch it it gives the curls life 💕

[@Luhhsetty]

Like a zombie with my hair parted down the middle, hair on the left and right side of me! I was a little extreme, but I didn't want to mess it up!!

[@Luhhsetty]

I'm making a video about this this weekend :)

[@NedraHaymon]

I learned my lesson too with the Keratin treatment. In the profile pic, I didn't have one. I didn't know my hair would stay straight forever. I thought the Keratin was a process where my hair was just softer and straighter without a relaxer and I would still be able to wear curly styles. You live and learn. I know I will never get another one. I miss being able to wear curly hair styles.

[@The_Madwess]

Nedra Haymon you can always curl it yourself

[@DianaBearable]

I have had the Encanto Brazilian Keratin for 3 years and love it. They had advised each successive treatment my hair would get straighter and smoother. This it has done. My hair is healthy shiny and growing. I have cut 8 inches off in that time and not from split ends !! It grows and grows !

[@DeathtotheAshes]

Keratin is for those who regularly blow it out, not air dryers. Each keratin service has a commulative effect. Meaning, the more you do it, the straighter the previously treated hair will be. Which is why she had fish hook ends. It’s a smoothing/straightening treatment.

[@DeathtotheAshes]

Fancy_jai No. It’s permanent until your roots grow out. Your mids to ends will not magically get curly through time. Only the roots will be virgin.

[@Luhhsetty]

I will make a video about this next week :)

[@saimaberrii]

the point of the treatment is to straighten hair without hurting the curl pattern. so that you can have bone straight hair and THEN still have a beautiful curl pattern after the treatment fades. some girls are extremely protective of their curly hair, but still might want to see what their straight hair will look like

[@erienspice]

I appreciate seeing this second video because you can see how your hair has grown from the last video. I am currently growing out my hair to do this as well, so that I can manage my hair into something other than an afro. Being mixed can be difficult for these reasons, but I want to thank you for sharing this with us.

[@KyleesWorld]

I just want to say I watched your video by mistake the new one now I’m drawn in.. subscribed and started watching your very first video🥰.. congratulations on your KZbin success

[@shinettafreeman3163]

Good luck, this happened to me. I have bsl 4c natural hair. I received my 1st Keratin treatment in October... I loved it at first but after 3 months my hair was growing really fast and my stylist wanted to give me a 2nd treatment but my ends were not reverting back. I will not get another treatment. 10 months later and my hair is not the same... Great video!

[@Luhhsetty]

The keratin Treatment infuses your hair with keratin, expanding the hair follicle, which makes your hair straighter and smoother. It does NOT get rid of all curl for only ONE treatment. I have another video on my channel explaining it more. (: "My Keratin Experience (Before and After)"

[@sunflowergarden93]

I absolutely love your hair! its beautiful after the keratin treatment and everything seems perfect. Im getting my very first keratin treatment done on saturday and im so nervous as ive read so much blogs about the hair falling out and being damaged n thinned after doing the keratin treatment on your hair after the third time...i see that this second treatment for you was last year so you would have done alot by now. Is the keratin treatment really damaging on the hair and does it make it thin and brittle? Thanks so much

[@korrinjone7035]

No the Keratin is supposed to do the opposite. It helps your hair grow and with frizz. Its supposed to help your dry time and frizz but not ur curl pattern.

[@2Phyre]

I did the Zelo at home keratin treatment for coarse hair at home, and my hair came out straight but very puffy. It was puffy but soft and smooth. I will wash soon so hopefully it can flatten out :/

[@Kribbean_Mermaid]

you should do only the new growth . To keep curl like you're 1st KT i think. You're tightly curl was so beautiful

[@karalattimore8527]

i love your curly hair better! (curly and straight are both gorg) but the curls fit your face beautifully!!

[@swhatley1226]

aww! loosing ur curls is really sad! i just had my first treatment about a week ago. It was the paul mitchell brand. idk that it loosened ur curls that much! thanks for sharing ur experiences the 2nd time around and the tips on how to get ur curls back!

[@violetw8583]

i love it just like that with the loose curl pattern. i have the same tight curl pattern as you and i hate it! much rather it be loose. i am doing keratin treatments too.

[@SittingontheSun1]

Oh, you can do the roots too if you do it at home. That's another way to keep your curls. I did them for 4 years. Another thing is to just use Keratin Infusion hair cream or Sabino Moisture Block hair serum. :) You are adorable, btw.

[@bellagrace7929]

2019?🥰

[@esther.513]

When I went in for a Keratin treatment they told me that it would take away up to 3 curl patterns and they also said it would build. So I'm not sure if you weren't told this but your hair did what it was supposed to do.

[@elsaboo81]

Wow, I am so glad that I watched your video 1 & 2! I am one month into my first keratin treatment and so far have been very pleased with it. I had not idea what I might face when I plan to get the second treatment in a few months. You really opened my eyes to that and made me aware that it may not be as great. I really felt your pain :'-). We, women, especially naturals, are really tied to our hair. After all, we put so much time and effort into it (hence all these youtube videos on hair!). Thanks so much for the heads up and I hope you made a 3rd video so we can see if things got better :-)

[@Luhhsetty]

Yes, we are all so tied to our hair! haha. Check out this video if you have not already Keratin Treatment Update this is my hair currently.

[@Luhhsetty]

Canon PowerShot ELPH100HS

[@luv2bcurly]

THANK U SOOO MUCH for the detailed coverage of curly, straight, curly, straight.! This is very informative.

[@Luhhsetty]

No not at all. I have tough hair :)

[@AmberHoskinsBeauty]

why would you get keratin treatment if you didnt want your hair to straighten and relax?

[@Luhhsetty]

After my 1st treatment, my curls were perfect. The part about the Keratin that I wanted to utilize is the way it loosens your curls without being permanent (my curls are so tight it could never straighten my hair fully). After my 2nd treatment, my curls became waves which I did not want. I did want the KT to relax my hair, but to an extent.

[@mikelita95]

i feel you! we don't even know what we want first we want it straight but then we want it curly

[@armywife2248]

You have helped me with the decision on whether to get this treatment or not! Thank you for posting the information! :-)

[@Sah0419]

LOVE your new hair color btw!!!!

[@Luhhsetty]

I'll look into this!! and thank you :)

[@TnATalk]

If you are scared of formaldehyde, I would suggest maybe using QOD organic or Organix 30 day Brazilian smoothing. I used Organix and my waves have come back fine, no damage, and no breakage. I moved to a very humid area so my hair was a huge frizz ball, lol!

[@simpliiawesumm3098]

Mixed Chicks is also a good sulfate free shampoo and conditioner line

[@mariahbenson6529]

OMG, I can't believe I actually found a legit curly-haired example on youtube. I see people claiming to be curly, but they don't know what curl is til they see my hair! I have mixed girl hair and my curls are a tad tighter than your (natural) curls. But I love the result of your 2nd Keratin treatment. I have a quick question. When and if you wore it natural after your 1st and 2nd treatment, did your curls shrink and make your style shorter? Mine usually do and i can never wear it natural !!

[@katinawalls4301]

I was upset the my curl pattern changed too, then i started using deva curl products and my curls were more beautiful than ever.

[@Jazminekg]

when you get a keratin treatment it's made to wear your hair straight for 6months than after that your hair is suppose to revert back to normal. If you only want your hair straight for three days I recommend just getting a blow out.

[@CheFab1984]

This was helpful. Thinking of getting this treatment for my daughters hair.

[@sharrybelly438]

You Just got a new subscriber ❤. I'm about to do my Hair too, except mine is gonna be An anti frizz treatment.

[@SittingontheSun1]

I'm growing my keratin treatment out. They made my hair bone straight. The only one that kept curls in my hair was QOD Max Organiq.

[@Agcookie80000]

Im thinking of doing this to my hair. But now in 2016 do you regret doing it or are you still happy you did it ?

[@Agcookie80000]

Because I don't know what this will do for my hair if it will get damaged

[@deenaelraie7006]

You have no idea how much you have helped me with making my decision about getting the treatment🙌 Do you recommend it? I have mostly 3C hair and I am planning to keep it straight for the duration of the treatment. Thanks 💞

[@niyahbanz]

I wouldn't do it the keritain treatment is one of the reasons why she cut her hair. It made her hair stringy but everyones hair is different

[@allycat9809]

i would recommend it if you want your hair to be straighter, i got mine done last tuesday (it's sunday) and washed it yesterday for the first time and it went from 3b to 2b/c and it's nice and shiny and soft so i would definitely reccomend it

[@Luhhsetty]

thank you :)

[@simpliiawesumm3098]

All of your curls are beautiful

[@mariapizarrosath8147]

The treatment I do is called nanoplastia, more gentle and I do it on my own hair too and my hair is growing like crazy! I couldn’t grow my hair past my bra strap… now my hair is almost to butt lenght! I do miss my curls though

[@roxymarie3765]

This was the best review! Finally someone who shows all the washes! :) thanks so much!!

[@juanvarela6540]

Omg its amazing how much prettier you've gotten in only 5 months😍😍

[@ulivias]

omg I finally found my curly twin! I had almost exact the same natural curls as you did, but I've only done one BK treatment, in June 2013. However, in my country, formadelhyde is prohibited so I did av version without it, and the haridresser said it was necessary to do a texturizer first, or else there wouldn't be any results. So I did and I was about as shocked as you were in this video... like, I miss my big froooo! Good for you that you didn't get a texturizer before because that kinda makes the keratin permanent :( So now I'm transitioning back to normal. Idk, I just wanted to say hello and that YES I finally found a girl with the same curls as myself. I'm into the big fro now so I'm just waiting for mine to grow out aha. Even though I too kind of loved the keratin smoothness. Good luck with your hair :)

[@Luhhsetty]

I loved the smoothness too... sadly I am forced to transition to natural as well... kind of sucks but I'm excited to work with my real curls!!

[@mariapizarrosath8147]

If you don’t want your hair texture to change too much you need to do hair Botox instead of a keratin treatment. Hair Botox basically do the same thing but doesn’t alter your hair texture much. I’m also a hairdresser who do these treatments. Look into hair Botox treatments

[@tullysoulliere8254]

Just go with curls if you want curls ,and flat iron for straight styles ! you can just deep condition before and after flat ironing !why a chemical process to loosen curls ! you didn't like your loose curls !lots of money for what ! try large Velcro rollers or a steam straight iron from Walmart Remington Wet To Straight ,just use heat protectant first ! Works great !

[@carolynoh6112]

I find it interesting that you get keratin to loosen your curls and enjoy it straight but then you want more curls. The more you do keratin, the less curls you will see. this is normal. unfortunately no one is happy with what they get it seems ...

[@genni322]

Careful with overdoing protein treatments. Hair is protein and it is good to do once in a while, but too much of a good thing can be counteractive.

[@Yannii220]

i dont understand why you get the keratin if you just wash it three days later ? would you explain please? Luhhsettyxo

[@karalattimore8527]

your hair looks gorgeous how it was like wavy/curly! late I know LOL but my hair looks like that too

[@ambarpatrixiamercado3580]

The results you got from this keratin treatment is the one I got at my first keratin treatment. It was super disappointing, I mean I love my curls that's why I didn't get a relaxer but some of them were stringy and not at all bouncy.

[@cbrittany72]

Your such a pretty young lady! You look great either way!! thanks for the informative video. Im considering getting a keratin treatment! thanks.

[@Luhhsetty]

thank you :)

[@alexfromatlanta]

Youre so pretty!!!! Perfect face for makeup. Love the hair girl!

[@MsJBT100]

you have very very beautiful curls!! please let me know if this treatment damages hairs and causes hair fall. thank you!

[@erikamonique4492]

this is what I'm dealing with now with my hair going 5 to 6 months, having tons of new growth, and my treated hair still being curly or wavy. I got two treatments done. the 2nd made the older hair looser and now I have 3 different textures in my hair and I'm noticing a lot of breakage. thanks for the tip on using sulfate products because I only use sulfate free which is why I think the treatment lasted for forever...smh

[@craziicupid97]

I think I see what's going on. There are three different types if keratin treatments and I think you have the keratin straight which does permanently loosen the hair.

[@123pearbear]

Yesss exactly I guess she didn't know that!!! It sucks!!!

[@nishabascom8907]

Hmm i'm interested in this, but maybe for my second, third or w.e treatment i would only do the roots and get a keratin shampoo and conditioner to upkeep the "older" hair that has been treated.

[@Luhhsetty]

That was my whole issue in this video. Cosmetologists won't just do the roots. You must process all the hair to do the Keratin Treatment. That's why my hair become so stringy :(

[@nishabascom8907]

That's sucks :-( they just want that money. My mother did this to her hair too and she just did the roots and still had her desired curl pattern. You can order the treatment online and have the bottle just for your roots to do yourself. Its very easy :-)

[@Luhhsetty]

That's what I was thinking of doing but now my hair just needs time to be alone... Maybe in the future ;)

[@fezzard]

thank you so much for sharing this. its very helpful for us wanting manageable hair. so what shampoo and conditioner should we get to maintain the hair? can you suggest names or brands so that we can get it? thanks so much ;)

[@galoreuh3]

can you do a curly to straight hair video when ever you decide to straighten your hair again??

[@MandaElizLaw]

Why does it say video not available :( btw i lovee your hair & im thinking about getting the keratin treatment done bc lately i've been feeling for something new with my hair i have 3b/4a hair btw would you recommend it? Fan from all the way in Trinidad🙋

[@michaelaevans5307]

OMG😱 Luhhsetty, you look so different with straight hair ! You look mature & your age lol. I like the look🎓💁💁💁😋

[@dimples07uk]

the exact same thing happened to me the second time i had the treatment done, just waiting for it all to wash out and have my curls back :)

[@yesenianegron9291]

I love how you curl come out they sotf....i have curly hair my self ..i just did the Keratin Treatment today ..i really like my curly hair but its very damage ...

[@Luhhsetty]

mine personally was $100.

[@carolinemcdanel3625]

you're beautiful! I'm getting the keratin treatment tomorrow, wish me luck! ;)

[@Luhhsetty]

thank you for watching :)

[@emmaalexander3896]

Our hair has to be nourished from both inside and out side. Blood carries the vitamins, fatty acids to hair cell from inside, However, we can support our hair from the root to tip with some natural oil and hair care product. I have seen some comments about Ultra Nourishing Oil Treatment and shampoo from "arganlife products". My sister is using them. Her hair grows faster than before, which looks shiny and healty. check it out

[@MelSpeaksMD]

I got a BKT a few weeks ago and I love how bone-straight and frizz-free it gets with minimal effort.. but I miss my curls! My hair looks exactly like this (@6:50) after washes--kinda stringy/curly and I kinda miss my big hair =/ Can't wait to try the Tresemme thing..

[@Jacobismypet]

so im kind of nervous since i am getting my hair relaxed in order to have my curls loosened. I have no idea what this relaxer will do to my hair. The only thing i know is that my curls will probably be loosened. Hopefully, nothing goes wrong with the relaxer and my hair.

[@Luhhsetty]

Keep me updated. I am also looking into things like this to give my hair a little length. Would love to hear how it goes!!

[@Jacobismypet]

I finally got my hair relaxed today. It took about 3 hours. My curls have loosened and my hair is closer to the scalp. My curls actually move! My hair length used to be above my shoulders and under my ears when fully dried with a blow dryer and now my hair sits under my shoulders. The chemicals they used on my hair were not harsh, I didn't get much irritation. The hair dresser that I went to wouldn't relax my hair if i permanently dyed or coloured it. There is still shrinkage. I still have my curls, they are not that stringy. However, the treatment and conditioner they put into my hair made my hair feel icky and not that great to touch. Where should I send you the before and after pictures, if you want to see them? (I'm that girl that commented on your instagram post)

[@Jacobismypet]

Luhhsettyxo I finally sent you the email!

[@tiarewi281]

Oreos could i see them too

[@ecg8122]

Isn't a relaxer a chemical process that straightens your hair permanently not a product that loosens your texture into a not so tight curl ? You know like "Just For Me". I thought a texturizing was used to loosen your curls but not straighten it completely like a relaxer would.

[@dhdavis911]

I getting mine tommorow I hope it comes out pretty like yours.

[@MsOriginalPhenomena1]

But very informative so thanks for sharing ur keratin journal with us!

[@PlusSizeMakeupLova]

Thts something id be afraid of... over processing my hair to where i lose my curls..

[@14heartgirl]

So, would you say this is better than a perm? Also, would you say this is healthy for natural hair?

[@Ryan7197]

I had one and it made my hair stringy, I used a sulphate shampoo with table salt mixed in, couple of uses got my hair back to normal

[@eymic1]

after i got the keratin treatment on my bangs (i only got it put in once) my hair looked great straight and i loved it.... but it look horrible curly, my bangs don't curl at all. It's been over a year and my bangs still don't curl! I'm going to have to wait till my bangs grow out to cut them.

[@humanityages]

I enjoyed your videos since my hair is curly a little less than yours here from Holland :-)))

[@MzNaturalButterfly]

Your hair looks amazing! *new subbie*

[@alasiawynne9586]

I know this video is old but this helped me a lot an Cyprus hair is so pretty

[@laradigiovanne]

I know this was some time ago that you made this vid but could you please tell me what color you dyed your highlights? I'm in love!

[@julitrancy]

what song is that in the background?! and btw you are so gorgeous

[@mariannavenera1508]

To be honest I still prefer keratin hair like less volume more wavy than curly but it’s all about preferences
