I live in a very humid climate, I cannot live without keratin. Just love it, my hair is maneagable, soft and silky, the only downside is that it lightens my hair a lot

[@Ohkeh640]

What’s your hair colour? Do you dye it

[@lilacdream1000]

@@Ohkeh640 hello, went I had this hair color I had mostly my own natural hair color but at the ends of my hair I had some hair dye left, and then I had highlights done all over.

[@bookbag6432]

I read online that formaldehyde is what’s actually used to bond the keratin to your hair. So a lot of treatments say they don’t have formaldehyde but they have a very small percentage and the smaller percentage ones need to stay in your hair longer.

[@tkeks007]

they may actually not contain formaldehyde but it still develops in the process from a chemical reaction

Where has your mirror gone ? I loved that mirror ! Nice to see your treatments , not for me as I have a sore scalp . I need to wash mine daily otherwise it’s awful it’s fine and now is chin level bob , but I can’t get away without .

I tend to describe my hair as 1990's Michael Bolton's hair. I said this to a hairdresser who was half my age once & she didn't have a clue who I was on about. I said, oh I mean it's like candy floss in it's natural state lol. So funny. This is very helpful thank you x

[@limabean7235]

I’m a hairstylist and when this product first came out. The sales rep was doing a demo on it.everyone in the salon eyes was watering . I refuse to do in the salon and did it outside.clients loved it. They wanted to do it in my hair and I was like I like the option to wear my hair curl. I can just blow dry when I want my hair straight. I don’t recommend this Anyone using this. I did however do this on my daughter twice and her head is to be so beautifully curled and I never came back curl like it use to be.

[@ClaireMcD]

Nadine I've been having straightening treatments for 15 years - the MOST important ingredient to leave out is Sodium Chloride (SALT), SLS is not as much of a problem. Lots of people get this wrong x

[@LizzieWhiz]

My friend worked for a chemist years ago and he told her the same thing, if a shampoo when tested by popping a little bit on the end of the tongue and it tastes salty it will strip your hair and dry it out. That being said I do use Magnesium Sulphate on my scalp to help shift the dead skin cells and remove excess calcium which collects in the hair follicles and causes thinning - I find it has had an amazing effect on my frizzy hair. 1 - it has thickened the hair shaft, 2: I am not losing as much hair in the wash or throughout the week and 3 it has smoothed the hair shaft so there is not as much frizz. . I use cannot use many sulphate free shampoos and it took me ages to find a shampoo which didn't trigger contact dermatitis on my scalp . I use La Roche-Possay Kerium Physiological Soft Gel Shampoo . My son also uses it because he, like me, has the same problem with contact dermatitis and shampoos.

[@mspen6464]

hi, great review. i had mine done again just before lockdown. my hair is curly and frizzy.. i still needed my straighteners - if you have that type of hair its not going to be like a straightener. Also Kerastraight have now started selling the Intense boost so you can do this at home - which is great to keep it looking good while we are stuck inside.

[@amberatartimec2564]

Woop!! Thank you Nadine!! I've offered Kerastraight for about 4 years now as an awesome de-frizzing service. For me the USP's are that its offered by Trevor Sorbie who cares immeasurably for his client's hair, that the product is rinsed out of the client's hair before drying and ironing so that there is little if any fumes coming off, and that it reduces the drying time after treatment. I can't comment on the formaldehyde question as I'm not a chemist, but the results on my clients have been fantastic and many have said it gave better results and for longer than other systems they have tried, with a much more pleasant experience. PS also loving CeraVe Hydrating cleanser in the morning!!

[@TrevorSorbieTV]

Thank you so much Amber! We hope to see you back in the salon soon for your top up Kerastraight when the salons open again :)

[@s.maj.3747]

I didn't like keratin treatment. It made my hair so flat and it fell out for years after, my hair was never the same. Hair vitamins did help to get it back into some condition. I prefer natural hair now. A few kinks here and there is fine!

[@G7531]

Hi when did you get this done? And was it kerastraight? Wonder what caused it to fall out? Did the stylist over pass it with straighteners ?

[@Happyharold666]

Nadine! Those specs!!! 😍😍😍😍🙏👌

[@Smurfygurly]

Thanks for this, I was supposed to have this treatment next week, will rebook as soon as the salon reopens. It was quoted at £120 (I’m in Kent UK).

[@SerenitySaffron]

Ouch. Bournemouth it's only £65.

[@amberleemabe-stanberry9188]

Use dry shampoo between washes so you don't have to wash as much. Therefore, Keratin treatment lasts longer.

[@minooverdi5459]

About the brand: KeraStraight (Original Formula) Kerastraight is based in the United Kingdom. In August 2010, testing by the Department of Health and Children in Ireland detected 2% formaldehyde in the original KeraStraight solution and issued a product recall. The manufacturer responded by reformulating in late-2010, and in January 2011, launched a new product, KeraStraight KS Complex. KeraStraight KS Complex is advertised as “a 100% Formaldehyde and Aldehyde free keratin smoothing treatment . . . independently certified by Intertek.”

[@G7531]

Can I ask where you read this? X

[@oksanakulish9610]

Dear Nadine, please make a video on how you haircut your hair by your own. During carantine it is essential. Thank you in advance!!! Love you and all of your videos!!!

[@G7531]

The solution for strong virgin, resistant hair has additional glycolic acid,(in the form of a booster) this has only to be used on virgin hair. Not coloured nor weak. Result= breakage. Your scalp got dry because the solution somehow came in contact with your scalp( it shouldn’t) but if your sensitive, then rinsing it will still cause it to come into contact, the reason for this is because the solution is very acidic( ph 2-3) skin will dry out with anything lower that 4.5. X

[@itsmimi3154]

Are you still using this treatment? I gave up on Keratin treatments last August because they felt too unsafe with all the fumes. I also noticed that it was doing something funky with my scalp and also making it smell weird. Also when the treatment started to wear off my hair looked and felt so much worse!! Like a weird Cotton Candy feel. Now summer is coming and it’s the first time in awhile that I won’t have the treatment to help me fight frizz in this SoFlo humidity 😅. I wish the zero formaldehyde treatments actually worked so I could have an alternative lol. This is the first time in years that I’m embracing my naturally curly/wavy hair. I have a love hate relationship with it and relearning how to like it and take care of it. Keratin treatments probably aren’t really best for me anyways because I also have to wash my hair a lot or I’ll get a greasy scalp even though I have thick slightly dry hair. Weird combo and hard to balance lol

[@utalledo]

Same here. I had Brazilian Blowout every 4 months for a while but I feel guilty for the fumes I smell and also noticing hair loss not sure if its due to that? But now that Im leaving it natural I look like a lion. No kidding and I hate it.

[@katrinabauelle9845]

I have the exact same problem, just did keratin for the 4th time and the guilt of smelling those horrible chemicals gets to me really bad… I used cocochoco which claimes it doesn’t contain formaldehyde.. but it burns as hell.

[@marianaromero4538]

[@margaret77494]

I’ve been getting Kerastright treatments at home in America for years. 10 years ago, the treatment was more effective , but you could tell they were not good for you as they stung my eyes during treatment. Now, I can only rough dry and have my head smooth for a few weeks. I have thick, wavy/curly hair . I get this done 2x yearly as it is so expensive. In America I color my head right before the treatment, which locks in color and keeps it looking shiny and dark for ages. I wash my hair 2x a week and try not to wash the keratin out.

[@jordanxfile]

Kisses to Yogi 🥰 Nadine, by the way, I don't know if you have tried the Davines Nourishing line. The Keratin Restructuring treatment and corresponding shampoo and masks are really good for damaged hair. Also, for blondes, the Davines Finest Pigments Ash and Pearl colors mixed in 2:1 provide an excellent shadow root without any damage; they are very sheer stains. The brand uses mostly natural ingredients; it's what they claim, but I found some of their products to be very effective as well. I am not a natural ingredient freak by any means :) Maybe you could try them out; I have been a self hair colorist for over 20 years, too.

[@frieda1368]

Very interesting to hear your perspective. I had a kerastraight treatment three month ago (coming from a similar hair situation than you - very thin hair and nasty frizz) and I am still very very happy with it. Greetings from Berlin, Germany

[@LizzieWhiz]

The best at home colour is Schwarzkopf Colour Expert with the OMEGAPLEX complex you have to add to the colour, it is very good. will not be getting this done, I have enough problems with SLS and contact dermatitis.

[@jillyfish72]

LizzieWhiz ooh, good to know, thank you

[@LizzieWhiz]

@@jillyfish72 I only use a half a tube of colour to a bottle of developer because it is so pigmented, so it is a 1 to 2 ratio. I asked a hairdresser how to get a lighter colour using the same colour and he told me to only use half a tube. The colour doesn't fate as much as many at home colours.

The *only* reason Formaldehyde is in the product is due to the high content of protein and the need to keep bacteria growth out of the solution.
