Wavy Hair Treatment That Brings Out the Best in Your Texture

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

• Will a keratin treatment make my wavy hair straight?

  No—unless you want it to. At SMOOTHED, every keratin treatment is customized to your goals. If you want to keep your natural wave, we use a formula and technique that smooths frizz, softens the pattern, and enhances shine—without flattening your texture. Your waves will look more defined, controlled, and easier to style, not pin-straight. For clients who do want a straighter look, we can adjust the formula accordingly. But unless explicitly requested, your wave is preserved—just upgraded. That’s the beauty of a properly tailored keratin treatment for wavy hair.

• How long does the treatment last?

  Most clients experience results for 3 to 5 months, depending on hair type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Wavy hair tends to hold keratin well, especially when properly maintained with sulfate-free products and minimal heat. Over time, consistent treatments lead to longer-lasting benefits and healthier texture overall. Your stylist will recommend the best care routine to extend results. We also offer express versions for those seeking shorter-term results. Whether you’re maintaining daily manageability or fighting seasonal frizz, a professional wavy hair treatment can significantly reduce styling time and improve consistency.

• What are the risks, and how are they avoided?

  The main risks of keratin treatments include over-smoothing, breakage, and damage from formaldehyde exposure—most often caused by poor technique or harsh formulas. At SMOOTHED, we eliminate those risks entirely. We use only formaldehyde-free, non-toxic formulas and conduct thorough, hands-on consultations to evaluate your hair’s health, texture, and history. Every treatment is matched to your specific needs, applied by trained keratin specialists, and processed with precision. Our goal is long-term results, not temporary shortcuts. You’ll leave with hair that feels stronger, smoother, and healthier—without compromising your natural wave or safety.

• Can this be done on color-treated or damaged hair?

  Yes, and in many cases, it actually helps. Our wavy hair treatment options are safe for highlighted, bleached, and chemically processed hair—especially when damage or dryness is a concern. The keratin helps strengthen weak strands, restore lost protein, and seal the cuticle to reduce frizz and breakage. However, not all color-treated hair is created equal. That’s why we assess your hair in person before every treatment. If your hair needs strengthening or hydration before keratin, we’ll guide you toward the safest path forward—because your long-term hair health always comes first.

• Do I need a consultation before booking?

  Not necessarily—but it’s available if you need it. Every treatment at SMOOTHED begins with a full, hands-on consultation on the day of your appointment. That’s when we assess your hair in person, feel your texture, and select the right formula. If you have questions or concerns before you book, we also offer free virtual consultations. Whether you're unsure about your hair type, previous damage, or treatment outcomes, we’ll give you honest, expert guidance so you can move forward with confidence.
