Why do I have to wait to wash my hair?
We recommend waiting so to allow the keratin to be sealed into the hair cuticle. If the hair is washed immediately after the treatment, the keratin will wash out.
If I want to get my hair done again, do I have to redo the whole head or can I just have a touch up?
There are no touch ups with the Global keratin treatment. You will get the treatment done again from the roots to ends. Remember it repairs your hair more every time.
What shampoo and conditioner should be used after the GK Treatment?
It must be a sodium chloride free shampoo and conditioner. Sodium chloride washes out the keratin faster.
Can I get the treatment done on a monthly basis?
Yes you may have it as often as you would like.
Can I cut my hair before the treatment?
We recommend cutting your hair after having the treatment done.
Can styling products be used during the first 4 days?
Styling products can only be used after the first wash.

Can I get the treatment done while pregnant or nursing?
No.
Can I go swimming in a pool or sea?
Yes but sea water and chlorine reduce the life span of the treatment. Sea water, which is salt water (and salt is Sodium Chloride), and chlorine can strip the keratin out of the hair quicker than normal water. When swimming in a pool or ocean, it is recommended that you use a silicone based product so that chlorine or salt water beads off your hair. Alternatively use conditioner or sunscreen.
What’s the difference between relaxers/Japanese straightening and the Global Keratin treatment?
The Global Keratin hair treatment is a keratin based hair treatment that smooths the hair. It can also help recondition the hair and restores shine. The treatment does not alter the hair structure. Relaxers and Japanese straighteners work on breaking and rearranging the internal bonds of the hair. Once these processes have been done the hair is permanently altered. The new growth of the Japanese straightening will always be curly, but the previously straightened hair will never revert back to its original state.
Can I do the GK treatment at home?
No. The procedure involves a long and detailed hair straightening process using irons and driers. It takes over 2 hours, and this is not something somebody can “have ago at”. DIY is not recommended!
