Brazilian blowouts: the name conjures images of sleek, frizz-free locks with a mirror-like shine. But what exactly is this transformative treatment, and how does it work its magic on your hair?
What are Brazilian blowouts?
In essence, a Brazilian blowout is a liquid keratin formula that forms a protective shield around each hair strand, banishing frizz and sealing the cuticle for a smooth, glossy finish. Originating in Brazil, this treatment harnesses the power of native ingredients like camu camu and açai berry to hydrate and fortify your hair, leaving it resilient to heat styling.
How does a BBO differ from other Keratin treatments?
While similar in results, Brazilian blowouts offer a milder formula that can be customized to your hair type. Unlike traditional keratin treatments, there are no post-treatment restrictions with a Brazilian blowout – you can resume your normal activities immediately.
Will it straighten my hair completely?
The degree of straightness is customizable; your stylist will adjust the treatment accordingly. Whether you prefer sleek and straight or curly & voluminous, the choice is yours.
How long does a BBO last?
With proper care, a Brazilian blowout can last up to four months or longer. As it gradually fades, there’s no noticeable line of demarcation between treated hair and new growth, making maintenance easy and effortless.
What’s the BBO application process?
The treatment typically can take between one and four hours, depending on hair length and thickness. It involves shampooing, application of the formula, sealing with a flat iron, rinsing, and conditioning.
What about post-treatment care?
There are no activity restrictions post-treatment, and you can wash your hair at your convenience. Opt for sulfate- and chlorine-free products to preserve the results, and for optimum longevity use the BBO product range.
Is a BBO safe for coloured hair?
Brazilian blowouts are safe for colour-treated hair and may even enhance colour vibrancy. You can schedule a colour treatment and a Brazilian blowout on the same day for optimal results.
In a nutshell, Brazilian blowouts guarantee sleek and shiny hair for months, without much need for styling or applying heat. Schedule your appointment today and embrace a life of frizz-free confidence!
