GENERAL MAINTENANCE
– Don’t wash your hair for at least 72 hours
– Avoid brushing wet hair, or brushing too vigorously
– Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners only
– Wash with cool/warm water, not hot
– If you have hard or well water, invest in a good shower head filter
– Reduce frequency of washing to once or twice per week
– Always use a heat protectant
– Never set your heat tool higher than 350F
– Use a deep conditioner as needed

REMINDER
Lightening uses bleach and is damaging to the hair. Excessive brushing, heat, etc., can further damage your fragile hair. Lightening services require a commitment to maintain its look between service appointments. Failure to follow these instructions will result in fading and yellowing, and perhaps irreparable damage to the hair.

FIRST 72 HOURS
– Do NOT wash your hair for at least 72 hours
– Wear hair down AT ALL TIMES – Do not tuck hair behind your ears or use clips
– If hair gets wet within 72 hours, blow dry on low and flat iron on low/medium, NOT above 375F

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
– Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners only
– Wash with cool/warm water, not hot
– Reduce frequency of washing to once or twice per week

REMINDER
A keratin treatment is NOT a permanent straightening treatment. Once you wash your hair, it may not be straight. It will, however, be easier to manage, have a reduced blow-dry time and less frizz.  

FIRST 72 HOURS
– Do NOT wash your hair for at least 72 hours
– Avoid brushing or combing as this pulls on the curl
– When possible, “scrunch” hair to reinforce the new curl pattern
– Avoid swimming pools or hot tubs
– Do NOT style your hair with heat

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
– Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners only
– Wash with cool/warm water, NOT hot
– Reduce frequency of washing to once or twice per week
– Avoid heat tools, such as flat irons and curling irons

REMINDER
A perm is a permanent restructuring of your curl pattern – it will not eliminate frizz. The more you touch your hair or run your fingers through it, the “fluffier” it will become. Use a good curl cream/mousse/gel to keep your curls defined.
