Hair Straightening

Hair straightening solutions have certainly come of age!  At Lily Jackson Hair & Makeup Sydney we offer two types of straightening treatments:

Keratin Treatment – non permanent

Keratin Treatments are a non permanent hair treatment:

  • The hair is coated with a Keratin solution (keratin is the protein found in hair) which is then bonded to the hair cuticle using heat from hair dryer and from straightening irons.
  • Keratin treatments help smooth wavy and frizzy hair hence giving an end result of straightening the hair.
  • Keratin Treatments can also help recondition the hair and restore shine.
  • The hair structure is not altered.
  • Typically treatments last between 6-10 weeks with the results tending to improve with each successive treatment.

There are many brands of keratin treatments on the market.  We have tested many brands in our search for the best product that delivers excellent results. And we continue to keep searching so you can feel confident of always receiving the best available in the market place.  The life of all keratin treatments is extended by the use of appropriate keratin safe shampoos, conditioners and masks.

Not all hair will be suited for a keratin treatment and results will differ from person to person.  Feel free to book in for a complimentary consultation where we can ensure you’re getting the right advice.  Check out our video below where a client gets a keratin treatment.

Brazilian Hair Straightening.

This form of keratin treatment originally emerged from Brazil.  There are many brands of keratin treatment on the market today, not all offering the same levels of health and safety with some brands being taken off the market.  We continually research and trial new brands of keratin treatment to ensure we offer our clients the most effective solution using the safest ingredients.  We currently use Trichovedic Keratin Smoothing Treatment – a brand backed by professional independent safety certification. It is also Sulfate-free. Sodium Chloride-free. Paraben-free.

Thermal Straightening – permanent

This method of straightening changes the internal structure of the hair so that it gives a permanent straight result.

  • Once these processes have been done the hair is permanently altered.
  • The permanent straightening system we use is gentle on the hair but effective enough to give hair a straight sleek look.
  • Thermal straightening is suitable for people with thicker and or curly hair.

Follow up your straightening with the appropriate aftercare and you will have beautiful healthy straight hair.

Typically only the roots or regrowth need touching up after about 12 -16 weeks.
