permanent Hair Straightening FAQ's

What is permanent hair straightening

Permanent hair straightening is a treatment that alters the structure of your hair, transforming it from curly, wavy, or frizzy to smooth and straight. Unlike using a pair of straighteners at home which offers a temporary finish until your next wash, permanent straightening is able to deliver results lasting several months.

Permanent hair straightening can be achieved using a number of different techniques, products or applications. These include but are not limited to including Japanese thermal reconditioning, keratin treatments, Brazilian Blow Drys and chemical relaxers.

Is Permanent Hair Straightening Right For You?

Permanent hair straightening isn’t for everyone. The answer more often than not relies on your commitment to upkeep and/or existing health of hair.

Certain hair types, particularly over-processed hair usually won’t be able to withstand an intensive treatment such as permanent hair straightening and therefore in certain instances thee treatment wouldn’t be beneficial. In other cases, it’s dependent on your commitment to make appointments to maintain every three months. Budgeting for a hair straightening treatment is the final component. They are reasonably cost effective however it does require some independent action once every 3-4 months.

The Pros of Permanent Hair Straightening

The biggest upside of them all is the end result. Post treatment, you can enjoy smooth, straight hair for several months, significantly reducing the time and effort required for washing, drying and styling.
Following permanent hair straightening the reduced time and effort to style is significant. The other obvious benefit being that once hair is permanently straight, the time spent maintaining will be far less.
Permanent hair straightening delivers a much smoother and polished look that many women desire. Your hair will appear shinier and healthier, with a smooth texture that’s easy to maintain.

The Cons of Permanent Hair Straightening

Permanent hair straightening can often utilise strong chemicals to break down the bonds in your hair. Whilst limited exposure is shown not to prove detrimental to health, for some this may prove to be unappealing.
Whilst perhaps a lesser and more obvious concern, as your hair grows the roots will return to their natural texture, creating a contrast between the straightened lengths and the new growth.
Whilst short or medium-term use is largely okay, longer term use might not in all cases be advisable. Hair can always benefit from a rest where possible. It’s important to stick to aftercare too to ensure longevity.

Conclusion

Permanent hair straightening offers an efficient and effective straightening solution for clients in Oxfordshire who want to eliminate frizz and achieve straight hair. The treatment’s long-lasting results, low daily maintenance, and polished look make it an attractive option for those seeking a sleek hairstyle.

If you’re ready to take the first step, a consultation with one of Stylists is the first step towards achieving smooth and straight hair.
