OMG!! Wow yeah the kit I've been using for the past 4 years is called Moroccan Keratin, and I get it for $40 on eBay. There was another one I tried that was good too for the same cost, but can't remember the name. Maybe the ones at the salon are designed to last extra long? The kit I use keeps my hair sleek and straight for about 3 months. I usually do the treatment 2x per year.

The Professional Smoothing solution is like $180 for the small size the largest one is almost 400.. Brazilian Blowout products are by far the most expnsive backbar treatment s we have in our salon.. Not sure where you can find that for $40

You don't need to forego the treatment just because your hair is bleached. Actually, bleaching opens the cuticles, making it even MORE receptive to the keratin! I always buy the kit on eBay and do it myself at home. In the US it costs around $300 to get it done professionally, which is insane considering the kit only costs around $40. But yeah I have wavy, coarse hair and have used BKT whether it was bleached, colored, or natural - always turns out great.

This was my second one at this particular place and of anything it's been better than my first experience!

My mom says that it doesn’t work as well after the first time, so I never did it... :(

Not in my experience, no. I believe it's better to dye your hair around 2 weeks before this and thks treatment kind of "locks" in the colour

Does it affect the color?

Haha you're too kind, thank you! I got my hair bleached in 2017 and it did quite dry my hair out. I did a few things to help, first is to oil my scalp once every week/two weeks and second is every other weekend I whisk two tablespoons of yogurt with one egg (maybe add a spoon of oil) and apply it as a hair mask for 35-45 mins then wash off. This conditions the hair and helped me a lot for when the bleach was drying my hair out. Whenever I do this mask my hair is really soft and I don't need to condition it for a few days :)
