I just had a similar treatment called Lakme Aura Smoothing Treatment (Lakme is the brand)! I just had it done a day ago. I’m excited to wash my hair and see it have way less to no frizz. 😁

Yay I'm excited for you!! 😃 I washed mine last night after 3 days and it still feels amazing 🤩 Also, make sure you use sulphate free shampoo, did they tell you all that?

Yes!!! There is a recommended set of aftercare products (sulfate-free shampoo, hydrating mask, and hair oil) all infused with argan oil. I’m so happy for us I hope everything goes well until the treatment washes off (and even beyond that!)

Do you have pic ? I’m looking for some treatment to tame the frizz but keep a soft wave pattern

My hair was reallyyyyy soft and slippery for the first like 3 months, it would not hold up in a bun nor pony tail and curling it was basically impossible. I went to the salon to curl and style it for my graduation and it practically all came down by the time the ceremony started, despite having applied hairspray. I’m on month 6 and it’s still straight (newly grown hair at the roots not withstanding) but it’s not as shiny or slippery at all anymore. I love it, I have naturally really thick and curly hair and it makes my hair so manageable, I go back every time my hair grows out.

Ugh I’ve been searching for this exactly but no salons near me offer keratin! Do you by chance know what brand your salon used? 🙏🏼

It's supposed to last 6-9 months ☺️ I will try and do a bun tomorrow 😁 You are supposed to be able to curl it and everything without it being messed up as I think she said it seals to your hairs cuticle.

Don’t do a bun!! At least wait a couple of days before you do an updo. I know they say you can after the keratin washes out, but in my experience it has left creases.
