There are a few types of straightening methods used in the world today and this one reigns from beautiful Brazil and is hugely popular in the Americas, Asia and Europe. The Brazilian hair straightening method is a cheaper alternative to the Japanese straightening method but does not last as long (approx 2 to 4 months depending on hair texture). It straightens hair by using a protein-filled solution on hair, then applying a hot iron to it. After you have this treatment done, you’re not allowed to wash your hair for four days, and you have to use a shampoo that does not contain sodium chloride. Also, you can’t tie your hair back, so no ponytails for four days. In Brazilian hair straightening, a natural Keratin-based substance is used for straightening the hair.

The natural human hair is made of up keratin so the keratin based product helps protect and regenerate the hair. There is no need to revisit your hairstylist soon after as this treatment will make your hair perfectly straight after just two hours. Your straight hair will last for up to 4 months depending on the hairs texture. All types of hair including colored and chemically treated hairs can also be straightened using this treatment.
