Should I Get the Keratin Treatment on My Hair?
Question by la bella vita: Should I get the Keratin treatment on my hair?
I have very curly hair, and I love it.
But I find it way more easier to work with my hair when it’s straight or wavy. I also really like the look!
How long does this treatment last? Will I ever get my natural curls back?

I wouldn’t recommend them. There are many brands of hair straightening out there and they call them anyway they want to get your attention. Coco is another name brand. Some Japanese hair straightening processes can damage the hair and leave it flat and lifeless.
None is better than the other.
Keratin are not approved by the FDA. Visit their website & search for it in their web. If you’re thinking about the Brazilian treatment, there’s a danger about using formaldehyde, a chemical that causes cancer. The FDA does not restrict the use of that chemical in cosmetics.
Relaxers are for permanent, but they are damaging to hair.
Go to the FDA website & type in permanent or relaxers so you understand what are the side effects.
