Keratin Treatment FAQs

What is a keratin treatment?
A keratin treatment is a professional smoothing service that infuses your hair with keratin proteins to eliminate frizz, add shine, and improve manageability. It creates a protective layer around the hair shaft, leaving it silky, smooth, and more resistant to humidity.

Is the treatment safe?
Yes! At Young Attitudes Salon, we use formaldehyde-free, vegan keratin formulas that are safe, gentle, and effective. Our treatments are designed to smooth the hair without harsh chemicals.

How long does a keratin treatment last?
Most keratin treatments last between 3 to 5 months, depending on your hair type, lifestyle, and how often you wash your hair. Using sulfate-free products at home will help extend the results.

Can I still wear my hair curly after a keratin treatment?
Yes—keratin treatments don’t permanently straighten your hair. They smooth the cuticle, reduce frizz, and make curls or waves more manageable. You can still style your hair curly or straight depending on your preference.

How is keratin different from a chemical straightener?
Unlike chemical straighteners that break the hair’s natural bonds, keratin treatments coat and condition the hair without altering its structure. The result is smoother, healthier-looking hair with minimal damage.

Can keratin be done on color-treated or highlighted hair?
Absolutely. In fact, keratin can help restore moisture and strength to color-treated or chemically processed hair, leaving it healthier and more vibrant.

How long does the appointment take?
Keratin treatments usually take 1.5 to 2.5 hours, depending on the length and thickness of your hair. We’ll give you a more accurate time estimate during your consultation.

What should I do after my keratin treatment?
For the first 48–72 hours, avoid getting your hair wet and do not use hair ties or clips. After that, use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to maintain results.
