Japanese Straightening with Zoe - Sleek and Smooth Hair

So finally after 72 hours I washed my hair,  I was nervous thinking it might not have worked. But all I can say is.... WOW!!!! My hair really is straight!!!! Normally when I wash my hair after it's been straight for a few days it feels really stringy and hard but not this time, it felt smooth and silky to the touch... And what about the fantastic Agave Shampoo and Conditioner products they are amazing and my hair feels fantastic!!!!!

This treatment is exactly what I needed  as a busy full time working mum, it was so great to be able to wash my hair and give it a quick 3 minute blow dry and off I go!   Nicky

AMAZING!!!!

Agave Smoothing Treatment -Zoe Paull here... this is my hair!

I have really fine, coloured, wavy, frizzy hair and I would not be with out my Agave treatment ! Agave is a smoother.It relaxes the curl and takes away frizz! 

1/ Agave is a smoother and de-frizzer! So it makes it so much easier to blow-dry! 

2/ If you are in humid climates or damp weather your hair will not go frizzy.

3/ Agave is not only for curly hair, it's a fantastic repair treatment for damaged hair. The Sugars from the Agave plant flood the hair with moisture and seal it in,to allowed hair to be smooth and repaired!

So you have had your hair straightened before but.......

I am constantly told 'I have had my hair chemically straightened before but it didn't last - will Japanese Straightening last?'' WELL - there may be two reasons why you weren't happy - one - it wasn't Japanese Permanent Hair Straightening and - two - how long had the hairdresser been doing the treatments for?

Preforming Japanese Hair Straightening and getting outstanding results is an Art - trust me - I have 11 years experience in treating all types of hair, and Japanese Straightening does last.

 If you want something that lasts until your hair grows out...

Sleek and Smooth Hair

Sleek and Smooth Hair

Japanese Straightening (also known as thermal reconditioning) is best for bulky, loose to medium—but not kinky—curls. The hair is saturated with a solution containing a chemical that breaks the bonds that give each strand its shape; it is then rinsed, blow-dried, and meticulously flatironed. Once a neutralizer is applied, the hair is locked into this new, straight configuration. The process can take up to five hours the first time (depending on length and thickness); For three days after the treatment, you can't get your hair wet or do anything kink inducing (like wear a ponytail), and while your hair will now be Sleek and Smooth (even after air-drying naturally), you're left with one styling option: bone-straight. Even curling irons or hot rollers won't restore volume or wave.

Dare to compare? I have 11 years experience in these treatments, my prices are competitive as my salon is within my house - therefore lower running costs.

Nicky

Nicky is blown away by how straight her hair is!!! She can not believe it's her hair! I have been doing Japanese permanent straightening for over 11 years.

The more experience the technician has the better the results .It really works ! No hair is to curly to tame!!!!! If you would like help with your unruly hair, sleek and smooth hair is the place to come ! Please call Zoe for a phone consultation on 0437 295 390. It can change your life !!!!

Read Kim's Testemonial about her life changing Japanese Straightening...

I had my hair Japanese straightened by Zoe at the start of December (now July). I was a bit skeptical if it would actually work as I have had my hair permanently straightened previously however within a month it was back curly again. It would also never come out dead straight I would always have to blow dry it straight. I have been amazed at the results of Japanese Hair Straightening. Seven months on I can still wash it and let it dry naturally and it dries straight. I have been to Bali where the humidity usually causes my hair to go frizzy but nope dead straight still. My hair still feels soft and I am constantly getting comments on how shiny and healthy my hair looks. When the time comes I will definitely be back to get it done again :) Thanks Kim

Hi Zoe, 

I can't thank you enough for letting me experience the joy of Japanese Hair Straightening. It's only been a few days but I'm already enjoying the benefits of healthy straight hair.

Goodbye to frizz and unwanted curls. I have had so many great comments already. I will certainly be recommending this treatment to my friends. Why should I be the only one will gorgeous hair. Thank you so much. I ❤️ it. Xxx

PRODUCT OF THE WEEK....

This week - I thought I would give you all a run-down on the most intensively repairing product I sell and recommend - Agave Healing Oil.

This product is the workhorse of the three Agave products as it keeps the hair in optimum condition. This is a light weight oil which is non-greasy. A little bit goes a long way which makes the product excellent value for money. I strongly encourage all my clients to purchase the Agave home care products when they have their Japanese Permanent Hair Straightening Treatments to make sure they look after their hair properly to get the best out of their new sleek and smooth hair.

Here are the facts - the Agave Healing Oil will restore and rejuvenate unmanageable, frizzy hair with the hydrating and color-restoring sugars of the agave plant. Unlike heavy nut oils, this plant extract conditions hair with a light touch, building strength and resiliency, while helping boost vibrancy and color. Other natural botanicals like coconut, vanilla, sunflower, and safflower are blended with madagascar baobab seed oil to nourish and transform hair’s outer layer. 

How it Works - The amino sugars in agave soothe damaged hair and infuse it with moisture. This fragrant healing oil treatment is also packed with plenty of other natural conditioning ingredients to keep hair soft and sleek: vanilla, coconut, and baobab seed oil, to name a few. And it’s free of the stuff that’s not so good for your locks: parabens, sulfates, and phthalates.

How to Use - Warm a dime-sized dab of oil between your palms and distribute it throughout damp hair evenly, from roots to ends. Air dry for a natural look, or blow dry for a sleeker style. And don’t stop there—this also doubles as a hydrating body oil!

Purchase online NOW for $40.

Read this review on Agave Healing Oil:

I received a sample of the Agave Healing Oil and fell in love with this product so I have now purchased! It’s an amazing hair oil ( better than Moroccan oil!) it leaves the hair super shiny and non-frizzy. Since it’s a hot oil treatment it is activated by using heating products. I almost always have to use my hair straightener if I want straight frizz free hair but with this product I can just style with my blow dryer and get the same result. I also have fine hair and this product does not weigh it down. I have had this experience with almost every hair oil product I’ve used (and I’ve used a lot, including very expensive ones). This bottle pump allows just enough to style the hair. I take one pump of the oil, warm it up in my hands and work it through my hair. The price for this product and the result you get is unbelievable. Don’t hesitate!

How long did it take to do your hair this-morning?

Interesting Read - Japanese Hair Straightening or Brazilian Blowout?

Japanese Hair Straightening or Brazilian Blowout?

April 17, 2011 By Victoria Strander 1 Comment http://thebeautyrules.com/japanese-hair-straightening-or-brazilian-blowout/ 

 
The Brazilian Blowout, also known as Brazilian Keratin (the treatment’s primary ingredient) only lasts two to 4 months. Unlike the Japanese Hair Straightening process, which sticks to a lock-straight hair, its main purpose is to de-frizz the hair while still allowing it to curl, wave or become stick-straight. Your hair soon ends up taking its natural form on the entire length and not only at the roots.

Brazilian Blowout also differs from the thermal reconditioning in the sense that the Japanese system actually changes the bond (cuticle) of the hair, while the Brazilian Blowout only smoothes it out – the hair damages are repaired, hair becomes stronger but not physically restructured like in the Japanese Hair Straightening.

Finally, the Brazilian method uses Keratin, a complex containing Formaldehyde, considered carcinogen and that has raised some doubts about the safety of the treatment, and also because some pain and burning sensation in the throat and the eyes can be experienced. Such effects are unknown in the Japanese system, which uses ammonium thioglycolate (Thio) as main active ingredient. The safe percentage of formaldehyde (approved by FDA) is considered 0.2% but many salons use a 2% concentration solution (ten times higher).


 
Thio is used in the Japanese Hair Strengthening in a solution of less than 10%, making it safe for hair use since the approved concentration by the Cosmetics Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel is of up to 15.2%.

The Brazilian Keratin treatment is, however, cheaper. The whole treatment costs between $250 to $500, depending on the salon and on the length and thickness of your hair. Maintenance is also cheaper but needed more often.

In Conclusion…

When you decide it’s time to change your hair look, research and questions are your two best friends. Browsing the Internet for options and talking openly to your stylist can avoid many unnecessary headaches and health risks.
