Hello, I’m Brazilian and had done the Brazilian blowout many many times, in Brazil it is called “escova progressiva” which literally translates to progressive blowout, which around 80 or 90% has formaldehyde and they smell chemicals. In the US, there is a brand called Brazilian blowout yes, but from what I know, the Brazilian blowout here in the US is also the same name for the smoothing straightening treatment, which is the brand and treatment. Now, keratine treatments usually don’t have formaldehyde, it is only to turn the hair a little softer and straightened, but not drastic straight like the Brazilian blowout. Also, at least in Brazil, the treatment that you have to leave on the hair for 48 hours is almost not used anymore and it is one of the Brazilian blowout ones, not so intense and harsh (that’s why you can leave on the hair because it takes a while for the product to work on the hair) BUT the person has to go back to the salon to get it removed and then do some other step that I can’t remember. Nowadays most blowouts don’t need to stay in your hair for two days, you get out of the chair done and ready, you can even wash it on the same day. So that’s it in a nutshell, blowouts get extremely straight and shiny because of the chemicals (including formaldehyde) usually lasts around 3 or 4 months, the person has to use blow dryer after washing because heat activates the product that’s in the hair, and Keratin not so straight but shiny and less volume, I would even say that it’s like a very deep and good conditioning for the hair that lasts for a while. Hope it helps. :)

Not only was this very informative and helpful!? But (They sound soo much alike!? Adorable!) I appreciate our culture in genuine moments like this soo soo much! Ty 🥰🥰

So gorgeous! So shiny and smooth.

This video is extremely helpful. Thank you!!! ☺️

Great video.....and you're in Houston (so am I)! Good explanation: keratin vs Brazilian blowout. I'm a wash and set girl. Thank you for sharing

Back in high school I went from getting relaxers to keratin treatments instead. My hair was about waist length then. I’m natural now, but if I ever felt like permanently straightening my hair again, I’d do natural keratin treatments 😄

I know we are versatile and can do all sorts of things with our hair but I want her to know her natural coarse, thick, curly hair is beautiful. 😭💞

I do a lot of smoothing treatments on my clients. I’ve been using the Perfection SmoothOut by Pravana.

Sooooo pretty!

I love the chi system!

I wish i could find a caring salon in NYC that has this level of education!!!

She is so pretty

I love it.

Wow this looks great

Am enjoying your video from Ecuador

Very informative, thanks xx

Very informative thank you! I was in a Beauty Supply Store the other day and really didn't know what any of this was. I saw a line of "Smoothing" Products which consisted of 3 step process. I almost bought it thinking it was interesting until I noticed that "Brazilian" step had formaldehyde. Now to me, formaldehyde was the stuff they use at the morgue so I was liiiiiiiiiiiiike. Needless to say I didn't buy the product and kept researching so thanks again!

Thank you for this video!!!!!

Do you know what her hair porosity was? I’m considering a treatment but I’m not sure how it would react with my low porosity hair

Hi there what hair are you using.and is there some other products that can smooth hair out besides the you're using.and what is the name of the strong active agent in common brazilian products?Thanks

I think this would be perfect for my daughter. Wish i could get this for her.

I'm considering getting this but I exercise daily and sweat under a baseball cap. Will this effect the straightness and will I have to flat iron daily? I dont want it to get puffy evwryday that would be super annoying.

Your cellphone camera did a good job👍🏽👌🏾

I just bought one. I’m trying to get this done.

Hey Janae ! I hate that your located in Houston 😪. However do you know or recommend a stylist of your expertise that specializes in natural hair in Dallas,Tx ?

Good job sis. Please i have 4c natural hair . Please can i do this treatment every week bcus my hair is too strong or it can destroy my hair?

Very nice

I got a Brazilian blowout, I liked the results but my hair shedded like crazy afterwards! I thought it was falling out it lasted some weeks then my hair went back to normal

Love this video.. where are you located

Hi there! I live in Illinois. I want to plan a trip to your salon for a "hair" makeover. With that being said, can I get both Color + Balayage AND the Chi Enviro Smoothing Treatment at one time (same appointment)? I hate to make two trips to Texas.

Do you HAVE to wash it out after 48 hrs? I have waist length hair and usually wash it every 2 weeks can I wait that long to wash it ?

I got a Brazilian and it took my hair out...and thin it out.. I am trying to keep it from shedding.. However, I had the Chi.. a while back and it did not cause any breakage.. However, I have not been able to find anyone to do it.. so I tried the Brazilian... I am going to grown my hair out again and refused to allow anyone else to do it.. My hair reached my middle back when I did my own hair.. My boyfriend even noticed a major difference when I got the Brazilian... He loved it when I got the Chi Keratin...

Hey Janaè! Did you blowdry her hair in between sections/ quads or just when you finished applying the treatment?

Janae, do you recommend this keratine for 4c hair? Am transitioning and am experiencing breakage but am not ready for the big chop. so I was thinking about botox because i dont want the formaldehyde but since you mentioned theres Keratine treatment without it I wanna try keratine. Help a sister out please!

I thought chi enviro was discontinued a long time ago

Will it last through working out? How long? Thank you!

In which place is your saloon???

Quality doesn’t look bad at all

Question...please answer. Can you still wear a rollerset with a Keratin treatment? Meaning sitting under the dryer...

You are beautiful girl, 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😇😇😇😇

I go to hair cuttery for my relaxers and they have chi keratin treatments I was thinking about switching from relaxers to that but I only relax my hair about 2x's a year ... how long would you say the treatments last ?

Hmmmm

Use lots of olive oil on your hair, 👼👼👼🙏🏽😇

Don't use hair relaxers
