Keratin Treatment Reviews: Do They Work and Are They Worth It?

She loved the initial smoothness but came to see the treatment as a mistake, tying it to weakened hair and shedding, and she would not keep repeating it.

She spends most of the video on whether keratin damages hair and whether it causes hair to fall out, treating both as real risks rather than myths.

After trying both, she walks through the facts and cost of each and lands on a clear preference for the keratin complex treatment over the Brazilian blowout.

She stresses that price varies a lot by region and that aftercare, especially avoiding certain products, is what makes the results actually last.

As a returning client she finds keratin worth the money, and notes her results actually improved when she got treatments closer together rather than years apart.

Her stylist charges about $350 to $400 per visit, and she got noticeably better results the second time getting them within a few months.

She does not write keratin off but urges caution, listing things she wishes she had known and telling curly and natural-hair viewers to confirm it suits their hair type first.

Her warnings are aimed specifically at curly and natural hair, where the treatment can loosen or alter the curl pattern.

Reviewing a salon smoothing treatment seven weeks on, she is pleased with the frizz reduction but openly refuses to gloss over the unresolved formaldehyde-safety question.

She publicly asks formulating chemists to help clarify the formaldehyde issue, treating the safety debate as genuinely unsettled rather than hype.

Skeptical of the Instagram ads, she bought the at-home kit herself and found it genuinely smooths hair, but with too little product, a bad smell, and results gone by six weeks she calls the value a maybe.

The kit worked and held through a few washes, but she says it is too expensive to repeat and better saved for a one-off special event than used regularly.
