Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Keratin Express.

Keratin Express typically takes 45 to 75 minutes depending on hair length and texture. Consultation and styling are included, offering a faster option for smoothing without the time commitment of a full keratin.

Keratin Express is formulated to be color-safe for most clients and should not strip permanent color when applied correctly. We recommend a strand test and informing your stylist about recent color services to ensure ideal results.

Expect smoother, frizz-reduced hair for approximately two to six weeks, depending on hair type, styling habits, and product use. Sulfate-free shampoos and reduced washing extend results; periodic touch-ups help maintain smoothness.

In most cases, Keratin Express can be applied to color-treated or relaxed hair, but permed or heavily processed hair requires caution. A consultation and strand test determine suitability and prevent over-processing.

Use sulfate-free shampoos, avoid daily washing for a few days, and apply lightweight leave-in conditioners or serums. Protect hair from chlorine and saltwater, and follow stylist product recommendations for best longevity.

We generally recommend spacing color and Keratin Express treatments by at least one to two weeks to avoid chemical interactions and ensure optimal color deposit. If urgent, schedule a consultation and strand test.
