Inconsistent curl and fuzz made it impossible for Joanna to air dry her hair. Along with flat-iron damage and poor layering… the client was frustrated.

Happy at last! Stunning results. With the cuticle sealed, Joanna’s hair shines with an obvious new healthy glow
PRAVANA PERFECTION SMOOTH-OUT

- The client also had a haircut that was heavily layered about the bottom, creating a picture frame of fuzz and way to many ends for her to deal with.
Keratin, Japanese Thermal Straightening or Perfection. Joanna is 14 and headed to ninth grade and wanted hair that was more manageable and…. as pretty as celebrity and magazine hair. At no fault of her own, Joanna would fix today’s problem frizz with her Chi flat iron… however she was only making tomorrow’s problem fuzz with the continual breakage.
Flat iron weathering is a crazy cycle to get in. The damage is usually characterized by dry ends or flyaway hair. However, if breakage occurs, it can happen anywhere along the length of the hair and cause a shaggy or skimpy appearance to the hair. When this occured, Joanna used her Chi iron even more frequently to try to tame the broken or uneven appearance of her hair – which led to more damage.

Incredibly thick hair and a halo of fuzz were too overwhelming for Joanna to step into ninth grade with.
So after booking an appointment for some type of smoothing service, I began with a 10 minute deep conditioner. After rinsing and randomly drying… I knew that Joanna could benefit from the milder option. PERFECTION SMOOTH-OUT. If her inconsistent curl and breakage were severe we would have went with the Hapuna Keratin. If she had an overwhelming amount of curl that she constantly battled with, then the Japanese Thermal would had been her route.

Air drying is now an option. Using two and a half pumps of Wild Ginger Awapuhi Treatment Oil, Joanna can let her hair air dry with confidence.
I selected a 30 minute saturation period where the Perfection SmoothOut solution was applied, distributed and combed straight through the hair. This is some THICK hair so the “low heat” drying and the intricate ironing took about an hour and a half (no Jorge the assistant on this day) HOWEVER…. Joanna’s patience and my hard work paid off. The results were STUNNING.

Effortless blow-dried while using NO flat iron. Incredible shiny healthy hair is hers. HELLO NINTH GRADE!!!
Joanna left the salon with gorgeous hair and also some Wild Ginger Awapuhi sulfate-free moisturizing shampoo and keratin cream rinse. She wants to extend her new shiny coating as long as possible. She also has the Wild Ginger Treatment Oil. Smooth and seal parched hair with natural oils and hydrating Awapuhi extract. This dry-touch oil absorbs easily into the hair, imparting a soft, silky texture and allowing Joanna to let her hair air dry with confidence.
With a promise to minimize the flat-iron and to deep condition weekly PLUS with the “less damaging” autumn and winter season approaching… Joanna could have this incredible PERFECTION hair for the remainder of 2012.
