Question 2

2. What sets a Japanese Straight Permanent apart from traditional straightening services?

Accepted Answer

The Japanese Straight Permanent is a game-changer. Unlike standard straightening methods, this process fundamentally alters your hair's structure, resulting in silky-smooth hair that's a dream to manage. This intensive treatment reconfigures your hair bonds, offering an authentic Japanese straightening experience that outshines keratin or regular straightening procedures.

Question 3

3. How long does a Japanese permanent straightening last on naturally curly hair?

Accepted Answer

Since the Japanese Straight Permanent essentially transforms your hair's structure, it holds up beautifully for up to 6 to 8 months. As your hair continues to grow, you'll notice the change. To keep your style fresh, we recommend a touch-up around the six-month mark or when you've got about 10 to 12cm of new growth.
