Everyone wants straight hair. The past couple of years have been very exciting in the Hair industry. The arrival of the Brazilian Keratin Hair Straightening treatment has
opened to doors to some innovative hair products. While the Brazilian Keratin Treatment was nothing short of amazing, there have been some major health risks released about
extremely high levels of formaldehyde. Since the health risk release we have seen several alterative Brazilian Keratin Treatments. Most of them claiming to be free of
Formaldehyde. Turns out that the majority of them have Formalin in them and when heated to 450 degrees (as you have to when performing a BKT) the Formalin turns into a
formaldehyde gas. So let's talk about what is out there that is truly safe.
The first product is called Pravana Perfection. Pravana Perfection At Last. Breathe Easy. Your hair will be instantly transformed and smoothed to perfection. The Superb

While meeting with my product rep this week I learned about a new straightening product from RedKen. This product gives you three choices. You can re-texture straight hair
to have curls, you can straighten your hair perfectly stick straight, or you can tone down your curls/frizz without eliminating your curls and body. While the Pravana
Perfection does not use chemicals the NEW REDKEN product does. However the technology in this product is amazing. Anyone who knows anything about perms or relaxers will
tell you how harsh the chemicals are on their hair. The reason why perms and relaxers can often leave your hair feeling dry, unmanageable and damaged beyond words is
because during the processing of the products the chemicals BREAK APART the bonds in your hair. The new products from RedKen use the advanced technology of STRETCHING the
bonds. This new process does not break your bonds but rather stretched them just enough for the product to get in and penetrate the cuticle without damaging your hair. This
is the most advanced hair straightening product on the market.
