Keratin smoothing

starting from £120

The K8 Keratin Smoothing treatment begins with a deep cleanse to prepare your hair for the keratin application. The keratin formula is then carefully applied to your hair, working to smooth the cuticles and reduce frizz. After processing, your hair is blow-dried and flat-ironed to lock in the treatment, leaving your hair looking sleek, shiny, and frizz-free. This treatment adds long-lasting smoothness, making it easier to manage and style, while also enhancing natural shine for a polished, healthy look.
