Keratin Treatments in West Palm Beach

Our keratin treatments work by replenishing the natural keratin in your hair, fortifying each strand with renewed health and strength. This process effectively reduces the frizz of split ends and restores a radiant shine to your tresses.

Some salons use harsh chemicals to strip the hair before adding the keratin. At Anushka, our expert hair stylists apply a specialized, chemical-free keratin treatment to infuse the keratin with your hair strands by use of heat application.

Bond Ambition

Rather than using chemical straighteners to break down the bonds of the hair’s structure, thus compromising its integrity, our chemical-free option coats the hair with keratin. The application of heat, such as from a flat iron, seals the keratin onto the hair shaft, enveloping the cuticle in the treatment’s restorative benefits.

Results from this kinder and gentler keratin treatment can last for up to 5 to 6 months, especially when supported by keratin-based shampoos, conditioners, and more from our boutique.

Having a keratin treatment in West Palm Beach can:

• Smooth hair strands to reduce frizz and make hair more manageable
• Add a healthy-looking, glossy shine to hair
• Re-bond hair to reduce the appearance of split ends
• Strengthen the hair and minimize breakage
• Reduce drying time
• Enhance the thick, luxurious appearance of hair

As a surprise bonus, blow-drying and flat-ironing your hair helps to reactivate the keratin treatment for longer-lasting results.

Keratin is a protein that makes up your hair, nails, skin, and even some organs and glands.

Hair

Keratin is the primary structural protein in all hair strands. Its fibrous nature strengthens hair and increases its elasticity, preventing breakage and minimizing split ends.

Keratin forms the cortex, or middle layer, of hair. The hair’s outer layer consists of dead, overlapping cells that protect the inner layers from damage, almost like layered, flexible shields.

The center of the hair, called the medulla, is soft and fragile, made up of keratinized cells and air pockets. You’ll find a medulla in thick hairs, but sometimes not in thin or fine hairs.

A Quick History of Keratin Hair Treatments

Though they may not have realized keratin did much of the straightening magic, ancient Egyptians reportedly used heated flat iron plates to activate keratin and thereby straighten hair.

However, modern hair treatments emerged in 2003 with the Brazil keratin treatment.

These treatments gained popularity for their ability to smooth and straighten hair, reduce frizz and improve manageability. The process involves applying a keratin-rich solution to the hair—and then like Egyptians of old, applying heat to both seal in the keratin and activate its abilities..

At Anushka, we recognize the value of this vital protein and understand all it can accomplish for your beauty. With a keratin treatment in West Palm Beach, we can eliminate frizz from your hair and deliver smooth, shiny results.

How long your perm lasts depends on your at-home perm care routine. Our stylists will help you create the right at-home hair care routine that can help you maintain your curling or keratin treatments at West Palm Beach for up to 6 months.

Qiqi permanently changes the structure of your hair, which creates the common concern that it permanently damages your hair. But Qiqi is safe for use on all hair types and textures and is much healthier for your hair than continually using a straightener, causing long-term heat damage.

Cali curls are actually their own type of perm! However, a traditional perm will create tighter, more uniform curls, whereas cali-curls will create looser, more natural-looking curls. If you’re unsure which one to get, we recommend having a consultation with one of our stylists to determine which curling or keratin treatment in West Palm Beach is right for the look you’re hoping to achieve.

For hair treatments, manufacturers derive keratin from natural sources. These manufacturers may use animal-derived, high-keratin value materials such as hair, nails, feathers, and horns in the production of keratin. Wool delivers the most significant source of keratin, containing up to 95% keratin by weight. It finds use in both cosmetic and biomedical products and applications.

Manufacturers grind these materials into a powder, and use various extraction processes to draw out and isolate the keratin. Once this has been done, they introduce the keratin into treatment-specific products for hair.
