Are you addicted to hair straightening treatments?
Do you feel sick after you go to the salon?
Are you ready to try something different?
Curly and wavy hair can be fabulous!
Let me help you rock your natural texture with a Curly Haircut.
I promise you, the safest alternative to a straightening treatment is to learn to love your natural texture. The fastest way to do that is with a great haircut. I provide curly haircuts that work with natural hair textures and are fun and easy to style.
Every haircut starts with a conversation about what you want your hair to do and how much effort you want to spend on it. A curly haircut is designed to put you at ease, as you watch your hair transformation take place. I believe that your hair should provide a beautiful frame for your face, and a balancing shape for your body. I love working with multi-textural hair because no two heads of hair are the same which means that your haircut and texture are unique to you. Bring me your curls and let me help you embrace your natural texture with a curly haircut and natural styling lesson.
Still on the fence about straightening your hair?
Please consider the following before your next straightening treatment.
Keratin treatments create a straight, flat iron look by using a formaldehyde-releasing solution that coats the hair and is sealed into the hair with a 450 degree flat iron. Once straightened, the hair may continue to release formaldehyde every time you heat style your hair after your treatment.
Formaldehyde is a sensitizer, which means that after you reach a certain level of exposure and react to it, you'll always experience an allergic reaction when you re-encounter the chemical. So the more times you chemically straighten your hair, the greater your risk of developing symptoms.
Clients and stylists exposed to keratin straightening chemicals complain of burning eyes, difficulty breathing, and other allergy symptoms. Other symptoms include: throat irritation, mouth ulcers, dizziness, headaches, vision impairment and fatigue. Accidental skin contact with formaldehyde may cause blisters or rash on the scalp, face, and neck.
Formaldehyde is a known carcinogen, proven to cause cancer in humans, with higher levels of exposure.
