No, the treatment reduces frizz and relaxes curls but does not permanently straighten hair. Results vary with curl pattern and processing; curls typically return over time as new hair grows and the treatment naturally wears off.

Avoid washing for 48-72 hours if recommended, use sulfate-free products, avoid tight hairstyles immediately after, and minimize heat exposure. We provide personalized aftercare instructions and product recommendations to protect results and keep hair healthy.

You can color before or after, but timing matters. We often recommend coloring at least two weeks before or waiting 1-2 weeks after the treatment to ensure optimal color retention and treatment performance. Consult stylist for personalized scheduling.
