| FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What is Keratin Complex Natural Keratin Smoothing Treatment by COPPOLA?
A: It is a specially formulated revitalizing and rejuvenating treatment for the hair that eliminates up to 95% of frizz and curl. The advanced patent-pending formulation restores and restructures hair by infusing a special blend of natural keratin deep into the cuticle. The keratin is bonded into the cuticle by the heat of the flat iron to relax the hair’s sub-cuticle layer.
Q: How long will the treatment take?
A: Time is determined on an individual basis however we generally allow a 2 to 3 hour window. This is a very intensive process that is personalised to your hair type and length for maximum results
Q: What results can be expected after the treatment?
A: The hair will be more manageable and take much less time to style. It will be noticeably softer and straighter, with added life and shine as well as a lengthened look.
Q: Can hair be coloured before the treatment?
A: Yes! The best time to have the treatment done is straight after you have had permanent colour, semipermanent or highlights applied. The treatment will extend the life and seal the colour in, leaving it shiny, vibrant and manageable.
Q: Can the treatment be done on chemically treated hair or straightened hair?
A: YES, It is recommended to wait two weeks between any chemical services (exclusive of colour). Your stylist will assess your hair type and provide you with an individual treatment unique to your hair.
Q: How many days after the treatment before the hair can get wet or be washed?
A: You must wait a minimum of 72 hours before washing your hair or swimming. This allows the treatment to permeate the entire hair and achieve best results. Washing your hair or swimming within 72 hours will severly limit the effectiveness of the treatment.
Q: Can the hair be pulled back or clipped up during the 72-hour waiting period?
A: No. The hair should not have any impressions made by using bands or clips as this may affect the process.
Q: What should be done if the hair gets wet during the 72-hour waiting period?
A: Blow the hair dry and flat iron with medium to low heat immediately. Contact the salon if you have any concerns
Q: What kind of shampoo and conditioner should be used?
A: For best results we recommend using Keratin Care Shampoo & Conditioner (Sodium-Chloride Free) or Keratin Colour Care Shampoo & Conditioner (Sodium-Chloride and Sulfate Free).
Q: How long will the treatment last?
A: The treatment lasts 3-5 months, depending on lifestyle and maintenance, provided all the aftercare instructions are followed.
Q: How often can the treatment be done?
A: Whilst the treatment can last 3-5 months, it can be reapplied as often as every 4-6 weeks. As the treatment infuses natural keratin into the hair, the more you treat your hair the better it will become.
Q: Is the re-application of the treatment done on the entire head or just on the new growth?
A: The re-application should be done on the entire head as the build-up of keratin can only improve, not harm, the hair.
Q: Should the hair be cut before or after the treatment?
A: We recommend that the hair be cut after the treatment, as the hair will have a smoother texture and will lie differently.
Q: Can the treatment be done on pregnant or nursing women?
A: No. It is not recommended.
