Orangix Brazilian Keratin Therapy Line

Brazilian Keratin Therapy Shampoo - $7.99  


Wow is all I can say for this line.  All the products I have tried, expect for the conditioner, have worked wonderfully together and they have totally improved the texture and appearance of my hair.  I know I say all the time that i have super damaged hair and since using this line my hair is better than I could have ever expected it to be.  I do still think my hair is a little damaged but nothing like it use to be.

If you have any sort of damage from split ends to frizzy hair or just damaged hair from heat or over processing it try this line out!  I think the 30-day smoothing treatment is my favorite and the shampoo is perfect to maintain the results and the anti-breakage serum is just a little extra something to help my ends.   


**I paid 9 dollars at Stop & Shop but online at Ulta it cost more

At Home Keratin Treatment

Affordable - A keratin treatment in a salon can be anywhere from 60-200+
Easy to apply - As you could see in the video the application process was simple and it took about an hour and fifteen minutes.
Results - My hair looked amazing after! While it did not eliminate all curls my frizz and split ends almost completely disappeared.

Cons -
Smell - My hair smelt so bad! I actually could not believe how terrible it smelt, the smell was the worst when I was straightening my hair but it lingered on till I washed my hair.
Appearance - My hair felt and looked greasy before I washed it out :\ I would not wait till the 48 hours was up.  This goes with appearance, I could not put my hair up to make it look less greasy, you had to keep your hair down and you could not do anything even put it behind your ears.

Advice - 
Put this treatment in your hair when you are not going anywhere or not seeing anyone.  Next time I do it I will lock myself in my house and do nothing ;) I also think I will try leaving it in for more than 48 hours, I read so reviews on salon keratin treatments and people left it in for close to 4 days. 

Overall, I would repurchase without a doubt repurchase this treatment! It was affordable and my hair looked great afterwards.  I ended up going on vacation shortly after I applied the treatment and since I went in the pool the treatment did partially get removed from my hair.  Some of the curls in my hair did come back but my hair still looks frizz free and is very soft, the wave just kind of started coming back.  For me the pros out weight the cons and this treatment is well worth it.

I do not think this treatment will be reduce super curly hair but if you want frizz eliminated and a reduction in your waves or curls I would say give this treatment a try.
