The new trend in permanent hair straightening

 OK so we all love our hair silky straight and sometimes we resort to the packages of relaxer or curl remover from Sally's to do so.  I'll be honest I love my hair straight and I have put relaxers in for ethnic hair. They work wonders. My natural hair is that of ethnic texture it is not curly it is not straight it is just a frizz ball before I style it.  We have all heard of the Japanese hair straightening system which has rave reviews. I personally have never tried the thermal straightening but there is a new one out that makes me want to experiment with it. Its called the Brazilian blowout. It isn't too new in the salons, but for those of us  who do things at home rather than overpay for salon services it is new.  The brazillian blowout  is basically the same method as the Japanese hair straightening system but claims to be healthier for your hair. It uses Keratin to "re bond" your hair meaning it takes the  DNA makeup and  completely restructures it to believe that it is and always has been straight. The only other difference is  The brazillian blowout only lasts for 2 months on virgin ( untouched) hair and 3-4 months on color treated/ previously relaxed hair. That is half the time the Japanese hair straightening lasts( 6-8 months)  but is it worth it due to the "so-called" less damaging that it does. Hmm. Sounds like a project. I will purchase the quantum thermal Japanese hair straightening system and the brazillian keratin smoothing system  I will do the Brazillian once first and test it to see how I like it  let it take it's course over the 3-4 months. Review it several times, once after I've completed the treatment. and once each month it's in to let you guys know how it does.  Then I will do the Japanese treatment  and compare the two using the same review methods. We will see which one is better. BTW you do have to be professional to purchase these products unless you know other means. I know other means. Thank you for reading. Look forward to the reviews.
