COMMON QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
Results typically last 3-4 months with proper home care, though duration varies based on hair type, texture, and maintenance routine. During your consultation, we'll provide realistic expectations specific to your hair. Finer hair may see results lasting toward 3 months, while coarser, curlier textures often enjoy benefits extending to 4 months or beyond.
-
We recommend coloring before your keratin treatment when possible, as color can be applied the same day as your treatment or shortly before. However, our specialists will design the optimal sequence for your specific goals during consultation. If you're a regular color client at Fourteenjay, we'll coordinate timing to ensure both services complement each other perfectly.
-
Keratin treatments work by infusing protein into the hair's structure to reduce frizz and enhance manageability while maintaining some natural texture (unless you prefer maximum smoothing). Unlike older straightening methods, modern keratin treatments are customizable and less damaging when applied by trained specialists. We'll explain exactly how keratin treatment compares to alternatives during your consultation, ensuring you choose the right service for your goals.
-
Post-treatment care instructions vary based on the specific keratin formula used for your hair. Some modern formulations allow washing the same day or next day, while others require waiting 48-72 hours. Your specialist will provide precise instructions tailored to your treatment. Following these guidelines carefully ensures optimal results and longevity.
-
Keratin treatments can benefit most hair types when properly customized and applied by experienced specialists. However, certain hair conditions may require preparatory treatments first, or may be better served by alternative services. Our consultation process identifies the safest, most effective approach for your specific hair. Sometimes this means modifying our standard protocol or recommending a different service—because your hair's health always comes first.
-
We recommend shampoos and conditioners specifically formulated for keratin-treated hair. Aveda offers exceptional options that we'll recommend during your treatment. Using the right products dramatically extends your results and protects your investment. We'll provide specific product guidance tailored to your hair type and budget.
-
Most guests return every 3-4 months to maintain optimal results, though individual needs vary. Some prefer to let treatments fully fade before reapplying, while others like to refresh before complete fade. Your specialist will recommend the ideal timeline based on your hair's response and your satisfaction with results. We'll also discuss whether spacing treatments further apart might be beneficial for your hair's long-term health.
