Service Description
Your keratin treatment at Meraki Salon begins with a clarifying wash to remove buildup and open the hair cuticle. This prepares your hair to absorb the keratin formula fully.
The keratin solution is applied section by section, ensuring even, thorough coverage. After processing, your stylist uses a flat iron to seal the keratin into the hair shaft. This step is crucial for long-lasting results and is performed with precision.
The entire process takes approximately 2–3 hours. Aftercare instructions are provided, including recommendations for sulfate-free shampoos and how to maximize the longevity of your treatment.
