Wash hair
Dry hair
Add formula
Use a flat iron to dry it stick
straight
Then, and this
is definitely the worst part, you have to wait three days before washing
it. My face looks drawn and ugly in
stick-straight hair. But after washing
it, my hair is shiny, soft, easily managed, quickly blown out, and never
frizzy. I love the results of this
process. In fact, I used to mimic them in high school by ironing my hair. Stick straight is okay on a 15-year old face.
Since 2008,
I’ve been getting a keratin treatment about every six months, though my last
was in October. I am way overdue.
About a month
ago, I purchase a Groupon for $99, significantly less than the normal $250
cost. I have never heard of the salon
that is offering the Groupon, but a friend of mine has had her hair done there and
was happy with the results. I research
through Yelp, and determine that Julie is the best stylist there.
The place,
Sergio Limpopo, is clean. While the
owner is surly, I very much like Julie.
In fact, I like her so much that
I talk to her through the entire one-hour process, something I rarely do. I much prefer reading. But Julie, who is from the Ukraine, is filled
with interesting stories. And, she is a knowledgeable
and proficient hairdresser.
I decide to
pay the $27 upcharge that allows me to wash my hair after 24 hours (vs.
72). But then Julie tells me that if I
can wait 48 hours before washing it, the results will last longer.
So, here’s my
hair today. I’ll be in hibernation for
the next two days.
