$39 for a Keratin Hair-Smoothing Treatment in Cherry Creek ($125 value)

Hello Gorgeous at Oxygen Salon & Spa

Frizz may have been appropriate in styles maintained by 1980s rockers, but like acid-washed jeans and lacy gloves, out-of-control curls have gone out of style. Remedy your curly, frizzy or coarse hair with this deal from Hello Gorgeous inside Oxygen Salon and Spa in Cherry Creek. When you buy this deal for just $39, you’ll receive a keratin straightening treatment, a restorative treatment that can benefit those with curly, straight or wavy hair. It minimizes frizz, softens curls, and leaves hear smoother and shinier, while increasing the hair shaft's resistance to damage. This keratin treatment is unique because while other similar treatments require you wait for 72 hours to wash your hair and contain various amounts of formaldehyde, this formula requires you to wait only eight hours before washing your hair and is formaldehyde-free. Also, this service only takes up to 90 minutes, while many other keratin treatments can more than three hours.

Tips on preparing for your keratin treatment:

• Be ready to refrain from washing your hair for eight hours after your treatment to give the solution time to work

• Use moisturizing shampoo before your appointment, but don’t use oils or heavy conditioners at least two days before your treatment to avoid disrupting the straightening process

Keratin is a protein found naturally in your hair; it can fill gaps in the hair cuticle that are dry, cracked or damaged. It is mixed with a formaldehyde-free solution, which will help hold the keratin molecules together. Then it is applied to your hair and sealed with the heat of a flatiron.
