I want to get the keratin straightenning treatment but heard of mixdd results. its quite expensive and I dnt want to fork put $300 for nothing. basically I have naturally curly coarse and frizzy long hair. its in very good condition at moment coz I stopped straaightenning but naturally it still luks the same! so is keratin worth it?

I did it when it first became real popular like 4 or 5 years ago! It was amazing! But only lasted about 6 weeks! They told me 3 to 5 months! It was around $500. I did a not Di intense version which claimed to last a month for around $150 two years ago! It worked in the Salon and I was amazed but as soon as I washed it, it went right back to normal. So I'm done with Keratin!! I have naturally curly (frizzes) thin, but a lot of it hair!! So it appears thicker than it is!!

That "di" is suppose to be "not as intense"

I say yes worth it. Mine is super curly and coarse. I get the Brazilian keratin, you only need to leave in 24 hours before washing out. It's stronger than the one where you wait 72 hours. I don't straighten often bc of the damage. Keratin lets me wear it natural and have it still be super manageable. When I do blow it out it takes half the time. For me costs $150.

I get Brazillian Blowouts instead of keratin. They run anywhere from $125-350. Had 3 done so far. If you use their shampoo and conditioner they will last at the very least two to three months. I could get mine to last for 4 because I don't wash it as often. I went swimming all summer and my hair was so soft and straight and looked beautiful when I had it done. I'll post some before and after pictures for you.
