Hi Cindy,
It is a Eco friendly formula
It that does not have toxic chemicals in the formulation.
It does not produce harmful fumes.
It also does not have any formaldehyde or thioglycates in the formula, which is toxic, carcinogenic, erosive, and flammable.
There are 4 steps in the process see below:
Application Protocol
Wear gloves supplied during the treatment.
Step 1
Shampooing: The shampoo is then gently massaged on hair with fingers for 30 sec.
Rinsing: Hair is thoroughly rinsed with water (at about 36° C.) using showerhead.
Drying: Hair is dried with a hairdryer (80° C.) for about 10 min.
Step 2:
Reduction Treatment: Split hair into 4 sections. Apply 20 ml Step 1 to each section. Bring the sections together and apply the remaining product (20 ml). Leave for 10 minutes.
Rinsing: Hair is thoroughly rinsed with water (at about 36° C.) using showerhead for 3 minutes.
Drying: Hair is dried with a hairdryer (80° C.) until almost dry..
Step 3:
Crosslinking: Add step 2 to the dry hair ensure that all the hair is covered comb through hair with a wide tooth comb. Spray the product onto the hair by combing it with a wide tooth comb.
Leave on hair for 10 minutes.
Drying: Heat is applied on the hair using a blow dryer (80° C).
Shaping: Hair is shaped i.e. straightened using a flat iron at (210°C.) go over hair at least 3 times with flat iron ensure that it is straight. This is the most important part and the hair will become like dry grass and will keep the shape that you have used.
Rinsing: Hair is thoroughly rinsed with water (at about 36° C.) using showerhead for 3 minutes.
Step 4
Conditioning & Styling: Use the keratin rich hair conditioner and leave on for 5 minutes, rinse and style hair into the desired style. Do not wash hair for 2 days.
Could not comb hair through at step 3. Did only the fringe and had to wash. Felt like there were glue in my hair. By the way I have very short hair. Don’t know how people with long hair will be able to comb through it. Really disappointing. Not recommended.
Dear A, it is very important to follow the correct instruction when using the Green Brazilian Treatment. After STEP 2 the hair all of STEP 2 must be removed by rinsing very well and then towel dry and dry with hair dryer until damp. Then STEP 3 can be applied on sections of the clean dried hair, it is recommended that the hair be divided in 4 sections throughout the treatments and that each section is treated before moving on to the next. If it is applied on the whole scalp the hair will not be manageable and the reaction of STEP 3 which is the “Glue” part of the treatment that will fix the hair in the straight position will get out off control and become a sticky mess. A WARNING for future users do read the instructions carefully and rinse and dry hair very well before moving on to the next step of the treatment. It is also very important to divide hair in sections and apply the treatment to each section and not all the hair at once. STEP 2 is the part that opens the hair cuticles , STEP 3 then seal the cuticles into the new desired position, whether into curls or into a straight line in case of curly or fizzy hair. It does not work like keratin treatments that only repair damaged sections, this is a reactive treatment that actually transforms the hair structure using natural and green ingredients. The hair will feel like glue, it is the reaction that takes place to fix the hair in the new desired shape, continue with the process and shape with flat iron, the hair will then become like “dried grass” this is normal and the hair will not break or be damaged. After the whole head has been flat ironed, then the hair must be rinsed very well to remove STEP 3. Continue to STEP 4.
Got this green Brazilian about a week ago. It is amazing!! My hair’s texture is way smoother and it is so shiny. My hair routine has cut down from 30 minutes to 9 minutes. Highly recommended this product!
Was impressed, followed instructions to the letter and my hair came out the exact same way. money wasted
Dear April, Please note the Green Brazilian treatment will not change or remove the natural curl of your hair, it will smooth the hair shaft and repair any damage to to the actual hair with natural ingredients. This will then result in smoother, stronger hair which will not frizz in damp or humid weather. The hair will also be very shiny because of the smoothing effect and repair of the hair.
You will still have to flat iron or blow dry the hair after STEP 4 to get it straight, but the actual time to do this will be guaranteed to be reduced to less than a quarter of the time you normally would spend. If it took you 40 minutes before this time will be reduced to about 10 minutes after the treatment. The product will thus do what it claims ” No Frizz without the Fuzz”. An added benefit is that the less time you have to spend shaping the hair means less damage to the hair and the longer you can grow your hair without breaking it.
