and then, I have moments when my curly waves shine through. I was adamant about preserving my hair&#8217;s texture and avoiding chemical\u00a0straightening treatments\u00a0at all costs. This perspective, however, changed during a visit to\u00a0M\u00e8che Salon\u00a0in Los Angeles, when color expert\u00a0Matt Rez\u00a0recommended a\u00a0natural keratin treatment\u00a0called\u00a0Cezanne. During our chat, Rez assured me that this treatment would help me maintain my cherished natural waves while calming the frizz, so I decided to give it a try.<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_4-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> I also enlisted the help of two hair experts to help better explain the process. <strong>Keep scrolling to learn more abut the Cezanne keratin treatment and how it works.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_6-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-callout--meetourexpert beauty-sc-block-callout mntl-sc-block-callout mntl-block theme-meetourexpert\" data-tracking-id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-heading_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-heading mntl-text-block\">Meet the Experts<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-body_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-body mntl-text-block\">\n<ul>\n<li>Tania Whittier is a colorist at M\u00e8che\u00a0salon in Los Angeles.<\/li>\n<li>Savannah St. Jean is a beauty expert with over 18 years of experience.

Cezanne treatments give you the benefits of typical keratin treatments without the drawbacks.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> While safety should be the top priority, efficacy is important too. Whittier says that Cezanne is the first of its kind to deliver the five-star, frizz-free results her clients are seeking. &#8220;Formaldehyde treatments are done by pushing the keratin into the cuticle with heat, and the formaldehyde acts as its finishing product,&#8221; she says. &#8220;It gives the illusion of shine, but over time, the hair becomes dry because it&#8217;s too harsh on the hair, especially fragile hair.\u00a0Cezanne uses lemon and crab apple extracts to gently open the hair&#8217;s cuticle, allowing the keratin to enter the cortex.&#8221;\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Benefits of Cezanne Keratin Hair Treatment <\/span><\/h2>\n<ul id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<li>Formaldehyde-free<\/li>\n<li>Non-drying<\/li>\n<li>Customizable depending on desired results<\/li>\n<li>Can wash hair immediately post-treatment<\/li>\n<li>Natural ingredients<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_15-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Cezanne treatments &#8220;restore bonds that are broken from thermal services, but using a low pH, and is comprised of natural healing ingredients such as aloe vera, Vitamin C, E, B3, B5, and B6, and lemon, apple, and green tea extracts,&#8221; says hair and beauty expert Savannah St. Jean. The other thing that makes Cezanne unique, and the factor that ultimately convinced me to take the plunge, is that it&#8217;s truly customizable to a targeted texture.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_17-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> How to Prepare for Cezanne Keratin Treatment <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;The beauty of this treatment is that no preparation is needed,&#8221; says St. Jean. &#8220;Simply show up to your scheduled appointment with your trained Cezanne Hair Treatment Stylist, and be prepared to walk out with maintenance-free smooth hair.&#8221; You can choose to wash your hair beforehand, if you prefer, or wait until after the treatment.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_20-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> What to Expect During a Cezanne Keratin Treatment <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_21-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Expect to be in your stylist&#8217;s chair for approximately three hours.\u00a0It could be shorter or longer depending on your hair thickness, length, and texture,&#8221; says St. Jean. &#8220;During this time, the treatment will be applied to your hair, and then it will be left to process, rinsed, blow-dried, and flat ironed.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_23-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> After the treatment is applied and blow-dried, a flat iron is used to seal the keratin. If I wanted to go really straight and sleek, Whittier could pass over my\u00a0strands several times with the flat iron and use more heat. But I love my waves, so I requested that we maintain as much of my natural bend as possible while eliminating all frizz and\u00a0dryness.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_25-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> My treatment took\u00a0less than two hours from start to finish\u2014barely a blip compared to the time I&#8217;m used to spending at the salon. I walked out with hair that was stick-straight but oh-so-smooth. Whittier promised that as soon as I washed my hair\u2014which I was\u00a0allowed to do immediately\u2014it would air-dry to a softer, smoother version of my original texture. Impatient, I dunked my head in the sink when I got home. Shocked\u2014and overjoyed\u2014I marveled as my waves reappeared bouncier, softer, and shinier than ever before.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_27-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> What&#8217;s the Difference Between Cezanne and a Regular Keratin Treatment? <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_28-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>These two types of treatments are extremely similar regarding results, with the Cezanne option being a bit healthier for you and your hair over time.<\/strong> &#8220;I have found amazing results from Cezanne. The quality of smoothing received has been extremely comparable to any other keratin smoothing treatment I&#8217;ve used, but has the benefit of a more natural ingredients list than others,&#8221; says St. Jean.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_30-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Potential Side Effects <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_31-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Side effects of a Cezanne treatment are minimal to non-existent. You can wash your hair, swim, etc., right away, and the treatment won&#8217;t weaken the hair follicle over time the way similar options might. However, keep in mind that &#8220;if you seek a ton of volume, this may not be the service for you,&#8221; notes St. Jean. &#8220;With the smoothness it produces, your hair will inevitably lose volume.\u00a0This service does need to be completed every two to three months to maintain the desired look, so there is a little bit of maintenance you need to prepare for.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_33-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Cost <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_34-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> At M\u00e8che, smoothing treatments will run you $450. At Savannah Rae Beauty, they start at $250 and go up from there. Price will vary depending on your hair, location, and how high-end the salon you attend happens to be, but Cezanne treatments and regular keratin treatments should cost about the same.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_36-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Final Takeaway <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_37-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> My main priority with the natural treatment was to repair my breakage from bleach and eliminate my frizz. To be transparent, my texture lost some of its bend, especially in the weeks following the treatment. My 2B waves fell into a more tousled 2A structure. But\u00a0it still looked like\u00a0<em>my<\/em> hair, and the wash-and-go ease of it all made the treatment completely worthwhile.\u00a0After around two months (Cezanne can last up to four),\u00a0my original\u00a0texture slowly started to return, while the frizz that typically accompanies it stayed far away.

This perspective, however, changed during a visit to\u00a0M\u00e8che Salon\u00a0in Los Angeles, when color expert\u00a0Matt Rez\u00a0recommended a\u00a0natural keratin treatment\u00a0called\u00a0Cezanne.

Cezanne treatments give you the benefits of typical keratin treatments without the drawbacks.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> While safety should be the top priority, efficacy is important too. Whittier says that Cezanne is the first of its kind to deliver the five-star, frizz-free results her clients are seeking. &#8220;Formaldehyde treatments are done by pushing the keratin into the cuticle with heat, and the formaldehyde acts as its finishing product,&#8221; she says. &#8220;It gives the illusion of shine, but over time, the hair becomes dry because it&#8217;s too harsh on the hair, especially fragile hair.\u00a0Cezanne uses lemon and crab apple extracts to gently open the hair&#8217;s cuticle, allowing the keratin to enter the cortex.&#8221;\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Benefits of Cezanne Keratin Hair Treatment <\/span><\/h2>\n<ul id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<li>Formaldehyde-free<\/li>\n<li>Non-drying<\/li>\n<li>Customizable depending on desired results<\/li>\n<li>Can wash hair immediately post-treatment<\/li>\n<li>Natural ingredients<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_15-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Cezanne treatments &#8220;restore bonds that are broken from thermal services, but using a low pH, and is comprised of natural healing ingredients such as aloe vera, Vitamin C, E, B3, B5, and B6, and lemon, apple, and green tea extracts,&#8221; says hair and beauty expert Savannah St. Jean.

Cezanne treatments give you the benefits of typical keratin treatments without the drawbacks.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> While safety should be the top priority, efficacy is important too. Whittier says that Cezanne is the first of its kind to deliver the five-star, frizz-free results her clients are seeking. &#8220;Formaldehyde treatments are done by pushing the keratin into the cuticle with heat, and the formaldehyde acts as its finishing product,&#8221; she says. &#8220;It gives the illusion of shine, but over time, the hair becomes dry because it&#8217;s too harsh on the hair, especially fragile hair.\u00a0Cezanne uses lemon and crab apple extracts to gently open the hair&#8217;s cuticle, allowing the keratin to enter the cortex.&#8221;\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Benefits of Cezanne Keratin Hair Treatment <\/span><\/h2>\n<ul id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<li>Formaldehyde-free<\/li>\n<li>Non-drying<\/li>\n<li>Customizable depending on desired results<\/li>\n<li>Can wash hair immediately post-treatment<\/li>\n<li>Natural ingredients<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_15-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Cezanne treatments &#8220;restore bonds that are broken from thermal services, but using a low pH, and is comprised of natural healing ingredients such as aloe vera, Vitamin C, E, B3, B5, and B6, and lemon, apple, and green tea extracts,&#8221; says hair and beauty expert Savannah St. Jean.

The next time my new, soft, healthy hair and I were back in Rez&#8217;s chair, he said, &#8220;This was such a good\u00a0decision for you.&#8221; I\u00a0couldn&#8217;t agree more.\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_39-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-faq--expanded beauty-sc-block-faq mntl-sc-block-faq mntl-block is-expanded\">\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-faq__title_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-faq__title mntl-text-block\">FAQ<\/div>\n<ul id=\"mntl-sc-block-faq__content_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-faq__content mntl-accordion \" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<li class=\"accordion__item js-accordion-item is-active\" data-ordinal=\"1\">\n<div class=\"accordion__header js-accordion-trigger\" id=\"mntl-accordion__item_1-0-section-0\"><span class=\"accordion__title\">Will Cezanne make my hair flat?<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"accordion__body\">\n<div id=\"mntl-accordion__content_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"faq-accordion__item-answer\">\n<p>According to St. Jean, yes, your hair may become flat after the treatment because its aim is to create smoothness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"accordion__item js-accordion-item is-active\" data-ordinal=\"2\">\n<div class=\"accordion__header js-accordion-trigger\" id=\"mntl-accordion__item_2-0-section-1\"><span class=\"accordion__title\">Does the Cezanne keratin treatment have formaldehyde?<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"accordion__body\">\n<div id=\"mntl-accordion__content_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"faq-accordion__item-answer\">\n<p>Cezanne does not have formaldehyde, which is why it is a healthier alternative to a keratin treatment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"accordion__item js-accordion-item is-active\" data-ordinal=\"3\">\n<div class=\"accordion__header js-accordion-trigger\" id=\"mntl-accordion__item_3-0-section-2\"><span class=\"accordion__title\">How long does a Cezanne keratin treatment last?<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"accordion__body\">\n<div id=\"mntl-accordion__content_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-accordion__content\">\n<div class=\"faq-accordion__item-answer\">\n<p>A Cezanne treatment lasts two to four months.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"citation-sources_1-0\" class=\"comp citation-sources mntl-article-sources mntl-expandable-block u-article-styles\" data-scroll-offset=\"70\">\n<div class=\"loc toggle-content\">\n<div id=\"mntl-article-sources__wrapper_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-article-sources__wrapper mntl-block\" data-click-tracked=\"true\"><span id=\"mntl-article-sources__heading_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-article-sources__heading mntl-text-block\">Article Sources<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"loc expandable-content\">\n<div id=\"citation-sources__text_1-0\" class=\"comp citation-sources__text mntl-text-block\">Byrdie takes every opportunity to use high-quality sources, including peer-reviewed studies, to support the facts within our articles.

I was adamant about preserving my hair&#8217;s texture and avoiding chemical\u00a0straightening treatments\u00a0at all costs. This perspective, however, changed during a visit to\u00a0M\u00e8che Salon\u00a0in Los Angeles, when color expert\u00a0Matt Rez\u00a0recommended a\u00a0natural keratin treatment\u00a0called\u00a0Cezanne. During our chat, Rez assured me that this treatment would help me maintain my cherished natural waves while calming the frizz, so I decided to give it a try.<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_4-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> I also enlisted the help of two hair experts to help better explain the process. <strong>Keep scrolling to learn more abut the Cezanne keratin treatment and how it works.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_6-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-callout--meetourexpert beauty-sc-block-callout mntl-sc-block-callout mntl-block theme-meetourexpert\" data-tracking-id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-heading_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-heading mntl-text-block\">Meet the Experts<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-body_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-body mntl-text-block\">\n<ul>\n<li>Tania Whittier is a colorist at M\u00e8che\u00a0salon in Los Angeles.<\/li>\n<li>Savannah St. Jean is a beauty expert with over 18 years of experience.

Cezanne treatments give you the benefits of typical keratin treatments without the drawbacks.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> While safety should be the top priority, efficacy is important too. Whittier says that Cezanne is the first of its kind to deliver the five-star, frizz-free results her clients are seeking. &#8220;Formaldehyde treatments are done by pushing the keratin into the cuticle with heat, and the formaldehyde acts as its finishing product,&#8221; she says. &#8220;It gives the illusion of shine, but over time, the hair becomes dry because it&#8217;s too harsh on the hair, especially fragile hair.\u00a0Cezanne uses lemon and crab apple extracts to gently open the hair&#8217;s cuticle, allowing the keratin to enter the cortex.&#8221;\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Benefits of Cezanne Keratin Hair Treatment <\/span><\/h2>\n<ul id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<li>Formaldehyde-free<\/li>\n<li>Non-drying<\/li>\n<li>Customizable depending on desired results<\/li>\n<li>Can wash hair immediately post-treatment<\/li>\n<li>Natural ingredients<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_15-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Cezanne treatments &#8220;restore bonds that are broken from thermal services, but using a low pH, and is comprised of natural healing ingredients such as aloe vera, Vitamin C, E, B3, B5, and B6, and lemon, apple, and green tea extracts,&#8221; says hair and beauty expert Savannah St. Jean. The other thing that makes Cezanne unique, and the factor that ultimately convinced me to take the plunge, is that it&#8217;s truly customizable to a targeted texture.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_17-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> How to Prepare for Cezanne Keratin Treatment <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;The beauty of this treatment is that no preparation is needed,&#8221; says St. Jean. &#8220;Simply show up to your scheduled appointment with your trained Cezanne Hair Treatment Stylist, and be prepared to walk out with maintenance-free smooth hair.&#8221; You can choose to wash your hair beforehand, if you prefer, or wait until after the treatment.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_20-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> What to Expect During a Cezanne Keratin Treatment <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_21-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Expect to be in your stylist&#8217;s chair for approximately three hours.\u00a0It could be shorter or longer depending on your hair thickness, length, and texture,&#8221; says St. Jean. &#8220;During this time, the treatment will be applied to your hair, and then it will be left to process, rinsed, blow-dried, and flat ironed.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_23-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> After the treatment is applied and blow-dried, a flat iron is used to seal the keratin. If I wanted to go really straight and sleek, Whittier could pass over my\u00a0strands several times with the flat iron and use more heat. But I love my waves, so I requested that we maintain as much of my natural bend as possible while eliminating all frizz and\u00a0dryness.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_25-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> My treatment took\u00a0less than two hours from start to finish\u2014barely a blip compared to the time I&#8217;m used to spending at the salon. I walked out with hair that was stick-straight but oh-so-smooth. Whittier promised that as soon as I washed my hair\u2014which I was\u00a0allowed to do immediately\u2014it would air-dry to a softer, smoother version of my original texture. Impatient, I dunked my head in the sink when I got home. Shocked\u2014and overjoyed\u2014I marveled as my waves reappeared bouncier, softer, and shinier than ever before.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_27-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> What&#8217;s the Difference Between Cezanne and a Regular Keratin Treatment? <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_28-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>These two types of treatments are extremely similar regarding results, with the Cezanne option being a bit healthier for you and your hair over time.<\/strong> &#8220;I have found amazing results from Cezanne. The quality of smoothing received has been extremely comparable to any other keratin smoothing treatment I&#8217;ve used, but has the benefit of a more natural ingredients list than others,&#8221; says St. Jean.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_30-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Potential Side Effects <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_31-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Side effects of a Cezanne treatment are minimal to non-existent. You can wash your hair, swim, etc., right away, and the treatment won&#8217;t weaken the hair follicle over time the way similar options might. However, keep in mind that &#8220;if you seek a ton of volume, this may not be the service for you,&#8221; notes St. Jean. &#8220;With the smoothness it produces, your hair will inevitably lose volume.\u00a0This service does need to be completed every two to three months to maintain the desired look, so there is a little bit of maintenance you need to prepare for.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_33-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Cost <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_34-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> At M\u00e8che, smoothing treatments will run you $450. At Savannah Rae Beauty, they start at $250 and go up from there. Price will vary depending on your hair, location, and how high-end the salon you attend happens to be, but Cezanne treatments and regular keratin treatments should cost about the same.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_36-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Final Takeaway <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_37-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> My main priority with the natural treatment was to repair my breakage from bleach and eliminate my frizz. To be transparent, my texture lost some of its bend, especially in the weeks following the treatment. My 2B waves fell into a more tousled 2A structure.
