Design Essentials STS

Design Essentials STS- Smoothing treatment to help lengthen the time your silk press lasts, add shine, and combat humidity; reduces the amount of heat needed to style at home; lasts about 6-8 weeks (your hair will still shrink and curl, but with better texture management)

Shampoo and Treatment with full line of STS products

Trim

Keratin Complex

Smoothing treatment reduces the curl, reinforces the hair’s structure, blocks humidity, and reduces frizz while leaving the hair shiny; reduces the amount of heat needed to style at home. This is a more extensive treatment process and lasts up to 5 months. Your curls will stretch and the pattern will change but should revert after 5 months

Shampoo and Treatment with NKST Keratin Complex (this treatment requires several passes with the flatiron)

Preparing for your service:

-Arrive at your appointment with your natural hair free of heavy product and oils. If you have just removed braids, make sure your hair has been combed out/detangled and you are prepped for a shampoo service.

-If you have just removed a ponytail where wax was used, your will incur a surcharge for extra time to remove the product. Note: I will likely use Dawn detergent to remove wax products and it will take 3-4 shampoos
