What are the differences between Japanese straightening and French straightening?
Japanese straightening is a permanent and irreversible straightening treatment. It is based on a chemical alteration of the structure of the capillary keratin and acts in a similar way to the traditional perm liquid. It requires a very careful application, so it is preferable to trust professionals to apply it since due to its radical action, the slightest mistake causes irreversible damage to the appearance and quality of the hair. Permanent straightening is obtained, but it usually presents a not too natural appearance and without any volume.
However, French straightening is the newest and most avant-garde of straightening treatments and achieves a balance between the quality of the straightening, its duration, the hair treatment itself, and the ease of its application. It does not chemically alter the internal structure of the keratin (as in the case of Japanese straightening), so its duration is not permanent, although it can last up to 6 months. Its form of application is simple but laborious, it can take between 3 and 4 hours, so it is recommended to attend a professional hairdresser. The treatment is not aggressive and the hair also acquires a shine, nutrition, and straightening with immediate effects. The result is a very natural-looking straightening, and it only takes a few minutes of blow-drying after each wash to achieve the desired straight look. The prices of the service in professional hairdressers range from 60 to 180 euros.
