Brazilian Straightening Brunette Kit, 12 Weeks of Home Use Professional Straightening, with Organic Coconut Oil, Açai Oil, and Keratin, for Straighter, Softer and Shinier Dark-Coloured Hair

I ordered this Brunette Brazilian Blow Out kit for myself to use on my hair at home. I have color treated naturally curly brown hair. I also have color treated hand tied Remy Cachet extensions as well. I have to use heat and hot tools on my hair daily... The process was relatively easy to do. Everything was straight forward, with the exception of the box not being in English. Thankfully the instructions provided English directions. There are gloves provided, however they're loose and get in the way. I had tighter fitting disposable gloves, so I used those to apply the treatment. Treatment is purple/blue in color. It definitely stains your hands. I used disposable gloves to apply treatment, but when it came time to blow dry my hair it was hard to do with gloves on because they kept getting too hot, so I removed them and while completing steps 4, 5 and 6 my I did not use gloves because I wanted to be able to feel my hair to ensure it was completely dry. The treatment dyed my hands purple/blue, but it washed off in the shower without issue. Step 1: Wash hair twice pre-treatment shampoo, twice. Do NOT condition. Step 2: Dry hair COMPLETELY. Step 3: Apply treatment to DRIED hair, in sections. Leave on for 15 minutes. Step 4: Remove excess. I used a comb and paper towels. Step 5: Blow dry hair COMPLETELY dry. Step 6: Flat iron hair in small 1" sections; going over 8-12 times Step 7: Let hair "cool" completely. Step 8: Rinse hair until all blue/purple is out. Step 9: Shampoo hair with provided After-Treatment Shampoo, twice. Step 10: Condition hair with provided After-Treatment Conditioner, leave on for 3-5 minutes Step 11: Air dry or blow dry hair. PROS: + Super easy to do at home + Super easy to do alone, just yourself + No mixing + Everything is labeled nicely and in English CONS: - Dyed my hands purple/blue - but it comes off! - Time consuming (Took me a total of 4.5 hours - 9am-11:30am on steps 1-7. I let my hair "cool" for two hours before following steps 8-11. I let my hair air dry, because I wanted to see how much of my curl was left, and how frizzy it would dry. - Definitely lightened my hair by at least 3 shades - good thing I did my extensions as well, since I read previous reviews that stated this lightens dyed hair. SMELL: * Pre-treatment Shampoo: Not much of a smell, reminded me of dish detergent * Treatment : Smelled amazing. Reminded me of a candy I used to eat as a kid, but I can't remember what it is. * After-Treatment Shampoo : Smells okay. Strong scent. * After-Treatment Conditioner : Smells okay. Strong scent. SOFTNESS & MANAGABILITY + Hair was not completely pin straight, which is good - I didn't want that. There is some wave to my natural hair, and zero frizz. + Hair is super soft and manageable + Air dry time faster + Cuts blow drying time in half + Used the air wrap attachment for my Dyson blow dryer to create loose waves and body - held all day without hair product. This states that it lasts 12 weeks. I wash my hair 1-2 times a week, depending how many days I'm in the office, so I am hoping that this will last longer than 12 weeks for me, but if not, I would totally do it again But I would make sure to have some toner on hand at home, so I could tone my hair after (which the instructions state it is okay to do the same day) because this changes your dyed hair color exponentially.

📝 English: I tried this Kativa Brazilian straightening kit at home and was pleasantly surprised by the results. The process takes some time, but the instructions are clear and easy to follow. My hair felt much softer, looked shinier, and had significantly less frizz. It doesn’t make very curly hair completely straight like a salon treatment, but it does leave it more manageable with softer waves. I also liked that it’s formaldehyde-free and doesn’t have a strong smell. The results lasted several weeks with proper care.
