Frizz control, without losing your curl

Keratin Smoothing Treatment in Columbus, OH

Our GK Keratin Smoothing Treatment eliminates frizz and adds shine — it softens curl for easier styling but doesn’t remove your natural pattern

What Is a Keratin Smoothing Treatment?

Our GK Keratin Smoothing Treatment deeply nourishes and strengthens hair for a sleeker, more polished, more manageable result — eliminating frizz and enhancing shine.

An important distinction: this is a smoothing treatment, not a straightening treatment. It softens curls and reduces frizz, but it does not permanently alter or remove your natural curl pattern — a common point of confusion with “keratin treatments” in general.

For the absolute best results, we highly recommend coloring your hair before your Keratin Smoothing Treatment. Here is why this sequence delivers flawless, long-lasting results:

Locks in Your Color: The keratin treatment acts as a protective shield, sealing the hair cuticle. This locks your new hair dye inside, keeping your color vibrant and preventing it from fading prematurely.

Repairs and Restores: Hair color can sometimes leave strands feeling a bit dry. The keratin process infuses vital proteins back into the hair, instantly repairing minor dryness or damage caused by the coloring process.

The Golden Window: To give your color plenty of time to fully settle, we recommend waiting 3 to 7 days after your color service before coming in for your keratin treatment.

Most keratin smoothing treatments require waiting a specific number of days before the first wash.
