Keratin vs. Brazilian Blowout Treatments, Which One Should You Do?
Brazilian Beauty is here to help you achieve the hair you want, need, and feel the most confident in! Continue reading to see what the differences are between a Keratin Treatment and a Brazilian Blowout Treatment.
Introduction
When it comes to smoothing treatments, the discussion on Keratin Treatment vs. Brazilian Blowout is one of the most asked about topics in the hair world. If you’ve been considering one of these treatments to tame frizz, smooth your strands, or cut down on styling time, you’re in the right place.
While both treatments are designed to give you sleek, manageable hair, knowing the differences can help you choose the best option for your hair goals and lifestyle.
Keratin vs. Brazilian Treatment - What's the Difference?
What is a Keratin Treatment?
A Keratin treatment is a semi-permanent smoothing treatment that infuses hair with a protective protein (Keratin) to eliminate frizz and enhance shine. It works by sealing the hair cuticle with a keratin-based formula and then using heat to lock in the results.
Key Benefits:
Reduces frizz and adds shine
Cuts blow dry time in half
Results last up to 3 months
Works the best on curly and wavy hair
Slightly softens curl pattern
Things to Consider:
After a Keratin Treatment you typically have to wait to wash your hair for 24+ hours
Always get your highlights or hair color done BEFORE you get a Keratin Treatment. Keratin repairs the cuticles in hair so you want to have your color completed before so it locks everything in place.
Ideal Hair Type: Hair that is frizzy in humidity but isn't super super kinky/curly when natural. Keratin smoothes wavy hair for that sleek shine while maintaining volume.
Desired Result: If you’re looking for a hair treatment to smooth frizz and maintain curls while keeping more of your hair’s natural body, Keratin is the best treatment for you!


What is a Brazilian Blowout Treatment?
A Brazilian Blowout is a smoothing service known for delivering sleek results while compressing uncontrollable volume. The Brazilian Blowout is the strongest hair treatment and is designed for those with unruly curls and uncontrollable frizz.
Key Benefits:
Smooths and eliminates frizz while reducing volume
Gives a straight and sleek look to all hair
Results last up to 3 months
Ideal for humid climates and uncontrollable hair types
Things to Consider:
After a Brazilian Blowout treatment, you typically have to wait 24 hours to wash your hair
Your hair will become sleek and straight every day, no natural body until the treatment wears off
Easy way to make sure your hair looks good after every wash!
Ideal Hair Type: Uncontrollable curly and frizzy hair that takes hours to maintain. Hair that is overly volumized and immediately gets curly when wet.
Desired Result: If you're looking to reduce volume and temporarily eliminate your natural curls, a Brazilian Blowout treatment is for you.
