Smoothing, Straightening or Texture — What’s Right for You?

Three professional services. Each designed for a different goal. Our team can help you determine which is most appropriate for your hair.

Keratin Smoothing Treatment

A professional smoothing service designed to reduce frizz, improve manageability and create smoother, shinier-looking hair while maintaining natural movement.

Best suited for clients who want smoother, more manageable hair without permanent straightening.

Japanese Permanent Hair Straightening

A permanent straightening service designed to transform suitable curly, wavy or frizz-prone hair into a permanently straighter texture in the treated areas.

New growth will retain the client’s natural texture. A consultation is recommended to evaluate hair history and suitability.

Perm

A professional texture service designed to create curls, waves, movement and body according to the desired result and suitability of the hair.

Frizz Reduction & Smoothness

Keratin Smoothing Treatment in Ottawa

Keratin smoothing is designed primarily for clients seeking:

  • Reduced frizz
  • Improved manageability
  • Smoother appearance
  • More polished styling
  • Reduced styling effort

Keratin smoothing is not the same as permanent Japanese straightening. It works to smooth and manage the hair while maintaining natural movement — results and duration vary depending on hair type and individual factors.


Permanent Straightening

Japanese Permanent Hair Straightening in Ottawa

Japanese permanent hair straightening is different from keratin smoothing. It permanently changes the texture of the hair that has been treated. As natural hair grows, the new growth retains its original texture.

Suitability depends on a number of individual factors, including:

  • Hair condition
  • Previous chemical services
  • Colour history
  • Hair texture
  • Desired result

A consultation may be required before the service to assess whether Japanese permanent straightening is appropriate for your hair.

Personalized Guidance

Start With the Right Treatment for Your Hair

Hair history matters when choosing a chemical texture service. Previous colour, lightening, chemical treatments, hair condition and your desired result can affect which service is most appropriate. Our team can help determine whether smoothing, permanent straightening or a perm is suitable for your hair.

Home Care

Caring for Your Hair After Your Service

Aftercare varies according to the service and individual hair needs. Following your stylist’s recommendations helps maintain the appearance and condition of your hair between appointments.

Our team can recommend professional Davines home care products suited to your service and hair type to help you maintain your result.

Smoothing, Straightening & Perm FAQs

What’s the difference between Keratin Smoothing and Japanese Straightening?
Keratin smoothing focuses on reducing frizz and improving manageability while maintaining the hair’s natural movement. Japanese permanent straightening permanently changes the texture of the treated hair to a straighter result. New growth retains the client’s natural texture.
Is Japanese Hair Straightening permanent?
The treated portion of suitable hair remains permanently altered. As new hair grows, it comes in with the client’s natural texture. Touch-up appointments address the new growth over time.
Will Keratin make my hair completely straight?
The primary purpose of keratin smoothing is frizz reduction and improved manageability. Final results vary depending on hair type, texture and the specific treatment. It is not a permanent straightening service.
Can I get these treatments on coloured hair?
Suitability depends on the specific service, your colour history and the current condition of your hair. A consultation may be recommended to assess whether a service is appropriate for your hair.
How much do these services cost?
Current pricing for smoothing, straightening and perm services is available on our Hair Salon Services & Prices page. View Smoothing & Texture Prices →
