The Brazilian Keratin Hair treatment QOD MAX is the latest innovation in Brazillian hair smoothing technology. This is a 100% all-natural and organic treatment that is free from formaldehyde and aldehydes. These substances are commonly found in most hair treatment products and are now known to increase the risk of cancer.

The Brazilian Keratin Hair treatment QOD MAX is derived from cocoa extracts and comes with a chocolate fragrance, which is great for giving you a wake up boost in the morning. It’s main ingredients include aqua, cetearyl alcohol, and glycerin. Other ingredients include amino acids, oils, and proteins that fortify the hair strands. Nano-technology changes the larger spheres of molecules into microspheres so that the product can penetrate the hair strands better. This results in great looking hair that moves naturally, with a gloss and volume that you will not find in other products. It is 100% natural, doesn’t cause allergies.

One of the best things about this product is that it gives a consistent result each time. The effects also last longer compared to other products. This means users get up to 11 weeks of great looking, shiny, frizz free and full-bodied hair for just 4 hours of treatment.

Another great advantage is the cost. Users can have up to six treatments in one bottle, which is less expensive than if they had keratin treatments done in the salon. Most users also love how the treatment can be washed in the same day. Other treatments usually require you to leave the product on for three days, or at the least, to avoid shampooing the hair for two days. With the Brazilian Keratin Hair treatment QOD MAX, you can shower on the same day as when you got the treatment.

Some users expressed their disappointment over the sub-par performance of the MAX compared to another OrganiQ product, the QOD Gold. People with curly hair may have a bit of difficulty achieving perfectly straight hair. At best, the frizz is reduced, the but curls may remain. Some also complain about how heavy the product feels when left on their hair for more than 15 minutes. This gives you smooth and straight hair for a fraction of the cost of a salon keratin treatment.

With its all-natural ingredients, Brazilian Keratin Hair treatment QOD MAX offers you  natural-looking results without the risk of allergies or other complications. The product is also very easy to use, perfect for those who are doing keratin treatments at home for the first time.

What is a Brazilian Keratin treatment? Well, it is one of the Brazilian hair smoothing treatments, which are quite effective in making your hair healthy, straight, and manageable. As the name would suggest, it uses Keratin that is a naturally occurring protein in hair. Our hair can look frizzy and lifeless when the outer keratin layer is damaged. This treatment involves replenishing the keratin layer at the level of the cuticle, without the use of harsh chemicals.

What does the Treatment Involve?

The actual treatment is quite straightforward, but sometimes the method might vary a little. Usually the treatment involves three or four basic steps. First, the hair is washed with a clarifying type of shampoo. Then the keratin treatment is applied, and any excess is rinsed out. Lastly, the treatment is “sealed” by using a heated flat iron, which also helps in straightening out the hair. The duration of this process will depend on the thickness and length of the individual’s hair, and could take anything between sixty to ninety minutes. Instead of going to a stylist, you could buy Brazilian keratin treatment kit, and do it yourself at home.

Immediately after the treatment, you are supposed to leave your hair loose, without binding them in any way, for about a couple of days. You are also not supposed to wash your hair during these two days, or go for a swim in chlorinated water for about a week. One should also remember that the great effects of this treatment are not permanent. The keratin solution is water-soluble and will eventually wear out leaving your hair in it’s former condition. However, on an average this treatment lasts for two to three months, and needs to be repeated after that to maintain the smoothness and shine of the hair.

Pros and Cons

The obvious advantage of this treatment is the immediate improvement of the health of your hair. Frizz is eliminated, and the hair feels silky, gaining a shiny luster. The treatment is suitable for any type of hair, and can be done on colored hair as well. The main ingredient used in the treatment is the natural substance keratin, which also acts as a moisturizer.

The treatment does have a few disadvantages as well. As it is not a permanent cure, it could work out a bit expensive for doing and maintaining the treatment. The treatment is also not recommended for nursing or pregnant women.

Weighing the pros and cons it is obvious that the advantages of Brazilian keratin treatment outweigh the disadvantages in a big way. So, if you want to dramatically improve the health of your hair and make them manageable this is the ideal treatment.
