What is Japanese Straightening?
Japanese Straightening, also called thermal reconditioning, is a chemical process that uses heat to change the structure of the hair's protein bond. This treatment is ideal for individuals with frizzy, curly, or wavy hair who want to achieve permanent straightness while also improving the hair's texture, softness, and shine, making it easier to manage.
Liscio Japanese Straightening is an innovative treatment that permanently transforms unruly, frizzy, and curly hair into soft, silky, and manageable locks with a stunning shine. With this versatile system, the amount of curl can be customized according to preference, ranging from pin-straight to maintaining just the right amount of curl or wave, while also eliminating bulkiness and frizz.
How does Japanese Permanent straightening work?
Japanese permanent straightening works by breaking down the bonds in your hair and then reforming them in a straight pattern. The process involves several steps:
The thio-based solution is customized to your hair texture is applied to your hair to break down the bonds.
Your hair is then rinsed and dried.
A straightening iron is used to straighten your hair.
A neutralizing solution is applied to your hair to reform the bonds in a straight pattern.
Your hair is then rinsed and dried again.
The entire process takes several hours, depending on the length and thickness of your hair.
What are the benefits of Japanese permanent straightening?
Japanese permanent straightening provides several benefits, including:
Long-lasting results: Japanese permanent straightening can provide straight hair for six to eight months.
Low maintenance: You don't have to spend a lot of time styling your hair after the treatment.
Improved hair health: Japanese permanent straightening can improve the health of your hair by reducing the need for heat styling tools.
Versatility: Japanese permanent straightening can be used on all hair types.
Natural-looking results: Japanese permanent straightening provides natural-looking results that are not too flat or too stiff.
Does Japanese straightening make hair pin straight?
The outcome of your hair after the Liscio thermal reconditioning treatment does not always result in pin-straight hair. The process can be tailored to your preference and hair type. We have the flexibility to adjust the amount of curl control you desire, whether it's relaxing excessive curl while maintaining fullness and body or making it permanently straight. It all depends on what you would like to achieve with your hair.
Is Japanese straightening damaging?
To ensure the best results from your thermal reconditioning service, it's vital to have a certified, experienced technician performing the treatment. Scott Risk is a Milbon Liscio certified expert with over 16 years of experience and has performed hundreds of Japanese straightening services. Equally important is using a superior product, and Liscio is recognized as the best thermal reconditioning product worldwide. However, we require a consultation prior to the service to determine whether your hair is suitable for thermal reconditioning, as clients with excessively damaged hair may not be good candidates for the treatment. We may also recommend a Milbon deep conditioning treatment before or after your service to ensure optimal results. Follow-up conditioning treatments are highly recommended for all thermal reconditioning clients to maintain the overall health and shine of their hair.
How long does Japanese thermal straightening last?
After undergoing thermal reconditioning, the hair will remain straight or relaxed until it grows out or is trimmed. Typically, root touch-ups are necessary every 4-8 months, although sometimes they may be required less frequently.
What is the difference between Japanese Straightening and keratin treatment?
The Brazilian Blowout, keratin treatments, and Japanese straightening can all give you smooth, manageable, and frizz-free hair. However, they work in different ways and offer varying results.
Japanese straightening is ideal for hair textures that Brazilian Blowout & keratin smoothing treatments are ineffective. It is a life changing hair treatment for individuals with hair textures that require significant time to straighten their hair in order for it to look good.
Keratin treatment involves applying a keratin-based product to the hair, which is then sealed in using a flat iron. This treatment can help to reduce frizz, tame curls, and leave the hair looking smooth and shiny. The results of a keratin treatment can last for around 3-4 months and gradually fade away.
On the other hand, Japanese straightening is a chemical process that involves restructuring the hair's protein bonds using heat and a thio-based solution. This treatment is a more involved process than a keratin treatment and requires an experienced stylist to ensure it's done correctly. The results of a Japanese straightening treatment can last for 4-8 months and root touch-ups are needed as the hair grows out.
In summary, keratin treatment is a great option if you want to reduce frizz and make your hair more manageable, but don't want to commit to a permanent change. Japanese straightening is ideal if you're looking for a permanent solution to transform your curly or wavy hair into straight locks.
How much does Japanese straightening cost?
Japanese Permanent Straightening starts at $700. Retouch straightening services start at the similar pricing due to the similar length of time required to perform the service, as well as the precision application in order to protect and prevent potential chemical hair damage from overlapping previously straightened hair.

Having received several Japanese Straightening treatments from Scott, over the last two years and my experiences have been nothing less than life changing.
