Best Practices
- “Sophia La Belle NATURAGANIC®” Hair Botox Treatment and Keratin Treatments are superior to other hair treatments available in the market for the following reasons bellow. You can also visit another page on this site called ‘Compare Brands’ to compare the ingredients and benefits.”
- Sophia La Belle Hair Botox Treatment lines and Keratin Treatments get sealed in your hair at the salon, so no 2 to 4 days wait like other treatments. For Maximum results, we recommend washing your hair with Sophia La Belle NATURAGANIC® after-treatment products within 24 hours.
NOTE: Ask your stylist for more information.
- Our treatments can be done on all types of hair, including frizzy, or even damaged hair, previously chemically treated including color and highlight services, or relaxed hair, sodium Hydroxide Thio Chemical, Japanese Straightening treated hair (But only after 2 weeks! Please call for a free consultation) It can be done on straight, wavy, curly (2A, 2B, 2C, 3A, 3B), frizzy. NOTE: End results may vary, including the level of curl reduction varies depending on hair texture, curl pattern, factors such as the client’s lifestyle, consistent use of NATURAGANIC® aftercare products, time of the year, personal diet, and level of activity.
- For best results, we generally recommend that you color/highlight your hair “anytime” before any of the treatments or wait and color/highlight 10 days to 2 weeks after treatments.
- Color, highlights, bleaching, use of other brand aftercare products, swimming in the ocean or pool, heavy sweating, use of any other aftercare products than NATURAGANIC® aftercare products do shorten or eliminate the life of Sophia La Belle Keratin or Hair Botox treatments. Please consult your Sophia La Belle stylist/advisor by calling.
- Color services and Hair Botox Treatment can be done on the same day. The color process is done before the treatment.
- NATURAGANIC® Hair Botox lines are not a Brazilian Keratin Treatment, but they have all the attributes of our Keratin Treatments. It’s almost like getting two treatments in one when you get Hair Botox done. With the revolutionary NATURAGANIC® Hair Botox, you receive all the benefits of our Keratin Treatments, as well as anti-aging, repairing, rejuvenating, and reviving your hair that has been damaged by heat, chemicals, color/highlight services, dryness, etc. You can get your hair back to a healthy level as much as possible, which no other brand or product in the world can do!
- Unlike hundreds of other treatments out in the market, only with our superior product lines you can tie or wear your hair in a ponytail; you can pin it back or wear it behind the ears immediately after getting the treatment done. You can even go to the gym, do outdoor exercises, or go to the pool/beach right after NATURAGANIC ® treatments. Unlike other Keratin Treatment or Hair Botox brands there are no limitations with our products, BUT the use of Sophia La Belle NATURAGANIC® aftercare products is highly recommended for maximum results. Use our shampoo, conditioner, and spray leave-in condition right after showering due to sweating, which contains sodium chloride, which will affect the Keratin protein molecules. NOTE: If you do get any creases, that’s no problem; just flatiron.
- NATURAGANIC® Hair Botox or Keratin Treatment is a progressive hair treatment that “reduces” curls and waves, offering many benefits without harsh chemicals and without damaging the hair! Since treatments are temporary clients should plan to have treatments performed every 3 to 5 months, depending on their lifestyle and hair texture, to maintain ongoing improvement and waves and curls reduction. This is known as a “progressive improvement system,” meaning that the more treatments you have over time, the straighter, softer, smoother, healthier, and more manageable your hair becomes naturally without the use of harsh chemicals. Your hair will be blow-dried and flat-ironed to seal the Hair Botox or Keratin Treatment into your hair before you leave the salon. Clients with lots of curls or strong wavy hair can expect their hair to be less curly/wavy after a shower. (Clients with a slight wave in their hair can expect straighter hair). It’s important to note that if you have heavy waves or curls, your hair will not be permanently straightened. Clients with curly or wavy hair are “required” to blow-dry and flat-iron their hair after every shower if they want it to be straight, like when they left the salon. The treatment is embedded in your hair to stay straight when heat and direction are applied by blow-dry and flat ironing, allowing it to stay straight without being affected by humidity. However, if you prefer the natural and reduced wave/curl look of your hair after a shower, you won’t be required to blow dry or flat iron it.
The good news is that you can anticipate even more reduction in waves and curls each time you have the treatment performed. For these reasons, our treatments are extremely effective and great for maintaining and growing healthier hair with natural wave/curl reduction versus a quick and dirty fix approach by permanently damaging chemical services such as Japanese straightening, relaxers, or perms instead.
- As a company policy our stylists/advisors cannot push or force clients to buy any Sophia La Belle aftercare products, BUT as company representatives, we are responsible and required to explain at least once the use, and benefits of the aftercare before clients leave our salons. 92% of our clients purchase aftercare products, and obviously, products are needed. Treatments would only last with the use of our aftercare, but the final decision is our client’s responsibility.
- Over-counter and other brand sulfate and sodium-free products WILL NOT offer the same results as our SLS-Free aftercare! We strongly recommend “Sophia La Belle after-treatment products”. They are designed by our chemists in our factory and lab to work with the Sophia La Belle brand of Hair Botox and Brazilian Keratin treatments for appearance and longer treatment life. They are all color-protective and have UV protection ingredients. They are also low in pH to keep the hair cuticle closed long after the service, so treatments would last long and look great.
- Please remember that average hair grows about 1 inch per month away from the scalp, and obviously new-grown hair does NOT have the treatment. So, it is normal to see waves, curls, and frizz on the new growth hair and not the pre-existing hair shaft that has been treated. Depending on hair texture, lifestyle, and speed of growth it is recommended that you do your treatment often and not wait till it completely fades out.
Our treatments are NOT permanent so for some clients it may be every 2 months, for others maybe every 4-5 months but our statistics show on average every three and half months would be a good time to redue the treatments from roots to the end of the hair.
There are no “retouching” services! Ask your stylist for more information and recommendations based on your hair texture, lifestyle, and the level of your treatment performed as to when to be back for your next treatment.
- Hair Botox treatment designed and ideal to be performed on highlighted/colored hair, or immediately right after highlight/color service without any waiting period.
- Avoid any other brand hair products such as Hair Sprays, Gels, or Mousse containing Alcohol, Sulfate or sodium Chloride.
- If you get ridges in your hair in the morning because of sleeping on your hair, use either a blow drier or a flatiron to straighten those sections, although flat-ironing the whole hair during the first 24 hours helps to seal the treatments well in the hair.
- We do offer Formaldehyde FREE Keratin, and Hair Botox treatment for health-conscious, and pregnant clients. Pregnant clients are responsible for mentioning over the phone, and before the appointment setup about their condition as we are not responsible. A doctor’s note and permission are required for pregnant clients.
- We do offer very low 2.9% Formaldehyde Keratin Treatment and 3.9% Formaldehyde Hair Botox Treatments, BUT we highly recommend that pregnant/breastfeeding clients get permission from their doctors first before having any Keratin or Hair Botox service done with us as we are not responsible.
- Treatments can be done for women, men, and kids. The minimum age for the treatment is 10 years or up. You can get your hair trim or haircut before or after treatment.
- Although Sophia La Belle Keratin or Hair Botox lasts 2.5 to 5 months. If needed, our Treatments can be done on a monthly basis or every 2 months because of the new growth. NOTE: Longevity varies depending on the level of treatment, texture of the hair, your active lifestyle, time of the year, hair density, current condition past history of the hair, and consistent use of ONLY Sophia La Belle after-treatment products.
- Sophia La Belle Keratin and Hair Botox treatment do NOT grow more hair on your scalp, or make you lose any hair, break off, or damage your hair or scalp. They are like conditioners with vitamins, minerals, oils, and other ingredients that get rid of frizz, make the hair silky, and shiny, soften the curls, make the hair stronger, and healthier, tick, rejuvenate, and revive the damaged hair, etc., and due to the fact that some of our treatments are anti-aging overall improves and makes hair better than existing condition.
Please call for free consultation, and questions and to set up an appointment.
- Sophia La Belle is the original developer and manufacturer of NATURAGANIC Hair Botox Original Treatment (Since the year 2010), and overall, it happens to last longer than any other Keratin or Hair Botox Treatment out in the market as well as to have the most benefits, vitamins, minerals, and oil to repair, rejuvenate, revive damaged hair. Our treatments have either none or very little Formaldehyde in some treatments, eliminate frizz, minimize greatly, or soften the curl pattern anywhere from 20% to 70% (Depending on the type of treatment and level of product and your hair texture) and in case of wavy or fine hair up to 100%. Consult your stylist/advisor over the phone to find out the correct type and level of treatment before you set up an appointment, that you get to keep a nice, healthy, manageable, and beautiful body in hair, protect or repair, and recondition damaged hair and bring back to a healthy level.
- We do not offer any products that will make your hair stick flat to your head for 6-8 months straight out of the shower. These types of treatments, like relaxers or strong chemical services, are damaging to the hair. They can make the hair porous, dry, and prone to breakage. Other salons may offer so-called Keratin treatments, which can cause obvious damage to the hair and result in breakage and hair fallout. It’s important to be cautious about where you get your treatments and what products are used on your hair. Our treatments are different from those offered by other salons and brands. Our Keratin treatments and Hair Botox treatments are progressive improvements. The more treatments you do, the softer and more manageable your hair becomes over time, without the use of harsh chemicals. There’s no need for retouch applications, and our treatments act as a kind of nourishment for your hair, getting sealed into the hair more and more each time and becoming part of your hair. This means the treatments will be done from roots to ends each time.
