What is kerasilk keratin treatment?
Kerasilk Keratin Treatment is a professional, customisable hair smoothing service designed to reduce frizz, improve manageability, and refine the natural shape of the hair.
Powered by Kerasilk KeraShape Technology, the treatment works within the hair structure to support a smoother, more controlled result. The intensity can be adjusted according to your natural texture, condition, and desired finish, from gentle frizz reduction to a more noticeable change in shape.
Unlike permanent chemical straightening, Kerasilk does not create an irreversible result or a rigid line of regrowth. Instead, it gradually softens over time, allowing the hair to retain a more natural appearance as it grows.
For clients seeking smoother hair, greater control in humid conditions, and less effort during daily styling, Kerasilk offers a refined alternative to more permanent straightening services.
The difference is in the detail
Refinement, not restriction
A Kerasilk Keratin Treatment is never defined by the product alone. The quality of the result depends on assessment, formulation, application, and technique.
At A2Salon Melbourne, Kerasilk is not applied as a standard treatment with one predetermined outcome. Every service is tailored to the condition, porosity, density, natural texture, and behaviour of your hair.
In simple terms, we do not make your hair fit the treatment; we adapt the treatment to fit your hair.
Our stylists carefully adjust the strength of the smoothing effect, application method, processing time, and finishing technique. This allows us to reduce frizz and improve control without unnecessarily removing movement, volume, or character.
The result is smoother hair that still feels like your hair, Simply more polished, manageable, and considered.
BOOK YOUR KERATIN TREATMENT CONSULTATION
Kerasilk Keratin Treatment pricing is customised according to your hair length, density, condition, and overall service complexity.
For longer, thicker, or particularly dense hair, an additional handling fee may apply. This allows the appropriate amount of time, product, and technical care to be allocated, ensuring the treatment is never rushed or compromised.
We recommend beginning with a professional consultation at A2Salon Melbourne.
During your consultation, we will assess your natural texture, chemical history, current condition, and desired level of smoothing. We will then explain what Kerasilk can realistically achieve and recommend an approach suited specifically to your hair.
The Transformation
Clients often describe Kerasilk as a noticeable transformation that still feels natural.
You may notice:
reduced frizz and flyaways
smoother, more controlled texture
improved softness and shine
less excess volume or puffiness
greater manageability in humid conditions
easier blow-drying and daily styling
natural movement without excessive stiffness
a more polished finish that lasts between washes
The goal is not necessarily pin-straight hair.
It is hair that behaves more predictably, responds more easily to styling, and maintains a smoother appearance with less daily effort.
The Match
Kerasilk Keratin Treatment is particularly suited to:
frizzy, unruly, or difficult-to-manage hair
wavy or curly hair requiring greater control
coarse, thick, or puffy hair textures
hair affected by humidity and environmental moisture
clients who want to reduce styling time and effort
those seeking a smoother finish without permanent straightening
clients who want to retain some natural movement and body
The treatment can also be adjusted for finer hair when the goal is gentle frizz reduction rather than dramatic flattening or volume removal.
Hair that is severely bleached, fragile, or highly compromised must be assessed carefully before treatment. In some cases, a restorative service may be recommended before or instead of Kerasilk to protect the integrity of the hair.
The Journey
Every Kerasilk Keratin Treatment at A2 Salon Melbourne begins with a considered consultation.
We assess:
Hair condition and history
Natural texture and density
Lifestyle and styling habits
Long-term hair goals
From there, we tailor the treatment strength, application, processing time, and finishing technique to suit your hair precisely.
This approach ensures your result is created with intention, balance, and respect, never assumption.
The Longevity
Kerasilk offers long-lasting smoothing without creating a permanently altered hair structure.
Depending on the chosen treatment intensity and your individual hair, results may remain visible for several months and can last up to approximately five months with appropriate aftercare.
How long your result lasts can depend on:
your natural hair texture
your hair’s condition and porosity
your previous chemical history
how frequently you wash your hair
the products used at home
exposure to swimming, humidity, or environmental stress
your heat-styling habits
The result is designed to soften gradually over time rather than disappear suddenly or leave a rigid line of regrowth.
Our stylists will recommend an appropriate home-care routine to help preserve smoothness, softness, and shine while supporting the ongoing condition of your hair.
Ultrasonic Precision. Elevated Results.
At A2 Salon Melbourne, luxury is expressed through precision.
Our Kerasilk service is enhanced with advanced CarePro Professional technology and an Ultrasonic Hair Treatment Infuser, designed to support more even treatment distribution and a refined finish while respecting the integrity of the hair.
-
Using controlled ultrasonic frequency, the system helps improve the absorption of treatment ingredients, allowing active elements to disperse more evenly through the hair.
-
Gentle light-assisted warmth supports the repair process and helps improve the fixation of treatment ingredients, contributing to a smoother, more polished finish.
Your inquiries, Answered
-
No. Permanent straightening chemically and permanently alters the treated section of the hair.
Kerasilk is a long-lasting but non-permanent smoothing service. It can reduce frizz, volume, waves, or curl depending on the chosen treatment intensity, but the result gradually softens over time.
-
That depends on your natural hair and the result selected during your consultation.
Kerasilk can be customised from natural-looking frizz control to a more noticeable change in shape. Not every client requires or wants completely straight hair, so the treatment is adjusted around your preferred result.
-
In many cases, yes. Kerasilk can be performed on coloured hair, provided the hair is in a suitable condition.
We will assess your colour history, porosity, elasticity, and overall hair integrity before recommending the treatment.
-
It may be suitable for some highlighted or lightened hair, but heavily bleached or fragile hair requires careful assessment.
Where the hair is highly compromised, we may recommend strengthening or restorative treatments first, or suggest an alternative service that places less stress on the hair.
-
The ideal order can depend on the colour service, the condition of your hair, and the result you want to achieve.
Some colour services may be better performed after Kerasilk, while others may require a different schedule. Our stylists will advise you on the most appropriate timing during your consultation.
-
Both treatments can reduce frizz and improve manageability, but they use different technologies and may create different results.
Kerasilk is a customisable professional smoothing service that can range from gentle frizz control to a more noticeable change in shape. Nanoplasty is often selected by clients seeking smoothing alongside a stronger focus on softness, reconstruction, and a naturally fluid finish.
The most suitable option depends on your texture, condition, chemical history, and desired result.
-
Kerasilk is primarily designed to control frizz and reshape or smooth unruly hair.
Hair Botox is primarily a restorative conditioning treatment used to improve moisture, softness, and the appearance of dry or damaged hair. It may reduce surface frizz, but it is not intended to create the same degree of shape control as Kerasilk.
-
The service usually takes approximately two and a half to four hours.
The exact appointment time depends on your hair length, density, natural texture, condition, and the level of smoothing selected.
-
Results may last for several months and, in suitable hair with the correct aftercare, can last up to approximately five months.
Longevity varies according to your hair, home-care routine, washing frequency, and lifestyle.
-
Many clients repeat Kerasilk when the previous result has softened and their natural texture or frizz has become more noticeable.
The appropriate frequency will depend on your hair condition and treatment history. We recommend reassessing the hair before every repeat service rather than following a fixed schedule.
-
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, we recommend speaking with your healthcare professional before receiving any professional smoothing treatment.
You should also discuss your circumstances with our team before booking so that we can provide the relevant product information and help you make an informed decision.
