Brazilian Treatments And Brazilian Treatment Dangers

May 12, 2010 - PRLog -- At Rodolfo Valentin’s Salons and Spas we promote healthy hair and have founded our philosophy based on this standard.   Therefore, all services are carefully tested and tried before it is offered to ensure that every product and service maintains the integrity of our clientele’s natural hair.  

Both the professionals and the clients are not fully aware of the dangers that come with the newest craze of the Brazilian Hair Straightening Technique.   It is because of the active ingredient in the Brazilian treatment, formaldehyde that the treatment itself maintained on the black market for quite some time before approved for salon use.  

The allotted percentage of formaldehyde deemed safe by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Authority Board is .2%.  Unfortunately the Food and Drug Administration does not control cosmetic distribution as of yet but are in the process of involvement. This ingredient is also found in smoked and cured cheeses and meats.

Many salon owners and stylists claim that their preferred brand of the Brazilian Keratin Treatment, although not .2 but 2%, is safe and approved.  However, many of those who heed the warnings of this product report taking extra precautions to ensure the safety of their clients; such as using latex gloves and performing the treatment closer to the window for more ventilation of the hazardous fumes.  Many hair salons are looking to pull this treatment off their shelves until a hazard-free treatment is premiered.  

At Rodolfo Valentin, we offer the Brazilian Keratin Hair Treatment from the popular brand of Bella DiFelice, a leading company of this field as it is known to be of the safest techniques available.  To further ensure that the treatments offered are of the highest quality and can guarantee the healthiest results, Constance Weber (founder and developer of Bella diFelice) has recently joined the Rodolfo Valentin team of experts.  

Using a product that is proven safe for both the technician as well as the clients, without the use of face masks, no unconventional preparations or equipments grants certainty when performing such treatments.  With a distribution list that spans the country, harboring top salons, at Rodolfo Valentin’s Salons and Spas offers only the safest Brazilian Keratin Treatment. The recipient of the treatment has a choice of formaldehyde formula or formaldehyde free,  backed by the owner’s guaranteed seal of approval.  

For clients who choose not to go with the Brazilian Keratin treatment, Rodolfo Valentin offers the Japanese Thermal Permanent Straightener.  A permanent relaxer that leaves the hair pin straight indefinitely without waves or inconsistency from root, to shaft, right down to the tips.  Maintenance requires a touch-up when roots grow in only.
