The brand
Kerasilk, a Kao brand related to Goldwell
Kerasilk is a premium hair care line owned by Kao, the group that also makes Goldwell. The brand describes its Keratin Treatment as a long-lasting expert service for hair that is unmanageable, curly, wavy, or frizzy.
Kerasilk is one of two smoothing lines Vanessa works with, the other being Keratin Complex, and she decides between them after seeing your hair. New to smoothing in a humid climate? Begin with the keratin treatment guide. If Brazilian blowout was your search, this is the sort of service many people have in mind.
Color from the same group
The color Vanessa uses is Goldwell, also part of Kao. If both a color service and smoothing are on your calendar this season, mention both when you call the salon so the visits can be sequenced and spaced.

Control and Refinement, side by side
Kerasilk offers its Keratin Treatment as two customizable services. The brand points Control at unruly hair and Refinement at surface frizz, where it describes improved manageability and movement. The decision is made with Vanessa once she has seen your hair.

The formula
Biomimetic silk, shea oil, and KERASHAPE
Two Kerasilk products carry the service: Smoothing Lotion and Smoothing Finishing Serum. Here is how the brand describes what is in them.
Biomimetic silk
Every Kerasilk formula contains biomimetic silk, according to the brand, and the keratin treatment is no exception.
Shea oil
Shea oil appears on the ingredient list Kerasilk gives for its keratin treatment.
KERASHAPE
Kerasilk describes KERASHAPE as heat-activated technology that builds new bonds and cross-links inside the hair.

Staying power
A result rated for up to five months
The brand's figure for its Keratin Treatment is smooth results for up to 5 months. As with most smoothing, the effect tends to ease off little by little with each wash instead of ending on a set date.
Wash frequency
A little of the smoothing eases with every shampoo, so stretching the days between washes usually stretches the result.
Ocean and pool
After a swim, rinse with fresh water before salt or chlorine has a chance to dry into your hair.
Sun exposure
Strong Florida sun dries out any hair. On long days by the water, wear a hat or mist on a UV spray.
Natural texture
Thick or curly hair tends to show its own pattern a bit sooner as the treatment fades.
At home
Caring for your Kerasilk results
Broad advice for the weeks that follow. Kerasilk leaves the first-wash and styling timing unstated for this treatment, so Vanessa gives you her own instructions at the end of the visit.
When to wash
No wash-wait time is published by Kerasilk for this service. Vanessa tells you when your first shampoo can happen.
A mild shampoo
A gentle, sulfate-free shampoo is the usual advice after smoothing. Ask which one fits your hair.
Turn the heat down
Treated hair tends to dry and take a style faster, so a lower setting on your tools is often enough.
What to use at home
Vanessa recommends home care at your appointment.

What exactly is the Kerasilk Keratin Treatment?
A salon smoothing service from Kerasilk, the premium hair care brand within Kao. The brand calls it a long-lasting expert service for hair that is unmanageable, curly, wavy, or frizzy.
How many months does Kerasilk smoothing last?
Kerasilk gives a figure of up to 5 months of smooth results. How close you come depends on how often you shampoo and how much sun, salt water, and chlorine your hair meets.
Control or Refinement: how are they different?
Kerasilk positions Control for unruly hair and calls it powerful yet gentle. Refinement is for surface frizz, and the brand says it gives natural-looking smoother hair with improved manageability and movement. You and Vanessa choose between them once she has seen your hair.
Which ingredients are in Kerasilk?
Biomimetic silk is in every Kerasilk formula. The keratin treatment adds shea oil plus KERASHAPE, heat-activated technology which, by the brand's account, builds new bonds and cross-links inside the hair. The service uses two products: Smoothing Lotion and Smoothing Finishing Serum.
Are Kerasilk and Goldwell connected?
They are: both belong to Kao. Since Goldwell is the color Vanessa uses, mention any color plans when you book smoothing so the two can be planned in a sensible order.
How long should I wait to wash after Kerasilk?
Kerasilk does not state one for this service. Before you leave the chair, Vanessa explains when your first shampoo and first heat styling can happen.
How do I decide between Kerasilk and Keratin Complex?
The choice rests on your hair, how smooth you would like it, and what color you have planned. Vanessa offers both and will recommend one after looking at your hair.
What does Kerasilk smoothing cost in Ormond Beach?
Your length, your density, and the service that fits your hair set the price. Call 386-872-2263 to book. Vanessa gives you the price once she has seen your hair, before any work begins.
Where in Ormond Beach is the salon?
Hair Goddess Salon, Spa & Boutique is on 236 Riverbeach Dr. in Ormond Beach, serving Ormond Beach, Ormond-by-the-Sea, and Holly Hill.
