Some Brazilian Blowout dangers and concerns

The Brazilian Blowout hair treatment is the hottest smoothing treatment to come on the market since Japanese thermal hair straightening. It is suppose to be safe, but the brazilian blowout has been said to have some dangers. It has not been fully proven but some have reported:
  • Hair thinning
  • Hair Loss
  • Brittle/Dry hair
  • Formaldehyde dangers
Even though some have reported these concerns, others have said this is the best hair straightening treatment they have tried.

Also, with any type of treatment to your hair you should have a professional doing it. This could truly cut down on the dangers of hair thinning, hair loss, or brittle/drying hair. If you are unable to have a professional do your treatment you should really grasp the instructions and know what you are doing before you begin.

You should also take the correct after treatment care of your hair. There are specially formulated brazilian blowout shampoo and conditioner and other products that should be used in order to receive the best possible results for your hair.

The majority of reviews I have read on the Brazilian Blowout have been mostly positive despite what some are saying. Most are reporting soft, shiny, silky, sleek, manageable, frizz-free hair after treatment.

Brazilian Blowout Formaldehyde Controversy

The newest hair sensation, The Brazilian Blowout has recently come under heavy controversy. It is being said that the product contains formaldehyde.

You may be asking yourself just what is formaldehyde. It is a colorless gas that releases a pungent odor. High level are toxic and exposure to it is dangerous to your health. It is naturally in the environment but it is mostly small amounts.

Now, this totally contradicts what this straightening treatment claims to do for your hair. This product is suppose to be so much healthier for your hair than other smoothing treatments. But, it doesn't appear to be healthy for you or the stylist putting it in.

Even though this treatment is under heavy public scrutiny there are still people who claim no side effects from using this product. Hollywood stylist are even promoting their love for this product. And the product Brazilian Blowout has not been banned. There also has not been any controversy of hospitalization or deaths reported.

It is a newly formulated solution with the plant-derive KeraSafe bonding system. It is stated to have 0% formaldehyde released during or after the treatment.

The new solution is said to seal essential amino acids into the hair. This will give you up to 12 week of smooth, shiny, radiant, frizz-free hair. You can also use the same brazilian blowout shampoo and conditioner with this new solution.

Now, it is up to you to try it or not. But, it you decide to give the Brazilian Blowout Solution I would recommend going with the Zero Solution.
