The Brazilian Blowout - For Brides Who Want Low Maintenance Hair
January 4th, 2010 | Women Interest, wedding health
Ok, everything they say about the Brazilian Blowout is true, I finally took the plunge (all for the benefit of my readers, of course) and had it done. And I LOVE it!!!! This IS the secret to beautiful hair and believe it or not it actually improves the health of your hair and does not damage it in any way.
Fortunately, I did not have to travel all the way to West Hollywood to have it done, I was lucky enough to find a local salon with a fabulous hair stylist who knew exactly what to do. The process is identical to what they show in the video but thankfully a little less expensive. It made my long course, straight, hair shiny and smooth but not pin straight, and it still has body.
The best part about it is it returns to this exact state after you wash it, even if you let it air dry. Now I am all about LOW MAINTAINENCE hair and that is why I am highly recommending it to all of you soon to be brides out there. Now obviously you all want to look beautiful on the wedding day but what about all the pre-wedding events, and not to mention the honeymoon. I really think this would make your life so much simpler in an upcoming time of chaos.
There are a few downsides, for instance the initial cost, and the cost of the hair products which are necessary to maintain it. I paid a $150.00 for the treatment which is quite steep but they say it last three months and the products I bought are supposed to last through three or four treatments. But I will be honest with you the worst downside is the fact that it is very likely you will become addicted to your hair looking this amazing all the time.

Hey Rhonda!
Seems this wouldn’t be for people with thin fine hair…did they say anything about that?
BTW, you should post before and after pics!
Hey Rhon,
I think I’ll try it out before I go on vacation. Are there specific instructions one follows after getting the treatment?
Heidi, Thank you for the comment, I think a vacation is a perfect time for a Brazilian blowout (cut down on that styling time). The only requirement is you have to use a sulphate free shampoo and conditioner and a hair masque once a week. So really not much different than normal, except for maybe the masque, which you can leave in overnight if you choose. I’m sure your stylist will recommend the hair care products you will need.

Hi Holly, I think you are right I don’t believe this is something for fine, thin hair. But per your request I have taken an after picture that I will post soon. Thanks so much for your comments!! Rhonda
TO Holly: Hi! I am a certified stylist for the Brazilian Blowout at Salon Sessions in Pasadena, CA. This is an amazing treatment to get done. It truly does what it promises cuts blowdry time, removes frizz and adds a tremendous amount of shine!
And it is customizable for fine thin hair as well! It just needs to be applied a different way
