This guide focuses on natural texture for keratin smoothing consultation. Use it to prepare a specific salon conversation, then confirm the plan with the stylist who assesses your hair.
Use your real texture as the starting point
Discuss keratin smoothing consultation with a current photograph showing the way you naturally wear your hair. Product choice, hair history and aftercare should be clear before proceeding. A smooth or curled inspiration photo may show finishing that changes the apparent shape.
Compare the finished versions
A smoothing consultation compares a desired texture change with the requirements of the proposed treatment. Ask the stylist “What product would be used and what instructions apply afterward?” and compare an air-dried version with a tool-styled version. Explain whether you want to preserve your pattern or change how it looks when finished.
Confirm the stylist and preparation
Ask which stylist and appointment fit the keratin smoothing consultation goal on your texture. Preparation instructions should come from the selected salon rather than a generic internet rule. Compare a temporary blowout if the first plan depends on a finish you would rarely maintain at home.
