A classic trend that always seems to keep popping up is super straight hair. The sleek style is versatile, matching whatever look you’re rocking even if your hair is long or short. But if you weren’t gifted with naturally pin-straight locks, this hair trend doesn’t come easy. You can spend time with the flat iron and blow dryer trying to tease the ceaseless waves from your hair or you can try our Japanese hair straightening services at Meraki Hair & Makeup Studio. Your wavy, coarse, and curly hair will finally tame with our styling experts. 

How it Works
Japanese hair straightening, also called thermal reconditioning, uses a process that works to change your hair’s natural shape. Chemicals interact with the protein bonds in your hair and break them down with the help on specialized flat irons to get permanent straight strands. The whole process can take a long time to complete, but it means you wake up with a ready to go look.    

The Perks of Japanese Hair Straightening
Depending on the length of your hair, the process for long-term straight style can take hours. So, you might be asking yourself if the benefits are really worth it and the answer is yes! You’ll easily make up that time getting the same poker straight look without any of your typical tools and you’ll notice your hair dries faster after shows. Japanese hair straightening also adds shine and won’t frizz in humidity without needing any products.
