Are smoothing treatments like Brazilian Blowout, Lasio, or Keratherapy right for my hair type?
Yes! At Mella Salon, we customize smoothing treatments to suit all hair types—whether your hair is curly, wavy, frizzy, or color-treated. During your consultation, our experts will recommend the best treatment to achieve your desired smoothness and manageability.
What’s the difference between a keratin treatment and a Brazilian Blowout?
Both treatments smooth and reduce frizz, but the Brazilian Blowout creates a protective protein layer on the hair’s surface for sleekness and shine, while keratin treatments like Keratherapy work by infusing keratin deep into the hair shaft for stronger, healthier strands. Lasio offers another approach with a more intense smoothing effect for very curly or coarse hair.
Will these treatments make my hair pin-straight or just reduce frizz?
These treatments primarily reduce frizz and improve manageability without completely straightening your hair. Your natural texture will be enhanced but smoother and more polished, with added shine.
How long will results last from a Brazilian Blowout or Keratin treatment?
Results typically last between 8 to 12 weeks, depending on your hair type and maintenance routine. We’ll provide aftercare advice to help you extend the life of your treatment.
Can I still get a smoothing treatment if I have color-treated or chemically processed hair?
Absolutely! Our stylists at Mella Salon are skilled at working with color-treated and chemically processed hair. We use gentle, customized formulas to ensure your hair remains healthy and vibrant.
Is it safe to get hair color and a smoothing treatment on the same day?
Yes, but it depends on your hair’s condition. We recommend a consultation to evaluate the best timing for your treatments to avoid over-processing and maintain hair health.
How soon after the treatment can I wash or style my hair?
Typically, you should wait 48 to 72 hours before washing your hair or applying heat styling to allow the treatment to fully set. Your stylist will give you specific aftercare instructions.

Will hair coloring damage my hair?
When done professionally, coloring does not have to damage your hair. At Mella Salon, we use high-quality color formulas and conditioning treatments to maintain your hair’s strength and shine.
How long will my color last before needing a touch-up?
Touch-up timing depends on the service and your hair type. Root colors typically need refreshing every 4–6 weeks, while balayage or dimensional color may last 8–12 weeks. Your stylist will recommend a personalized maintenance plan.
Do I need a consultation before coloring my hair for the first time?
Yes, a consultation is strongly recommended. It allows us to assess your hair history, condition, and goals, ensuring we use the safest and most effective approach for your color transformation.
What’s the difference between balayage and traditional highlights?
Balayage gives a soft, natural, lived-in look with easier grow-out, while foil highlights create more defined, uniform brightness from root to tip. We’ll help you decide which suits your look and maintenance preferences.

Do you offer reinstallation for extensions that have already been worn?
