COCOCHOCOBrazilian Keratin Hair Treatment 33.8 fl oz - Formaldehyde Free

the instructions are easy to follow. i have wavy slightly frizzy hair that hasnt been dyed or bleached. i was nervous to try this that it might damage my hair or make it fall out but figured constantly straightening it would do the same so i went for it. it smells good until you straighten it. then it smells kinda like burnt plastic. the fumes didnt burn my eyes or make me cough so idk if the other reviews used too much or if i didnt use enough. will update if it damages my hair and how long it lasts, but i love the results so far. here’s a before and after.

I am an Indian guy with thick coarse frizzy slightly wavy hair that is 4 inches long and I do not want pin straight hair, so my review will be biased. You do not get a lot of product in the bottle, but I will not use it up fast since I don't plan on growing out my hair more than 6 inches.The product really does its job of smoothing the hair and reducing so much frizz. However, this product could use more curl reduction if someone has curlier or more stubborn hair than me. I have hair on the right part of my head that is stubborn to straighten with my heated comb and the keratin gave it a little boost on the first day, but after I showered and washed my hair, all my hair straightened easier, but not all the way to "pin straight". I got it to be the perfect texture that I wanted. Also, the instructions tell you to wait three days to wash your hair, but I only waited one day just to experiment and the keratin still lasted in my hair. It did not wear off as most reviews said, but it did the same thing that usual keratin treatments would do where your hair would fluff up after the first wash, so your hair will not look flat. I just did my 2nd wash today, and it did feel a bit knotty in some areas, so comb your hair out, but it still felt like the keratin is there and once my hair dried, it did not feel knotty.The application of the product is really easy with simple instructions. The bottle came in a little box, so no complex package or no ridiculous things for you to struggle to open up. The smell of the product is a nice chocolatey smell and it is a little strong, but not as strong as people say it is. Best result is after you wash your hair and do your straightening.Just like any keratin treatment, use sulfate free shampoo and conditioners. You are usually not supposed to put hair gels or other products in your hair, but I did it and the keratin is still there. I use a sulfate free tea tree shampoo from Chi and a sulfate free conditioner from Herbal Essences. For styling, I use the Biosilk leave in conditioner then I put a sulfate free TGIN rose water hair gel.Before I tried this product, I tried agave oil treatment (I was scared of keratin) and it burned a little and felt like it had weight, so overall, this product is much better than an agave treatment I recently had, because it feels weightless and does not burn. I used gloves when applying the product, but i don't think you need gloves, but it did not burn my skin at all!Update:So on the second week I had this product, I did not notice stripping at all, I realized that it was my fault for stripping the product out the first week. I am mad at myself because I bought a Silk Touch keratin treatment by Hair Bar NYC and that keratin was a dud, and I returned the Coco Choco for nothing! So now I had to buy it back. I absolutely love this product and I think it is perfect and not the best at curl reduction and it also will require minor touch ups every few weeks or so.

The media could not be loaded. This product is another level, a friend recommended it to me and I was delighted.The shine and hydration it gives to the hair is impressive

This product impressed me and my hairdresser! I used it in between my standard keratin treatments. The directions were easy to follow and video links made it even clearer. I did leave the product on about twice as long as recommended but that was only because I got a bit distracted and I figured it would better serve to remove frizz. I should say my hair is of medium thickness and falls a couple of inches below my shoulder. It gets quite frizzy if left to dry naturally so I usually go for regular keratin treatments to knockback the frizz. Since there is no formaldehyde or harsh chemicals in this product I figured leaving it in extra time would only serve to further soften my hair. There is a bit of an odor, however an open window or other well ventilated area really mitigates that. It is my understanding it is the keratin itself that causes the scent, but it is not harmful. I got a little help using the flat iron in the back to be certain I hit all sections but otherwise it really can be done on one’s own. I do wish its effects lasted a bit longer but it did get me through the summer heat and humidity very nicely. I would say it is definitely worth a try.Good results at a great value!

This works! It makes my hair air-dry smooth and sleek which has never happened before in my life. I use special shampoo to make sure it doesn’t wash off too early. It took me about 3 hours bc I chose to wash and air dry my hair the day before as usual. I do have to wash my hair more often though, my scalp looks oil more quickly but that could just be from the shampoo not having sulfates in itIt does still make my eyes burn so I have to do it in ventilated room and then still bloody met eyes on the cool settings every few minutes.

Trust the mix comments!It doesn’t work! I followed the instructions and after first wash, it was less frizzy but still wavy and after second wash it all get back to what it was before!! My hair responds to professional treatment before but this time with this product it didn’t! It has a good texture and smell but my eyes were burning when I was using it although I wear an N95 mask.Don’t waste your time and moneyFirst pic, before second after ironing and third after washing

Excelente.

Pros:- I have thick hair, so I thought one bottle wouldn’t be enough. I have little less than half so the product goes a long way! Don’t put too much on though.- I’m one month out and my hair is still easier to manage. My curls are still intact but are looser. This may be a con for some, but for me I consider it a pro. While I love my curls, it is much easier to manage it now. I get to use less hair product too.- Sweet smell afterwards.Cons:- Make sure you are in a well ventilated area; at the very least keep a window open while running a fan. I made the mistake of only having a window open because I did not smell any fumes at first. After 10 minutes it hit me and I almost passed out. It was fine once I had my fan on and went to a ventilated room.
