Tired of frizz, dryness or unruly hair? Wondering whether Keratin or Hair Smoothening is the right treatment for you?
At Green Trends Ashok Nagar, we get this question all the time—and the answer depends on your hair type, goals, and maintenance preferences.
Here’s a complete guide to help you choose the best treatment for frizz-free, manageable hair.
A Keratin treatment infuses your hair with the natural protein keratin, making it smoother, shinier, and stronger. It repairs damaged strands and improves texture without making your hair poker-straight.
Frizzy and dry hair
Damaged or chemically treated hair
Wavy hair you want to maintain (not make fully straight)
People who want natural-looking smoothness
Hair Smoothening uses chemical relaxants like formaldehyde derivatives to break hair bonds and straighten the hair shaft. It gives a sleeker, straight finish and is more long-lasting than keratin.
Very curly or unmanageable hair
People wanting straight hair with no waves
Those okay with chemical treatments for longer-lasting results

“If you're looking to improve hair texture and manageability, go for Keratin. If you want a drastic straight look, Smoothening is better. We assess hair condition before recommending the ideal treatment,” says our stylist from Green Trends Ashok Nagar.
