A Brazilian blowout typically lasts 10 to 12 weeks on Indian hair, but only if you're careful and use sulfate-free shampoo. The results can vanish quickly if you swim in chlorinated pools or don't follow proper aftercare.

It can be safe for colored hair, but the stylist must check your hair condition first. If you recently got highlights or bleaching done, it's risky and could lead to breakage. You need an experienced stylist to properly assess your hair's condition.
A Brazilian blowout is a specific brand of treatment that typically contains less formaldehyde. The key difference is that you can style your hair immediately after the treatment, unlike some other keratin treatments that require waiting days before washing your hair.
While you might find available slots, it's not recommended to book last minute. Your hair needs to be in good condition for the treatment, and you should have a consultation first. A bad result right before a big event could be disastrous, so proper planning is essential.
Before booking, call and ask: 'What brand of keratin do you use?' (Cadiveu, Brazilian Blowout brand, etc.) and 'Is your stylist certified for this specific treatment?' This helps ensure you're getting a quality treatment from a qualified professional.
Typically every 6 to 8 weeks, but if you have an oily scalp or live in humid areas like Mumbai, you may need maintenance every 4-5 weeks as humidity breaks down the adhesive faster.
Waiting too long can cause the hair at the roots to mat together, create more pulling on your scalp, make extensions look fake as your natural hair grows out, and potentially require an emergency salon visit to fix the damage.
No, attempting to do it yourself is risky. You need special remover and proper technique to avoid ripping out your natural hair or damaging the expensive extensions, which could require purchasing a whole new set.
Book maintenance as soon as the extensions feel a little less secure, not when they're completely loose. This helps maintain volume and protects your investment by preventing damage to your natural hair.
Look for apps that show before-and-after photos specifically about highlights, especially around the face. Check if the stylist's portfolio focuses on highlight work rather than just haircuts, as this indicates they specialize in coloring techniques.
Yes, it's very risky. Highlights require proper processing time, and last-minute bookings can result in rushed work, incorrect tones, or stylists taking shortcuts. For important events, it's better to book well in advance to allow time for adjustments if needed.
Portfolio photos are often taken under perfect salon lighting. Highlights can appear different in various lighting conditions - they might look brassy, dull, or not as vibrant in your office or home environment compared to the salon's professional lighting.
