Its impossible to say.

There are lots of diff treatments out there. Every hairdresser seemed to get a diff one.

I had one done in a partic place. It made my hair look awful.

I never had it done there again.

I had one done somewhere else. It looked brilliant. But it didn't last anywhere near 12 weeks. It lasted about six.

Plus you have to use special shampoo and conditioner with it. And you can't get salt water in it. So no beach.

Ask for any info you need from them etc.

Hey December, for me it's been a game changer. I love it.
It takes about two hours depending on the length of your hair. This is what happens:
1. They wash your hair with clarifying shampoo to open the pores and let more product in.
2. They apply the product which is a bit like a conditioner or a hair dye. They just lash it on and comb through.
3. They blow-dry your hair with the product still in which feels weird and then they straighten it section by section many times to seal the product in.
4. Your hair will be poker straight. Me and my sister call it 'flathead'

You can't get your hair wet for 3 days. You also can't tie it up or get it creased. It's annoying but oh so worth it!
The result is super shiny silky hair. Mine always lasts 12 weeks if not longer because I use the right products.
Boots do sulphate free shampoo. It's essential you use this or you'll break the product down.

Let us know how you get on!

Btw I started buying the product online and now do it to myself for 30 euro as opposed to 180!
