I am going to HCMC in two weeks and I would like to get a permanent hair straightening (brazilian blowout, keratin treatment, rebounding, Japanese straightening).

I took a look at some info online but the only one I found was the Concept Coiffure that looks top of the line but the price is definitely above my budget.

Does anybody has any options that would cost $100 ish (or less)?

Thank you so much in advance!

Hi,

Permanent straightening? Is that possible? I have heard our hair will be weaker if we have them straightened.

Im brazilian and I did many times when I was home. Then I did once in Kathmandu (Nepal) which I loved it and then another time in Manila, which I did not like. The last was 2 years ago.
All the ones that were good were actually really good and they last aprox 6 months.

If so, it is not permanent. Just temporary. Most hairdresser shops have that service in VN.

Permanent if looked from the perspective of the session of hair that was done. It does't last forever as the hair grows.

I'm actually looking for some specific recommendation (name of a place) from somebody that has done it in HCMC or that knows a bit about it. The procedure is heavy chemically and I would try to avoid doing just dropping by (what happened in Manila).

Thanks a lot though!

Thank you so much. Im ready for a good start on this search.

I have just sent a message to Alex as I found him on Facebook.
Do you know anybody that has done the straightening in any of those salons?

Hi,

Don't worry about those salons. I carefully checked those for myself as I wanted to change to a new salon. The price is expensive to compare to many places. I intend to go there to have my hair cut a bit next month.

I have known another salons which specialize in short hair. If your hair is short and wants to make color.. They are perfect. I am sending you my private pictures in your box. That is not perfect short hair I have ever had..

Hi danielleom,
Where did you go in Kathmandu? Also, what is it like as it grows out?
Thanks for your help!
