Pure Brazilian Keratin Treatment Steps
Pure Brazilian Keratin Treatment
The Pure Brazilian Treatment is a 90-minute salon service that can transform your client’s hair to be silky, smooth, frizz-free and manageable.
Follow along for what you will need to offer a Pure Brazilian Keratin Treatment and a step-by-step guide for getting the best results. A PDF summary is available for download on this page below the treatment instructions.
The Pure Brazilian Treatment is not permanent and it is not a relaxer. It is a smoothing process that coats hair with a protective barrier of amino acids, making it stronger, much softer and more manageable.

How to Apply Pure Brazilian Reconstructor Solution
Step 1
Open the cuticle. Wash hair with Pure Brazilian Anti-Residue Shampoo. Let sit on hair for 5 minutes to penetrate the cuticle. Repeat if necessary until hair has a “squeaky clean” feeling. Focus on the hairline, nape of neck and mid-shaft to end.
Step 2
Towel dry the hair. Hair should be damp, but not “too wet” or “too dry”. Use a blow dryer if needed.
Step 3
Divide the hair into 4 sections using clips. You will start applying from the nape to the top. Measure 1 ounce of Pure Brazilian Reconstructor
(Step 2) Solution into your colour bowl. Add more if necessary, but this is usually enough
Step 4
Starting at the nape, using ¼” to ½” subsec- tions, use an applicator brush to lightly dust the Reconstructor onto a section of hair. Apply root to end but do not apply directly to the scalp. Comb through with a fine tooth comb to remove excess product. Apply evenly to each section until all hair is coated.
Step 5
Blow-dry hair 100% using a round brush or paddle brush. Get the hair as smooth as possible.
Step 6
Section the hair into 4 sections. Depending on the condition of the hair, the flat
iron’s temperature should range between 380-450°F (190-230°C). Using 2-3 inch sections, flat iron from root to end using consistent pressure. Pass over 5-6 times.
If the client desires a straighter effect, pass over 6-8 times.
Step 7
Rinse the Reconstructor
Solution from the hair for 2-3 minutes using lukewarm water. (No need to shampoo, just rinse.)
Step 8
Apply the Pure Brazilian Deep Conditioning Masque liberally.
Let sit for 2-3 minutes. Rinse.
Step 9
Spray Pure Brazilian Miracle Leave-In Conditioner evenly through hair.
Step 10
Blow-dry using fingers. Then style as desired.
Step 11
Be sure your client uses the Home Care products to optimise treatment and ensure long-lasting results!
Important Notes
a. “Less is more” with product usage. A little goes a long way!

Pure Brazilian Vs Brazilian Blowout
Pure Brazilian is a different brand from Brazilian Blowout and while they are both protein treatments, Brazilian Blowout is technically not a keratin treatment.
Both treatments get impressive reviews and you can learn more about Brazilian Blowouts in this review.
With the correct use of After Care products, the Pure Brazilian treatment is reported to last between one and two months longer than a Brazilian Blowout.
