FAQs

Keratin Smoothing at Ardan

Smoothing treatments cut frizz and styling time for weeks to months. We offer two systems, Cezanne and Inca Glow.

How much is Keratin Smoothing at Ardan?

It starts at $400. Time and price depend on the length of your hair, and we’ll confirm your exact price when you book.

How long does the appointment take?

Plan for about 2.5 hours: about 45 minutes, another 45 minutes, and about an hour to finish.

What’s the difference between Cezanne and Inca Glow?

Cezanne is a keratin smoothing treatment made without formaldehyde. Inca Glow is a non-keratin smoothing system based on amino acids and Inca oil.

How long do results last?

Cezanne Classic can last up to 5 months, and Cezanne Express up to 10 weeks. Inca Glow can last about 12–16 weeks.

Will it make my hair flat or straight?

Cezanne softens and elongates curls without making hair flat, and you can still curl it. Results depend on your hair.

When can I wash my hair?

With Cezanne, you can wash, work out, and wear a ponytail right away. Your stylist will give you care tips for Inca Glow.

Can I get it if my hair is color-treated?

Yes. Color can be done the same day with either system. With Inca Glow, color your hair first; with Cezanne, heat may cause some fading.

Is it safe?

Some smoothing products release formaldehyde when heated, which can irritate the eyes, nose, and lungs. Cezanne’s formula contains no formaldehyde.

Can I have it if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?

Check with your physician first.

Is it the same as a blow dry?

No. A blow dry lasts until your next wash. It’s $60, or $70 for long hair, and takes about 45 minutes.
