  • KeraStraight Intense Boost Review


    I was asked to be a hair model for KeraStraight live on stage at the Salon International exhibition for the second time. The first time, I had the KS Ultimate treatment. I’d never been a hair model before but I absolutely loved my results, as did the crowd. You can read about my full experience with the KeraStraight KS Ultimate treatment here.

    I was thrilled to be invited back by the KeraStraight team and I opted to have the Intense Boost treatment this time. I was tempted to have the KS Ultimate again but I’ve had it done twice; I loved the results so much I paid to have it done a second time six months later.

    They say the benefits of the KS Ultimate lasts 6 weeks up to four months and I was still seeing the benefits (less frizz, drying & straightening time cut in half, easier to manage etc) five months later. I felt I didn’t really need another KS Ultimate just yet so I opted to try the KeraStraight Intense Boost treatment instead.

    What is the Kerastraight Intense Boost?

    The Intense Boost treatment is a smoothing treatment that deeply conditions and rehydrates the hair. You can choose between a Protein Boost or a Moisture Boost, it was decided my hair would benefit most from the Moisture Boost treatment. This is what KeraStraight have to say about the Intense Boost:

    “This super speedy smoothing treatment repairs, renews and rehydrates hair from the inside out in just 30 minutes with results lasting for up to 30 days. Fine, weak or damaged hair? Protein Boost creates gorgeous locks, leaving them healthier, stronger and softer. For dry hair, Moisture Boost delivers incredible hydration, sensational shine and repair and unlike many moisture treatments, does not weigh the hair down.”

    My Experience with the Kerastraight Intense Boost

    My appointment wasn’t until the afternoon so in the morning I washed my hair. I decided to brush it out to help with detangling but it meant that I arrived with brushed out, frizzy hair rather than curly hair. I arrived at the stand at the Salon International and was taken to have my hair washed. Back on stage my wet hair was spritzed with the Moisture Mist and detangled. Then the Moisture Mask was applied and left to sink in.

    My hairdresser, Schola, decided to upgrade my treatment from an Intense Boost to an Ultimate Boost. This meant running the straighteners through my hair whilst the Moisture Mask was in my hair to really help it penetrate the hair shaft and get to work. The mask was then washed out and my hair was blowdried and straightened to style. The KeraStraight Ultimate Oil (which I love!) was applied to finish. The result was beautifully straight, soft, silky, shiny hair!

    Six Weeks On

    Now six weeks after having the treatment, my hair is still a lot easier to straighten, frizz is minimised and my hair actually curls a lot better than it had done in recent weeks before having the treatment. I’d been washing my hair a lot more with the different exercise classes I’d been going to, but wasn’t conditioning and moisturising it as much as I should have been so my curls suffered. The Moisture Mask breathed life back into my curls, making my wash-and-go style a lot more attractive.

    I’m so glad I’ve found KeraStraight, or rather, KeraStraight found me! I really do love their treatments and I mean it when I say I’ll be a customer for life. My hair has grown a lot this year and I was the girl with hair that wouldn’t go past her shoulders for 3 years because the ends would just break off. My hair is a lot stronger and has managed to grow to bra length with little effort from me. I credit some of that growth to KeraStraight as I believe the KS Ultimate strengthened my hair. I’m planning on getting the KS Ultimate again in the Summer and I love that now I know I can get the KeraStraight Intense Boost to boost my results until then.

    I was gifted the KeraStraight Intense Boost treatment in exchange for being a hair model and my honest review. Hair is important to me and I would never recommend something that I had a bad experience with. Please, please choose a good hairdresser before having any sort of treatment done. If someone’s prices are a bargain, there is probably a reason for that.
