Whats the difference between a Brazillian and a Japanese straightner?

The difference is that the Japanese is permenant which leaves a crease in your hair, and its VERY damaging. The Brazillian fades out evenly over about 4 to 5 months and it never creases. The brazillian is also pure protein locked into the hairs cuticle, so its actually very beneficial to hair, rather than harmful.

I just went to the hair show in NYC on sunday, and they had this brazilian straightening system. You've got to let me know details when you can, my boss is thinking of getting some at our salon and I wasn't really feelin the idea but I'm glad that you've had it done so that I can hear more about it.

The brazilian hair straightening loosens the curl/straightens but one of the main points about it is that it takes away frizz frm the hair. I doubt ur hair would still give u problems after a service like this
