Great post! If I may clarify: Brazilian Blowout is a brand name, not a category of treatments. Brazilian Blowout makes only one solution and it is not only formaldehyde-free, but free of all "hyde" family ingredients.
Some other keratin treatments use various aldehydes to bond their treatment onto the hair, while Brazilian Blowout uses their proprietary polymer system. It can be confusing, as many of the names are similar, such as Brazilian Keratin, Keratin Complex, Global Keratin, etc. To make matters worse, some salons and stylists are not forthcoming about which product they use, or even flat-out lie, using the Brazilian Blowout name to describe other treatments.
These treatments all promise amazing hair, but they do contain different ingredients, use different processes and give different results. For example, with Brazilian Blowout you have no downtime; with other keratin treatments, you have to wait 1-4 days before you can wash pr even ponytail your hair!
Make no mistake--there is only ONE Brazilian Blowout!
