The Brazilian Blowout has been one of the most popular treatments in high-end salons over the past year. A short-term solution to rid hair of frizz and make it smooth and shiny, it is not surprising that celebs like Nicole Richie, Ashley Tisdale and Lindsay Lohan have all tried it out on their tresses.  We sampled the “miracle” treatment earlier this year and although we loved the results (no hairdryer for months!), we had a very difficult time breathing in the “no harsh chemicals” fumes, while the treatment was being performed.

Sean James, stylist to the stars (Jamie Lee Curtis and Jaime Pressly are on his roster!) invited us over to the sexy Fred Segal Beauty Salon in Santa Monica, California, to try out the alternative Brazilian Keratin Treatment. The treatment process is similar to the Brazilian Blowout. Hair is washed and dried. Solution is equally distributed throughout hair. Hair is blown out with treatment in. Hair is straightened with a flat iron.
