Relaxers (Keratin, Rebonding and Smoothing)
Hair relaxers are defined by the use of a chemical treatment that breaks down the bonds in the hair to permanently alter a wavy hair texture into a straight one. The active ingredients in relaxers usually consist of sodium, calcium, lithium or guanidine hydroxide. Ammerose Hair Salon utilizes both modern and time tested conditioning relaxer systems dependent on several factors. We use specific relaxer treatments for each type of hair; regular, coarse, fine, coloured, sensitive scalp or multi-cultural textured hair.

We are very mindful to use this industries best protective treatments to protect your scalp from any discomfort and also to protect any previously relaxed hair from overlapping. A deep conditioning reconstructor treatment is also given with all relaxer hair treatments.
