What is Keramimic Treatment

Hello there! For ladies with frizzy and unmanageable hair, this will be very helpful. A new article to introduce a promotion that has not been introduced for a while. Previously, we did a calculation, counting how many of our customers did this service, and the number is quite surprising.

It was around two third of all our appointments in a month. Our regulars and VIP members might know about this service but it’s time to introduce it to more people so that more people can enjoy the effect of this service.

Introducing our Keramimic Treatment, a keratin + collagen-based treatment which will have a tremendous effect on the hair. The name is very interesting too, it is made up of 2 different words - Keratin + Mimic, keramimic. This means, it is imitative of the element - keratin. An important thing to note is that although it has similar ingredients, this is not a keratin treatment.

Without going too in-depth on hair science, 90% of our hair is made up of keratin, and it is an essential protein to protect the hair from damage. And collagen is a type of structural protein that the body needs to produce keratin.

Once again, what is our hair mostly made up of? Keratin. And what does this treatment provide? Keratin + Collagen, exactly what the hair needs.

Before we discuss the effect, let’s go through a visual representation of a damaged hair that undergoes the treatment -

For this lady, she had her hair bleached entirely a couple of rounds in the past, this is actually a very beautiful light blonde but we can also see that the hair is quite lifeless, frizzy, and a little unmanageable. The hair will feel very rough too.

A healthy hair is full of keratin and collagen so the strand appears fuller, healthier, and docile. By docile, it means there are little flyaway strands and it has sufficient weight to keep the hair down without flying around.

When the hair is bleached, layers of the hair might be stripped away by the bleaching so sometimes the hair appears thinner. It’s similar to our human body, when we have a bit of muscle, we look healthier and stronger, and the same goes for the hair too.

This means, conversely, without sufficient keratin in the hair, the typical outcome will be like this, lifeless, frizzy, and unmanageable.

And after the keramimic treatment, this is what it looks like

The entire hair looks like it has hit the refresh F5 button on the keyboard, it looks entirely different. Haha.

Previously, the 3 issues are lifeless, frizzy, and unmanageable, it is not lifeless anymore as we can see the strands have gotten slightly thicker. This is because a lot of keratin + collagen has been applied and locked in each hair strand itself.

To add further, when the strand has sufficient keratin to fix all the damaged parts, it will be visibly fuller by itself, and with it being slightly heavier (extra keratin), the frizz and unmanageable issues are reduced by a lot. This is what healthy hair should look like.

With that said, this is the price -

Keramimic Treatment @ $138 (for one pax)

This is for all hair lengths, inclusive of haircut

The base of this treatment is made up of Keratin + Collagen, one of our best all-rounded treatment

Function of the treatment

As a lot of keratin + collagen will be applied and locked in the hair, this helps to reduce frizz, soften the hair by a lot, increase the manageability and vitality of the hair. If you want softer, well-managed, lesser frizz, visibly healthier hair, this is it. When the hair loses its keratin and is damaged, the most effective solution will be to replenish the keratin back in the hair. You give the hair what it needs. A very simple and effective answer to haircare.

Short FAQ

1. Is this like the keratin treatment? It is slightly similar but it’s not a keratin treatment. Keratin treatment has a stronger smoothing and straightening effect, the keramimic treatment is more focused on the softening, moisturizing, an all-rounded service, but lesser on the straightening effect.

2. So will it straighten the hair? It will, but not for long. The straightening effect is not strong.

If you are planning to do coloring, you can combine the coloring service with the keramimic treatment too. It will help to balance out the damages. Here are some of the photos that combine coloring with the treatment -

That’s about it for the treatment. I hope you enjoy the treatment as much as our customers do. To book an appt, you can call our hair studios at 6259 4631 (tiong bahru) or 6336 1476 (bugis cube), whatsapp us directly @ http://wa.me/6590250432 (whatsapp only). Stay safe and healthy! :)

Let’s do a breakdown of each individual service to showcase more photos and to recap what the service is about.

Color + Highlights (Japanese Highlights)

This was our recent service of the month for the previous months. It was so well-received that we decided to extend this one more time. In short, this is our usual color + highlights service but we have introduced 7 different colors with japanese highlights.

The highlights below are all done by bleaching, but we can do other kinds of highlights too, either by coloring or lightening if you prefer non-bleach highlights. Here are the 7 japanese highlights photos below. If you want to read more on the Japanese highlights, click here.

Japan Smoky Color without bleach

By far, this is our most popular coloring style which I believe is due to it not having to bleach the hair and yet it is able to achieve special colors like ash purple. This is done with a lifting, to lift the hair to a light brown, and thereafter, the color application.

Lifting is a less damaging process compared to bleaching, a healthier alternative but the tradeoff is the outcome is darker. This is like a smoky, darker version of the original intended color. To read about the entire procedure of this and the entire color choices, click here.

Balayage without bleach

The traditional balayage is a coloring style where the lower half of the hair is bleached and colored. With knowledge from our japan smoky color series, we can now do lifting on the lower 60% length of the hair and do a smoky balayage, for example, a smoky rose brown. Instead of the full length smoky color, you have a healthier alternative to the classic balayage, a non-bleach balayage. More info on the balayage without bleach here.

Yinyang 2-tone color without bleach

This would be the most straightforward coloring style, similar to an underlight, this would be the normal version of an underlight for 2 layers of coloring without bleaching. This means, you can do colors like a darker brown on the outside, lighter brown on the inside, or dark purple on the outside, and dark red on the inside. To read up more on this coloring style over here.

That’s about it! Thank you for reading!

Japanese Classic Highlights

Hello there! Highlights have always been one of our best and most popular services. There is a lot of variations that we can play with. Thick streaks, thin streaks, ash highlights. light blonde highlights, ash purple babylights with money piece, etc. So many choices to choose from! This time round, we are going to focus on classic highlights but all forms of highlights are under this promotion. Enjoy~~

To do a recap on our past highlights innovation, a couple of years back, we first started with our Japan Autumn Highlights and introduced 3 new types of highlighting styles in Ash Blonde. Fringe Lights, Surface Lights, and See-through Lights.

Fringe Lights

The highlights are done mainly on the fringe area by the side of the hair. More prominent on the front. The hair looks bluish mainly because of the evening light.

Surface Lights

As the name goes, for such highlights, it is only done on the surface of the hair with mostly thinner streaks and a couple of slightly thicker streaks. For the bulk of the hair, it is still the base color so this would lean more on the quieter aspect. Not too much but enough to see something different. Sometimes, less is more! This is our previous hair volunteer, still feeling thankful for the nice photos that she sent to us to show her beautiful highlights.

See-through Lights

Mostly about seeing through the different layers of highlights from our naked eyes. It has multiple depths to it as both the surface and the layer underneath have highlights. More of a 3D highlight as you can see many many tiny streaks of light on different layers of the hair. But despite the complexity of the highlights style, it still blends very well and very comfortable to look at.

Thereafter, we had our money piece highlights last year where we combine our highlights style with the additional money piece style on the fringe. Money piece is the name of the coloring style where the 2 parts of the fringe area is colored. This is not part of highlights but rather an additional add-on.

And last year, we introduced 7 different colors and highlights combination in different styles, all done from our Fruity Color Pigment Mask, which means the ingredients are mostly natural, made from fruits, and containing hair vitamins. Moving on, these are our Japanese Autumn Highlights with 7 different colors.

This time round, we're focusing on the classic style, whether you want it in babylights, thick stripes, or a mixture of both. We can do that. As long as it is part of the highlights style, which means lightened streaks from roots to the end, with a normal darker base color, we can do that and customize your desired highlights whether it is thick or thin. For the highlights

Let's explore a few examples!

This is a lighter Blonde highlights with equal proportion of highlights. You can see the stripes are very equally distributed, giving the highlights plenty of room to shine on their own!

Or if you prefer something that is more blending, or more subtle and natural. We have those too.

You can have thinner babylight streaks, in blue, or red, or in your desired color. Or thick classic ash blonde highlights to showcase the beautiful lines on the hair. Both are good!

We'll attach more examples at the end of the article. Let's move on to the service of the month for June/July 2023. All of the highlights, including the 7 colors above, are included in this promotion (money piece is not included) -
