A keratin treatment is  a process that smooths and straightens hair, it can also be referred to as a Brazilian blow out. It involves applying products to the hair, blow-drying it, and sealing it with straighteners. Keratin is a natural type of protein that can be found in your skin, hair, and nails. The keratin seals the hair cuticle with a coating of protein that eliminates frizz, and adds softness and shine. The process can take anywhere between 1 and 3 hours depending on hair type, length, and fullness.
