Tip: Comb the hair periodically to remove any tangles and to achieve a smooth, straight surface. (It’s important to see that the hair is dampened by the Perfection SmoothOut Solution and fully saturated but not overly saturated.)

8. When the hair is almost dry, turn on your flat iron and set the temperature to 360 degrees Fahrenheit. Before ironing, check to see that the hair is dry enough so that when the flat iron is placed on the hair it steams but doesn’t sizzle. Taking ¼” partings, iron the hair until steam stops being emitted and the hair has a smooth, shiny finish. This will typically take 4-5 passes with the iron on each parting.

9. While the hair will now be smooth and straight, it may exhibit a slight residue. At this point the actual service is complete. However, if the client wants to leave the salon with an absolutely finished look and feel, allow the hair to cool for 15 minutes. Shampoo the hair one time using Perfection Smoothing Sulfate-Free Shampoo. Dry and finish as desired.

Clients can shampoo and or receive hair color services immediately following the Perfection SmoothOut TM Service.
