Frizz, Be Gone! Why Smoothing Treatments Are the Real Secret to Effortless Hair

Let’s be honest.

Frizz has a special way of showing up exactly when you don’t want it — in holiday photos, right after you style your hair, or the second you step outside into cold Utah air. And winter? Winter is the queen of static, flyaways, and puffiness.

But before you start stocking up on random oils and creams, there’s something your stylist really wants you to know:

You don’t have to fight your hair.

You just need the right smoothing treatment.

And yes… we’re talking about the Brazilian Blowout.

“Wait… isn’t that the thing that makes your hair super straight?”

No, that has never been true! Brazilian blow out isn't a hair relaxer or straightener.  

The Brazilian Blowout has alot to offer you and is more about smoothing + shine than turning your hair into a flat sheet of paper. When we say smoothing we are talking about the overall texture of the hair.

Think:

  • soft movement
  • reduced frizz
  • faster drying & styling
  • hair that behaves even when the humidity (or dryness) is working against you

Honestly, most of our guests say the same thing after their first one:

“I had no idea my hair could feel & look like this.”

Let’s Talk About What Actually Happens in the Chair

If you’re new to smoothing, the process might sound intense… but it’s actually pretty relaxing.

Here’s the real version (the one we’d tell you while mixing color in the back):

We deep clean your hair

so the treatment can actually do its thing.

We apply the smoothing formula

section by section, with care — no rushing.

We blow-dry

and yes, your hair already starts looking smoother at this stage.

We seal it in with heat

which is where the shine comes from.

We rinse and style

and this is the moment your stylist hands you the mirror and waits for your reaction.

Spoiler:

Most of the time it’s a mix of “wait what?” and “why didn’t I try this sooner?”

How Long It Lasts (And What You Can Expect)

You can enjoy your Brazilian Blowout for around 10–12 weeks, sometimes even longer depending on how often you shampoo and what products you use. We recommend using the Brazilian Blowout products to prevent rinsing your blowout down the drain!

Your stylist will tell you exactly what your hair needs — we don’t gatekeep good products here.

So… Who Is This Actually For?

Here’s the simple version:

If your hair gets frizzy, puffy, dry, tangled, big, unpredictable, or just plain tiring to style — this treatment was basically created for you.

Some guests want it for smooth ponytails.

Some want to keep their waves but lose the fuzz.

Some are tired of spending 30 minutes blow-drying every morning.

A few stylist opinions we hear often:

“It makes your natural texture look intentional instead of chaotic.”

“It gives people back time in their day. That’s why I love doing it.”

Why Winter Is the Perfect Time to Get One

Dry air is rough on hair.

Heat styling becomes more frequent.

And the static? Unforgiving.

A smoothing treatment right before winter hits means:

- easier styling during the busiest months

- better protection against dryness

- fewer flyaways in holiday photos

- hair that stays polished instead of puffy, do we even need to mention ski helmet hair?

Think of it as setting your hair up for success before the cold gets rude.

Thinking About It? Here’s What We Recommend.

Start with a consultation — not because the treatment is complicated, but because your hair deserves a personalized plan.

At Amanda Moncur Salon, we’ll look at your texture, density, daily routine, and goals to make sure you get results you’ll actually love.

If your mornings could use a little peace…

If your hair feels unmanageable lately…

If winter already has you on edge…

This is your sign.
