Keratin Treatment on Bleached Hair in San Francisco
At iHairbook, keratin treatment on bleached hair is planned with care and a clear eye on your color. Our salon at 2019 Balboa St in San Francisco’s Richmond District has focused on smoothing services since 2009, with more than 3,000 treatments completed under owner Will L. We look at your texture, your tone and the finish you want before we recommend a service, so the result is smooth, luminous and true to your color.
Can you do keratin treatment on bleached hair?
Yes. We smooth lightened hair with a plan built around your texture and current tone. We begin with a consultation and choose the approach that suits your hair. The appointment takes about 2 hours or less depending on the hair. Results last 3 to 4 months depending on hair texture, and your first wash is 48 to 72 hours after the appointment.
Keratin treatment on blonde hair
Blonde hair can look beautifully polished with a smoothing service tailored to its tone. A blonde keratin treatment at iHairbook is planned around your current shade, your highlights and the softness you want to see. We keep the focus on shine, movement and a finish that feels natural and fluid.
Can you bleach hair after keratin treatment?
We plan lightening before smoothing. At iHairbook, we always color and highlight first and keratin after, so lightening belongs in the earlier planning stage. If you are considering a new blonde tone, share that at booking so the full plan can be arranged in the right order.
Keratin treatment before or after color
Color first is our preferred order. We color and highlight first, then finish with keratin, so the smoothing service is the final step of your appointment plan. Our treatment will not fade or change your color, so your shade stays true while the surface turns smooth and glossy.
Can I color my hair before a keratin treatment?
Yes, coloring before a keratin treatment is the sequence we recommend. Your color or highlights settle first, then the smoothing service brings a soft, polished finish. This order lets us focus on both tone and texture in one calm plan.
Can I dye my hair after a keratin treatment?
Yes, it can be planned. When services are arranged together, we prefer to color first and finish with keratin. If you already have a keratin service and are thinking about color, speak with us before booking so the timing and the look can be mapped out with care.
Keratin treatment on color treated hair
Color treated hair can be a lovely match for this service. Hair color and keratin treatment work together when the order is right, and our salon always places color and highlights first. Our treatment will not fade or change your color, so the result is smooth, shiny and true to your chosen shade.
Does keratin change hair color?
Your color stays as intended. Our treatment will not fade or change your color. We plan color and highlights first, then apply keratin as the finishing step, so your tone remains true while the hair gains a smoother surface, soft reflection and a polished finish.
Can I do highlights after keratin treatment?
We prefer to do highlights first, then keratin. Our salon always colors and highlights first and applies keratin after, which keeps the smoothing service as the final layer of the appointment. Share your highlight goals when you book so the full plan can be arranged in one clear sequence.
Hair dye with keratin treatment
It is a coordinated service with one clear plan. For keratin treatment after coloring hair, the timing is straightforward: color first, then smoothing. We discuss your shade, your highlights and your texture goals together so the finished result feels balanced and refined.

A refined finish for keratin treatment on bleached hair

Will is awesome! I’ve wanted straight hair that stayed straight since I was a little girl, and he’s done just that. My hair is the straightest it’s ever been, and I’m so excited about the results. I highly recommend Will! Super professional and comfortable experience.

I just had my third Organic Keratin treatment with Will this past week. My last treatment was late April, so it lasted for four months. I have extremely frizzy/curly hair and I can’t believe how smooth my hair is. Blow drying it is a snap – it takes about 5 minutes vs. 30+ trying to straighten it myself, and still having the frizz. I love the location – I get there about 30 minutes early so I don’t have to stress about parking since it’s surrounded by apartments and homes. The last two times I found parking right away and took a nice walk before my appointment. I drive up from Los Altos, and it’s totally worth the trip up to SF. I haven’t found anyone down in the South Bay who does such an amazing job as Will.

I’ve had a great experience with Will at iHairbook. I have very thick hair and was especially impressed by how little time the keratin treatment took. In the past, I avoided straightening treatments because they made my hair too flat, but Will’s technique leaves my hair smooth and shiny while still keeping some of its natural waves and body. I also followed his post-treatment advice, and my results lasted 4 months. Will is friendly, knowledgeable, and I would definitely recommend him if you want smoother hair without losing all of your natural texture!

Will is amazing. His skills are impeccable. I am so happy with my hair and my experience. I traveled an hour to be serviced by him and I will be doing it again. He went above and beyond by helping me fix a haircut done poorly by another salon and he was a wonderful conversationalist. He is also so fast!! He did my nanoplasty and the cut in just 2 hours. I highly recommend him.

I had a keratin treatment here with Will and it was excellent!! He was meticulous from start to finish and the result looks amazing-- smooth, healthy hair and no more frizz (my natural hair is wavy/curl pattern with lots of frizz and fairly thick). It's been about 2 weeks since my treatment and I love how it turned out! Highly recommend. Will's studio is also very cute and clean, and he is so pleasant to talk to while getting your hair done. I'll definitely be coming back here for my next keratin treatment!
