Damanci Empowering Keratin Treatment is an extra-strength, professional smoothing and straightening system for stylists seeking predictable, long-wear frizz control across diverse hair types.
Powered by a heat-activated formaldehyde system, it locks hair into a sleeker alignment while hydrolyzed keratin and proteins support the cuticle for a smoother feel and improved manageability. A balanced blend of silicones and emollients creates a glossy, reflective finish, and cationic conditioners help detangle and reduce static. Botanical extracts and humectants contribute to a conditioned, well-cared-for feel throughout the service.
Add this treatment to your smoothing menu to deliver durable, high-gloss control with a predictable, pro-friendly workflow.
