What Are The Dangers of Brazilian Blowout?

If you are thinking of Brazilian blowout dangers then you are not completely wrong. Below are some of the disadvantages of the Brazilian blowout.

• The treatment is rather expensive. You may be struggling with your hair, but $120 to $300 is a hefty price to pay for a temporary process. If you purchase follow-up products, that’s even more money out of your pocket
• Salons that use too much heat or use heat irresponsibly when flat ironing your hair can leave you with heat damage
• Many solutions used by salons that perform the Brazilian Blowout have traces of formaldehyde in them –and formaldehyde has long been linked to cancer.Some salons do boast formaldehyde-free processes, but this is a big factor to consider if you’re worried about the health risks.
