“The Best Japanese Straightening System”
Shiseido Crystallizing/Liscio Japanese Hair Straightening
Liscio/Shiseido Crystallizing Japanese Hair Straightening is an innovative new technique from Japan to make frizzy, curly or wavy hair completely straight while preserving the hair’s health. In the past, people were concerned that if they straightened their hair, they would damage it significantly, and this was true. It is not true any more. Hair can be straightened much more effectively with the Japanese Liscio /Shiseido Crystallizing techniques with much less damage to the hair.
Japanese Hair Straightening typically will improve the hair’s feel, softness and shine while making it more manageable!
What is Japanese Hair Straightening and its History?
The first question we are usually asked about Japanese Hair Straightening (also called Thermal Reconditioning) is “Why do the Japanese need to have their Hair Straightened? They already have straight hair!” Actually this is just not true. Many Japanese have wavy or kinky hair.
Shiseido Crystallizing & LISCIO by Milbon “The Best Japanese Straightening Systems”
Milbon introduced Liscio in Japan on 1996 to satisfy the Japanese peoples desire to have completely straight hair. Unlike existing relaxers with active ingredients based on Hydroxide and lye, thio-based Liscio is gentler for the hair thereby straightening the hair while leaving it in great condition. Milbon was the first manufacturer to receive Japanese governmental approval for its unique thermal reconditioning system. Liscio contains a specially formulated solution and iron, which protects and repairs hair from heat damage.In 1998 Liscio was introduced to the North American Marketplace and has developed the product and procedure even further to enable the process to be performed on just about any client that walks through the salon door. With added protein treatments and supporting products for the thermal reconditioning procedure, it is not uncommon to hear clients proclaim that their hair condition actually has improved after the procedure. Aoi Beauty Studio is confident that our line of products and Japanese original techniques will meet your desire to have beautiful straight hair.
