Five options. One goal: healthy, smooth hair.
Sorted by the hair they suit, not by price. Each card says who it's for, and who it isn't for.
Keratin and Nanoplasty are the same price. The choice between them is about your hair, not your budget.

Express Smoothing
Wow! I hadn’t expected such amazing results on my fine, fluffy, but straight-ish hair, but the Express Hair Smoothing treatment really knocked my socks off.

Premium Keratin
Tania is absolutely amazing! This was my first ever keratin treatment and she tackled my thick African hair effortlessly.

Premium Plex Nanoplasty
Sandra did an amazing job with my nanoplasty. My hair is now so smooth and easy to manage, especially coming from very curly hair. I was worried about maintaining my colour because I have highlights, but the colour turned out beautifully. I’d absolutely recommend Terreamer if you share the same concern.

Ultimate Keratin Plex Fusion
I received a fusion straightening treatment about two weeks ago from Sandra, and could not be happier with the results! My hair was super bleach damaged and frizzy prior to my treatment, and now feels so much healthier and dries straight with no effort at all.

Choosing a treatment
Straight answers to what people ask before they book.
Fusion, at up to 8 months with the right aftercare. Keratin and Plex Nanoplasty last 4–6 months, and Express Smoothing up to 3 months.
How long it lasts depends on your hair's condition and thickness, and above all on your aftercare. The right shampoo can add months, and protecting it from pool and sea water helps too.
Yes. Express Smoothing calms frizz and keeps your natural wave. With the other treatments we adjust to the result you're after, whether that's sleek and straight or smooth with movement.
“I was worried it would be too flat / straight but it isn’t, it’s just nice and smooth, and I can put waves in if I want (5 minute job).”
Usually, yes. Bleached and over-processed hair is treated with our bond-repair options, Plex Nanoplasty or Fusion. Text us a photo and we'll tell you honestly what's possible before you book.
Bleach or lighten before your treatment, not after. Lightening strips the hair and would strip the treatment too. Colour and toner can go on afterwards, done by us or after checking with us.
Yes. It's semi-permanent, so your natural texture gradually returns over the months, with no harsh regrowth line like permanent straightening leaves.
New growth comes in with your natural texture, and the treated lengths slowly soften. Most clients book their next treatment when the frizz starts creeping back.
No. We keep the finish natural, not obviously "done". Men's treatments tame frizz, curl and cowlicks, and cut styling time to a couple of minutes.
Express Smoothing starts from $260, Keratin or Plex Nanoplasty from $340, and Ultimate Fusion from $675 $510 (50% off your 2nd treatment). The consultation is free, so text us a photo for an exact price.
Please check with your doctor first, and follow their advice.
Our formulas are formaldehyde-free, but they haven't been tested specifically in pregnancy, so we can't make a promise either way. We're happy to tell you and your doctor what the main ingredients are. Many clients choose to wait until after pregnancy or breastfeeding.
We're on the ground floor at Shop 2, 456 St Kilda Rd, Melbourne, near South Yarra. We're appointment only, so please book or text us first.
