The Science of Sleek

Keratin Complex Hair Therapy

Ah, fiendish formaldehyde.

Its foul fumes followed you through hallowed high school halls long after a (forged) parental note failed to free you from facing another frog fatality. Then you got fired up about hair smoothing treatments from Brazil — but your pungent foe lingered in the air, frightening away would-be admirers.

Fret not, frazzlette. Let coiffure high-fliers at Michele Coulter Salon and Stan Milton Oasis foil your frizz with ecofriendly Keratin Complex Hair Therapy from Coppola. (Peter, not Francis Ford.)

Unlike its carcinogenic cousin, Keratin Complex thermally infuses much-needed keratin into the hair shaft without harsh chemicals. How does it work? Patented polymerization processes and a lack o’ effluents.

You may have skipped that day in Chem 101, but you don’t have to be a lab rat to know that healthy hair should never make you croak.

Available at Michele Coulter Salon, 3005 Peachtree Road, Buckhead (404-261-0404); Stan Milton Oasis, 260 Pharr Road, Buckhead (404-233-6242).
