What qualifications/background should I look for when determining if a hair stylist has undertaken adequate training to perform Japanese hair straightening or thermal reconditioning?
A. First, the stylist needs to be a licensed cosmetologist. Second, the stylist should have been educated by at least one out of two global leaders/providers of permanent Japanese hair straightening technology. These include: Yuko System and Liscio Thermal Reconditioning. Caveat: various companies have developed inferior “copies” of the “Major-2” systems hoping to capture the “lower-end” market share. Rest assured that a percentage of salons will embrace this option. Again, I have been trained by both systems in order to provide my clients with optimal education, service and results. As of Jan 2008 I have successfully performed over 1220 straightening procedures.
