The treatment I received is the Aadya’s Keratin service. Essentially, it involves applying a solution with high concentrations of keratin to twice-washed hair. The keratin seeps down into hair’s pores and is heat-sealed with a flat iron, leaving you with smooth, straight tresses. The downside? This specific treatment is only available at Goldwell salons, so you’ll have to do your research.

There are two components to the treatment. The first eliminates the frizz (this is called the Shape Medium), and there are two options for the second component: You can either eliminate curls completely (Smooth Intense) or just tame the wave/curl (Smooth Medium).

Once you select the second option, it is mixed in equal parts with the Shape Medium and applied to the hair. If you want to keep a slight curl, opt for the Smooth Medium to keep some of your waves intact. I received the Shape Medium/Smooth Intense treatment.
