How Does Silk Press Work?
Hair is deeply cleansed with a clarifying shampoo to remove any product build up. Depending on the condition of the hair, stylists can either perform a steam treatment or cap treatment with heat from a hooded dryer. Next, a nourishing heat protectant is applied and the hair is blow dried smooth. The final step is using a flat iron to straighten the hair.
The health and integrity of your hair is very important to us. If your hair is dry, brittle or damaged as a result of previous chemical treatments or from overusing heated styling tools, we may suggest you have a series of conditioning treatments before exposing it to additional heat. We have custom blended afro hair treatments for scalp conditions, strengthening hair, moisture injections and protein treatments to revitalise natural afro curly hair. Chat with your Afrotherapy stylist who will happily suggest the most suitable treatment for your particular concern.

Is Silk Press The Same As a Relaxer?
No. A silk press service is not the same as a relaxer as there are no long-term changes to your unique curl pattern. Relaxers and keratin treatments use chemicals to permanently alter the structure of the hair. Silk press uses no chemicals meaning you can easily return to your original hair pattern. If you’re looking for a temporary, chemical-free way to straighten your hair, then opt for the silk press.
We do offer a range of professional relaxer treatments at Afrotherapy to straighten afro hair, smooth textured curls, or reduce frizz, that deliver exceptional results every time. Our talented team of specialist afro & textured hairdressers in Edmonton, London, are experts at creating smoother styles for multi-textured and afro hair.

Chances are you have heard the terms “silk press” and “flat irons” but which is better? The main difference is the techniques and tools used. A flat iron is basically a heated tool used to make your hair smooth and straight whilst a silk press treatment uses specially designed products and tools including a flat iron and comb for a silkier longer lasting result.
Both techniques, if done correctly, produce fantastic results and can be done on all hair textures. The advantage of a silk press treatment compared to a traditional blowout is that it lasts longer. A professional blow dry will last a few days while a silk press treatment, with care, can last up to 3 weeks.

To achieve longevity it is important to make sure that the hair is protected from humidity and water as much as possible. Wear a cap while showering and wrap hair in a silk head scarf at bedtime to keep volume and movement in the hair. You can also give your hair the VIP treatment by investing in a silk pillowcase. Cotton can snag the hair and cause unwanted breakage.
