What nanoplasty is, what's in it & how the appointment goes

Very long dark hair, mirror-sleek after nanoplasty

Nanoplasty is a smoothing treatment that makes hair straight, sleek and less frizzy. At kruLA nanoplasty is the most powerful straightening on the menu and the appointment takes 3 h to 4 h. This guide covers what it is, what is in it and how the appointment goes.

kruLA does nanoplasty in Century City for $220 to $550, by hair length: call (949) 883-8301.

What is nanoplasty?

Nanoplasty, also written nanoplastia, is a salon hair-smoothing treatment that straightens the hair and cuts frizz; kruLA lists it as Nanoplasty (Amino Acid Smoothing).

kruLA uses it for the hardest textures: thick hair, afro curls, tight coils and stubborn hormonal waves. The aim is pin-straight, sleek hair without a flat iron.

How does a nanoplasty appointment go?

At kruLA the visit takes 3 h to 4 h, depending on hair length and thickness, and thickness is measured before the treatment starts.

A smoothing appointment typically runs in this order, although the exact steps depend on the product:

  • The specialist looks at the hair and measures its thickness.
  • The hair is washed and prepared for the product.
  • The product is applied section by section and left to work.
  • The hair is dried and sealed with heat, then finished.

What is in nanoplasty?

The ingredients depend on the brand of the product, so the product's label and safety data sheet are the place to read them rather than one universal recipe.

Nanoplasty formulas are generally described as amino-acid based, which is what the amino acid smoothing on kruLA's price list refers to, with other conditioning and smoothing ingredients. Ask the specialist for the product name and its ingredient list at the consultation.

Does hair become straight after nanoplasty?

Yes: the aim of nanoplasty is pin-straight, sleek hair, and it is the strongest straightening kruLA offers.

How straight your hair ends up depends on its texture and thickness, and the specialist tells you what to expect for your hair at the consultation.

Does nanoplasty make your hair flat?

Straight hair can have less lift at the roots than curly hair, but straight does not have to mean flat.

If keeping volume at the root matters to you, say so at the consultation. kruLA's keratin treatment is BIO keratin, described as keeping natural root volume with no flat, slick look.

Does nanoplasty stop frizzy hair?

Reducing frizz is the main job of a smoothing treatment, and nanoplasty is aimed at it.

The result is sleek, manageable hair that does not need a flat iron every morning. If frizz is your only concern and you like your waves, hair botox smooths without straightening tight curls.

Does nanoplasty fix damaged hair?

Nanoplasty smooths hair; it is not a repair treatment, and very damaged hair may need repair first.

Smoothing makes damaged hair look and feel more even, but split ends stay split. Hair dusting removes them without losing length, and hair reconstruction combines collagen repair with straightening in one visit.

What are the benefits of nanoplasty?

The benefits are straight, sleek, shiny hair, less frizz and a shorter morning routine.

  • Straightening without a daily flat iron.
  • Works on thick hair, afro curls and tight coils.
  • Hair that brushes through easily.

How do I prepare for nanoplasty?

Tell the specialist everything that has been done to your hair, and arrive with the hair as it normally is.

Mention past relaxers, bleaching, other smoothing treatments and any scalp sensitivity. If you are unsure whether nanoplasty is the right choice, the consultation comes first: $0, 20 min.

What drives the price of nanoplasty?

Hair length and hair thickness set the price: at kruLA nanoplasty runs from $220 for shoulder length and shorter to $550 for butt length and longer, and high density adds $30 to $90.

Thickness is measured before the treatment, and the session takes 3 h to 4 h depending on length. Every length step is on the prices page, and the nanoplasty page has the booking button.
