Nanoplasty suits thick hair, afro curls, tight coils and stubborn hormonal waves best, which is what kruLA uses nanoplasty for. This guide covers curly, 4c and grey hair, and how the hair color you already have fits in.
kruLA does nanoplasty in Century City for $220 to $550, by hair length: call (949) 883-8301.
Is nanoplasty good for curly hair?
Yes, if you want the curls straightened: nanoplasty is kruLA's strongest straightening and is used for afro curls and tight coils.
If you want to keep your curls and only cut frizz, hair botox smooths light waves without flattening tight curls.
Do you lose your curls with nanoplasty?
On the length that is treated, yes: the curl pattern is straightened, and your natural curls come back as the treated hair fades and grows out.
What does nanoplasty for curly hair look like before and after?
Curly hair goes from curls to straight, sleek hair without a flat iron; how much movement is left depends on the texture.
Which hair type is best for nanoplasty?
Thick, coarse, tightly curled and frizzy hair gets the most from nanoplasty, which is why kruLA describes it for thick hair, afro curls, tight coils and hormonal waves.
Fine hair or light waves may fit keratin or hair botox better. The specialist decides at the consultation.
Do I regret straightening my natural 4c hair with nanoplasty?
Think of it as a change to your curl pattern for the length that is treated, and decide whether you want that before you book.
If you want the option of your coils back soon, ask about a silk press, where the natural pattern returns after a wash, or hair botox, which does not flatten tight curls.
Can nanoplasty be used on grey hair?
Yes, grey hair can be treated, and the specialist looks at its condition first.
Grey hair is often drier and coarser than pigmented hair, which is part of why people ask to have it smoothed.
Does nanoplasty change hair color?
Nanoplasty is not a hair color, but heat and chemicals can shift the tone slightly in some hair, especially hair that has been lightened or dyed.
Tell the specialist about any past color work at the consultation.
Can you color hair after nanoplasty?
Ask your specialist and your colorist before you book anything, because heat, chemicals and timing interact.
Brands typically give a waiting period around a smoothing treatment, and the timing depends on the product used.
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.

Does nanoplasty work on 4c hair?
Yes: nanoplasty is the strongest straightening kruLA offers and the one for afro curls and tight coils, including 4C hair. The specialist looks at the hair first.
Does nanoplasty damage curls?
Not by itself: damage comes from heat and chemicals on fragile hair, which is why the hair is assessed first. Nanoplasty straightens curls, so the pattern changes in the treated length.
Does nanoplasty damage curly hair?

Yes. Thick hair is one of the hardest textures and the one nanoplasty is meant for. Thickness is measured before the treatment and adds $30 to $90.
Is nanoplastia safe for thin hair?
It can be, after the specialist has checked the hair; thin hair can look flatter once it is sleek. For root volume, ask about BIO keratin.

Yes. Short hair, shoulder length and shorter, is the shortest visit at kruLA: 3 h at $220.
Does nanoplasty work on wavy hair?
Yes, though wavy hair is often smoothed enough by keratin or hair botox, which smooth without straightening as strongly. The consultation ($0) matches the treatment to your hair.
