What is Magic Sleek?
Magic Sleek is similar to a keratin treatment as in it removes frizz, makes the hair shinier and healthier. But, what makes Magic Sleek "different" is that it can permanently straighten the hair or keep curls if you would like while containing volume so it is not pin straight. Also Magic Sleek contains no formaldehyde.
Before I review Magic Sleek, let me give you a little overview on my hair. I have A LOT of very thick wavy/curly hair. It's puffy so I can't even wear it down. It's useless! The only time my hair looks really good is when I get it done at the salon.
So last year, I decided to have the keratin treatment done to my hair before I went on vacation. I did the Cezanne treatment which has no formaldehyde in it. It helped my hair so much, kept it frizz free, decreased the puffyness and volume of my hair a bit, and shortened the amount of time I spent blowdrying my hair which took almost an hour to straighten.
One day I got so sick of my hair that I was just like, you know what, I am going to do Japanese hair straightening. And I was like there has to be some treatment without formaldehyde. My cousin had done the Japanese treatment for a couple of years and she lost hair from it, not in patches just the amount in general. So I was a little scared to do it because I didn't want to ruin my hair. I did research on treatments that would permanently straighten my hair without formaldehyde and came across Magic Sleek on youtube. Magic sleek claims to permanently straighten your hair so you don't have to blow it or flat iron or anything to it but if you want to keep your curls you can. So it all depends on what you want.
Before I had done Magic Sleek at the original salon in NJ, I had:
Cezanne treatment 2x
Magic Sleek at a crappy salon in NY 1x
If you're going to do Magic Sleek at all, I would suggest doing it at the place in NJ which I will link below and here are my reasons why:
☆ You are paying a lot of money for this and want to have it done right
☆ They might lie to you about the process
☆ It's a waste of your time (I was at the salon for 6+ hours)
When I had it done at the crappy salon in NY he was being very cheap with the product, which my hair needs a lot because I have so much, he didn't even give me the Magic Sleek shampoo and conditioner, and he didn't blow dry my hair straight at the end which is what the video on youtube said would happen. It cost about $250.
MY ACTUAL REVIEW OF MAGIC SLEEK:Magic Sleek claims to straighten your hair permanently or allow you to keep your hair curly, frizz free, and shiny. I had Magic Sleek done twice, the first time it went terribly so I decided to go to the owner that created the actual treatment.
Here is how they do the treatment:
(They deleted this video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vtmhp_YxhLU
**UPDATED VIDEO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6g_NsPakFs
I wonder why they deleted the first video since it shows the girls hair coming out straight in the end. (Which didn't happen for me! )
When I had Magic Sleek done I wanted my hair to come out as straight as possible, and I requested that. They said of course it will work don't worry! It will come out straight and you won't even have to use a blowdryer or flat iron or anything. And they said it will last for about 5-6 months.
So, they did exactly what the video shows to my hair.***What I came to realize at the end of the video where they blow the girl's wet hair straight, is that for me, when they did that, all they applied was conditioner and didn't scrub my hair. They didn't use shampoo. Also, the treatment/chemical was still in my hair. SO, when they blowed my hair after naturally and I'm assuming they did the same thing to the girl in the video, is when they just blow dry the hair, of course it's going to come out straight because the chemical is still in the hair. That is why overtime when I would shampoo my hair after the treatment, it just keeps getting wavier/curlier.
Two days later, I took a shower and used the Magic Sleek shampoo and conditioner. I blow dried my hair naturally and it came out basically straight, but had a little wave to it.
The next time I took a shower, I also blew out my hair naturally. It was wavier. And finally the next time I showered and blew my hair out naturally, it came out wavy-curly and required straightening.
I was pretty upset but decided it was better than not having any treatment in my hair to keep it somewhat calm and frizz free.
I wouldn't say Magic Sleek is any different than the Keratin treatment especially the Cezanne treatment that I had done. Magic Sleek is basically a keratin treatment. Yes I know Magic Sleek was created with stuff from the rainforest and sh*t but TBH it's no different. It was SO NOT WORTH THE $600.
Not only that but they promised me my hair would come out perfectly straight and wouldn't be like my previous experience.
I'm not saying Magic Sleek is terrible, but it does NOT promise what it says it will, at least for me the two times I had it done. It was a good "Keratin" treatment but not worth the money or time.

After spending a considerable amount on this product, I expected my hair to be smooth and straight, but it did nothing to tame the frizz. In fact, my hair felt even drier and more damaged after using it. I would not recommend this treatment to anyone.
- Emily - 2 stars - I had high hopes for the Magic sleek post straightening treatment, but unfortunately, it did not live up to my expectations.
