It’s work
"My client loved it. She have a curly hair and wants to control the frizzy hair."
— Wafa O. (5/5)
Price change
"great products love it, but considering other options now that the price has increased for PBO."
— Cali (4/5)
Product=5, ridiculous purchasing situation=1
"I think it's time to start listening to your stylists. I adore PBO and have been using it for years but I have been searching for another brand of keratin since you jacked up the price to $700 essentially to sell the mask. Anyone who has done the training and is certified knows they need all the products for best results. I don't think you understand how much product it takes to properly do this treatment on someone with very long, coarse and thick type 4 hair. Not only that, 80% of my clients don't even wash their own hair, they come into the salon every 1 - 2 weeks so I'm the one who's mostly using the mask on my backbar because I refuse to purchase the large mask now with so much extra in stock which feels like a waste opening up those little bottles. I also now have an excess of Shampoo as well, even being generous and shampooing at least 3 times per client during keratin sessions, even with, again, very long, thick, coarse hair clients. It was already hard shelling out the $350 it was to buy the product back in the day, but now it's just insane. You can only charge so much for a treatment, especially one that is semi permanent. With the product cost along with the wear and tear on my body doing this treatment, it has come to either not offering it or finding a product with similar if not better results for a fraction of the cost. The last thing holding me back is the care I have for my clients hair. After Pravana perfection stopped selling their keratin, I did about 3 months of trials with NKST, PBO and then KC max when it first came out( which I hate!!) to finally decide PBO is the one that is going to be best for my clients hair and give them the results they have come to expect. I find it very interesting that all the other KC lines can be purchased alone or with just the shampoo, yet this is the only one that forces you to purchase the whole kit. If you are gonna force a kit on stylists, you should just have the shampoo and a 32 oz mask in it for their back bar, instead of all those retail bottles, or just offer some sort of retail bundle . I include the shampoo conditioner and mask in my pricing and would totally appreciate a retail bundle separately, but when I need a bottle of PBO, there is absolutely no reason why I can't just purchase a bottle of that alone!! The product is a 5 but this unnecessary situation you have created is a 1! We are licensed professionals and should be treated as such! Thank you for your time and consideration!"

Not impressed
"I was disappointed in this treatment. It turned my platinum blonde, mustard yellow. Also, I feel it has left their hair very damaged per following the instructions."
— C (1/5)

Good product not understanding the price increase
"WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PRICE? 700$ ??? Can you offer a in between size?"
— Amber (4/5)
I wanted just the solution and it’s way over price
"Don’t like that you have to be force to buy the whole product. And it’s way over priced."
— Anna S. (1/5)
Disappointed
"It’s incredibly disappointing that the of 16oz bottle for the PBO is no longer an option. With a shelf life(after opening) of 12 months, this makes it incredibly difficult for a large demographic of independent stylists. How can the only options be 4oz that can’t be bought on its own? Basically a tester option, with leftover other products every time, and excess package that is a pain to get rid of. And over 8x that much at 33.8oz? That price point is incredibly steep for your average independent stylist, not to mention it’s far more product than I can use before it expires. Especially with the cost of overhead getting higher and higher, budgeting that $700 for a liter of product is tough when this is not the primary source of our income behind the chair. I’ve been certified, and used Keratin Complex since its launch in 2007 but I’m unfortunately looking elsewhere for an alternative."
