The question is very different if you decided to apply the Brazilian Blowout in the salon and it didn’t work. In that case, the salon has to take responsibility for what happened.
Why?
A hairdresser knows in advance if Brazilian Blowout will work on your hair according to its characteristics and needs. And if this treatment isn’t suitable for your hair, she’ll suggest other treatments.
A hairdresser will also know you should wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo before applying Brazilian Blowout. Also, how the treatment liquid should be applied and what’s the right temperature to seal it.
Therefore, it’s very unlikely that Brazilian Blowout won’t work if you apply it at a salon. But if this is your case, demand a solution. It’s your right.
But, I guess if you’re here, your problem is that you applied Brazilian Blowout at home, and it didn’t work. And here you are, desperate and trying to understand what happened.
Let’s move from despair to action and find out together what happened.
If Brazilian Blowout didn’t work, it probably wasn’t suitable for your hair type
Yes, just as you read it.
- Is your hair very frizzy?
- Does your hair naturally have frizz?
- Do you have tight curls or afro hair?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, we found the problem. Brazilian Blowout wasn’t right for your hair, and that’s why it didn’t work.
- Frizzy and dry hair shouldn’t be treated with Brazilian Blowout because the heat from the iron will do more damage to it. In this case, your hair needs cold keratin treatments or a deep repair treatment like Olaplex.
- If your hair has tight curls or is afro and you wanted to straighten your hair with Brazilian Blowout, you should do it at a salon because your hair needs extra strong straightening.
you should wait two weeks and apply a deep moisturizing treatment at a salon. You could try Olaplex or Wellaplex. This way, your hair will recover the moisture it lost during the Brazilian Blowout application.
If Brazilian Blowout didn’t work, you probably didn’t leave it on long enough
Brazilian Blowout works for 45 minutes, and this is one of the most important instructions from the manufacturer. If you don’t respect it, it doesn’t work.You shouldn’t remove the product twenty minutes after applying it because you’ve run out of patience. Alternatively, you shouldn’t leave it on for sixty minutes because you forgot about it.
- If you leave it on for less than 45 minutes, the product won’ reach the innermost layer of the hair and your hair won’t absorb.

If Brazilian Blowout didn’t work because you didn’t respect the exposure times, you must wait three months to reapply it.
If Brazilian Blowout didn’t work, you may have used the iron at the wrong temperature
The sealing process with the flat iron is the main step in applying Brazilian Blowout.
The Brazilian Blowout liquid is thermo-reactive and expands with heat. Therefore, it’s essential to use the flat iron at a temperature of 450° F or 232 °C (450° F or 232 °C) once the liquid has been working for 45 minutes.
The heat from the flat iron seals the treatment by filling the empty spaces inside the hair with protein. And that’s what makes Brazilian Blowout work by repairing the hair and eliminating frizz.
My advice, in this case, is to ask for an appointment at a salon to have a professional finish sealing the treatment with a professional flat
Conclusions
If you applied Brazilian Blowout to your hair, now you know why it didn’t work. As a professional hairdresser, I recommend you don’t try it again. Instead, ask for an appointment at a salon. You’ll save time and money, and most importantly, won’t damage your hair.
