# Smoothening at Plum & Sugar JP Nagar > Straighter, calmer hair for months. Source: https://plumnsugar.com/jp-nagar/smoothening/ Business: Plum & Sugar Salon & Spa, Bengaluru, India · Every day, 9:00am – 10:00pm IST ## At a glance - **Duration:** 2.5–4 hrs - **Best for:** Frizzy, unruly hair wanting real manageability - **Results:** Smooth, straighter hair for 3-5 months - **Experience:** Technical, longer session, dramatic change - **Category:** Hair Treatments - **Available at:** HSR Layout, JP Nagar ## What it is Smoothening relaxes your hair's structure for a straighter, far more manageable finish — this is the treatment to book when frizz control alone isn't enough and you actually want your hair calmer and straighter, not just healthier. It's a real chemical service, priced from ₹15,000, and it's a different goal to our repair-focused treatments like Nano Plastia or Protein Re-filler — those restore health while keeping your natural texture; Smoothening changes the texture itself for a straighter result that holds for three to five months. ## What you get - Genuinely straighter, calmer hair - Holds for 3-5 months - Dramatically reduced daily styling time - A real texture change, not just frizz control ## What this solves The choice between Smoothening and a repair treatment like Nano Plastia comes down to one honest question: do you want straighter hair, or healthier hair in your natural texture? We'll help you answer it before you commit. - Frizz and unruliness that daily styling can't control - Wanting genuinely straighter hair, not just smoother texture - Spending too long blow-drying and straightening every day - Unsure whether Smoothening or a repair treatment is right for you ## How the appointment runs 1. **Hair & Scalp Assessment** — We check your hair's condition and history to confirm Smoothening is the right fit. 2. **Clarify & Prep** — A clarifying wash preps the hair so the treatment processes evenly. 3. **Apply & Process** — The smoothening treatment is applied and processed for the time your hair needs. 4. **Seal & Style** — Heat sealing locks in the straighter result, finished with a full blow-dry. ## Why here - **An honest fit conversation first** — We'll walk you through exactly how Smoothening differs from our repair treatments before you book, so you choose based on the result you actually want. - **Priced and processed properly** — This is a real chemical service, from ₹15,000, given the full processing and sealing time it needs rather than a rushed version. - **Bond protection available** — Power Plex can be added during your Smoothening appointment to protect your hair's bonds while the chemical process happens. ## Aftercare - **Wait 72 hours to wash** — Give the treatment three full days to set before your first wash. - **Switch to sulphate-free** — Sulphates strip Smoothening out far faster than it should fade. - **Avoid tying it up for the first few days** — Keep hair loose right after treatment so the straightened result sets properly. ## FAQ **How is Smoothening different from Nano Plastia?** Smoothening (from ₹15,000) relaxes the hair's structure for a straighter, more manageable finish. Nano Plastia is a separate treatment focused on deep repair and frizz control while keeping more of your natural texture. We'll recommend based on whether you want straighter hair or simply healthier hair. **How long does Smoothening last?** Typically three to five months, depending on your hair type and how you care for it afterwards — sulphate-free shampoo makes a genuine difference to that timeline. **Will my hair look poker-straight and artificial?** It's about manageability rather than a flat, artificial look — we'll discuss the finish you want at consultation rather than defaulting to maximum straightness. **Can I colour my hair around the same time?** Yes, but we leave at least two weeks between colouring and Smoothening so your hair isn't processed twice in one sitting. **Is Smoothening safe for damaged hair?** Badly damaged hair usually needs bond and protein repair first. We'll assess your hair honestly and may recommend a repair treatment before Smoothening if that's what your hair actually needs. ## Related services - [Hair Treatments](https://plumnsugar.com/jp-nagar/hair-treatments/) - [Nano Plastia](https://plumnsugar.com/jp-nagar/nano-plastia/) - [Power Plex](https://plumnsugar.com/jp-nagar/power-plex/) ## Book this service - WhatsApp JP Nagar: https://wa.me/919980033108?text=Hi%2C%20I%27d%20like%20to%20book%20Smoothening%20at%20Plum%20%26%20Sugar%20JP%20Nagar - Call JP Nagar: 099800 33108 — `tel:+919980033108` - Pricing is quoted at a free consultation: https://plumnsugar.com/pricing/ Also offered at **HSR Layout**: https://plumnsugar.com/hsr-layout/smoothening/ --- ## Booking - **HSR Layout** — 1655, 27th Main Rd, opp. NIFT College, nearby SBI Building, Parangi Palaya, 1st Sector, HSR Layout, Bengaluru — 560102 · 097400 28719 · WhatsApp: https://wa.me/919740028719?text=Hi%2C%20I%27d%20like%20to%20book%20an%20appointment%20at%20Plum%20%26%20Sugar%20HSR%20Layout - **JP Nagar** — 87, 3rd Main Rd, near M K Ahemad Supermarket, JP Nagar 4th Phase, Dollars Colony, Bengaluru — 560078 · 099800 33108 · WhatsApp: https://wa.me/919980033108?text=Hi%2C%20I%27d%20like%20to%20book%20an%20appointment%20at%20Plum%20%26%20Sugar%20JP%20Nagar Appointments are made by phone or WhatsApp; there is no online booking form.
