Keratin vs Nanoplasty: Understanding the Differences
At Aesthete Hair Salon in Bondi, we are your local hair straightening specialists and offer two popular hair Keratin treatments: Alphaparf and Nanoplasty. While both are designed to transform your hair by making it smoother and more manageable, they work in different ways and are suited for different hair types. Let’s explore what sets these treatments apart.
What is Keratin Treatment?
Keratin is a protein that naturally occurs in your hair, and a Keratin treatment focuses on replenishing this protein. This treatment is ideal for clients who struggle with frizz, unmanageable hair, or chemically damaged hair breakage. The formula we use contains antioxidants, vitamins, and fatty acids that nourish your hair, making it softer, more manageable and stronger blowing the hair grow 30%. longer beyond its natural breakpoint
Key Benefits:
- Innovative Keratin Technology: The kera-collagen complex, featuring hydrolyzed keratin and quaternized collagen, provides deep conditioning and a noticeable straightening effect.

Which Treatment Should You Choose?
Both treatments offer fantastic results, but your choice depends on your hair’s thickness, condition and your desired outcome. If you have fine or medium-density hair want to repair, nourish and smooth hair, keratin treatment is your best option. On the other hand, if you have medium-density, thick or coarse hair looking for long-lasting straightening, nanoplasty is the way to go—provided your hair is healthy enough for the treatment.
