If you live in MetroWest, Dr. Phillips or anywhere around Orlando, you know what Florida humidity does to hair. Two of the most-asked-about smoothing services at de Payölle are Nanoplastia and our formaldehyde-free keratin. Here is a friendly, straightforward comparison — including how both differ from traditional keratin made with formaldehyde.
Quick answer
Nanoplastia is a formaldehyde-free treatment that smooths and treats the hair with amino acids and proteins, lasting from 4 months up to a year. Our keratin is also formaldehyde-free and is priced the same. Both differ from traditional keratin treatments that use formaldehyde. Every service starts with a free consultation, so we can recommend the right fit for your hair.
What is Nanoplastia?
- Formaldehyde-free — no fumes.
- Amino acids and proteins are infused into the cortex, then heat seals the cuticle without breaking bonds.
- It doesn’t permanently change your natural texture — it fades gradually.
- You choose the finish: ultra-straight, naturally smooth, or defined frizz-free curls.
- Lasts from 4 months up to a year.
- Done in one stage, in about 2–4 hours depending on length.
- You can wash your hair right away, and you can still style and curl it.
- It is CPNP-compliant and FDA-registered, and our team is certified in it.
What makes our keratin different from traditional keratin?
Short answer: our keratin is formaldehyde-free; traditional keratin treatments use formaldehyde.
Many people hear “keratin” and picture the classic treatment made with formaldehyde, with strong fumes in the salon. At de Payölle, both of our smoothing options — Nanoplastia and keratin — are formaldehyde-free.
How is Nanoplastia different from traditional keratin with formaldehyde?
Short answer: Nanoplastia keeps your root volume, doesn’t make hair look greasy, and lets you style, tie a ponytail and curl right away. With traditional keratin with formaldehyde, you can’t.
- Root volume: Nanoplastia doesn’t flatten your roots, while traditional keratin with formaldehyde often does.
- No greasy look: hair stays light and fresh after Nanoplastia.
- Freedom right after: with Nanoplastia you can style, tie a ponytail and curl right away. With traditional keratin with formaldehyde, you have to wait.
