How the treatment works
The smoothing system used at Asili Hair Care Center temporarily straightens and smooths hair by infusing a unique formula of amino acids, proteins, silk and pearl into the hair’s cuticle. That infusion changes surface texture so light reflects more evenly, producing the intensely smooth, incredibly shiny appearance described by the service details.
Improvement in condition, shine and manageability comes from the formula filling and smoothing the cuticle rather than permanently altering structure. The treatment is intended for short- to medium-term manageability and style longevity; individual results vary by starting texture, previous services, and home care, and are not guaranteed.
What to expect at appointment
Appointments include a consultation and a full service session; Duration: 120 minutes. During that time a stylist assesses hair type and previous chemical services, applies the smoothing system, and completes finishing styling so you can see the result before leaving. The exact steps and timing will be confirmed during your consultation.
Price starts at $400 and will increase based on hair length and density. Asili’s Pikesville location on the Reisterstown Road corridor is convenient for commuters using I-695, and the salon schedules to accommodate busy routines including pre- or post-work appointments for local clients.
Aftercare and maintenance tips
Longevity depends on routine and environment. Mid-Atlantic humidity and seasonal changes common to the Pikesville area influence how long the smooth, shiny effect lasts. Follow your stylist’s aftercare instructions closely—home routine, styling frequency, and product choices will affect how long you enjoy improved manageability.
Many clients book this treatment specifically for easier daily styling and longer-lasting looks; periodic touch-ups maintain the effect. Discuss with your stylist how often to return based on your hair’s length, density, and how you style between visits to maximize value from the service.
