Brazilian straightening is in 2026 THE most-requested hair treatment in Rabat. But faced with the abundance of offers, how to find your way? Our team at OLM Beauty Rabat wrote this guide to help you make the right choice.
What is a Brazilian straightening?
Brazilian straightening is a hair treatment based on keratin and smoothing active ingredients (originally formaldehyde — banned in Europe and boycotted by serious salons like ours). The technique comes from Brazil, hence the name.
It smooths frizzy hair, reduces frizz by 80-95 % and delivers a mirror-like shine. Effect lasts 4 to 6 months.
How much does Brazilian straightening cost in Rabat in 2026?
Prices vary based on length and formula:
| Length | Classic formula | Premium (Black Diamond) |
|---|---|---|
| Short | 800 — 1,100 MAD | 1,800 — 2,000 MAD |
| Medium | 1,100 — 1,500 MAD | 2,000 — 2,300 MAD |
| Long | 1,500 — 1,900 MAD | 2,300 — 2,500 MAD |
Beware of offers below 600 MAD for medium-length hair: the product quality is necessarily poor, even dangerous (illegal formaldehyde).
Formaldehyde-free Brazilian straightening: what you should know
All formulas sold legally in Europe are formaldehyde-free. However, some informal salons in Morocco still use old stocks or smuggled products.
How to verify? Always ask for:
- The brand name used
- The product’s technical sheet
- Compliance with European standards
At OLM Beauty, we work exclusively with Inoar and Black Diamond, premium Brazilian brands compliant with EU norms.
How long does Brazilian straightening last?
4 to 6 months on average. Wear depends mainly on at-home maintenance:
- Sulfate-free shampoo only → +1 month of wear
- Weekly masks → +2 weeks
- Sea water / pool → -1 month of wear
- Too-frequent flat-iron use → -1 month
The 3 mistakes to avoid
1. Washing hair within 72h
The straightening needs to “set” for 3 days. Washing earlier costs 30 to 50 % of the result.
2. Choosing the cheapest
For straightening in Rabat, price directly correlates with product quality. A 500 MAD straightening for long hair CANNOT contain good keratin.
3. Skipping the prior consultation
Not all hair tolerates Brazilian straightening. Bleached ends, history of relaxers, allergies… only an in-salon consultation guarantees a damage-free result.
Our 2026 recommendation
If you’re straightening for the first time, start with a tannin straightening (gentler). If you’re experienced and want the most durable result, invest in a Black Diamond.
