Each Thursday, Body+Soul digital editor Alison Izzo (who, by her own admission, is no beauty

experience speaking to experts) get together to try and crack the everyday beauty problems that

plague us all.

 

The treatments:

Goldwell Kerasilk Keratin Smoothing Treatment, $250 - $450 depending on your hair type and salon. Find more information and a salon near you here.
