Private label hair smoothing means selling Brazilian smoothing treatments under your own brand. The category goes by many names: keratin, nanoplastia, protein, Brazilian straightening, organic smoothing and hair botox. A strong range picks one hero technology per market, adds a hair botox treatment as a second service and shares a single maintenance line, all 100% formaldehyde-free.
- The names overlap: buyers search by the term their market knows, not by chemistry.
- Keratin, nanoplastia and protein realign or smooth the fibre; hair botox is a deep treatment.
- Choose the hero name by market, then let one maintenance line serve every service.
- All formulas are 100% formaldehyde-free, with or without glyoxylic acid by market.
- 300 litres per SKU makes a full smoothing system possible on the first order.
The smoothing names, decoded
| Name buyers use | What it is | Positioning |
|---|---|---|
| Brazilian keratin | Smoothing with hydrolysed keratin sealed with heat | The most recognised service name |
| Nanoplastia | Acid-based realignment with low-molecular actives | Premium, formaldehyde-free, fibre care |
| Protein smoothing | Smoothing led by proteins and amino acids | Treatment-oriented, strong in the Gulf |
| Brazilian straightening / progressive | Umbrella terms for the smoothing service | Common in retail and distributor catalogues |
| Organic / tannin smoothing | Smoothing positioned on plant-derived actives | Popular in France and Europe |
| Hair botox | Deep reconstruction and frizz control, no full realignment | Fast mid-ticket treatment |
Which name sells in which market
- United States and Canada: Brazilian keratin and formaldehyde-free smoothing are the reference terms.
- Europe and the UK: nanoplastia and formaldehyde-free positioning lead; versions without glyoxylic acid matter.
- France: lissage brésilien, botox capillaire and tannin smoothing carry the category.
- Gulf (Saudi Arabia, UAE): Brazilian protein and hair botox dominate buyer vocabulary.
Naming your product after the term your market searches for shortens the sales conversation. The chemistry can stay the same across regions. See our compliance guide on glyoxylic acid.
Hair botox as a private label product
Hair botox gives salons a second service between smoothing appointments: faster, lower ticket and ideal for clients who do not want a full realignment. As a private label SKU it shares packaging and maintenance with your smoothing line, so it adds revenue without adding complexity. Position it as a treatment, never as a straightening product.
How to build a coherent smoothing range
- Pick one hero smoothing technology per market (keratin, nanoplastia or protein).
- Add a pre-treatment shampoo and a sealing or mask step.
- Add hair botox as the second salon service.
- Share one sulphate-free maintenance line (shampoo, conditioner, serum or oil) across all services.
Each SKU starts at 300 litres. Full Service includes formula, packaging, design, label copy and documents; exclusive formulas and names are protected by NDA. Explore the nanoplastia private label page and the hair straightening private label page.
Results and training
Results are guaranteed when the protocol is followed. Every system comes with a written protocol by hair type (processing time, iron temperature and passes), and we offer technical meetings with our Global Educators for your team and your salons.
Is hair botox the same as smoothing?
No. Hair botox reconstructs and controls frizz without fully realigning the fibre. It works best as a separate treatment next to a smoothing service.
Can I sell the same formula under different names in different markets?
Yes, as long as the labelling and documents fit each market. Many brands keep one base and adapt the name to local search terms.
Are your smoothing formulas formaldehyde-free?
Yes, 100%. We offer versions with and without glyoxylic acid for markets that require it.
What is the minimum order for a private label smoothing line?
300 litres per SKU, open to evaluation by project.
