What is the difference between Unnique Keratin Treatment and other keratin treatments on the market?

Wheat Germ Oil is one of the differences, since this substance has been used for many years to nurture and straighten the hair. Also, the combination and concentration of all ingredients is what makes it more comfortable for the hairdresser. One important thing to mention: some hairdressers may feel that the product is just a little bit “heavier” in comparison with other products. That happens because wheat germ oil is obtained from the embryo or kernel of the wheat grain, and being an unrefined oil, it has a thick consistency, and although the germ of the wheat forms only 3% of the weight of the wheat grain, the wheat germ benefits from the fact that it contains almost 25% of the total proteins, vitamins and minerals of the wheat grain. When you wash your hair the next day, you will realize the amazing benefits and looks of using this product.
