Keratin Protein Treatment 250ml: Stylist's Guide to Step 2
If you already own a clarifying shampoo and keratin mask — or you are a stylist buying in bulk — this is the only part of the system you actually need to restock.
The Jason Makki Keratin Protein Treatment is the active Step 2 cream from the complete keratin kit, sold as a 250ml standalone bottle for professionals, salon owners, and at-home users who already have the other steps. One bottle covers 3–10 heads depending on hair length.
Who buys the standalone keratin cream?
- Salon professionals and barbers using Jason Makki products on clients — bulk pricing per application
- At-home users restocking after a complete kit application
- Experienced users who already own a clarifying shampoo and keratin mask
If this is your first keratin treatment, buy the complete 3-step kit instead — cheaper per application than buying separately.

Jason uses the Step 2 keratin cream on a client with naturally curly hair — the transformation is one of his most-watched videos:
How to apply the keratin cream correctly
- Pre-wash twice with a clarifying shampoo. Towel dry until damp (not dripping).
- Section the hair into 4 quadrants. Use clips or hair ties.
- Apply the keratin cream starting from the back, working section by section with a fine-tooth comb. Stay 1cm from the scalp.
- Leave for 30 minutes. Do not rinse. The hair should feel saturated but not dripping.
- Blow-dry completely on low heat with a round brush, directing hair downward.
- Flat iron at 200–220°C. Section into 1cm slices and pass the iron 7–10 times per section. This step bonds the keratin — do not shortcut it.
- Rinse with cool water. Apply a keratin mask to seal.
Professional notes
- 100% formaldehyde-free. No fumes during the ironing step — safe for salon work without specialised ventilation.
- Vegan keratin. Sourced from hydrolyzed wheat amino acids, not animal hooves or feathers.
- No harsh chemical smell. Clients tolerate the 30-minute wait better than other brands.
- Safe on colour-treated, bleached, and white hair.
- Formulated in Germany. JASON MAKKI GMBH compliance for EU cosmetic standards.
Coverage per bottle
- Short men's hair: 8–10 applications per 250ml

- Long/thick hair: 2–3 applications per 250ml
Frequently Asked Questions
What temperature does the flat iron need to reach?
200°C minimum, 220°C ideal. Below 200°C, the keratin will not fully bond and results will fade in weeks instead of months. The Jason Makki Ceramic Hair Straightener hits 230°C and is designed exactly for this.
Can I use this product on children?
Not recommended under 16. Children's hair is still developing and chemical processing of any kind is better delayed.
Will it work on afro-textured hair (type 4)?
Yes, with the understanding that keratin relaxes texture by 30–80% depending on hair type. Type 4 curls will loosen to type 2–3 waves rather than becoming pin-straight. For pin-straight permanent results, a chemical relaxer is a different (and more damaging) process.
How long does one open bottle last unopened and opened?
24 months unopened. 12 months opened. Store cool and dry.
