Choosing between QIQI Vega and nanoplasty? Start with the exact product and the result you want. A treatment name alone won't tell you whether it suits your colour history, hair condition or curl goals. At Hair Pinns, you can discuss those details before booking a Straight Up Smoothing service.

What QIQI says about its current system
QIQI describes its current Hair Controller as a professional texture-changing system. Its guidance says some results can be permanent and cautions against use on excessively damaged hair that cannot tolerate the process. Ask which formula is being used and what that means for your own hair. Read the manufacturer’s guidance.
02 /
Compare the actual nanoplasty product
Ask for the brand, product name and written instructions. Don't assume every treatment sold as nanoplasty has the same ingredients, waiting period or finish. A fair comparison needs the actual formula on each side; this article does not rank unnamed products as safer or more damaging.

Four questions for your consultation
1. Do you want less frizz, a looser wave or a straighter finish? 2. What colour, bleach, henna or straightening treatments have you had? 3. What happens as your natural hair grows? 4. What care, colour appointments and maintenance will you need afterwards? Bring your recent product and treatment history. Ask whether a strand assessment is appropriate before committing.

Colour, pregnancy and suitability
QIQI notes that artificial colour can shift and recommends medical advice before treatment during pregnancy or nursing. These are reasons to discuss your circumstances, not to promise universal suitability. Follow the instructions for the exact product being used. See QIQI’s product FAQ.

Check the current service and inclusions
See the mid-length service or long/thick service for current booking details. Confirm your quote, inclusions and aftercare with Jena. Ask which home-care products, if any, are included in your appointment.
Questions from the chair
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my natural curl return after a few months?
Do not assume that it will. Ask whether your chosen service changes the treated hair permanently and how regrowth will be managed.
Can I do the salon treatment at home?
QIQI Hair Controller is a professional product. A take-home shampoo or mask is not the same service.
When can I wash or colour my hair?
Get the instructions for your exact treatment from your stylist. A blanket same-day or three-day rule can be wrong for a different product or colour service.
How do I book at Hair Pinns?
Choose the relevant Straight Up Smoothing service and contact Jena if you are unsure which appointment suits your hair. Confirm the price and inclusions before booking.
