Want to offer hair botox, nanoplastia or keratin, or to learn them before you open your own chair? Training options in Canada range from a self-paced online course to a day in a salon with a trainer and a live model. Here is how the formats compare, what a good course should teach, a checklist before you pay, and how many treatments it takes to cover the cost.
The short answer: training formats in Canada
| Format | Typical cost (CAD, before tax) | What is included | Who it suits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Online, at your own pace | from about $799 (example: Naturalook Academy) | video lessons and quizzes, a product kit, a certificate, support after the course | working stylists and beginners anywhere in Canada who want to learn around their schedule |
| In person, in a group | about $599 for one treatment, $899 to $1,179 for several (example: Naturalook Academy, Montreal) | one or two days with a trainer, practice on a live model, a certificate | those who learn best hands-on and can travel to the training |
| Brand or distributor session | varies, often on request | the protocol of one product line | stylists who already work with that brand and want its exact steps |

Hair botox is not an injection
When you search for a “botox course” in Canada, most results are medical Botox injection courses for nurses and doctors. Hair botox has nothing to do with them: it is a conditioning and smoothing hair treatment applied with a brush and sealed with a flat iron, with no needle and no medical product. If you plan to open a business, check the requirements that apply to hair services in your province.
Naturalook no longer distributes Honma Tokyo. Our exclusive brands Felps Professional and Prohall Professional cover the same services: keratin, hair botox, nanoplastia, bixyplastia. First pro order: HONMA10 for 10% off.
What a good course should teach
Technique is only part of it. A course that prepares you to work on paying clients should cover:
- Hair diagnosis. Hair structure (cuticle, cortex), porosity and elasticity tests, hair history (colour, bleach, previous smoothing) and the level of damage.
- Choosing the treatment. When to suggest a keratin, a hair botox, a nanoplastia or a bixyplastia, and when the hair needs a reconstruction first. Our guide to the differences between keratin, hair botox, bixyplastia and nanoplastia is a good starting point, and what is nanoplastia explains that category.
- Technique. Washing, sectioning, application, processing time according to porosity, drying, flat-iron temperature and number of passes.
- Safety. A ventilated room, gloves, what to know about formaldehyde, and the correct iron temperature for each hair type.
- Aftercare. What the client should use at home and how to explain it, so the result lasts.
- The client conversation. Consultation, a consent form, realistic expectations and the price.
- Your own photos. Take photos of your own work from the first models (with their permission): they will be your portfolio.
Checklist before you pay for a course
- A kit in the price? Check what it contains and what it is worth: products to practise with save you a first order.
- Practice. In person: is there a live model, and who brings it? Online: are there detailed videos of each step and assignments?
- A certificate. Is it the same for online and in-person training? Is it accepted to open a professional account with a supplier?
- Support after the course. Can you ask questions after your first clients?
- Access to products at professional prices. Professional treatments are sold to professionals only, so ask how you will buy them after the course and at what price.
- Prerequisites, length and language. Does the course require experience? How long do you have access to the lessons?
How many treatments to cover the course?
A simple way to see it: divide the course price by what you keep per treatment once the product and supplies are paid. In our guide to keratin, hair botox and nanoplastia prices in Canada, most salon listings for hair botox are between about $170 and $400, and nanoplastia between about $250 and $400.
Example: you charge $200 for a hair botox, and once the product, shampoo and gloves are paid you keep about $150. A $799 course is covered after about six treatments (799 ÷ 150 ≈ 5.3). With a nanoplastia at $300, it takes fewer. This is only an example, not a promise of income: your real figure depends on your prices, your time and your clients.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need experience to take a hair botox or nanoplastia course?
Not for the Naturalook Academy course: no prior license or experience is required. Other courses may ask for a hairdressing background, so check before you sign up.
How long does the training take?
Online, you go at your own pace: the Naturalook Academy course has 64 lessons, available for 180 days. In person, a treatment course in Montreal takes one day (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.), or two days for the expert level.
Can I learn hair botox and nanoplastia online?
Yes. A good online course combines detailed videos, quizzes and assignments, and ships you a product kit to practise with. If you want a trainer next to you, choose an in-person course.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes, at Naturalook Academy, and it is the same for the online and in-person training. It is accepted to open a professional account on naturalook.shop.
How is it different from a Botox injection course?
Completely. Hair botox is a hair treatment sealed with a flat iron, with no needle and no medical product. Botox injection courses are medical training for health professionals.
