FYI- it depends on the texture of your hair which one you should use . My MOH get gets the japanese , but she has VERY kinky hair . The brazilian is less harsh chemical -wise , but if you highlight your hair already, it might be overkill. The brazilian did not work on her hair

My MOH goes to Pilo in bay ridge

There is a product for Japanese straightening called I-straight, it has 3 strengths depending on your hair type, and there is one strength safe for highlighted hair.... i've had it done 3 times, lasts me about a year. and my hair is very highlighted... I've never had a problem with breakage or anything. It's great!

i didnt do japanese or brazilian but i just got it chemically straightened. it KILLED my hair only lasted for about 2-3 months and it was a pain in the @ss getting it done.

my hair wouldnt curl naturally like it used to for a whole year. it had a weird frizzy wave afterward

I would suggest not getting the brazilian straightening. I read an article where a woman died because she inhaled the formaldahyde they put in your hair while she was showering. It has some bad side effects on people if not done properly.

There is a new straightening system called Keratin Straightening or something that does not use formaldehyde. Its pretty new. My friend does hair and just took a class on this a few months ago. She said its like a super conditioning treatment for your hair and they recommend doing it right after coloring since it locks in the color. Shes had a few clients already and said it came out amazing. My friend is a health nut and would never use anything that is harsh or poisonous. She said she did not learn the other straightening methods because of the formaldehyde fear. As soon as the wedding is over I am getting my hair straightened.
