Anti-Frizz Hair Smoothing Treatment Reading
— with Wella SmoothFiller
Tired of frizzy, puffy or difficult-to-manage hair? At The 5th Element Hair Salon in Reading, we now offer the new Wella SmoothFiller smoothing treatment — a modern anti-frizz hair service designed to smooth, soften and control the hair while maintaining movement and natural texture.
Unlike harsh straightening systems, SmoothFiller is ideal for clients who want smoother, shinier and more manageable hair without making it flat or permanently straight.
Whether your hair becomes frizzy in humidity, takes too long to style, or feels dry and rough after colouring, this treatment helps create a softer, polished finish that lasts for weeks.
SMOOTHFILLER
Salon Service To Smooth, Fill And Restructure Your Hair
Wella Professionals has introduced an innovative smoothing technology designed to leave the hair softer, shinier and noticeably smoother with a natural-looking finish.
PREMIUM SMOOTHING TREATMENT
What Is Wella Smooth Filler?
Wella Smooth Filler (also known as Pro+ Smoothfiller) is a professional in-salon demi-permanent smoothing treatment designed to restructure the hair fibre, eliminate frizz, and help protect against humidity.
The treatment uses a modern vegan, silicone-free formula that helps improve the condition and appearance of the hair while creating a smoother, more polished finish.
Unlike many older smoothing systems, Smooth Filler does not aim to permanently straighten the hair. Instead, it works by refining the hair structure, smoothing rough areas of the cuticle, and improving manageability.
The result is hair that:
- Feels softer
- Looks shinier
- Is easier to style
- Resists humidity more effectively
- Requires less daily maintenance
Many clients describe the result as healthier-looking hair rather than obviously "treated" hair.
Who Is Wella Smooth Filler For?
Wella Smooth Filler is ideal for clients who want smoother, softer, easier-to-manage hair without losing natural body, bounce, or movement.
Experience daily frizz and flyaways
Struggle with humidity causing their hair to puff up
Have colour-treated or highlighted hair
Want smoother hair without losing natural movement
Find styling time-consuming
Have dry or porous hair
Want a lighter alternative to keratin treatments
Prefer a softer, more natural finish
This treatment is particularly popular with clients who have fine to medium hair types, where a stronger keratin treatment may feel unnecessary.
How Does Wella Smooth Filler Work?
The treatment works by helping to smooth the hair cuticle and improve the overall structure of the hair fibre.
By filling and refining uneven areas within the hair, Smooth Filler creates a smoother surface that reflects light more effectively, resulting in enhanced shine and softness.
The treatment also helps create a protective barrier against humidity, reducing the amount of moisture absorbed from the environment that often causes frizz.
Unlike traditional straightening treatments, Smooth Filler preserves natural movement, texture, and body, allowing the hair to feel naturally smooth rather than artificially flat.
