Established in February 2006, M & M International is a family owned and operated business with its headquarters and warehouse in Delray Beach, Florida.

The owners, Marcia and Marcelo Teixeira have created and introduced a revolutionary product to the U.S. market
and created an entirely new category of product never before seen in the salon industry.

M & M is the proprietary owner of the Marcia Teixeira ® Brazilian Keratin Treatment™ product line. As a result of rapid growth and growing consumer demand, M & M branched off into regional distributors in the summer of 2008.

The Marcia Teixeira Brazilian Keratin Treatment™ product line is 100% made in the U.S.A.

Over a life time of struggling with harsh chemical relaxers, Marcia Teixeira ® developed a passion and ambition to come up with a solution for herself and others who suffer with damaged and unmanageable hair. She knew at a very young age that she would go on to become a professional Cosmetologist. Once she became a licensed Cosmetologist, she spent the next several years studying these systems and working with experts to perfect a new type of hair treatment formula, one that would be both safe and highly effective.

What sets Marcia Teixeira ® Brazilian Keratin Treatment™ apart from older technology chemical straighteners and relaxers? The answer is simple - this process doesn’t involve breaking down the hair and restructuring it. These older technology treatments are designed to irreversibly modify and restructure keratin by using products with very high pH levels, usually greater than pH 9 (very high alkalinity). At these very high pH levels the hair shaft will soften, and then swell tremendously and thus become damaged. This is another big difference. The pH range of the Brazilian Keratin Treatment™ is between 4 and 5, exactly matching the normal pH of hair itself.

With the Marcia Teixeira ® Brazilian Keratin Treatment™, there is virtually no risk of hair damage or breakage, as long as the product is properly used, as directed during our training classes and in our Brazilian Keratin Treatment™ Training Manual. The Brazilian Keratin Treatment™ is a long-lasting and gentle, reversible treatment that will eventually wash out over time, without harming the hair.
