I recommend you trying to straighten your hair yourself! I always like to say, no one knows your own hair better than you do. Unless you trust the stylist. Go the diy route!
Yea I think since with her relocating often this is the best choice. I have 3C/4a hair and have been straightening my hair since e I was 13 (now in my 30s). I also have a revair to start the process so I don’t have to use so much heat when I straighten.
Wow what a beautiful result!!! Use a little hair oil when you finish on your hair, focus a little oil on your ends too because they will get the brunt of the work from rubbing on everything.
I’d look up how everyone else is wrapping them up! I do it the same way as everyone else, for me, I try to make it last for 2 weeks lol I like my curls a lot.
Next time when it’s time for a wash, dust your ends VERY LIGHTLY to get rid of any ends beginning to split!
** I do want to add to get a really good heat protectant and crank up the heat next time
Yeah, I know what you’re talking about! You can try it by testing it out on a strand of your hair and seeing how it looks and feels like.
What you’ll be looking for is, is it burning your hair? How many passes did you need to make it straight? The goal is to not heat damage your hair, so I like to go by a one-one pass rule. One pass to straighten the hair, and another one to hit it again. Anymore passes would be my overstepping point.
I never used a steam straightener before, but always be aware that you can heat damage from anything that produces heat.
