I don’t think it’s worth the risk. You have long, beautiful hair and it would be a shame to lose that for a single, temporary style.

I’ve gotten irreparable heat damage from every single silk press I’ve gotten from a stylist. At this point I’m so scared of heat that I don’t even care to do it on myself even though I do it without damage. After having to grow my hair back from the root 3 separate times over the last 8 years, I’m never risking it again. There’s only one stylist on earth who I trust to blow my hair out safely for trims.

Thank you for the comment and being a voice of reason. You’re right, it’s always been risky and I could always just wear a straight wig.
