Any good information on Japanese hair straightening?

Im deliberating on whether I should get a japanese straightening done or not. I need more information before I decide though.

My hair is very thick {has lots of volume} and curly; and usually frizzy. Im going on a trip to Bermuda for a week, and I really don't want to have to deal with the mess I call my hair. Someone had said that with a japanese straightening, it can get wet and it'll dry straight. Hopefully thats true!

Also, when I flat iron my hair, it turns thinner, and I wanted to know if thats the case with the japanese straightening. When I blowdry my hair straight, it's all poofy; but when I flat iron it, it's a bit thin. Will it be thin? Or will it look like it does when I blowdry it?

Please help!

if your hair is curly, thick and frizzy then the Japanese straightening would probably be a great idea for you. it's a permanent straightening and yes, it will dry straight. you don't even have to blow-dry for it to dry straight.

i had straight, thick and frizzy hair and went for a Japanese straightening about a year ago. i only wanted it because i heard it eliminates frizziness. i can honestly say that on the first day it felt kind of weird because it was soooo flat! my thickness seemed to have disappeared.. but the texture was so shiny and smooth. then after a few weeks the volume started to come back and the frizziness was still at bay.

a year later, the frizz still hasn't come back! i don't regret getting the straightening, i liked it! just keep in mind that it's a perm and it will stay straight until it grows out.

and to answer your question, it will look more like when you flat iron your hair. it becomes a bit thinner and not poufy.
