Chemical Hair Straightening Help?

Hello there!

I've done it several times with several different products. I've heard bad results from the Japanese techniques for straightening hair (Dry hair, split ends, no body).

The best results I've gotten where from a cream.

Before straightening it, I used to use the iron everyday...my hair was in good conditions but after the straightening my hair was shinnier, smoother and nicer. No more iron or dryer and it was still straight!!

I was so afraid I'd get split ends, but that didnt happen. It was expensive, about 300 dollars, and it lasted about 9 months (my hair grows really fast) if yours doesnt grow as fast as mine you could keep it for about a year or so.

The trick here is that you check with your stylist that he uses one that is like a cream.

I dont have the name of the product my stylist used but it had the followin steps:

1- Rinse hair apply special shampoo

2.-Apply cream, and comb it straight (20 mins)

3.-Rinse again, apply 2nd cream...wait

4.- Rinse and dry with a straightener and do not wash for 2 days.

Good luck with your hair!
