Thermal (Japanese) straightening on already damaged hair?

My hair has recently begun to show signs of damage from daily straightening with a ceramic flat iron. I consulted with a hair dresser about getting it relaxed. She said that the damage wasn't that bad (there's a bit of breakage and split ends, and it's much frizzier than it used to be) but there was enough damage that she recommended that I don't get it relaxed.

I've heard such great things about thermal hair straightening. Has anyone has had success using it on hair that is already damaged? I want to be sure that when it's all said and done my hair doesn't all break off!! Will it tame the frizzies that I do have?

I have fine-textured, wavy caucasian hair. Thanks!

If your hairdresser won't do it then I t can't be done....Think .....Hairdressers make money by doing hair ,,,,,when we send someone home and tell them that they can not have a service, it is because, the service will ruin the hair.......If you do it anyway, it will melt or fry your hair.

protect your hair from heat styling products with a silicon based hair serum. put it in your hair when it's wet. i use got2b. it's really made a difference for me =] my hair is more soft, less frizzy, more straight, and shinier. the little bottle has a pink cap looking thing..
