My hair still has bounce. If you do do it you have to remember to keep your hair moisturized otherwise it will break off.

Does chemical hair starightening really work?

yes, it works. but be careful. make sure you do not have any sensitivities to the chemicals. and be sure that the person you have do your hair has plenty of experience with your hair type. see if you can talk to or meet some of their past and present customers. if you do it yourself, make sure you follow directions and patch test. if you are not careful, you could end up bald with scabs on your head. I made mistake of using someone who did not know what they were doing and was just starting out as a hair dresser, and she nearly ruined my scalp, permanently!

Does chemical hair starightening really work?

someone i know just got is straightened and her hair was EXTREMELY curly before. it looks really good. It was flat for the first day or two but after you wash and dry it yourself, it looks really good. the only bad part is that it grows in curly, so if you dont get it touched up every couple of months it will be half straight and half curly.

hope that helped

Does chemical hair starightening really work?

i guess it all depends on your hair type. My cousin had it done a while ago, and for the 7-8 months that it lasted it looked wonderful (then again, she loves anything that adds volume to her hair, so i couldn't tell you if it was "dead and dangling" or not)

But there is also another girl I know who had it done a month or so ago and it looks terrible!.

If you still are considering getting it done, I would do a little research (sorry). If you can find a salon that is professional and specializes in processes like that, go for it. Otherwise, I'd wait and invest in a really good flat iron.

i put relaxers/chemical straightners in my hair...mom used to put them in my hair when i was younger because that was easier for her to deal with. as a child, it was easy to put my hair up in braids, but when i got to be school age, wearing braids was too "kiddish"...mom's option was to have a beautician relax my hair...to this day, i have continued to put relaxers in my hair. some ppl cant put them in their hair..i have never experienced hair loss from relaxers, so i cant say anything bad about them. i dont go to beauticians, i do the home kits, and still no problem....its cheaper doing them yourself, but if its your first time, i would go to a beautician.
