Okay, I have tried to blowdry and flat iron my hair before. And it turned out a hot mess. My hair had absolutely NO body, and my ends were still really poofy. They wouldn't get straight or flat for anything. So, for our 5 year wedding anniversay, I decided to get my hair straightened for my husband (who hates my hair natural btw). So, I went to a stylist, and when she did it, it was just about the same. She was able to get my ends straight....after blowdrying 3 times and flat ironing twice. But, my hair still had ABSOLUTELY NO body. Don't get me wrong, it looked good, but it still had not body. She said that my hair may be weighed down from condition washing everyday. Is that possible even though I clarify like every two weeks??? And I mostly used VO5 and Suave conditioners. I used cone products every now and then. But I definitely clarify after using those. I thought it was all in my technique at first. But I see that it's my hair.
Also, since she used SOOOO much heat. Now I'm afraid that my 4a coils are gone. I haven't washed my hair out yet because I'm afraid it will be a HOTT MESS. I mean she used Dominican blowout heat on her blowdry. I saw tons of steam coming out.
Here's a picture of how I wore it today. I have more pictures in my Fotki.
