My hair hates heat in general but I'm pressing soon so I can trim. Its inevitable I think. Hopefully I'm going to do it the safest way possible since I bought a tool that should help me get it straight in one pass of the iron. But yeah mine sheds a ton when straight... I shea butter them ends everyday, pin it under my scarf at night, and cross my fingers everytime. Always seems so much thinner after I finally wash.

yep I found that flat irons & blow dryers are the debil...  . I'm just going to roller set and I hope my thickness will eventually decide to come on back to me.

Hey Ladies,
I haven't checked in for awhile; the holidays really threw me off. But, I'm getting back on my regimen and I'm so encouraged by ya'lls progress.

After date night yesteday, Hubby flat ironed Cleo for me. He used the comb chase method w/o knowing that's what we call it! Lol! He got Cleo really straight. We decided to leave the trimming to my stylist since I have natural layers.
I may try and wrap her since he got her so straight. But, I'm hit or miss with the wrapping. Plus, she's heavy and falls as I try to wrap her. So, we'll see.
Happy Friday, Ladies!
