Okay, I'm not sure where this is going and I don't blame anyone if they don't answer! (Just in a weird mood)
Normally I have very curly hair that falls to somewhere around my shoulderblades. (Think the girl in my AV) Periodically, my hairdresser, after trimming it, will offer to straighten my hair. She uses an iron. As soon as I wash my hair, those dang curls come back. ARGH!
Well, last week I bought my very own straightening iron and I am totally hooked! Yeah, it takes me over an hour to blow dry and straighten my hair (it's very thick as well), but damn the results are heaven to me! For this short period I can have hair that feels silky to the touch, that I can run my fingers through without tangles/snarls, and - best of all - I can go to sleep and just brush it the next morning. How wonderful is all that?!?!
The downside is that straightening my hair is a not so good thing for it. Can really damage the ends as well as the hair shafts. SO....it's something I can only do maybe once or twice a month.
To turn this over to any other willing victims....are you satisfied with all there is about you? Would you change something, and if so, what and why? And, to keep in tone with the board, how?
Generally, I love my hair. Most would say it's one of my best features. But having long, straight, silky hair gives me the feeling of almost being some one else for a short period of time!
