Is this true for anyone?

i've just had a straight style on mine...actually, kinky straight, the beautician said i had relaxer already in my hair..i find that if it starts "drawing" up after going in the water, i will use a leave in conditioner (Nioxin silk exilir) and a warm/low setting on the blow dryer.  It seems that keeping the hair moisturized and away from heat has been my best bet..afterwards, i use Farouk biosilk. it's clear and silk based..it gives it great shine, protection no matter what the style is, and better manageability.

when i apply heat, i get scared..someone who didn't know very much about ethnic hair, said i could blow dry my hair "everyday" and there wouldn't be a problem..

well, my hair began thinning at the part, and became dry/brittle..at one point, i looked in the mirror and realized, i looked like a witch shot out of a cannon.

stick with us on the forum..there is a myriad of experience, take what you need...from what i see, we've been around the block a couple of times when it comes to learning.
