If you flat iron too much and dont use some type of heat protectant than yes it can be damaging to the hair, it doesnt matter if the hair is relaxed, natural or texturized.
My hair is relaxed & healthy, I flat iron once or twice a month to see how much progess Im making, and each time I do I use a heat protectant.
I use a flat iron and I relax my hair. I just got my Sedu and used it today and my hair looks really nice. Also the relaxer my mom put in a few days ago doesn't look like it worked all the way. We left it on for the same amount of time we usually do but my roots are puffy still. Before with my hot tools flat iron, I only straightened my hair like once a month. But the Sedu works so much better so I don't know how often I'll be using it.

I use a flatiron and I relax my hair. Im careful not to use the flatiron too much, I know too much heat isnt good for my hair, thats why im looking for a good heat protectant. My hair is very healthy, you can use the flatiron , but in moderation, dont over do it. I flatiron once every two weeks after i wash my hair, but every ones hair is different. (when i need a touch up i use the flatiron alot more to "tame" my roots)
