ok....I have a question. Mochachip says the PH straight is silkier than the wavy. And I already knew that the 50mm felt better than the 28mm in softness. Since the wavy goes straight anyway, and then everyone 'resets' their curl by either rollers, boinks, braids etc..... would we be better off just using the straight PH?

Good one Sherrie - that's something to think about. 

When I get my PH, I have to razor cut it, right?  How do you do this?  Remember I only wear one piece on the bottom of my head and I usually cut my pieces straight across.  What do I do with the PH?

Well I was just thinking....that if it goes straight anyway, wouldnt we be better off to start with a silkier PH to start with? Would it stay silkier and nicer, longer? Or would 'setting' a wave in the straight "F" up the soft and silkier straight hair? Am I having blonde moments here or does anyone follow my train of thought here.......

I've wondered the same thing myself (about the silky PH vs wavy). If it's a blonde moment we're all having one, lol. For what it's worth my wawa feels softest right after I steam it totally straight, but crunchier after it's waved - even if I do it with steam. So curling silky PH may do the same thing. Just a guess, though.

Well, the 50mm stays pretty silky, imo. I'm not sure the straight would ultimately be silkier, but there may be other advantages to using the straight, as it's probably easier to handle in terms of blending, etc. I like using the 50mm because I can rock that initial wave for the first five days or so, then rock the loosened wave after another 5 days, so I've got 10 days of no styling at the beginning. But after that, I always do have to reset it. I may try the straight at some point, too. :)
