ITA.  You will see the diffrence in the long run.  My hair has been so much healthier and I gained a lot of length from reducing heat.  I'm glad the wrapping worked for you!

princess8907, it is difficult. My hair is not so hard to manage it just takes a lot of time, the longer it gets the harder it is to manage. And it’s naturally curly a combo of tight ringlet curls with some wavy curls. It’s too hard to maintain like that and a hassle to wash every morning so I straighten it. Its long and it takes forever but I do want to see if refraining from flat ironing every morning will make a difference. I have also given up brushing. I’m trying to grow my hair to hip length so it would be nice not to have to flat iron all that every day. I’m going to take your advice and I think I’m doing well and cutting back. In 8 days I have only used my iron twice that’s an improvement. I’ll try to keep it up.
