My Hair Straightening Mess

I too have had my hair fried.  It is bent at the base near the scalp.  I am trying not to blame it soley on the hair stylist since I was the one who made the decission to have my hair done and I didn't spend as much time researching the process and stylists in the area as I should have but I am sick of constantly being burned by one hair stylist after another.  My hair stylist in Germany was an artist.  I could give that man any picture and I would come home looking even better.  Since my family and I have moved back from Germany I have failed to find a salon that is able to do anything more then CHOP my hair and now I went and made the worst mistake of all and had my hair straightened.  You would think I would learn my lesson.  Well I have finally, I guess.  I did get in touch with a stylist in NY who is well known and he said that if I am having that hard of a time finding a decent stylist then the chances of me getting this fixed are slim to none.  He suggested that I do as many protien treatments on my hair as is directed or allowed by a hair stylist and that I do deep conditioning treatments on my hair 3 times a week and in the mean time i may have to consider cutting my hair to lesson the weight on the now very fragile bent areas.   I did go back to the hair dresser and told them what had happened and they acted like they had nothing to do with it so I turned them in to the better business beaurau (sorry on spelling. not my strong point) and am asking for a refund.  I also am having a bad time with the itchies and at first had alot of dandruf which I have never had a day in my life.
