Thank you Sexi,
i saw the technique where you can thin the hair out and texturing it,
do you think i have to straighten the hair before?
i know it may sound stupid but i want to make sure before i make a mistakeCry
im confused Confused and i dont want to damage my unit.

ITA with Sexi, bc unless your hair looks like Chaka Khana / Diana Ross hair, u will need that hair bc to me the curly / kinky curly units tend to thin out on there own in a short period of time. Do u have any pictures of the unit applied?

I thinned out my Denovo curly unit back in October 2007 using the method in the Newbie thread and it worked just fine. I did it while it was dry though so I could have a better idea of just how much hair I was taking out. It came out fine.
