Posted By: Unregistered Guest Subject: Need advice and help... Date Posted: January 23 2002 at 6:58pm Hi! I have VERY curly and THICK hair. For school, I always do the SAME hair style....put my hair in a "half pony tail." I have medium length hair....a bit lower than my shoulders. I`m looking for a new style....casual and simple. When I try loose, it always gets frizzy. Have advice? I straightened it once, only temporarily. I loved my hair straight....but I had to make it curly eventually.. :( It was SO easy to take care of when it was straight. My mom was thinking of relaxing my hair....but I`m not so sure if its permanent....I`m not African American...so would it work?? I don`t want it to be permanent....a lot of people like my hair curly. WHAT SHOULD I DO??? :( Replies: Posted By: Budokan Date Posted: January 24 2002 at 9:03pm Be very careful about about applying a relaxer to your hair. I seen a number of women wreck their hair by relaxing it. You really want a gentle no-lye product. I can recommend the one by Phytothérathrie (sold in the Marketplace on this web site). It is a quality product that is gentle and won`t harm your hair. You can read about the product here and even ask questions of Karen. She will answer them. Get as much information as you can before making your decision. -------------
