Hello Ladies!! I'm new here, I was wondering if anyone has seen any girls that have hair that is absolutely slick as hell and shiny. Sorta looks like grease I suppose but am not sure. How in the world do that do that?  Hot comb? ??  Also, how do you get your hair absolutely straight without heat?  And is it true that your hair breaks if you do not touch up your relaxer?

If not taken care of your hair can break if you don't touch up your relaxer.  The only way I know of to get hair straight w/o heat is a wet wrap.  That dosen't get mine completely straight though because my hair is natural but a lot of relaxed ladies can get the bone straight look with just a wrap. 

For the slick shiny look i use Fantasia IC gel w/sparkelites.  It makes your hair super shiny and for some extra shine I just smooth on a few drops of olive oil or wild growth oil.
