japanese straightening
ok, so my friend just got her hair japanese straightened and it looks gorgeuos! her hair is pretty thick, but with the japanese staightening thing it is much thinner and silkier.
i was just wondering if anyone can tell me about it if they've ever had it done, also maybe if you have pictures you could show me just so i could get a better idea of it because i may want to get it done but i'm a bit afraid. See, i have really really thick poofy hair, and even when i straighten it is still thick and it's just hard to deal with because everywhere i move, my hair moves and it pisses me off so i was just wondering if the japanese straightening would make it appear much thinner.
thanks so much, and sorry it is long

i looked into it as well. it works wonders on hair but can be pricey. japenese straightening is about $400-$500 at the cheapest and alot of the time you`ll have to locate a salon that will do it, as many dont. what you could do is look into regular chemical straightening [what i did]. the result is basically the same [however i think with japenese straightening it dries pin straight whether you blow dry or air dry, i could be wrong, but with chemical straightening you still will have to blow dry it out and tame it some]. its cheaper.. about $150-$200 and most salons will do it. you have to get it retouched every 6-9 months if you want to keep up the look [i didnt] and retouches are usually about $75. there are also straightening & de-frizzing at-home kits you can find at Walgreens, CVS, etc that are about $30 that ive heard work well.. [just FYI.. my friend said the straightening kit makes your hair feel sticky but the de-frizzing one works great for de-frizzing & straightening]. yes chemical straightening is damaging but no more than say, flat ironing your hair every day or dyeing it alot, but i think its worth it because it makes your hair look great & lot more manageable. good luck!
