And yet another HAIR STRAIGHTENING/Top Point question...

For those of you who had it straightened and have already washed it:

-are you able to get volume to your hair?

-will your hair hold a curl/wave if you use a curling iron?


I really would like to have it done, but my fear is that my hair will look "unnaturally" straight, if that makes any sense.

Volume won't be there at first - it'll take two/three months for that to show up and your hair to initially get over the "shock" per se.

Your hair will not hold a curl/wave until about 6 months+

Your hair will be pin straight - not unnatural looking at all, but PIN STRAIGHT.

Check out the pics on the thread.

At first it was really flat but I guess since my roots grew in slightly there is more volume. I also notice more volume when I blowdry versus airdrying.
The ends of my hair are very straight, so this is what makes it look different from before I had the JS. I used a big barreled curling iron to curl the ends under and it looks more natural this way... I did this for a baby shower to get a all over this past friday for a wedding and it did hold the curlChat Icon
I am only going to curl it for special occasions though because I am afraid of damaging it

Re: And yet another HAIR STRAIGHTENING/Top Point question...

depends on the hair.....
I have very thick hair and a lot of it.
I got it done 2 months ago.
I got volume after 1 week....
I started curling the ends after 1 week also. I dont like my hair pin straight.
