Literally FRIED!!!

I had been growing my hair natural for two years now. And I wanted to prove to other ladies that you can still have straight, healthy natural hair. BTW I am a 4b!!!

I purchased a really good flat iron, blow dryer, and Mizani Curling Wax and began to straighten my hair. I would get up every morning and do it all cute for work to hear the compliments.

After a few days, maybe 4, I washed my hair and it shriveled back up into the tiny coils I was blessed with. I did it again later but got a sew in while it was straightened out...

When I took the weave out after about 2 weeks and washed my hair, my ends were still straight while my roots were Kunta Kente! I looked like I was 10 months post relaxer! And my hair was barely long enough to put in a pony tail...

Soooo I figured ok I will just straighten the ends... I had to do something to it so I did it everyday thinking because my hair was "natural" that it couldn't be damaged. Well... I flat ironed it and it literally fried my hair. As in when I combed my hair after it was all said and done, not only was my whole comb (extra wide tooth) full of hair but it broke to the touch!

I fell to my knees, yes fell to my knees, in tears! My hair smelled like a fish fry!
