Thermal straightening, also referred to as the Japanese method, can cost anywhere from $300 to $1000, depending on the length and type of hair. This method is not entirely permanent, in the sense that as your roots grow out, they will be curly and will need to be touched up.
The main disadvantages of this process is that it contains a lot of chemicals so it can be damaging to your hair, it takes a lot of time to do, and the cost. However, the results can be great!

You can't get it done permanently but good salons can treat it for about $75.00-$100.00 an hour. The cost depends on how long your hair is. It will last a few months. You will have to go in after that for much shorter treatments for the salon to treat your root growth. It will never be straight forever.

Around $50-$75 call salons around you and ask how much a relaxer costs

depends on were you go they can run you anywhere from 50 to 120 dollars and they don't last that long.I did mine myself i have curly hair,and i left mine in for a half an hour and it still didn't do anything for my hair it's still curly as ever.the side effects can range from nothing to it can kill your hair.Split ends and stuff like that but they can be repaired.Think about it first before you spend your money on it.

You can't permanently straighten it - it grows out curly or wavy or straight.

nothings permanent. Why do they call them permanants when you have to go back every few months and have it redone, should be called temporarys, or just do something with what you have.
