First off, I am white, I know that some african-america hair is courser, but my hair is thick, frizzy, and super curly hair, always has been, always will be. I have used flat-irons, anti-frizz serums, pomades, mouse, gel, but nothing seems to work. I have wanted to straighten my hair forever but have some reservations on the damage it will do and the risks. Has anyone ever used this product? It is the regular no-lye formula. I am scared to death that it's going to make my hair fall out or it will make my hair even frizzier.......any feedback would be great thanks for the help :)

I've personally never tried it, but I have a friend whose used it for a week now. She says it works great, no bad side effects. Hope this helps.

I don't know how course your hair is but since you said it was very curly and thick and not nappy you should try a Dominican blow-out. I don't know where you live but if there is a Dominican owned salon in your are they can do it for you and there is less chance for your hair breaking. If you can find a salon like this you can go to black owned salon and tell them what you want. What it is really is a texturizer that they put in your hair and blow your hair out. With a relaxer though there a harsher chemicals and will make your hair too straight. If you afraid your hair falling out you could alse use a relaxer made for kids like Just for Me (this is what i use).

I wouldn't know because I stopped relaxing my hair years ago. I use braids to grow out my hair. You could use a really good conditioner or a deep conditioner to help with the damage. Don't be afraid to clip those ends when needed.

um u can do a deep conditioning session at a beauty shop and it runs for 38 dollars. don't perm your hair and don't be scared of the flat irons.
