Life List item - Have my hair straightened. Chemically.
I've been thinking about this months, nay, years, so I finally just went for it and got my hair straightened. I did the Brazilian Blowout keratin treatment thing so that my hair would still have some body, but would be less frizzy, and it's good for your hair. My hair guy shampooed my hair a few times, put the treatment in and then spent about an hour blowdrying/flat ironing it. It cost $100 less than I expected which was a nice little bonus.
First shot is actually from last month on a particularly frizz-free day, second shot is right after getting it done (my hair has never been so straight or so soft!), the last shot is from today after I washed it for the first time. I didn't do anything to it besides run a comb through it. If I left my curly hair to its own devices like that, I would end up with brillo pad fro head.
So far - stoked! Excited to spend a couple months with non-frizzy hair that I can do fun straight hair things with!
