All right, i have really curly hair, it isnt outrageous and kinky, but i live in a very humid place and that doesnt help the frizziness. So that japanese thermal reconditioning treatment makes hair permanently smooth and straight. I have been seriously considering it and there are a few downsides, like side effects, its completely permanent (that could be a blessing or a curse), it is really expensive, but i have heard it is worth it. so i am just wondering if anyone here has any info/stories on it or has had it done or knows someone who has done it.
