Just wanted to share..
I know I'm suppose to be on a hair hiatus, but I found some good information this weekend that I wanted to share.
On Saturday, I noticed this black lady walk into my class with long, shiny, silky hair. When she walked in, her hair was bouncing with almost every step she took. lol I'd noticed her hair before. It's natural with loose curls, and she usually has it pinned up. Well, in class, I overheard her talking about this treatment that she had done to her hair that was called the *brazilian keratin treatment*.
Of course, I had to get in that conversation. I complimented her hair, and started asking for specifics.
She said she had been researching the treatment for a bit. She found a guy that works at a salon in River Oaks that offers the treatment on the side.
She wasn't sure what brand, but she did mention that it wasn't Coppola, and it did have formaldeyde. The guy did it in his apartment. Her boyfriend went with her just in case, but left as soon as he saw the guy was more interested in him than her, he left. lol
This part had me kind of cracking up. I asked her how much it cost, and she looked at my hair (current neck length weave), and said 'oh, it probably won't be expensive for you. Since I have long hair, it cost me $150". I was cracking up inside. Granted..she does have BSL hair, but so do I. I think she'll be in a rude awakening this summer. lol I don't get why everyone automatically assume you have to be bald to wear a weave.
Anywho, at least I have the guy's contact number. If anyone is interested, PM me. Oh yea, it's in Houston.

UPDATE:
I just called and spoke to him, and he's sooooooo sweet!
He said he charges 160-180, and he has the conditioner and shampoo $15 each. He uses the Marcia Texeira Keratin treatment, and that's the exact one that I was interested in. He is available on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays after 5:30p. He's around the Galleria area - 59 and Chimney Rock.
Oh yeah, I loved this part, he GUARANTEES that you will love it! He hasn't had any complaints, and he said if you had any problems that he would work with you to make sure you'll be happy.

I've had this weave for too long, so it's not as.. um.. fresh. My natural hair has reverted a bit, and I've been refusing to keep on straightening it. It looks a bit of a ham at this point. lol
