So today I made my butt satisfy my craving to have my hair bone straight, and ventured to the Dominican salon in Silver Spring- Mary's.

I've been to her before and I've tried others and I actually do like her.... some what....

So I go in knowing it's been two weeks since I've washed. I normally wash every week especially since I travel alot or else it would be every two days. I've been doing the Sylver technique, little manipulation as possible and pulling it all back into a bun while I scarf the front down.

Did I say I've been craving to have it bone straight? Well I didn't want to texlex again since the last time was August(I've only texlexed 3 times this year. Was trying to go for only 2 but that didn't work) So I knew I had issues down there, but geared myself up for the kill.

Wellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll As soon as I walked in there I told them I wanted a rollerset. So she takes me to the back and starts washing my hair. She mashing it doing all kinds of no no. and I'm sitting there telling myself I'm done for it. I kept thinking about you ladies and a voice kept saying get up and just leave just leave. But i stuck it out, after all i wanted my hair bone straight right?

Soooo she whips out a wide tooth comb and proceeded to comb my hair while wet. Rake Rake Rake from top to bottom, little voice in my head is saying get up and leave, she's never done this to you before......

I hear ooooo mami you need a relaxer when was the last time you relaxed are you natural? I told her no I've relaxed almost 3 months ago, but I don't do it all the way. I know she must have talked about me in spanish to her friends. I didn't care.... after all I wanted it bone straight.

So after 15 long a$$ mins I was done, and I proceeded towards her station. yes she used the fine tooth comb and combed my hair from top to tip.:perplexed and I let her do it. After alll...........
:wallbash:
So alot of hair came out, was I worried? Well yes and no .... See I knew my hair was due, and I knew I was gonna tangle alot, I know that it need to be detangled, I knew that I was in for it, but after all I wanted...........

So some parts were easier than others. Anyways I had talked myself into it and told myself if all else failed I can deal with starting all over again. LOL yeah ok.......

Well at the end my hair came out better than I thought. I have more thickness and length then I have ever known. I knew that this site had my back and I was working with intelligent ladies who would help me out if anything goes wrong.

So my pics are in my siggy. I am soooooo smelling myself right now. :grin:

But I will not be going back anytime soon. Let's just say I will stick to twice a year :yep::lachen:
 
Your hair came out lovely! You probably think you lost a lot in the rollerset because you went two weeks. It was probably a normal amount. LOL, ignore the oooooooooh mami you need a relaxer...I know I do. Your hair is so pretty!

thanks chiika. Oh she couldn't believe it when she saw the final product and she was the one that did both the rollerset and the blow out. She shouted to her friends and they all turned to look. I think she was thinking my hair would be damaged. I walked out of there with a big o'l cheese smile thinking LHCF :grin:

btw your hair looks great. Are you natural?

Thanks sis. Yup it really did. I'm just amazed that I am here all because of this site. Where was it like 5 yrs ago, why did it take me so long to join:look:

Very, very pretty abenyo; your hair looks really thick and healthy!

Thanks miss lady. Um your abs are looking mighty toned right there. Go ahead with your bad self.
 
your hair came out really good:yep:
I know how you feel though, i had to limit my trips to the dominican salon for the very same reasons.:spinning:
 
This always happens to me when I go to my local Dominican hangout...homegirl always talks in spanish, and up until recently, I didn't let her know I am fluent...until a few weeks ago, when she asked a question under her breath, When are you going to relax? and "I said, the third week of November" she was shocked and shut her mouth.:lick:
 
Oh Mami! I must have passed by you this evening on my way to the gym. Oh, shucks! Big Sis' need to lean you over her knee and give you a big :spank: for allowing Conchita Consuela use a fine tooth and comb from top to bottom. Mami, you know better.

Note to SP: Now you know that was racist, but you meant no harm.

Back on topic: Now that you got your hair done and you experienced that, next time, we need to grab Sunshine_One and make the trip to Adams Morgan to Judith's. Everyone I know, including MsBrown76 and JenniferMD go there and she does wonderful work. The downside is that she's closed on Sunday's. All the other Dominicans are open on Sunday, including the ones in Silver Sprang.

Next time you're in this area, hit me up. We'll get a drink at Jackie's or roll over to Adega's. I mean it! :kiss:

Oh, and...































YOUR HAIR LOOKS ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!!!! :notworthy::worship2::trophy:
 
Oh, yeah. The infamous "Mami, you need relaxer, Mami, you need perm!":lachen: I DARE not go to the Dominicans until December because I'd get dragged to the seat and held down to get one. :lachen:

Your hair looks LOVELY. :] Next time, listen to that voice in your head. I'd have hated for this post to have gone another way. HHG!

Janelle believe me next time I don't think I would just sit down and take it. I was clutching my purse like oh hells no.:lachen: I'm ready to go. But I knew it was gonna turn out ok. I did my prayers and LOA before stepping in there.

oh hellz no twice in one day?

I wish I knew a dominican that can do a mean blow out that's part of this forum, imagine the money they would make. They are good but too damaging for our hair.

Thanks MissJ.
 
yes, your hair is gorgeous :blush:. So, are you gonna stick with Sylver's method? I know I only wash my hair every 2 weeks and I love how much less breakage I get.

for sure been doing it for a while now. It definitely works. But at times I just want to wear other styles besides the protective ones.
 
I love your hair...its very full and thick, and it sure is getting longer:drunk:....
(...actually, i'm kinda jealous...will do anything for those gorgeous thick ends:lick:)
