Okay ladies, here's the deal:
I normally do not put any heat on my hair (aside from a monthly deep condition under my soft cap hair dryer) but I would like to press my hair every now and again just to see the length of my hair. That might sound shallow to some, but oh well...
Anyway, my stylist tells me that she is nervous about me pressing my hair because she thinks it will ruin my natural curl pattern. Like many of us, I have all kinds of strands in my head and my left front side in particular is straighter than the rest.
My question is: those of you naturals who press or flat iron, has it changed your curl pattern significantly? Are you no longer able to rock natural styles? I really want to hear others' experiences before I give in because if pressing won't allow me to fro' out from time to time, then I'll pass.
Thanks in advance ladies!
