I am a Paranoid Schizophrenic when it comes to using direct heat on my hair...
The thought of blow drying, flat ironing freaks me out.
Ok, I'm exaggerating![Giggle :giggle: :giggle:](/smilies/giggle.gif)
Despite all of the great tips I've learned on this site to prevent heat damage, I still can't bring myself to flat iron or blow dry b/c I'm afraid of what it might do to my precious tresses.
When I was relaxed, I used to abuse my hair with heat. I would rollerset, then flat iron, sound fine right?
![Nono :nono: :nono:](/smilies/nono.gif)
I would do this every week, w/o using heat protectants and the flat iron was CRANKED UP TO THE HIGHEST SETTING. My hair was long, but it was thin.
Anyhoo, now that I'm natural, I want to learn how to be comfortable with using direct heat once in a while, but every time I even attempt to do a small section, I bug out and immediately wash to make sure my curls are still intact.
I just needed to get this out of my system. Any advice would be apprecited...TIA!
