100% Natural.

Past WL.

One slow swipe on highest setting. I either use the Sedu or FHI.

It takes about 30 to 45 minutes on dry hair.(I'm a trained pro)

Blowdrying takes about 20 minutes.

Roller Set drying takes about 1.5 hours.

ETA: I use a little Moroccan Oil (original) both before drying and after flat ironing.

I honestly have no idea. I have never thought to time it. I usually don't have anywhere to go on the day I choose to straighten my hair so there has never been a need to keep an eye on the clock. Any time I have timed anything to do with my hair was after I was asked and then deliberately timed myself, otherwise I just never do my hair with "time" in mind.
