How often do you flat iron your hair???

[balisi]

Since going natural 9.5 months ago, I've flatironed only three times. When my hair was relaxed, I would flatiron 2-3 times per month, alternating with rollersets.

I used to flat iron my hair like twice a week. Now I only flat iron my hair once a month ! That's it--- and I hate to flat iron it once a month, I just do that to see how it looks fully straightened out and flat--monitor my progress. I live in rollerset land now .

I flat iron once per week. One week out the month, I wear my hair "wash and wear" curly, so it does get a break.

I use the Maxiglide (on 5) and I can't say enough about this. I use to use FHI when I was relaxed and for some reason, my natural hair DID NOT LIKE IT so I broke down and bought the MG. I really do believe the steam makes a HUGE difference.

I do use a de-frizzer (ThermaSilk Smoothing Gel) because I haven't found a heat protectant that I like. The last one I used was the one in the orange bottle by Matrix ...HATED IT!

1-2 times per month.

havent used one since early July. Probably wont for a whil, and I'm going to get Maxiglide. I'm on a no direct heat at home challenge till I get my hair right.

I've probably flat ironed between 3-4 times this year. The last two times were with the Sedu

I normally dont flat iron my hair unless it I am more that 6 weeks post. When I do, I only flat iron the roots. I bought a 1/2 inch iron and it works wonderfully on just the new growth!
