I've heard a lot about your hair being burnt w/ hot combs and flat irons and curling irons so that you lose your natural curl.
Have any naturals, especially type 4's (I'm assuming our hair is the most fragile so most likely to be burnt straight), been able to straighten their hair to a very straight style (not half straight/half frizzy) and then wash it and have it return to curliness/nappiness? If so, how? I want to straighten my hair to trim it soon, and just in general I'm sure I would like to wear my hair straight every once in a while so I want to make sure I won't lose my texture.
