I wanted to get some input from yall. It will be 2 years of being natural in December. I usually go to get a flat iron and blowdry and the beautyshop. I have been doing this weekly with no damage. Now for the past 4 or 5 weeks in Memphis the weather was 100 degrees plus. I went to the beauty salon to get twist outs. My hair has broken mid ways up alot of strands. My hair appears thin. It was very very thick. I dont know what I did wrong. I kept it moisturized. Maybe it was because i put it in a high ponytail with an ouchless band once my twistouts got old. I think maybe it was because i got under the dryer at the salon with the twists( which were done to the scalp). Maybe the dryer dried my hair out,causing it to break. I see healthy twistouts on youtube alot, but they usually air dry. I am so depressed, now i feel like i have to start all over. It seems like getting it flat ironed once a week would have did damage, but it didnt.
