Preparation for Blow-dry and Flat-Iron

[TRINITY05]

Ladies:

I am a natural 4B and I need to prepare for my blow-dry and flat iron. I was thinking maybe I should apply some cholesterol throughout my hair and keep it in overnight and when I wake up rinse and apply a deep conditioner and sit under some heat for 20 minutes. What do you guys think?

If you are a natural, how have you prepared for your blow-dry and flat-iron?

I haven't applied heat to my hair and don't plan to for a long time. But when I do, I'll be making sure to deep condition overnight, then oil rinse and cowash with a moisturizing conditioner. Each of these steps will contain ceramides.
