Hey hey, girly.
It's funny that you ask that because
she kinda turned
me onto the idea haha.
When I first went to her, she had asked me how straight I wanted to go and since my hair was a wreck (in actual knots, brittle as a bone, unintentional dreads; I laugh now but I was sobbing then lol) I
begged her to bonelax me. And she actually said she would, but I think after seeing the state of my hair and wanting me to keep some on my head, she went ahead and underprocessed it a little bit just to be safer. After going to her more often and reading some more of her reviews, I came to find out that their salon has a habit of texlaxing just a little bit to keep people's hair from frying and most, if not all, clients like that about them. At first I was pretty annoyed that I wasn't bone straight and considered asking for a corrective, but her underprocessing has helped my hair thicken and GROW like never before. Now that I've actually started a consistant HHJ, it just continues to thrive with her help.
But what I can suggest, if there's one close to you at all and you aren't going to one already, is looking into a natural hair salon or a salon with some natural hair stylists. The salon I go to has mostly white stylists and it definitely caters to a wide variety, but my black stylist is younger and more accustomed to working with natural hair types, so I think because of that she's way more concerned about the integrity of the hair than just slicking it down, you know. So that could make a difference.
