When was the last time you...

[sareca]

October 6th after takedown. I lightly blowdried it. Straightening helps me ensure all the knots are out.

It was sometime this month. I blowdried my hair on a temp setting of 125 degrees.

July 25th, and it caused a lot of breakage cuz I hadn't retouched in 15 weeks (yikes!). It ripped and roared. I haven't used it since then, but people have tried to break me. I've been bunning it. I almost went to the dominicans in August, but I said "resist the urge, girl; resist the urge!"

I may use heat in November after I retouch to do a length check, but that's it!

September 24

And hopefully that will be the last time this yr.

Pray for me.

Temples and frontal hair - August 29th. I was doing a modelling job and had to get the front of my hair to be the same texture as the hair piece.

Rest of my head - July 4th.

May 2003. been a long long time to me.

 

[HoneyDew]

I always flat-iron my hair once a week after airdrying.

The last time was 2 days ago on Wednesday after I washed my hair.

I have used my Carusos a few times since then, but I don't count that.

 

[JustKiya]

Hmm...the last time I used heat in my hair? Most likely sometime in Early to Mid 2000 - I'm sure I tried to press my hair straight - just ONE more time to see if I could rock the straight hair.
*sigh*

 

[RainbowCurls]

May.
Now I'm sure it's all different lenghts and would look ridiculous straight.
Plus any direct heat would probably fry the coloured parts.

 

[Vshanell]

Yesterday, I rollerset and sat under the dryer then flat ironed a little bit of the roots.

 

[Blkbeautyhair]

On Monday. I deep a roller set. But this is my second time using heat in about 3 months. I just had a touch up 2 weeks ago. I plan on roller setting for the next month and then reverting back to air drying for another 3 months until my next relaxer. (hopefully). I'm finding that after air drying for so long I hate sitting under the dryer for an hour. It didn't bother me before now I get antsy.

 

[Maestradiva77]

Last time I used heat---June 2001.

 

[plove]

In April, I'm trying to make it to next April with no heat.
That will be a year heat free.

 

[Enchantmt]

A week ago. I straightened it to see the length and to cut it, but I couldnt find my hair scissors. I ended up getting it cut on tuesday, which turned out better. I'm really happy with it and the girl that did it kept most of my length.

 

[Max2004]

I use heat 2X per week. Hooded dryer to dry after shampoo and conditioner and to hot curl.

 

[MrsHouston]

The last time I used heat was July, 2003. I don't miss it either.

Wow, that's excellant Isis. So over 3 years!

I was planning on waiting a year to use heat. I know that "no heat" does wonders for my texture. I have only used heat in the past for flat ironing (on special occasions). However, now I'm thinking of just doing the large roller set and wrap afterwards to preserve my texture.

 

[aprilj]

August of this year and I have seen a major difference. My hair has become so much more healthier. Less shedding, no breakage, and no split ends. I haven't had to trim/dust my ends since I've stopped (2 mos ago).

 

[MrsHouston]

I don't even know. It's been years.

Years? Wow, that's a long time it you can't even remember

 

[MrsHouston]

Does everyone consider rollersetting under the dryer, using heat. I thought this was a healthy way of doing your hair...I'm guilty of this.

Weekly. I rollerset and dry under my soft bonnet dryer every Saturday. Sorry to say but my hair is rejecting airdrying at this time so it will be weekly roller sets under the dryer until I can go back to airdrying without so much hair loss.

I used my maxiglide two weeks ago to smooth out my roots but before then was back in July.

 

[MizaniMami]

The last time I used heat was Sept 27, 06. I use heat once every 2-3 mos. This time I am going through a 3 month stretch though. No heat until x-mas.

I love my sedu and I don't every plan on giving up heat. Just only in moderation. But the blowdryer+comb attatchment, HAD to go!

 

[dynamic1]

The last time I used direct heat was when I straightened my hair during the 2nd week of September. Prior to that, I heat straightened in the middle of February.

 

[nyreebnks]

2 months ago I used heat , I was going to an party and I needed my 4 a/b hair to be flat

 

[Faith]

The last time I used direct heat was about 8 months ago. Not sure when I will touch direct heat again, my hair is loving it...less split ends.

 

[toniy]

September...trying to hold off until Jan 07

 

[*Happily Me*]

The last time I used heat was July, 2003. I don't miss it either.

you really are my inspiration.
i've been using heat less, around once a month if that... my hair would just take off it I would stop using it all together! dayum maxiglide...

ETA - the answer to the question is 2 weeks ago

 

[luvSLave]

If you count rollersetting I used heat last week when I got a touch up. I go 10-12 weeks between relaxers and will usually get a blowout once during that period, although the last 6 months or so I've airdried consistently between touch-ups.

 

[angelita842002]

I used heat in October but before that only one other time. I plan to do it on thanksgiving and christmans but i alwasy deep condition before and after and am so careful. I only use heat like 4 or 5 times a year.

 

[tenderheaded]

April 19,2006. I retired my Solia flatiron and blowdryer. I can see the difference it's made. However, I'm 12 weeks post and that Solia keeps calling me - come on, you know you wanna
