so atm im chemically straigthening my hair with this stuff that lasts a week.. ill write this as it develops and then tell you guys how it goes at the end!

so far its good I have to leave this gel on for 15 minutes it stinks real bad my hair is usually wavy and its poker straight and its only been 6 minutes. my hair has lots of layers and comes just below my shoulders and ive only used 1/3 of the bottle and its covered my whole hair.

oook its been 10 minutes now my hair is feeling a little dry but i think its because the gel is drying on my hair. the stuff you put in it first is a gel.. the smell is still yuck. This stuff cost me $30 and when you buy it you get $60 worth of shampoo conditioner and serums. You have to comb your hair whilst its still in otehrwise your hair goes a little curly.


it doesnt burn i was expecting it to but I cant really feel it and my scalp is pretty sensitive. I just washed it out hair is pretty straight REAAAAAALLLL dry though i think ive wrecked my hair. On the box it says it doesnt cos it doesnt use chemicals so im not sure.


I put some cream in it now it feels good im about to wash it out i just washed it out it feels ok a bit dry though


so i put in some styling products and have let it dry naturally and its dead straight and it feels awesome. a little dry but its still fine. Im so happy with the results and ive got about 3 more applications to use.

the stuff is called Easy Straight.

Which one did you use? The one week or the 3 month straightener?

^She said it lasts a week at the beginning so I'd assume the one week.

Congrats for getting up the courage to try it though! My parents won't let me try it, my mom's convinced any chemical straightening professional or not will ruin my hair completely. =/
Hope it goes well! Give us some updates later!

1 week. I only used it to tell my friend how it works.. also there products are good so if i spent $30 i got $60 work of stock free.

i used the one week. I probably wont do it again unless i was going away on holidays. Its all done now its straightish but ill still need to use straighteners on it. much better thanbefore though

There's a Japanese hair salon near my house that does chemical straightening, but idk how expensive it is or if it's any better than doing it yourself.

I've been too scared to try it though lol :P

most straightening ranges from 150 - 650. real expensive.

ive woken up and my hair is very straw like doesnt look it but it feels it. Im putting in a protien treatment to fix it up. its still quite straight.
