brazillian blowout.

BEFORE:
crazy hair

i know this one is a big frightening...my hair was up beforehand but we wanted a classic "before" picture so the lady at the salon took it down and we snapped one before i looked in the mirrorrr

AFTER:
straight straight straight

okay well it's not actually stick straight like this picture.
the result is wavy hair that is 10 times easier to straighten than before.
it's SO soft, i just can't stop touching it.
it will last about 10-12 weeks and fade out back to my regular old hair.
i like it alot, but in all reality i probably won't do it again, i just like my big curly hair.
but it's a fun adventure, happy about it.



the process for those who care:
it took about 3.5 hours (it was longer on me then normal folks because my hair is so curly/thick, they said originally that it was a 90 minute process.)
first, they wash it with some crazy shampoo that supposedly WASHES it good and strips any hair product that is in there so as to not mess up the process.
next, they brush the product on every bit of hair...this part takes a bit of time just because they make sure to go through every piece of hair.
then they blow dry the hair so it just gets to be a bit of a fro, nothing looks different yet.
then the part that REALLY takes forever is that they straighten every little bit. they do it in little sections and go over it a few times just to make sure that it's absolutely straight, the heat activates the solution that they previously put on.
almost done, they rinse the hair with coldish water then condition it
and finally they blow dry it straight/straighten it and voila! done.
