CHI Permanant Thermal Hair Straightening: the final product

I got my hair straightened yesterday. We did the CHI process. It took about 4 hours because my hair is a little long and she had to apply two types of treatment because I have colored hair that is growing out, and about 3 inches of virgin hair at the roots. It was kind of annoying sitting there all that time, but they were really nice and offered me snacks. They even had two people work on blow drying and one hold the hair while the other applied the chemicals to make it go faster. I was surprised the stuff didn't smell very bad, and I got really good results! Now for the upkeep with some good conditioners, and I'm super happy!!!! Yay, finally straight, easy to manage pretty hair!!!

salliy's got it for thirty five bucks, but you will want a friend to apply it for you

@c0uchsl0uch this treatment is NOT something you can buy cheaply at a products store. Sure, you can get the shampoo and conditioner for upkeep, but the treatment itself is not available without professional training.

I love chi products. I had not heard of this one though. is it in walmart?

[mistangelz]

@casagrandecats No, this is not a regular product! This is a long, intensive treatment that can only be done in a salon.

I'm not sure if this asked before, and sorry if it has! I was wondering...can you do any other styling after its straightened? Like, if you wanted to put some curls in it, does it hold or fall out? I have semi wavy frizzy hair that if I want it to look nice I have to blow dry, but I do like to curl it every once in awhile. I had heard that once you do this, it won't really curl anymore. Have you tried it and had any luck?

@laurendorsett My hair has really never held a curl even when it was natural or just dyed. but I've found that using a ceramic curling rod keep the curl until you wash your hair (even days!) its crazy amazing. so yes, its possible to still style it. its been about 8 months since my last treatment and before i go out i just run the flat iron thru it and bend in the ends and it stays nicely and looks so pretty :)

Buy the kit and do it at home. Read instructions, follow through and you'll get the same results. What you don't understand nowadays can always be googled up. The process may seem long, but the difficulty of the procedure is not tedious whatsoever. Save yourself a hundred bucks or two, knowlegde up :)
