Does Straightening Damage curls?

x-luckygirl-x

I read a review of a straightener made by a person claiming the straightener turned her curls to frizz. I didn't think that straighteners changed the texture of your hair unless you straighten it when it's wet. I like the way my hair looks straigtened, but I definetly don't want to lose my natural curl because I wear it curly more anyway. Do any of you know anything about this? :happy2:

I would think it is more the fact that you are damaging your hair each time you straighten, in return creating more frizz and less healthy curls.

It does damage your hair. I know from experience. I've been straightening my hair with a flat iron for a few years and the front part of my head remains straight with a very, VERY slight curl. All the heat loosened my curls and they are very frizzy. Just say no to heat....
