Would You Sacrifice The Health Of Your Hair?

Suppose you had some important event(date, banquet,etc.) to go to which came up at the last minute.  You look in the mirror and your hair is just out of control, and not going your way. The only way to whip things into a decent fashion is to flat iron(or any form of styling that damages) it out with some good ole' grease, or whatever you use. Your on a no heat regimen. Would you skip the thing because of the health of your hair, or flat iron A.S.A.P? What would you do?

PS: Thought this would be funny discussion.

[QUOTE=longhairgrower]Sometimes I when I have a special occasion to attend and my hair is unruly Ill use heat on my hair because I dont think that one day using heat will hurt because I don't ever use heat any other time, but I always make sure that the next day I use some kind of  reconstructor or deep conditioner just to be on the safe side[/QUOTE]

ITA.  I don't think one day of using heat outside of your normal regimine would be too bad as long as you're careful.  Shoot, if my hair was lookin tore up and I had to go somewhere you're doggone right I'd break out that flat iron.

Wow!  Did they change the look of this ole thing?  Looks a lot different.  Anyhow, I can't even begin to explain how fast I would put a flat iron to my hair at the last minute!  Taggi, I am starting to realize your ideology when it comes to using multiple products.  I use about 3 products every day, but I believe I'm using way too much for my hair.  I get that nasty residue when I touch it, and it gets onto papers, like Soul Glo.  HAHA! I just want nice smooth hair, which I used to have until my flat ironed started pooping out!  80 bucks for a few months of NOTHING.  Maybe I just need a good ole' blow dry, I have been sparing myself for the last three weeks with air dries!  I hate it.  This week I totally sacrficed what little hair health I had and flat ironed 3 times.  My hair was in a rut, with new growth!
