Hi! Or: Hello America!
I write from Germany, please excuse my English mistakes.
At weekend my twin-daughters have an appointment at the hairdresser. They will get a straightening in a shop, which works with Wella Products. So I think they will get it with Wella Straight.
Could you please answer me some simple (and stupid ;-) ) questions:
how does it work?
which are the steps (?) in which the hairdresser straightens the hair?
how often has the hair to be washed? how long must the liquids stay in the hair?
how often has it to be ironed (is this the right word?) ?;
what kind are the liquids and chemicals and how does it feel (and smell)?
how often within a year has it to be repeated?
and what are your experiences with it?
I live in the near of Berlin, and because a straightening in Germany would be very expensive, we drive to Poland

Sorry, I forgot:
We are "old" europeans, so my girls have european hair.

Hello Cenescha
Are your daughters very certain that they want the straightening treatment? Straightening feels nice at first, but for some people the hair becomes severely damaged. It is also expensive to redo the treatment every several weeks, especially if you have to drive to Poland. I would think twice about the treatment.
You said your two daughters' hair is long and thick, and never had chemical treatment done.. it sounds very beautiful already.

I see Well good luck to you and your girls!
I don't know the exact steps, but I'm sure other people will post on this thread to explain the straightening process.

Sorry made a mistake,
I just checked my e-mails from the salon in Poland. They work with the Chi Trans. System not with Wella. I think it's a great difference.

be very careful with the chi transformation system. take a look at http://www.hairboutique.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28344&KW=chi+transformation+system&TPN=1 - this thread . it will explain the side effects that could occur.

Oops. Yes,happens, like we in Germany say, - too. Thats the risk at every chemical treatment, I think. There is no reason to distrust the hairdresser, or. I will be the whole time with my girls and watch it what he's doing - with argus eyes. Even it will last eight hours. On the homepage of a German salon which works with the Chi system I read, that's possible to dye with the Farouk products at the same day, so we will keep the appointment and do this tomorrow, too. I think its better to do it in one session. So it will be one hard day at the hairdresser with first haircut, straightening and dye, and not a process of two or three weeks. It's difficult enough to direct them to the salon the first time. M.

Hi Anais, you see I'm still awake, though it's 1:45 am in Germany. I'm a little nervous, and can't sleep. My husband is on night shift, so I'm alone. My kids are sleeping. Just the cat holds the fort.

And now it's time to go to Poland ! Our appointment is at 9:00 MET. And I think we will be back at 22:00 with long straightened hair or short curls, we'll see.
Keep your fingers cross.

I got a bit confused by your posts. Isn't it your daughter's choice on whether they get their hair done or not? Maybe you didn't mean it that way but it sounded like you were forcing them into it.

HFO --
I do think it was quite rude to criticize you when you hadn't asked for anyone's opinion on your hair.
Famous quote: "Mama always said - 'if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all.'"
