Yeah, a close friend of mine had it done
It does work, but on her it looked a bit odd close-up because, well, it's hard to explain but it looked like curly hair that was straight, if that makes any sense. It did stay straight for a few months though although she had to be quite careful with washing and rain and stuff I think. But she had REALLY curly hair

Mind you, I honestly can't imagine why anyone would want to go from just wavy to straight. Wavy is just generally much more attractive.

i don't mind curls and i don't mind waves
but the problem with mine is that with london water it goes frizzy and THAT is just awful. so it's the frizz i'm really looking to tame.

thank you, this is good info.

£300 would easily buy you 6 months worth of Evian to wash your hair in, though ;)

ha
but then it would be cold. which is good for sealing the cuticles after conditioning and making it sleek, i suppose...

Is there not a Brita filter type thing
that you can put on your shower to stop the water being so mingy? Mine does exactly the same but as it's curly already it just goes horribly afro-like.
If there isn't one, someone on here should invent one but I want a cut of at least 30%...
