Can anyone explain the technique that is used, I just pressed my hair out about 1 hour ago, and it always seem cooked. I used the chi, it did not have a way to turn it down. My sister is upset because I used it, and I could cause it to break, But My hair I feel is never the same, Its curly when its wet, but once its dry the curly are gone, and its almost like a thick, kinky, straight hair. I am envious of some of the naturals with thick, tight curls. I have lost that. So how do you press without the burnt smell, what products to use? I have no technique, just press and expect it to frizzy up to a ball in an half and hour. Oh and after I am done pressing I just put it in a ponytail, any styles suggestion even if it gets frizzy? GREAT THREAD!!
