I have been on the Dominican challenge for more than three months and my hair is really beautiful.
But I must admit that I am really tired of spending my saturdays in the hair salon. The language barrier works my nerve and I realized that I have spent at least $500 since beginning the Dominican challenge. If I keep this up I will have spent over $1500 this year. I find this a bit ridiculous.
But I'm afraid to do my own hair. Everytime I try my ends become very dry and damaged. When I go to the DS they only blow my roots so the ends are spared from the heat. For some reason, I cannot mimick this process at home. If I want my hair as straight at home as they get it at the salon, I have to use my ceramic iron. The Sedu ceramic iron makes my hair look magnificent but the ends are doomed to hell. Okay, I admit, I SOMETIMES blow dry my hair when I can't bear the idea of sitting under a hood dryer for an hour plus. BUT my rollersetting abilities are not that great anyway. I just can't get the hair completely smooth on the roller. When I take the rollers out and try to blow the roots. The curls still have that "wet set" look if you know what I mean from back in the day.
What's a fiscally conservative sista to do?
