AFAIK you get it done in a hairdressers and it lasts for about 6 weeks each time. I know of people who have done it, and it worked nicely.

I think it's like the opposite of a perm.

i get it done and its easy u get a perm lotion and instead of putting the hair in curlers you just comb it straight, works a treat.

anyones that you can do yourself at home?

Cutie18Ireland

most of them u can and the perm lotion doesnt cost more than a tenner...

I saw a 'permanent' straightening kit in boots, their own brand just a couple weeks back.

Would you blow dry it aswell, or leave it dry naturally? And
in your opinion whats the best product to use. oh and how long would that last for, approx. Sorry for all the questions,
was just wondering,

well i had mine done months and months ago and apart from having had quite a bit chopped off my hair it would have been fine... any perm lotion works but my mam was a hairdresser years ago and she said she used velveteen all the time and it was brill, last time i blowdried mine and was great!
