Dominican Straightening or "Blow-Out" Method

Hey ya'll I have been hearing a lot about the Dominican method of straightening hair. They use this on natural as well as relaxed African American hair. In the past I have heard it is damaging to African American hair due to the heat as well as the pulling and tension involved with the round brush. Well I watched tons of videos today, and in most of the videos I have seen the hair came out shiny, health looking, and bouncy. I think this technique is something I might want to try in home, but I am still skeptical. What do you guys think?

Update 5/29/2012

Hi all,     So I know I haven't posted in a while, but a lot has been going on in my life to prevent me from doing leisurely activities such as creating blog posts. I know the last post I made was for Valentine's day and that was  like 3 months ago so just a bit has changed since then. I guess the most drastic change in my life is that I FINALLY graduated from college! Yes, after 5 years I finally have my degree. The thing is is that I was in some hard classes and some BS classes. I was really worried about my hard classes because I had to get a C in them to graduate. Those of you in college know how hard it is to get a C in your hardest classes.

My last semester grades were great though! In my Economics 371: Expense Analysis class I got a A, Ec...

Don't Always Have a HAND OUT Sometimes You Should Lend A Helping Hand

As I stated in my previous blog it seems like many times I am on the giving end instead of the receiving end of many situations, as I also said many people are in this world doing and living for themseleves seeing what they can get out of the next man, or what the next person can do for them. I was always taught this is a selfish world, but that is not the person I am which makes it hard for me to understand why other's are that way, but that is not what my blog is about. Today I was getting some lunch and the man working behind the counter asked me what my major was, I told him Public Administration with a Political Science minor, I also told him I wanted to get my masters in Public Administration and go to law school. He then asked me what kind of law I wanted to practice. I told him I wanted to be either a divorce lawyer, or a child and family lawyer. He then told me he had talked to many students and most had said they wanted to do entertainment or business law, not thinking ...

Don't Force Upon Yourself More Than You Can Bear

I am currently sitting at my THIRD job, with my morning coffee, hair askew, and trying to hold my eyes open. Why are you so tired? I know that's what you're thinking, but let me tell you my schedule for today: 10:30p Bedtime 04:00a -08:00a DA at the desk in my apartment building 08:00a-11:00a Receptionist at the front desk of the BCC 11:45a-03:00p Class 03:15p-5:00p work I have just started this schedule this week and I already feel like it is taking a toll on me. I am not sure I will be able to continue to work all these shifts as well as go to class. My question is: Is it worth it? Should I quit atleast one of my jobs? What do you guys think? If I neglect to post a blog for a long time you all know why! And for those of you who do not comment but do read my blogs, I WOULD like to know your opinion, and instead of just telling me TYPE it, others might need the advice too! Anyways have a good day everyone!
