My curly tresses had been destroyed by hypothyroidism's curse of dry, coarse, broken, damaged hair. I could do nothing with it but put it up in a pony tail, and even then it looked horrible and so unprofessional at work. Even when my thyroid levels were normalized, my hair did not come back the way it was previously, and my wedding is in two and a half months.

After almost a year of this disastrous hair I was depressed and desperate, not knowing where to turn, especially after trying several top hair salons and various products, to no avail. Then the other day, I remembered that my hair salon has a service called Japanese hair straightening. They did a strand test to see if my hair was too damaged to have it done, but I passed.

I had it done yesterday, and after arriving home, my fiancee had a tear in his eye and nothing but words of praise for me. I could not believe it. My hair looked and felt so healthy, like pure silk or a baby's hair, and was completely transformed to silky, straight locks with no frizz. I looked like a totally different person. If I had a before and after picture, you would think it was two different women. I woke up today and only had to brush it and it was perfect! I can't wet it for 72 hours, but after this getting ready will be so simple. I went to the gym today and three guys were flirting with me, which hardly ever happened to me before. I would suggest this for anyone that wants a beautiful change and a much simpler way of living - low maintenance, yet beautiful.

It was expensive - I paid $450 and left a generous tip, but it was well worth every penny. My technician had been trained to do this and has spent the last five years doing Japanese straightening and told me despite all the hard work, he loves to do it because it makes women so happy and transforms their lives. He did not sit down for four to five hours, working diligently on every aspect of this process to make my hair a success. His name is Jose, and I am forever grateful to him. Now I can feel self assured and not worried about my looks for my upcoming bridal shower and wedding, and every day as well. There is so much I can do with my hair now that I could never do before.

I will definitely be a repeat customer and I just want everyone to know that it is worth the money and is nothing short of a miracle. Make sure the hairdresser is certified and has plenty of experience and find out what product they use. Do your homework and you will be so happy you took my advice. I don't need to get it redone for another 8-10 months!
