Which doesn't sound too bad...maybe your doo smells funky for a night but after a wash it's all good, eh? That's what I thought too. So I invested in the Ion Conditioning Ceramic straightener, ionic and ceramic makes it the superhero of all straighteners according to my research. But it literally fried my hair. I have 3c type curls which are incredibly hard to straighten, so I did it to the extreme (450 degrees the max temp). The more I straightened, the more permanent it became. My hair turned stick, straw-like, all bounce left in the past. So the trite message I send to all curly girls, don't over do it. Mom was right, everything in moderation. I hope none of you learn this by experience, goodluck. Catherine If the straightener is too hot, it WILL burn your hair.
