I used a chemical straightner in my hair almost a year ago. I did it twice with about a month of time rest between the sessions.
Ever since then, my hair was never completely straight (like the box said it would be) and it was never curly like it used to be.
I miss my curly curly hair and have been tryin different things to make it activate again. I cut it to my shoulders (it used to be to the middle of my back), used deep conditioners, used “scrunch” gel, curl activator cremes, sprays, oils… nothing seems to help my spiral come back…
I’m wondering if the curl is damaged at the root? does anybody whos done perms know what to use to help the curl come back?? I desperately want my curls back.
Thank you.
PS: I have a mixed hair type. Thick, semi course, but soft.
it is now a little below my shoulders. I have colored and highlighted it in the past month too.
HELP PLEASE!
