NEVER COMB YOUR HAIR DRY EITHER AFTER WASHING OR SPIRTZ THE HAIR WITH WATER.
BE PATIENT WHEN DETANGLING
ALWAYS USE WIDE TOOTH COMBS
BRAID YOUR HAIR OR TWIST YOUR HAIR AT NIGHT FOR A EASY PROTECTIVE STYLE UNDO IN THE MORNING
AVOID HAIR DRYER AND CURLING IRONS: NO HEAT IF YOU CAN
DON'T LET OTHERS CHANGE YOUR MIND BY ASKING WHEN ARE YOU GETTING A PERM REMEMBER YOU ARE DOING THIS FOR YOU
