[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish my daughter would straighten her hair. She looks stunning with straight hair, instead she insists on going out with puffy, unruly hair that does not flatter her at all. If she would put it up in a pony tail or a french braid, she would look much better. She does it when she interns or works in an office during the summer.

I have offered to pay for Japanese straightening or for keratin treatment, but she has not taken the bait. She gets her hair styled and professionally straightened whenever we are attending a wedding or a big do and she wants to look good. So why would she not get it done? She is a hypochondriac and she has decided that all chemical treatments will make her hair fall out and damage her brain cells.  She has also asked me to embrace her 'troll child" (her words) the way she is.

I am trying! I am trying![/quote]

your daughter might have good instincts about her own body.

I am really sensitive to chemicals. I am 50, but have experienced various skin reactions (like eczema) off and on since my teens. I finally was recently tested for chemical allergies, and it turns out i'm allergic to all sorts of chemicals, the worst offenders being in the hair care lines. Especially the stuff used in perms. I imagine the chemicals used for straightening aren't much better.

Please, everyone, be careful with the chemicals you use. Many of the harmful effects don't even hurt us directly, but can hurt our unborn kids ([b]ie, get into their genes[/b])[/quote]

Yeaaaaaaaaaah, I'm going to need to see a some hard, peer reviewed, rigorous data on a claim like this [/quote]
