I have a friend who does the Brazilian Keratin..something. She gets it done every 6 months and I don't recall her having any issues. Her hair is almost kinky like and lives by it.

i should look into this too

i leave the house with nice straight hair....but the least bit of humidity in the air...or just a sprinkle of rain and it goes afro.

i don't know why i don't just leave it naturally curly!

but you know.....we always want what we don't have

They say the Brazilian one is not perm. its lasts about 3 to 4 months...it seems like the safer one to go with but 3 to 4 months is too short man

Is any of these solutions really permanent? What when your hair grows, wouldn't that part be curly by the roots?

I guess thats when the 3 - 4 months comes into play.

Brazillian? Isn't that when you shave off all the bush? What do you mean perm?

MM....are you bai or gyal?

since the title of the thread said 'women' and you posted i thought that you are a gyal

but since you don't know what we aer discussing....i am thinking you are a bai

i am confused

which is quite normal for me with regards to the nics on this board

I know about Brazillian!

I know someone that did that and yes as it grows the roots gets curly but mine isn't like that it has a wave at the mid lenght onwards so in the end it will work out for me but the feedback that I got so far is 50 50 .......VB is right...we always want what we don't have

I don't know about the Hair Straighteners. I like my hair bouncy

Cher me a borrow this thred lil bit.

What about Tattoos, I am thinking about getting one, but me scare the needles.

Dose it hurt?

Borrow away Sita ...I like my hair bouncy yeah but only the day you wash it its a nice hair day..next day yo rass can't get a comb though it lol...so I wanna be a little stress free for a few months!

As for the tattoo..well I guess it depends on the person, I know someone that can't handle pain but she got a small one and said it wasn't as bad as she thought but was glad it was over lol.
I think the noise of it is more scary than the actual process, I wouldn't lie it does hurt but not as much and when its over thats it no more hurting once you take care of it.
I say get a small one first...that way its quick and you'll know the type of pain and how much more of it you can take

Don't get any. I spent lots of money trying to get rid of mine. I now like the fact I have none. There is no reason to get tattoos. The girl's name I had on my arm made 3 babies since I knew her and now looks like a drag queen. I cannot for the life of me know what madness overtook me to put her name on my arm.

Cherie, I heard of the Japanese one. Apparently there is a salon downtown that does an excellent job. I will enquire and let you know.

Get two. One each side of your bambsie. This way, when you sit, you don't feel any pain, you just get excited like if someone is spanking you.

You ROCK..thanks!!

LMAO @ D2 and IGH ....it doesn't have to be someones name she can have a little one hid away

yeah, sita, don't start with a name unless it's your children's

I'm terrified of needle but I have a small one and as Cher said, the healing process was more painful than the moment it's being done. So if I can do it, you can

Just curious. What does it prove?
I don't expect Cher to respond, since it will break her vow

Thanks to all you wonderful people for your advises.

some make me can't stop laughing.

I will start with a small one and not a name unless its me kids.

I will wait until I come back from vacation, because it takes time to heal, according to my
little legal advisor I have home.

I still think you should put a name on your butt!

So even if you and dem fall out, you would have them kissing your ass everyday!

Mad Max you have any tattoo?

you seem to know a lot about this.

I have a paste on one.
Maybe you can try one of those first to see how it looks in the mirror

why a fake tattoo?

Trial and error.
Tattoo look good on some people but don't look good on other people.
The problem is if you get a real one on your butt you really can't go around asking people how it look.

But why would someone want a tattoo on their butt? if I decide to get one most likely it will be on my ankle

Hey Cherie, my SIL sister went to this one and she seemed happy with the results. She said it was pricey not sure how much she paid as her hair is quite long (like yours).

Hi Rosey Cheeks!! Thank you so much..I just called and it is pretty much the price that was told to me by others so not much of a difference. Now I just have to decide where to go lol ....doing my little research and by next weekend hopefully ..thanks again!

Good luck, the end results does look great.

Can your ankle tattoo jiggle?

me think you really choose the prefect name for your nick.

You have to realize that tattoos are a work of art. They need to show life and feeling, and passion! They make a statement.
How do you expect people to admire them?

especially if its on the bambsie!!

or other covered up body parts?

Very true!
Also has to be colorful, not green and dead

The ones around the ankle is a bit more painful cause it's right on the bone, I have 3 - 1 dedicated to my baby that passed away, 1 my children's initials and the other my sign. I'm sure you will do fine if you do decide to get any. Good luck.

I have a Chinese peace symbol behind my neck. Surprisingly it didn't pain at all.

Which one of my tats yall wanna hear bout?


Go for it Sita.

D2, is her "drag queen" look a result of having the three babies?
You were in love or totally drunk hence the insane decision to put her name on your arm!!!

Methinks the decision to rub it off was to avoid child support.

Nah, D2 is a man of honor.
