    Ooh Varuca, hair straightening is really, really bad. It will damage your hair. I know someone who had it down and she really regretted it.

    NY Magazine did a writeup on it, I think- or mybe it was Time Out. The article said that the legal amount of fomaldehyde is like 0.02% but that most spas tested had like 7%!!!!! I would def look into the percentage used before you do it.

    Yeah, I saw that article (Allure ran something similar at around the same time.) LOTS of formaldehyde.
