I've had one white girl do my hair, and she did an ok job. She worked in a majority black salon, so I wasnt too worried.

I"m really looking for a quality, reasonably priced salon in the DC area for my permed hair. :( I have dry scalp and some breakage, especially in the back of my hair, any suggestions?

Until you find a salon, give yourself weekly Aphogee protein treatments. It will instantly stop the breakage.

UGH, I HATE That stuff!! It smells terrible (especially the stuff you have to sit under the dryer with and it gets all hard). ...*Grumbling, next paycheck is spent already..* I'mma just go a head and get two strand twists. *pout*

Yes, its not pleasant, but it does stop the breakage with one use though. Girl, you know being beautiful is NEVA easy! :p

I know, I know. I"m working on the looking part and trying to start Feeling beautiful too... *le sigh*

ok, end hijack.. lol

Emergencee by Nexxus is also great for stopping breakage. That breakage will stop almost instantly. I have had mixed results with Aphogee prodcuts.

My hair is past my shoulders and extremely thick...

I was born with a head "fulla" hurh... So much, that I may have an "open fontenelle" (sp.?) in my skull... :rolleyes: :p :)

Anyhow, when I was little, my mom sent me to this one hair stylist that had biracial kids... My hair at the time was almost to my butt... And the thickness... Whew... When she got done with me, I look ruff and stuff with my afro puffs... I tell yah, clueless...

As I have had relaxers for many years now, I am beginning to see more and more folks who are not African American going into this market. They say they like it because of all the chemicals we use to make our hair a certain way...

I've seen one caucasian woman do up some hair--well...

But for me, there was this gay blonde haired, blue eyed 6'2" man that could work it with my hurh... And he lovededededed workin' with some sistah's hurh... But his boy tole 'em dat ain't no sistahs gonna let no tall white man touch dey hurh!!! I tole 'em if he do up the hurh right, then the sistahs don't give a DAYUM!!!

Homeboy worked with my scalp so well that my hurh grew!!! :eek: And my hurh was really short due to breakage from coloring... But, he left the salon... Then I moved...

But, I can tell you with an aunt that is a cosmetologist in Vegas, many a non-black folks are rapidly trying to get African American clients...

I only let black stylists cut my hair.
