Thanks everyone for the nice feedback- I never thought I'd get to this point! Yes, I did/do have curly hair (not as curly as at first), but my hairdresser straightened it out. Its always been very thick and frizzy, and always been a battle. Now, its still thick, but a lot finer and straightens much easier. A lot lighter too. She said she didn't have to foil it nearly as much. I asked her, "Are you sure that its lighter, and not just alot grayer?!" :-) Good grief, some days I feel like I skipped over forty years and I'm eighty!!!!! HA HA

Love, Kelly
