So I'm at a point

Where I don't want to straighten my hair anymore. I'm too afraid of any potential damage that can set me back and I don't want it. I burned my hair straight something terrible back in '08 and lost a LOT of progress. I'm trying to retain as much length as possible before I lock because of the shrinkage. I MIGHT straighten one last time before I do lock. I don't know. We'll see.
