Carla hair straightener and my curly hair!

January 16, 2008 11:14pm CST
Hi, I have wavy hair. I tried all types of haircuts, but I had to keep my hair trimmed. One day at the salon my barber convinced me to straighten it. It worked like a charm, however I have moved to the USA and can't find this straightener anywhere, not even using the internet. All I know is it is called "Carla" and it is from Philippine. Does anyone know where I can order this online? the only other thing that i found to work as well is called "soft n free" but i can't find it here either (there is a product but it's for african american hair, and doesn't work either for me). please help me out, thank you

I have a curly hair but I don't straighten it because I am afraid of damages from chemicals. I think you just have to search the ebay or find it in the internet. I don't know where that thing in US because I am in the Philippines but I think you can let someone buy it here and send it there in the US.

yeah i've been searching on the internet for maybe 2 years! all i've found are some vague forums where somebody mentions its existence...and then nothing! unfortunately i don't have any contacts in Philippines anymore, so i can't buy it that way.

Are you from Philippine?if yes,try to find some people from your country living in the us and explain them your case or if you could get contact with the barber in your country ask him to post you the etiquette on the straightener and then it'll be easy for you to ask about it in the US.

i was once used this "carla" and my hair get burned, yeah it is a high level straightener, i think it is so concentrated, and don't use it without the guidance of a barber or hair stylist

Hi, if you have the luck of having natural wavy hair, you really should thnk of the chance of getting really nice bouncy, shiny curls; my hair is super straight and I always use curling tools for this, considering you natural hair, you really should reinforce your natural condition, there is this one web page http://www.curlingironreviews.com where you can buy and read reviews of many curling irons, then I'll be waiting for your comments!!

Hi, maybe you should try going back to your curly hair, but this time try to really define you curls, make them as bouncy and shiny as possible, there this one web site [url=http://www.curlingironreviews.com]Curling iron reviews[/url] where you can reda reviews and buy many different curling irons, if you have the luck to have natural wavy hair, you really should take advantage of that, I always curl my hair (it's really straight!!), and I get very nice results with these kind of tools!
