It took me a little under 30 minutes this morning, not including blow drying time. Not too bad, for how thick my hair is and how new to the process I am.
I caught my finger in it on Tuesday, though. That didn't feel good. lol.
I'm debating cutting my hair a similar length. The cut & style looks really good on you, but I'm not sure if my sickly thin-medium hair would look nearly as good. That said, you've convinced me to reattempt using a hair straightener!
@opal - This is actually a really awkward length for me because of how thick my hair is! I'm growing it out from a pixie cut, and I can't wait until it gets past this weird length.
