Question I read about this and I realise that it doesn't work on African-American hair, but I would like to know if it works on bi-racial hair? I've seen some hair salons saying it does, but others don't mention bi-racial (black&white) so I wonder if you know? Thanks
Answer Chloe,
Actually, the process works very well on African American hair. The problem is that the hair then requires a lot of moisturizing to avoid breakage. As for what textures to use it on, it depends on the actual texture of your hair and its need for moisturizing. I've done the service on most ethnicities of hair without incident. Just be sure that the stylist doing the service is adept at the service and familiar with different textures and their needs.
Best of luck to you.
