I’ve been straightening hair for more than 30 years now. I started providing this service to help people who could not maintain their curly hair or wanted to change the texture so they could spend less time styling their hair. Back then, stylists tried lots of things to straighten hair. We used flour. We even used plastic panels and cardboard to make the hair straight. As a result of all the relaxers they were using, many people ended up with extensive damage, including hair breakage.

I was searching for a better approach when a friend from Japan brought back Liscio products for me to try. The first time I used the Liscio system, I was impressed. It truly straightened the hair, and just as importantly, did not damage it. I’ve never been completely satisfied with other products because they didn’t produce perfectly straight hair. With Liscio products, you can see right away after rinsing that the hair is straight. And you can feel the difference. When you dry the hair after rinsing, the hair is smooth and silky to the touch. My clients could see and feel the difference too.

Eventually, the Liscio distributor invited me to teach a seminar on Liscio Thermal Reconditioning to stylists. It was hard at first but once I convinced the stylists to feel the hair, they were hooked. After that, it was easy. Clients spread the word about the great results they achieved with Liscio and very quickly, more and more stylists started coming to the seminars.
