Hi,
Hair straightening is not permenant. It will remain till new curly hairs grow. You may apply oil on the straightened hairs,if you wish. Actually oiling the hairs will enhance the improvement in softness of the hairs. You should avoid frequent direct shampooing the scalp. Mild shampoo..herbal in nature and diluted in water twice week should be done. Almond oil may be used,as it contains vitamin E.
Hope for the good result..
Thanks.
