Flat-iron on damp hair!! what does it do to your hair????

i flatiron my hair regularly at home with "ghd" and take real good care of my locks... i use fab products etc... my hair is my crown... So i had my hair trimmed slightly(or that was the request!) at a new stylist today, and he actually flatironed my hair whilst damp!! i had a heart attack in the salon!

how bad is it for my hair to still be damp when ironed???

and what do i do to any damage?

I don't actually use a flat iron but my daughter does. She says that it is actually better to have damp hair while straightening. The flat iron is like 20 times hotter than a regular curling iron, hence possible burning dry hair at a faster rate. I'm sure your stylist knows what he is doing. After all, he wants you to return right? Beside, your trying to create a steaming effect.

Wait until it's dry..

Or your hair will look dry and puffy and frizzy...and even then dont do it on a regular basis or the same thing will happen..not as bad..but it still will.
