Dominican Blowout on Natural Hair

For my birthday I decided to treat myself to a salon style.  I got a Dominican Blowout and asked that the stylist use my products.  It was a Dominican salon which I did end up using a few times.  I was 64 weeks and 3 days post relaxer, well past year one of my transition from relaxed to natural hair.  I had a mini chop recently and did still see some breakage on the right side of my hair.

I took my WEN Fig Cleansing Conditioner, Herbal Essences long term relationship leave-in and my Sabino Moisture Block.  I have yet to have a stylist out right tell me that they will not use my products.  For this visit there was no argument at all, she used my products with no questions.  I had her do a roller set and then blow out my roots, which is traditionally called a Dominican blowout.  I did not take photos while at the salon but I did take a photo when I got home.  She got my hair pretty straight and I was pleased with the results.  She was gentle with my hair and mentioned that her daughter is also natural with curly hair similar to mine.
