Ah i see. Oh that must be annoying, but i guess it's true they do dry out your hair... but still, if you have good conditioned hair anyway like your hairdresser said it wont do too much harm.
I suppose you'll just have to steal them when she's out and then pretend you hair dried straight :P
but i have this new plan. see i'm going to get a friend of mine call the house phone and talk to my mom and have her tell my mom that we accidentally switched our hair straighteners so that i have my friends and she has mine and that her mom was going to come and pick up her straightener. that way my mom can give me the straightener without knowing, and i can just take it and hide it :)
i just read this whole thing... hahha i seriously wish i had some advice to give you... your mom's kindof psycho, haha. i would suggest talking to her, but that obviously won't work... hm...
