Question

I've always had dry and rough hair, even since I was born, and I've been dreaming of having soft, silky hair. My hair is also pretty thick, and I've been considering treatments like smoothening and straightening. I'm just worried about how these might affect my hair in the long run. Is there something else I should be doing? Are there alternative methods I might not have thought about?
