I will be honest and I am going to answer this question through a personal opinion and not from a professional view.
I had the straightening done on my hair. I was the Guinea Pig at the salon and it did not work on my hair, at all. I consider my hair ethnic. It is more like a category of it's own, but when I have to choose it closest resembles ethnic hair.
My best advice is to find an African American hair stylist. She does her own hair every day and has more experience. Perhaps she has had success with the Japanese Straightening System on ethnic hair. She will hopefully give you an honest answer.
My hair actually looked worse when the process was done than when I started.
You could straighten my hair still with a flat iron, but big deal. I was able to do that prior to the process. My hair was frizzier than ever when done and the company actually gave me a full refund.
