Is it good for you to sit in a steam room? I mean I know sweating is not bad for you. I hate going in those cause my hair gets all frizzy. LOL The joy of having curly hair.... LOL
but are there benefits to it?

You can put a tower on your head when going to a sauna, and that will keep away the afro .gif ";)")
Just don't be there too long, you don't want to look like a raisin with an afro...  Foxy Raisin!
