After reading it, let me know what you think

They “puriphy” your hair, then they section it in fours, then again to make sure they completely distribute the product on the hair strands. Then, they dry your hair witha paddle brush and hair dryer. Then, they straighten your hair in small sections up to 5 times to keep it straight. And it stays straight and keratin infused for up to 24 weeks with some. I think they tell you to wait awhile before you wash, like 72 hours.

Interesting.

Thank you for educationing me to Healthy hair journey. com. I really enjoyed this website.

she shows ways of protective styling

Basically. after a roller set if you wish, I section my hair [3 in the front, 2-3 on my sides, and 3 down the middle] I twist my hair as though i was twirling it around my finger. I coil it neatly, and tthen secure it [sometimes overnight]. In the morning or hours later, i uncoil them Finger tease them a little [position them just right] and voila.

There is always the option of letting it grow out long enough to just chop off all of the relaxer
but it is a viable option.

Ok…you’re turn to hook me up. What are bantu knots?

BTW, get yourself a big, ole floppy hat to wear over your headscarf when you’re in public. I learned this from a friend who would sooner slit her wrists than end up with frizzy hair. She would tie her hair down, then throw a stylist hat on top…always looked very nice

I am still waiting on my prods to get here. They’ve shipped already. I also went ahead and purchased a Salerm set. The intensive moisuturizer and the leave in i think. To use after the reconstructuring treatments. I read somewhere online that alot of salons use these products. I’ll invest in UNA and Alter Ego garlic treatments at another time. Saving money to go home to SC and then to the Bronx with the mister and I refuse to let my hair look a mess. I will be on the plane with a scarf wrapped tight around my hair and shades [he laughs at me, but I am so serious].

I still have to invest in a Pibbs 1500 blow dryer though. i am so … tempted to give into relaxer. It gets so hard to comb these roots of mine sometimes. Since I cant do a blowout I had to use a flat iron [hair ... please forgive me]. But i made it up to her by using the “baggie” method. I know this is going to sound crazy but I have to have moisture so i add a water based creme on my hair preferably olive oil creme moisturizer, i wrap it tightly, secure, and put a regular clear shower cap over my hair, then I wrap with my silk scarf. The result, supple-moisturized hair.

Also, I know this is the wrong discussion, but when you want to do waves, like after a blowout, I twist my hair into neat bantu knots and secure for awhile and take them out … gorgeous.

I’m curious about cellophanes now though. I wouldnt mind a clear one for extra shine.
