How to maintain your silk press while working out for black women
Переглядів 16 тис.2 роки тому
It took me years of trial and error to figure out a technique that works really well for keeping your edges laid and your roots with minimal swelling. My hair is natural and I always struggled with the trade offs between working out or having my hair look good. There are three keys to the methods to the technique: 1. A high quality sweat wicking headband that ties 2. Tension, you need to have t...
What about sweating throughout the scalp??
This could be a game changer if I could maintain my silkpress for more than 7 days
What is the name of your watch?
It's a fitness wearable called a Whoop!
@@Whatmojoloves Thanks
I love your content! You’re one of the reasons why I wanna become a yoga instructor/ content creator! I’m loving the long form UA-cam videos!
ahhh that makes me soooo happy to hear
Loving the long form content!!!! 💕
I’m so glad because I’m having a lot of fun making them! 🫶🏽
Not all heroes wear capes!! I am so trying this, I'm tired of avoiding strenuous workouts because of my hair. Thank you!
Excited for you and this chapter. Sending u love and light. And stamina! As a fellow full time Pilates Instructor who took the jump, you got this!💪🏾🥳👏🏾🫶🏾
I’m here for deets on the swimsuit! 🙏🏾
It’s this brand called Fruity Booty! I love it, quality is great
This works. I sometimes blow dry a little to speed up the process. Also, for home workouts, if my hair was curled I’d roll it with flexi rods with the edges tied down and my fan on. Leaving the rollers in and tie on until the hair dries left me with flawless curls.
hi! here from tiktok!!❤
Welcome! ❤❤❤
Good video, I enjoyed it, never knew the benefits of Matcha but I just looked it up. Thanks!
Yes! So many benefits. An acquired taste so may take time to find a place that makes it to your liking
Love this one! Going to San Diego in June, writing down the matcha places for sure
Have so much fun! Also, make sure you get some good authentic tacos that was another trip highlight that I forgot to film
The sound of the ocean was so relaxing. Thanks for sharing your trip.
sooo relaxing I can listen to it loop forever
THIS works!!! I’ve tried soo many variations of this but the two buns with the gymwrap works perfectly. I also found that I didn’t leave it on long enough. Most of the time, I’d leave it on for only 15 -30 minutes, when it really needed to be longer , like an hour. The only thing I do different is use skinny silk scrunchies to make my bun. I just make two ponytails, wrap my hair around, secure with pins, apply my gymwrap, and workout! Works like a charm!!!
Congrats on your YT channel 💕 this post is so timely bc I’m going through something similar. I enrolled in teacher training earlier this year and was unexpectedly laid off from my dream job shortly after. I’m thankful to have Pilates to focus on, and grateful that I’m not having to overwork myself trying to balance a ft job at the same time. Looking forward to more content!
Alsooooo.....u can leave ur hair in the buns and headband, use a drier with a defused attachment and dry ur hajr, only remove buns when fully dry. Adding this tip for my girlies who sweat a lot. I do this no issue with curl damage. No additional heat tools, just blow dry with the buns in.
I just started my wellness channel here and am living my best life too! I’m in my 40s so i can confirm this is a great outlook!
Why didn't I know you had a YT channel? Oh well, here we are. Thank you for sharing your journey. I am excited to see your pilates journey. I am wishing nothing but success and joy for you!
Thank you so much 😊
Excited to see your journey as a pilates instructor!!
🫶🏽
Thank you so much for sharing! I look forward to seeing allll of the things! 🥰
Love this! And thanks for sharing - it resonates as I was laid off too and sorting out those feelings is never easy. I’d love to see any home workouts you can share
Yes! Home workouts coming soon!
thank you Mo
GIRL THANKYOU!!!
Thank youuuu
This absolutely works. My hair isn’t as long (shoulder length) and it still works. It also works great with weave with leave out
Are you natural or have chemicals?
after you said that was your hair after 7 days and 5 workouts i subscribed 🤣
Loved that this was short and sweet. This makes lots of sense. Gonna try leaving the sweat band on and letting the hair dry and two tight buns instead of one because I’ve been having to blow out my roots a little. I sweat a lot!

Thank you !
Thank you so much!!!
Where did you get the headband?

Sis, I found this video at 4:30am before my CrossFit workout. IT WORKED! I did a quick 1,2 in the car heading to the gym. I used two Bobby pins and I’ll do tighter ones tomorrow, but it worked. I didn’t have the sweatband but I’m gonna buy that today. After the gym I set them on flexi rods for work today, but this was a perfect tutorial! Thank you for this black girl magic!🎉❤
Yay!! I am so happy it did
Thank you! I’m a sweaty mess so days. Yes, I noticed the SYD wrap does work. My problem is being consistent. I need to but at least 5 more.
Will this work for pinned curls?
For me pin curls were too close to the head. I had to use flexi rods and tie down my edges.
I got a silk press yesterday and pin curled it then put a scarf on so I could workout, today the right side and some of the back has reverted 😩
I know! I messed mines up too yesterday. I pin curled it and tied it down. That doesn’t work!
@@dbsmoney4163it works. Mo’s hair is gorgeous, it may be a diff hair texture. What works for me is a breathable hair wrap, I think it’s satin. I also have some that look like doo rags. I put my hair in a low bun key is it has to have tension like Mo mentioned or else the moisture will revert the hair. Put the wrap over the bun. I like wearing a cap over it. When I’m done working out, I put on a new dry wrap and let it dry with this on. Each day that I’m further away from press day, it doesn’t go back to silk press look, which by then it’s time to wash and condition.
You said tie ro the side of the head ??
Where did you purchase the headband ?
Thanks your hair is beautiful! Look forward to trying this!
Thank you Mojo! This was a simple easy tutorial!
Do you think this will work for 4b/4c hair types?
I have had women reply in the comments and say it did! Regardless of hair texture the key is getting your hair super tight with tension, having your scalp well ventilated and letting it dry fully before taking it off
Yes it does! Although I believe you needed more parts - 4 sections and tie the band tight because it may slip w/ a lot sweat. My hair is very dense tho fine.
Link to the head band?

Hi! Love your hair btw 💖 Do you cover your hair with anything else when you shower? & And how long does it take your hair to dry after your workout before you take it off?✨
I typically use a scarp under my shower cap when I shower pinning my hair up the same way underneath. My hair usually dries within 1 hour after I am fully cooled down after a workout
