    I have never seen anyone braid their hair and pin it like that to give it the blow dry look without the blow dryer. that is awesome def think i will try that method next time i straighten my hair. great video!

    Beautiful! I love straightening my natural hair videos because it show cases woman who have transitioned their natural hair and their hair is at that healthy state so that you can straighten it. you just earned a subscriber, not for making this video but for many many other videos like this one which show case protective styles that any women can wear rock and love you are amazing at what you do keep at it (Btw I love your natural hair texture)❤️

    Love the stretch overnight method. So much better than double heat by blowing out first. I'm going to do a flat iron soon it had been so long since I've done a real straighten. Next month will make two years for me who hoo! Xoxo ;-) 💜💜💜💜

    omg it's so nice to see a video for straightening actual kinky hair! I swear these 3B videos don't do one thing for me, I LOVE THIS

  • @MarySmiley501
    @MarySmiley501 9 років тому +32

    Ok I tried your method of drying overnight and I have it say it's genius! We don't even have the same texture of hair and this worked. Mine is 4C (the toughest to deal with) and my edges and all smooth and hair feels soft. Ok it didn't dry completely but I expected that as my hair is quite thick. The other positive thing was that minimum hair came out when I combed. As it didn't dry I added the Argan oil and re-twisted in smaller batches - hopefully it dries now :-D. We need more people like you in London - you should come over and dhold workshops xx

    I want to thank you for that video. I have wanted to flat iron my hair but did not want to use way too much heat with a blow dryer and flat iron. I will definitely try this process and get my ends trimmed once it is done. AWESOME!!!

    I did this method n had zero heat damage!!! I usually blow dry my hair but since I didn't I think that's why I didn't get heat damage plus my hair lasted a whole week usually it puffs up in 2 days. Girl your method changed my life haha lol (:

  • @Jazzerbean
    @Jazzerbean 9 років тому +7

    I definitely want to try the stretched method you used. The shrinkage is a little frustrating and the process on washing and twisting my hair all in the same night is not something I want to try when I am tired. Thank you for the method. It seems to work on you so I'm going to try it on my hair.

    SOMEONE HELP ME!!!
    Okayy soo whenever I straighten my hair it NEVER stays straight. Unless the air is really dry. So even when it's normal humidity, it's still never 100% straight. What should I do? What products do you use?
    (Ps. I don't use a heat protectant. Could that be a reason. Also I don't know my hair type. My hair is curly, I think 3b and c but idk. It's like ringlets)
