    Thank you for normalizing our hair. The media has made it seem unnecessarily complicated. When you started talking about the obsession with porosity I couldn’t agree more. I never cared about that and couldn’t understand why it mattered so much. I’m happy I’m not the only one who realizes its not that important when it comes to normal or everyday hair care. I love your energy. You are awesome! Stay blessed ❤💕

    A lot of hairstylists will use the comb attachment to blow dry the hair instead of trying their hand at using a paddle brush with a blow-dryer. They tend to think it's convenient and quicker when they could actually be tiring themselves out and possibly damaging the hair they're working on. I appreciate you demonstrating your best technique. Because of you I feel like I can do it myself instead of paying someone to put my hair through unnecessary stress.

      From the late 60s through the 70s, it was all about social change and challenging the status quo. The people who were in high school and college during the 60s and 70s went on to adopt the yuppie lifestyle of the 80s and 90s. Of course, that meant that Black folks would either straighten their hair or make their curl pattern looser in order to get a decent job, and unfortunately we’re still fighting for the right to wear our natural hair in the workplace.

    As a Dominican who does her own hair🥵
    1 tip I learned is THE VERY FIRST STEP WHILE HAIR IS STILL WET, always dry only the roots FIRST, around the perimeter of the head.
    So start from the side roots going all the way around.
    And ALWAYS STRETCH THE HAIR WHEN THAT BLOWER IS ON.
    So when you start to actually blow dry from the back, all your roots are already straightened smoothly.
    Doing your parts first will allow the hair to dry in its coil form, which you don’t want.
    🖤 Much Love 🖤

    That’s exactly why hair porosity is important especially for naturals because we need to know how our hair is going to receive certain products. I have wasted hundreds maybe even thousands of dollars trying to find hair products that’s worked for my hair. Once I understood my hair porosity I was able to figure out what products my hair would receive or soak up and what products would just sit on my scalp or roll off. I figured out how to open my hair follicles and what would seal the moisture in. It may not be that important to some people but it definitely saved me a lot of money and time.

    Porosity helps understand how your hair absorbs water. You can spritz water but with low porosity you need heat to open up the cuticles to take it in otherwise it just sits on top of your hair....still remaining dry. It changed the quality of my deep conditioning & oil treatments knowing I need to be under a dryer for longer for all that goodness to get in

    • @AfrikanHairGod
      @AfrikanHairGod  Рік тому +2

Currently in a protective style (mini braids) but once I take them down I intend on doing another blowout (did one before protective styling).

  • @WilliamsPinch
    @WilliamsPinch 2 роки тому +6

    🥴 Porosity is VERY important. If your hair is porous you need to make sure you’re using low pH products and cationic conditioners to fill and flatten the cuticle after using water of any kind. Which is why things like Porosity corrector and neutralizer can give high porosity hair a lot of added shine and silk.

    Thank you for this video! I just tried my first blow out on my 4c hair with a paddle brush and I must say I "HAD" decent results except for my ends. They were very ragged and still had tight coils at the ends. Is that because I need a trim or because I have never used heat on my hair since I grew it out 5 years ago? I tried lighter products ( a leave in/heat protectant and serum) but the ends began to revert as soon as I was done. So much work but it's longer and since I deal with constant tangling, I'm thinking a blow dry would be quick so I can braid it up and not wait 2 days to dry in large plaits for a heat free stretch. I need professional help!

    I use the tension method however, when I'm pulling the hair down I dry out to the roots first. So, I'll pull the hair and hit the top of the hair, both, sides and under. Then when I'm done with that I blowdry with the brush from tips to roots. It has worked for me better. I also find that a 9-row brush helps with the tension. Do you have any recommendations on a good paddle brush? the one that I have has bristles that go in every direction and I hate it! Also, If you have recommendations on round brushes I'll take that too! Thanks for the informative video friend!

    It’s soooo funny I watched this video as I blow dry my hair with a comb attachment 😂. My hair is never smooth like this and I tried the way you do it years ago and got overwhelmed with it all. You make me want to try it again and just be patient with myself. Plus find a really GOOD paddle brush. Do you have some you can recommend?

    😭😭😭 your method of using the 🪮 attachment… I wish you blew it out in the downwards motion like you did with the brush. I can see why the hair would get tangled faster… However, I do prefer a brush to blow my hair out muchhhh more than the 🪮 attachment because it’s so much smoother for me and I get the roots so much better. I love your method with that brush!!! New subbie here ♥️♥️♥️🥰

Wat Ive realized is I have to have patience with my black hair... like how you detangle and twist the hair before blow-drying I will implement that on my next wash day . I should have been a hairdresser. Thanks for this video .

    Learned a few new things here. For those of us unable to use the brush (or who just find it difficult) and do use a comb attachment, would it not make sense to do smaller sections than you're able to do them with the paddle brush? From your wording it seemed you were concerned about how thoroughly you could spread the hair and get to all of it, which that would help with no? Also is there a safe method for detangling the hair beforehand so you don't hit snags with the brush or comb attachment, or is that solved by starting at the ends and slowly loosening by going up to the root? My hair tends to dry fast so I'm going to practice rehydrating it slowly rather than soaking it again 😭 sorry for asking so many questions 🙏🏻 if it makes any difference to advice, I use a Dyson with the pick attachment. I feel like it is better (than even the Dyson with smoothing + brush) but my hair is longer + thick and I kind of lose energy by the time I get to the top. I can tell it's noticeably less smooth

    Thank you for responding. Yes you are right. But it also means stiffness, soreness, flaw, eccentricity. To me, this word goes way back. AfricanHair, Afro or natural is better. I guess it's up to individual.

    • @AfrikanHairGod
      @AfrikanHairGod  Рік тому

      You are choosing to use a negative connotation to a word that's not even referencing it. I am basing my terminology based on technical and scientifically accepted jargon so that means my reference and your interpretation may not align because you are not within my field of study. African hair, afro hair, and natural hair are not better terms for me to use because they are extremely general and broad. When i need to specify a specific characteristic of natural hair, I'm going to use terminology that reflects that so that i can speak with clarity and specific intent.

    There is a comb attachment that is made by a black man , and I used 30+ years. It worked much quicker than the attachments that come with the dryer plus the hair is smooth when finished, and you don't need to use no more than one glide through with the flatiron. No heat damage, at all.

    I have extreme 4C hair and by extreme I mean my hair tangles so easily and my hair has a cottony texture. I just tried your technique and although it came out better than what I usually do. My hair is still stiff and dull. I am literally giving up and I don’t know what I am doing wrong?!
    I washed with Olapex 04 and 05! Then followed with a diluted ACV rinse and then rinsed. I didn’t let my hair get too dry, and then I created sections. I applied my favorite leave-in milk and did the whole blow drying method. It still comes out stiff and my ends look horrible. I can feel myself giving up on 4c hair because I am trying so hard lol!

      What exactly is it that you are trying so hard to do? There are many things in your process that I don't really understand that could also be contributing to your blow out. I think something that meant people forget is that the health and condition of your hair is going to really be a determinant factor in the results of your blowout

No one really knew how to properly do my hair growing up, so I am starting on a fresh “hair knowledge” slate. I go to my stylist and she always does a great job, but when I replicate her technique at home, I don’t get the same results.
