    I’m 67 and I have a big Afro and watching your video has given me a lot of help on how to maintain it properly. Thank you so much 😊

    I’m 56, worn my hair ‘natural’ for 30 years, after teenage obsession with perm! Realised the ‘true type’ of my hair around age 20 - can you believe that! There were no advisors around then, just hot irons, curly perms and anything to hide or change our God given ‘fro. This video is great; I have subscribed.❤

    I grew up in the 1960s and 70s. I adore the Angela Davis Afro Look. I don't see too many sisters wearing them these days. I love it

    Another tip is to use thread to stretch the hair, therefore you don't need alot of hair bands plus it's easier and REALLY stretches the hair no heat...

    Goregous, I will definitely try this method but it's 2 o'clock in the morning and I work at 8:45 and have head of thick ass multi-textured/pattern hair that takes all day to dry. I should probably do a test run on this style before I walk out looking sideshow bob LOL

    • @ericaleshai
      @ericaleshai  8 років тому +1

      Mrs.Eazy-E yes Lol yes I recommend testing it out. It took me a while to get it right. My hair takes forever to dry too 😩

  • @chrisbrownlover911
    @chrisbrownlover911 8 років тому +2

    You should try African threading. My hair was bone straight with no heat whatsoever. I spritzed it to add kink to it and get a huge fro. It take a while to dry but I do mine on damp hair and it usually dries overnight. But if you do it on soaking hair it will take at least 2 days to dry.💁🏾

  • @alwayssavedbyHislove
    @alwayssavedbyHislove 8 років тому

    I've had crochet braids for the last couple of months (it's my annual "braid it up before I cut it off" crisis), but I'm definitely gonna try this when I take them down! I usually don't like how my hair looks and feels after blow drying it, but I will happily try your heatless method! Also, you are absolutely stunning!

    • @ericaleshai
      @ericaleshai  8 років тому +2

    I just ordered the Jovi Shai. I have been rocking my fro now for going on the second week. The last time..2 years ago...I made the mistake of using a blow dryer. this time...I'm trying to use the right products. I am using Mizani co-wash and conditioners. I also use African Pride leave in conditioner. I like your fro because your texture reminds me of my own...so I decided to try the Jovi Shai. Looking forward to giving it a go. Any other suggestions?

    Greetings, SUPER CUTE AFRO!!! Reminds me of my big afro from the '70s. Do you retwist nightly? How often do you moisturize and with what? How are your ends after being exposed? Do you find that people want to come up and touch your hair - without asking? 😃

    • @ericaleshai
      @ericaleshai  8 років тому +1

      DIANE JOHNSON thank you! 😊 And I do retwist nightly. I moisturize every other day with Jovi Shai Beauty's Shea Coconut Body Conditioner. My ends do get a little scraggly. I clip them every two to three months or so. And I guess it's my demeanor lol, but no one touches my hair without my permission.
