Less than 4 hours ago I took down my 2 month old box braids and it has grown quite a bit. I knew I would not be able to enjoy my bit of growth with my raggedy ends so I scheduled an appointment at Ulta. My main object at first was to get the end trimmed rather than the style. Well, it was great minus the use of small combs and the fact that my hair is texlaxed with about 3 inches of new growth.
My hair came out so light and airy. It feels like nothing is on my head and it just blows with the wind. My hair has that sheen(not shine) to it that resembles that of virgin indian remy extensions. I was so surprised by the positive results since the stylist used a flat iron spray. I thought that I would have the typical results that I've gotten from Chi Straight guard. This time was different. Yeah, some strands do feel like they are a bit fused together, but my hair is soft and I can run my fingers through it.
So what is my problem with this? I fear that my hair is going to puff up in all of this humidity( I live in Alabama). My hair feels so odd being this light weighted. I really want to be able to create this same effect in the future. I just need it to last for more than a day. What do you guys do to maintain your hair when it is like this?
By the way the stylist used all Redken products. Im not sure of the shampoo and conditioner. All I saw was her use about 5 to 7 pumps of the Satin 02 ultimate blow dry lotion and 2 to 3 pumps of the smooth down heat glide protective smoother to blow dry my hair. She used a large Chi flat paddle brush. Then sprayed the iron silk 07 ultra straightening spray on each section when flat ironing. She also flat ironed my hair ever so slightly damp.
