So how long have you been growing out your hair? Are you one of the wet bun success stories? Seriously, your hair is gorgeous.
I knew you could do it!!! Gorgeous!!!! Love that swang!
BTW are you claiming WSL yet? Because if you're not, you need to!
OP, you're way less scared of heat than me. When I was flat-ironing my hair, I took three steps I've never taken before in the name of protecting my hair. Not only did I start the thermal protection at conditioning level, but I used two heat protectants during the flat-ironing process. I've heard of folks doing what you did. But that to me is BRAVE!
Your hair looks pretty and shiny and long.
Ditto on this.
I've always heard the best flat iron/presses are on naked or nearly naked hair, but I just can't test that theory out.
I guess if you know your hair can handle it...![]()
I just had to come back in here to take another look at your swangin shiny hair...if you don't mind me asking-what temp did you use on your Maxi?
Did you apply coconut oil and about how much to each section right before Maxigliding as well as while you were airdrying?? Thanks, you got me wanting to' imitate' so badly!! lol![]()
It's so pretty! It's grown so much.
Thanks. I used Maxi on 7. I didn't put coconut oil on each section right before. but right after i added a little bit all over, kinda focusing on the ends.
what temp is a 7 on your maxi? also, i think i'm confused now. you the the oil on you hair after you flat iron or before. cause i thought you were saying you put the oil on your hair and then flat iron.... but this statement makes me think you flat iron with naked hair and then add oil. could you clarify this sesame street style as i'm obviously slow tonite lol
I dunno what number temperature that equals out to.
I just know after the 5, i go 2 dots up.
While my hair is damp I apply a bunch of coconut oil, and part it in 6 sections, working the oil through, then I turn those 6 sections into 3 twists and let them air dry. When they're almost dry i untwist till they're done.
Then I maxiglide it all.
After maxigliding, I'll apply some coconut oil to my hands and rub em together and rub the oil down the length of the hair, in 1, maybe 2 sections, but i focus on the ends.
I hope that was clearer. THe majority of the oil goes on before I flatiron. Then after I just put a lil bit more on for shiny-ocity.
