that pic! I can't help but laugh while thinking "poor dog" at the same time. :lachen:
 
a comment on the vid:
You need your own website to put this on bambiieyz, you still working on it ?
Your videos are too innovative to not be on a website of their own.

LMAO!!!!!
 
LMAO!! In the first 20 seconds I knew this wasn't gone work for me or half the people on LHCF. She says her hair is "naturally curly" in the description box, but it looked more straight than curly when it was wet. Even wet, my hair is STILL a bush of tight curls. :nono: No, ma'am.
 
Hell my bad :ohwell: I thought maybe someone would be able to use it. :nono:

Aw thanks for sharing! :)
You know, it actually is a very creative technique. Just won't really work for me or anyone else who has tightly curled hair - at least not to give us "shiny silky hair". At best it would probably be a speedier alternative to regular air drying. :ohwell:
 
I thinks folks are blowing this out of proportion. Everyone knows good and darned well she didn't make that for video for anyone with hair that was tighter curled or coiled than hers. I'll give my left toe and say she didn't make it for US, unless they have a similar hair type and I actually do have a couple of black gf's with hair like bambi's and they could probably get away with this.

This is a vid with her hair curly which looks like it has a finer texture that's easily manipulated so of course she could get away with using a fan and a brush.

After reading the comments here, I was prepared to dismiss the technique as well, but while I was watching I did start to wonder... it actually does not seem *that* different from blowing drying on the cool setting. I've only done that once (inspired by LHCF); the air from my blow dryer was not warm at all, similar in temperature to the breeze from a fan, and it did get about as straight as it does with blow drying on warm/hot. The main issue is that it took three times as long to do (three+ hours versus about one hour with a warm/hot blow dryer).

I agree that all the hair flipping would just add frizz and poof to curly/coily hair, but she's using the hairbrush similar to how you would use a brush to blow dry anyway.

I might experiment with this idea... when it isn't quite so cold and rainy, :lol:.
 
:look: Came across this on youtube, The lady in the video has an extremely wavy hair type, but she says it works for all textures of hair. I just twisted my hair so I'm not going to try this for a few weeks, but if anyone wants to try it here is the link to the video.:drunk:

To whom ever tries it tell us what happened and post pics!!:grin:

Now washize, you know that technique ain't for "us". I don't know why you brought that over here. :spank:
 
I'm telling you...some people are a trip.
If I had a dollar for everytime I heard a white woman complaining about how curly her hair was or talking some..."yeah, I have mixed race hair", when her hair barely has a bump to it, I could pay my tuition without financial aid.


I don't understand why people lie to themselves about their texture. If your hair is wavy, then say it's wavy. If it's straight, then say it's straight. If it's kinky, coily, nappy, whatever, then claim it.
You ain't gotsta lie, Craig. You ain't gotsta lie. :nono:
 
My hair is giggling at that!!! Just...no! I knew within the first 2 seconds that this would not work. I was like, "Did the OP realize that her hair started out straight and that SHE IS WHITE?"
 
i would be bald half way through this vid....BUT this might work with rollers with a downside of possibly catching a cold...at least where i live :)
 
I've dried my hair with a fan and a wide-toothed comb applying light tension. Wasn't trying to get it silky-straight, just dry without heat. And it did dry much straighter than just air-drying. I did it before I flat-ironed to avoid using heat twice. It would have taken all day had I used a blow-dryer.

I'm sure it would work (straightening, that is) for ladies with bone-straight relaxed hair. Probably wouldn't be silky, but if you're trying to avoid heat it might be worth a try.
 
Puleez . . . we know that when they say all hair textures, they are not talking bout us :rolleyes:

I clicked on the link and was like WTHop? She already has straight hair. :lachen::lachen: The only thing this would do for me is make me catch a cold. :lachen::lachen: But now that I have had a good laugh, I can go to sleep.

I was JUST about to say the same thing! What's the difference between before and after? Hell, if I did that - I don't care how sturdy my paddle brush was or how "controlled" I made my gazillion passes with my paddle brush - by the time I got finished my hair would look like Bone, Thugz AND Harmony! Straight up "wind tunnel" effect!

:grin:

Pullleeeaaasseeee!
 
This does not even work for WW. If it did, how come they buy so many flat irons and hot combs? :giggle:

Exactly :yep:

I can only see this working on people that have a soft/fine texture and loose curls/waves.



If I "straighten" my hair without heat, it flattens out a lot, but still retains a lot of texture. I would absolutely need heat to get that silky straight look.

I've tried wet sets and blowing out my hair on cool with my denman. I plan to do them more often when my hair gets longer :)
