I have gotten such good results with my last two presses to my hair that people thought I had went to the salon (and I have never before been able to get my hair to look like the stylist does)!
The major things I've changed are:
(1) I started using a new iron, the Generic CHI (GVP) from Sally's. It has temperature control and goes up to 410 degrees. Before I was using a Gold N Hot (or was it Hot Tools?) iron and I only used it twice before deciding it was not good for my hair. I owned an FHI iron last year, and at this point I think the GVP does just as good of a job as my old FHI 302RVI model
(2) I bought some IC Fantasia Heat Protectant serum (in the pink bottle) and I apply a small amount of this to my damp hair before blow drying. Besides a TINY bit of leave-in, this is the only product I apply to my hair before blowing it out. It leaves my hair shiny, silky, straight, and really does help with reversion! I think this item will definitely be a keeper until I can get ahold of some samples of Sabino Moisture Block.
(3) I got a suprise late birthday gift in the mail from a friend of mine a few weeks ago---a Denman brush!! I use it to detangle with, and I must say that I am truly happy to replace my old paddle brush with the Denman. At first glance I thought it would be too much for my thick 4a/b natural hair, but it works extremely well. I even use it to blow my hair out with!
