Enhancing the Effects of A Leave-In...

[MizaniMami]

I know everyone is on the simple thingy right now. But I just wanted to share something that I did this past week. This is for anyone who wants to go a tad extra to get some extra softness or who isn't really feeling their leave-in anymore but got mass left and need to use it up .

So I washed and DC'ed as usual and applied my leave-in +sealing oil. But instead of styling, I put my plastic cap BACK on, and got up under the dryer, sat for 10 minutes, and took off the cap and proceded to style. I didn't rinse after. Simply put, I kinda deep conditioned my leave-in with heat, but I didn't rinse.

The results were amaaaazing. My hair dried a lot quicker and my hair was extremely soft. I recommend this to anyone who wants to enhance their leave-in!

I used to do this all of the time (under a plastic cap for 20-30 minutes but with no heat).

This does work. I just started doing this recently, since I haven't been towel drying my hair in order to get it to dry as straight as possible, I apply my leave-ins and sit under the hood dryer for 15 min. to get the excess wetness outta my hair. It does work like a DC for your leave-ins. Great trick!

I've been putting keracare leave in and the jojoba moisturizer on soaking wet hair and it's been a dream. I just put in an ponytail and go. My husband says my hair looks nice a wavy. I love it because it feels so good in the hot weather.

You know what, girl, I don't know! I haven't used liquid leave-ins in YEARS. But I guess it won't hurt to try it.

OT: What leave-in you use?

RIght now Im using Elasta QP H-Two mixed with Herbal Essences Detangler (got on sale for 1.00 ) Im only using this testing out the less product more swang theory and you know Im heavy handed..

So I took a break from my Creamy leave ins for a minute to see how the liquids work for me

You know what, girl, I don't know! I haven't used liquid leave-ins in YEARS. But I guess it won't hurt to try it.

I use my keracare leave in to set my hair and it always comes out nice and soft.
