So I apologize in advance for constantly riddling this forum with questions on flat ironing, I'm a newb and don't want to damage my hair.
So I am not going to use a blow dryer but let my hair dry overnight instead in braids and then take them apart in pm the next day for the blown out effect. I am going to flat iron after all of that. I was told that my hair should not be wet at all when the iron touches it so I wanted to apply my liquid heat protectant and my serum before braiding. My question is, is this to long to wait after applying a heat protectant to flat iron? Will the time I take to get to flat ironing it render the heat protection useless? When is the best time to apply heat protectant if your not blowdrying? Sorry if I sound dumb but I really am clueless about these things. Thanks again!
