Hi Ladies!
The title of the thread is a little misleading. I don't actually have a blowout. But, my hair is so light, fluffy and voluminous after my wash and press that it feels like a blowout (my hair is neck length and thinner than I would like because I am nursing it back to health after a few sewins~ it's also NATURAL type 4 hair).
I have been oiling my scalp with Qhemet Biologics Amla and Olive Oil Heavy Cream and braiding the nape of my hair at night (because it has been cut recently, and I want it to grow back better and faster). When I do this, my hair gets weighed down easily and doesn't look as nice as when I leave the salon, but it seems to get gradually healthier.
My hairstylist (who is awesome!
) commented that it is growing nicely even though I have only seen her for 4 visits, but when I asked her if i should oil the scalp, she said she wants me to just wrap my hair at night and only use a light cream on the ends a few nights a week...even though my scalp is dry like that.
My question is: Is there a way that I can still oil my scalp with the Amla and Olive Oil Cream and braid the back at night AND still have a nice wrap that looks really good the next day?!? I know I am asking a lot, but hopefully there is a hair guru on here who knows how I can do this.
