I am really liking this ponytail method

[keke]

I just wanna say to those who have suggested tryin the ponytail method for drying your air i just wanna say WOW. It is great. I did it yday for the first time and it went well. i can now FINALLY put my fingers through my roots w/o gettin tangle and i can comb/brush better too. :^D oo yes. and my front is nice and smooth.

me so happy.

I didnt do it b4 cause i thought it didnt make sense to put hair in a ponytail as if that was gonna make it str8 and even if i was going to try it i was thinkin i was gonna lose alot of hair from it cause of me having to brush hard to get my hair to lay back, but i didnt lose alot of hair. :^D I saw VERY lil to none. :^D So that is VERY GOOD. Thank you all. just wanted say.

<font color="purple">I'm glad it worked out for you. I always use the ponytail method after washing my hair, sometimes I braid my hair as well. My hair never got tangled after taking it down. It's great! Congrats are in order. </font>

KEWWWW(COOL)...I am gonna have to give this a try soon..as well as braid drying!

i personally prefer the pony method because it makes my roots smoother and i can run my fingers and comb/brush through it better. I have short hair so i put my hair in2 TWO ponytails and it was cute. I had a lil bang on the side too. LOL. Cute. hahha. imma do this again tomorrow. im gettin in2 the washing every 2 days things now. cept on the weekends maybe. im liking it so far. I did it yday by doing only a conditioner wash using Motions after-shampoo conditioner.

Girl, I had never tried this method before either until Monday when I washed my hair. I was like dang!!! My hair was all smooth

I tried the litte "braid out" as they call it here...let me tell you, I look a mess this morning. My husband is like, "what's wrong with your hair?" So I'm going to condition wash it and go ahead and slick it on back. I think on Friday's I am going to roller set it though since I have plans for the weekend and want to look sexy for a minute.

I am glad that all of you have so much success with the pony tail method. I am one of the people that have not been so successful using this drying method. My hair never dries smooth enough.

I don't know if this will help you or not, but since my hair was still a little damp when I went to bed, I just tied a satin scarf around it so that the front was nice and smooth. Try this and see how it works

 

[candycane]

I've done that and the edges were straight, however my hair was not straight enough to wear down. Do you dry in the pony tail and still wear your hair down after it has dried?

Well i was thinkin my hair had to be bout shoulder or close to shoulder lenght to do it but since i put it into two ponytails and put it up higher on my head its better. I like the smoothness i get from it and when i brush it up some and run ma hands through it.....

me so happy. lol. I am just soo happy i have found another way to smooth my hair back w/o puttin any heat on it to str8'n it out. Plus i have found out that the last time i tried to press my hair at the roots some hair came out and was burnt, so i learned from that. Either the comb was too hot(which i doubt) or my hair was telling me to stop using that heat and that i will be able to do fine w/out it. LOL.

btw, i was wondering if it is normal for the hair to be growin unevenly, meaning. On my left side its growing the most and 1 part of it is past my ear a lil under my jaw but yet there is another top layer that is on the ear. I mean is this normal? It seems to be this way only for my left. Is this good? And no im not gonna trim it yet. nope. LOL.

I did one today. Its straight, but I combed out more hair than I would have liked. Plus, when it was still wet I ran my hand through the ponytail and pulled out some long strands of hair. Is this normal?

It seems like I had to do alot of manipulation to get it straight. Maybe it would be a little different if I did it in the evening while I slept...okay, I am rambling now.

Hi Keke

My hair is the exact opposite of yours: the right side seems to grow faster than the left. According to my hairstylist, it is normal for people to have faster growth on one side of their heads than the other (assuming healthy scalp).

HTH
