I finally made a low puff with natural hair...

[cocomama]

I love it!

1) I condition washed and detangled in the shower

Side note: I put some suave tropical conditioner on my dry ends for about 10 minutes. Next I detangled the ends with a comb. Then I pressure washed & detangled with my Denman brush in the shower.

2) I pulled my hair back into one ponytail and banded the ends with satin crunchies.

3) Let air dry then style with my hand.

** I discovered that the key to a smooth ponytail is to thoroughly detangle from the ends to the roots. It's almost like getting a wrap.

** I only used carol's daughter healthy hair butter to brush down my ponytail.

** Our hair is so versatile

Congrats on your puff!

Congrats! And I agree with the "key". I do my low puffs on wet/damp hair (after wrapping in a micro fiber towel to absorb water) right after detangling in the shower. It's the easiest and quickest style for me to do.

Thanks Ladies!

so1913 where did you get the micro fiber towel from? Do you wrap it around your entire head or just put hold it on your ends?

I bought one of mine from a random beauty supply store/salon in MD and the other from Harmon's Discount Beauty and Health Care stores (chain store in the NY/NJ/CT areas). I've seen them "around" just can't specifically say where. The brand name is Aquis. I wrap my entire head with it and let it stay on while I go about my morning rituals to get ready for work.
