I comb my hair... gather it in the bun... i then take a fine tooth comb and comb the top layer of my hair only so that it's sleek...then i apply a nickel size amount of the salerm to my hair. After smoothing it in you can either brush it or use the fine tooth again so it'll lay flat (remember, you are just fine combing the top layer of ur hair only). Then put the ponytail holder on it and secure my bun. If i have time, i put my silk scarf on my head (at least 15 mins)... and the remove it as i walk out the door. This baby is SLEEK! ALL DAY even when i remove the ponytail holder, the hair still looks like it's in a ponytail. I LOVE IT!
oh and elasta qp oil recovery works just as well but i happen to like it as i leave in so i don't waste it.
Yeah, and i use it on my daughter's hair... her hair likes the salerm better than mine does. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
