I don't know if there has been a topic on this before but I noticed that certain moisturizers or leave-ins when applied to the hair even while wet and then allowed to completely dry will absolutely not allow the hair to be straightened afterwards. Products with glycerin such as s-curl and daily doctor (which are my two FAVORITE moisturizers for protective or curly styles), will not allow me to straighten my hair.
The other day I applied some s curl after washing and conditioning and allowed my hair to airdry. Forgetting that I had done this, I took my maxiglide and attempted to straighten a section in the back. I couldnt understand why nothing was happening. It was just turning poufy and starting to smell burnt! Alarmed I gave it some thought and realized that I had used scurl as a moisturizer.
Have you guys run into any products that won't allow you to straighten your hair afterwards? What products do you use as a moisturizer/leave-in on wet hair after washing when you plan on flat ironing or hot combing? I need something that is very moisturizing but at the same time allows me to straighten. Thanks!
