I've done the steam treatment while in braids and my NG felt awesome.
I've taken the braids down and have a question now -
I'm doing the towel method - don't have a steamer YET- but I want to know, when the first towel comes out of the microwave, it is too hot to go directly on the hair? I loved the heat/steam while in braids but I'm just concerened about that heat on my own hair? TIA
MTG, mayo and eggs. How is that for one? Would you try it?
Try covering your hair with a plastic cap first. Then put your towel in the microwave and wrap the towel around your head. Cover that towel with another plastic cap.
How long should the towel be left in the microwave?
Put the cap on first. Heat the towel in the microwave for at least 3 minutes. USE PLASTIC GLOVES SO THAT YOU DON'T BURN YOUR HANDS!! Wrap towel around the plastic cap. Then, cover the towel with another plastic cap to lock in steam.
I've been steaming here in Nigeria for the past few weeks. I love how shiny and soft my hair is.
I mix Motions Protein Reconstructor with Motions Moisture Plus and steam for 30mins. Rinse out with cool water. Awesome! Shiny & strong.
What do you do after your rinse?? Do you apply oils/blow-dry/air-dry/etc?
I love steaming. I steamed tonite after I took out my braids.
OT-Samantha, how are you doing with the Nigerian hair braiding method (3-strand)? I suck...![]()
Before I started Kanye's New workout plan I had to....Oops sorry wrong testimonial
My style lasts much longer, I get a lot less shrinkage and it's a lot more moisturize. I can really see a difference. My hair feels softer and more manageable. I use my fabric/clothes steamer.![]()
I steam my hair every month when i go to the hairdresser. For the past few months started covering my hair with a net and not a plastic cap. Makes a big difference to me in how my hair feels afterwards.
What does this challenge consist of? Also why can't a person steam her hair more than once per month?
since steaming i had to switch from a creamy moisture to a spray, because my hair really didnt need a moisturizer?
then i clip up and air dry, or while its clipped up if its time for bed ill blow dry on low detting so im not going to bed with a soaked head. the rest will airdry overnight. this week i didnt flar iron because im loving the texture and i have been working out so im doing updo's
i also agree i havent used a comb to detangle at all the tangles just melt away during rinsing, when i do a moisturizing steam tx or a protein( i do the protien on dry hair spritz with water and protein condish on it.) then i co wash.
I do the moisture steam tx after i poo.
I even do the saran wrap tx if i need it mid week(sometimes i do not use the rollers).
I just took out my braids last night. I am going to henna in a min then do a steam treatment. My 35 week post relaxer hair is killing me and I am hoping the steam treatment will help. Wish me luck!
I am either going to use the S factor from TIGI (really thick and I love it) or my WEN fig. I sitting here with Henna on my head trying to figure it out.
