I washed my hair last night for the first time in two weeks. It was beyond dirty! But I have to admit that it was a pleasant experience. I was also pretty stoked that my ODing on heat protection wasn’t in vain because my hair reverted right back.
Here’s the technique I used to flat iron my hair:
– Wash
– Clear rinse
– Deep Condition w/moisture and protein
– Leave in/detangle: It’s a 10 is a heat protectant, too
– Air Dry
– Heat protectant spray
– Blow dry
– Heat protectant serum applied to each section
– Flat iron on 410 degrees
– Apply serum for smoothness
– Wrap + Satin Scarf
It seems like I added a lot of product to my hair, but my hair was not weighed down at all, so in the future I will continue to put all that crap on my hair to protect it. I noticed right after I flat ironed my hair that my ends looked thin. So I was sad. I still am, actually. I’m sure the thinness is a result of the detangling battles I’ve had in the past, but it’s only a minor setback (still repeating this to myself) and a reminder not to slack off. I think imma chill on the heat after my cousin’s wedding though.
