is it for the flat iron?

FL Gators:
I've always blow dried my hair. *bites side lips*

Yea, I've seen the Revlon commercial. It's really good, but I odn't trust everything I see on TV lol.

My hair CANNOT dry nautrally. If I leave it undried after conditioning, it gets puffy, very puffy like an afro. ugh

if it cant dry naturally then just do like half of it blow dry and let the little ones air dry or vice versa. or if you're going to be BD then set the heat/temp on medium and not on high heat. or not constantly doing it. i usually wrap a towel to help with the puffy puffy lol. dont rub wet hair or you get split ends. i wrap mines with a soft towel after some minutes, i unwrap it then apply a leave in conditioner, or serum.  detangle, and comb/style.

of course air drying isnt always the most convenient, but just keep the use on the low IMO 

relvon is good, just got to do the good ol' try n error.

@ Ebony

I am (currently) use the CHI Turbo Ceramic Flat Iron 2, and the CHI Thermal Protection Spray,and the CHI Silk Infusion with Cationic Hydration Interlink and sometimes CHI Shine Infusion.

i mean the heat/temperature of the flat iron, like medium, low, high etc

am liking this CHI but kinda expensive though. there are many good ones around. FHI Heat Runway is another awesome one, Hai, and Revlon has a good one too. i think it all depends on your budget. but whatever one you decide make sure it's ceramic not metal.

i dont blow dry, i let my hair air dry naturally. blow drying is kinda bad for the hair especially when you constantly do it

depending on how good you're with makeups b4 and knowing how to choose the right colors and applying it not to look overdone but classy

Shinatu:
Ladies,

Can someone please recommend a relaxer for very coarse hair. I find it difficult to get a relaxer that can effectively relax it my hair and this often leads to breakage.

I have heard of  Mizani (not too sure of the name)but cannot find it around my present location in Nigeria, but if someone can testify of it's effectiveness (for my type of hair), I can get my sister to look for it in Lagos.

try mizani in the coarse hair type, it's good. or you try affirm or designer essentials

FL Gators:
lol sissy, THEN WHAT DO YOU USE?
What's spray conditioner?
ooohhh ok.

I'm scared that it might cause my hair to have split ends. The last coiling iron I used stiffed up my hair and burned my scalp

Sissy, all this products you're mentioning, are you sure it can be bought at WalMart or Walgreens? Cuz this summer I no get car on campus and I seriously don't feel like taking a 2hrs walk (again) just to get to the nearest store/mall.

Wetin be JOJOBA

i use the 5 in 1 conditioner i listed on the first page. yea, i think you can get most of the products at those stores but the morrocan oil will probably be online or some other stores not sure whether those stores carry it.

the jojoba oil is a very nice and moisturizing oil, its chemical components is very similar to our body's sebum. so it's a very good oil for hair and skin

@Sissy
Pls, how do u use the hair straightner(1st pic) that was given 2 u as a gift? I'am planning 2 get one 4 my self.

Thanks

my steps:

what i use: comb, pins, spray, cream, mirror, and flat iron

Note: make sure you thoroughly dry your hair first: i air dry my hair instead using a blow dryer

1) i apply a styling cream to my hair

2) i coat my strands with a protective spray

3) i divide my hair into sections, like 2, 3 or 4 parts

4) i set the heat to suggested/desired level

5) i flat iron, closing the claps of the irion as much i can near the scalps and then down the hair length

6) i apply a finishing serum/spray, i just apply a little on my hand then just work it into my hair

and to maintain it, i wrap it every night with a scarp or a sock

i love that Sassy Pixie !

@ MC

yea, TRESemmé products are really nice!
