      Okay. The style is actually a Bantu Loop Twist which I just took one side and pinned up. I will still do a video for you, but meanwhile, here is how to do a Bantu Loop Twist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGRwR4PfM7M

      Since you are just transitioning, and still have relaxed ends, it will be quite difficult to get a fluffy look. However, you can try doing a twist and curl. Check out this video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujRkgLJYiwA&list=PL1B2FF061F0877CCA&index=94

      For products, it is all about trial and error. Here is my transitioning hair regimen with products http://discoveringnatural.blogspot.com/p/wash-routine-every-two-weeks-section.html

When too much heat and smoke comes out when you are using straightening brush, what does that mean?

  When too much heat and smoke comes out while using a straightening brush, it’s a warning sign 🚨 — and your hair may be getting damaged. Here’s what it usually means: 🔥 What Excessive Smoke Means 1. Your Hair Is NOT Fully Dry This is the #1 cause. Water trapped in the hair is turning into steam Steam lifts and cracks the cuticle This causes internal damage (called bubble hair) 👉 Hair must be 100% dry before using any heat tool. 2.

Heat Setting Is Too High High heat: Burns the cuticle Causes split ends Weakens strands permanently If you see smoke, the heat is likely too hot for your hair type. 4. You Didn’t Use a Heat Protectant Heat protectants reduce moisture loss and thermal dam...

Detangling a Tenderheaded Kid's Hair

My younger daughter is extremely tenderheaded.  Just the slightest touch of her hair causes her to cry.  Unlike my older daughter whom I can cornrow, thread, or do any styles on, I have only been able to do twists without her crying. Today is her wash day, and as you can see, she has lots of hair that needs to be detangled! I literary have nightmares when I think about detangling her hair and dealing with the tears that accompany the process.  Here is how I accomplished a tear-free detangling session! Pick your detangling location I choose our game room. This room is her favorite room in the house. Provide distraction Turned on the TV to her favorite show. I also provided her with a small snack. Her Barbie dolls were readily available. Get all your detangling products available While she was watching her show, I mixed the products for detangling. I do the detangling during pre-poo step of the whole wash process. I mixed conditioner and Extra Virgin Ol...
