Straightening my natural hair...

I met a little girl who asked me, how do you straighten your hair or do you always wear it curly like that (her face was all balled up and confused...lol...too cute)? I answered with a flat iron...I chose to save her the hassle of advising her of the real process.

The first time I straightened my tresses, it was cute and shortly after it was a curly fro. I learned my lesson and took heed to the advise I had received from a friend and use the products she advised me to use and well...You saw the pictures above.

After pre-pooing, shampooing, conditioning and detangling, I applied Mizani Thermasmooth Smooth Guard and blew my hair out using my awesome Yellow Bird. After blow drying, I applied EVOO to my dry hair and began to flat iron, but before I allowed the heat to touch my hair again I sprayed a pretty decent amount of TRESemme Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Spray, it worked no fro...although my left side didn't act right so I wrapped my hair around my head tied my scarf on it and went to bed.

The next morning....

Well my left side was still acting qwerky, so I grabbed the flat iron and went through my hair with larger chunks and flat ironed it again, needless to say, no frizz...I made it through the whole day with no puff. Not to mention, my hair is so soft and fluffy like...lol...I'm so in love with my natural hair, it works for me :-)

Until next time...Miss Naturally Curly :-)
