As the title says, straightening your hair can be your passion, but it can also be a necessity, because you have very unruly hair..
Hello, my friend.
So today, I will talk to you about the right way, the necessary products and tools to turn your need into a passion.. 😉
1) The first and main thing you should take into account is the quality of your hair, i.e. (thick, thin) hair and how damaged it is, your hairdresser will help you with this.
2) The right choice of products, if you have frizzy hair and your straightening doesn’t hold, you should use shampoo and conditioner/mask that are ideal for frizzy hair. One category of such products is keratin products, which help to maintain the right moisture in the hair.
If your hair is now split ends and you just want to achieve the perfect straightening you don’t need much, except a heat protection product and you’ll be super happy.
Let’s go touch perfection..
So after we have done our shampooing routine, we dab the hair with a dry towel and then always put on a heat protection product, (ideally I use creamy stuff because it helps not only in straightening but also in detangling the hair.
A very basic thing is that the drying should not be done with the head down (upside down) because that doesn’t help us to have complete control afterwards.
After making sure that the hair is completely dry with a wide round brush, take thick sections and pull the hair down once or twice per strand. This will ensure that your hair is dry and there is no moisture on the surface of the hair.
Pressa or Masia
Don’t be afraid you will love it!!!!
The temperature our press should be at is 185°c and no more, yes yes you see, because it’s proven that this temperature maintains the moisture you need to have hair perfectly straightened and shiny as ever.
So after you part your hair you take 2-3 cm thick sections and with one hand you will comb your hair and with the other you will follow with the press. You will not need more than 2-3 passes per strand..
When you’re done with the whole head, take a very small amount of your favourite hair oil, warm it in your palms and gently stroke your hair.
Finally, throw some cold air through your hair vertically, from top to bottom and I’m sure you’ll be impressed and passionate.
Good luck 😉
