My air dried hair!

[angelsface200]

Man, I can NEVER airdry my hair. It's relaxed and healthy, but whenever I airdry it, it becomes a big frizzy mess. And for some reason I still have my curls...

I tried the scarf method, but it takes like 5 hours + just for it to dry out.

You're lucky you have that type of hair.

@angelsface200 You know , i have the same problem . its a mess, i cant even comb it. its like all curly and frizzy even if i relax.

[isaiahsaurus]

i have a stupid question sorry, new to all this hair journey growth and strecthing regimen , i had a sew in for a year and to my suprise i gained a good healthy  six inches, my question is i want to start strectchn w/o weaves, after washing, can i part my hair into 3 sections and french twist it until it drys, or will it be a big tangled mess when i un twist them? thanks

I have never ever used a blow drier on my hair. I had one but never used it. About a month ago, i wanted to use it but it was so old, it exploded!! It was a miracle because it would have damaged my hair. lol

[bpt80ct]

so how do you get it so straight?

[ladydipset88]

@bpt80ct...Oh, my hair is not natural, its relaxed. So of course it is going to be be straight. when air dried. If you mean how did i get to not look frizzy, then what i did was i applied S-curl moisturizer and Infusium 23 leave in strengthener throughout my hair. Ran a wide tooth comb through it for even distribution. Then rolled it up and pinned it to dry. Hope this helped!

i just washed my hair htis afternoon....and i luv air drying.....mmy first time doin it ....i didnt put any leave ins and my hair was sooooooooooo dry.....but those days i didnt kno wat DC''s were.....now that i do ..even if i airdry without leave ins ....my hair is still not icredibly dry....its dry...but not unmanagable lyk de first tym...

[ladydipset88]

Yea leave-in's are important when you air dry. I use Infusium 23 repairologie leave in strengthener and also Herbal Essence Long Term Relationship Leave-in to condition my hair and also give it moisture while it dries.

[preciousdoll424]

what do you do after you air dry? do you iron or blow dry? and what do you do after you get a perm? i know dominicans like to blow dry...do you do that or roller set?

[ladydipset88]

After i air dry, i part my hair in 6 sections and moisturize and seal each section with Wave Nouveau and Jamaican black castor oil. I also lightly oil my scalp with Jamaican black castor oil to promote growth. Then i put my hair up into a bun and leave it that way until i wash again the following week. After i get a perm, i usually roller set and the Dominicans blow it out.

[gmadge]

Do you get a roller set and blowout same day as your perm or you wait a few days/weeks?

[MsSexymama30]

I love your hair journey! I'm on my 5th month of stretching. Thanks.

[ladydipset88]

Thanks! Congrats for stretching so long like me!

[soprettysofly]

what kind of vitamins are you taking?

[ladydipset88]

@soprettysofly...right now im taking some Hair, skin, nails vitamin i bought at Target. I take 3 a day. I think im seeing progress but im not sure if its from the vitamins or the Castor oil, or maybe even the summer heat. The humidity really helps in hair growth.

I went back and viewed some of your previous videos your hair has grow tremendously. I never thought about hanging Q-tip on the wall. Great Idea!!

[ladydipset88]

Hmm...i never tried bantu knots before..i'll see what i can do!

[tab2n0]

girl, i tried to air dry friday after my wash OMG it was a big frizzy mess!! i used kera care, motions, and aphogee leave in during the process and it still dried poofy...anyway your hair looks great!!!

[ladydipset88]

You should put s-curl in your hair after all your leave-in..it prevents frizzing..at least for me =]]

[effinco0l]

Hi gurlie...I just wanna inform you that you're the reason why I wanted to work on growin longer healthier hair....true inspiration.....I never thought about stretchin perms....thanks ALOT! My last perm was July 3rd....next perm would be Nov or Dec.

[ladydipset88]

Aww! Thanks so much!

[TheMakeupvirgin]

You have very nice hair.

[ladydipset88]

Thank you! That means a lot coming from you...i cant wait to reach your length one day! =]

[shesgotprettyeyes]

You practically have no frizzies. Those can be annoying little culprits. Looking pretty.

[ladydipset88]

Thanks! I have no frizzies thanks to the S-curl i applied after i put my Infusium 23 leave in spray. I dont apply the Wave Nouveau lotion to my hair to air dry anymore because it makes all of my hair bunch up and stick together like dread locs. The s-curl does not do that, which is what i will continue to use when im airdrying. Wave Nouveau is good for my hair when its 100% dry.

[ChocoliciousChik]

yeahhhh... i'm the first one to watch this video!! lol hey i was wondering, what do you think contributed to all that new growth?

[ladydipset88]

Yayy! First comment! lol..Well, regardless, im always gonna have new growth, but i dont normally have all this growth in 7 weeks. This is ALOT of growth for 7 weeks post relaxer. I guess i can contribute it to oiling my scalp with my jamaican black castor. I oil my scalp with this oil only on my wash days after my hair is done air drying 100%. I never used to take vitamins because i hate them, but now i am taking them because i want to have a certain amount of length before the year ends =]
