Blow Drying Natural Hair Using The "Tension Method"

[LilDymond1012]

QUESTION: Is this how you blow dry your hair all the time?!

[aaliyahbr3]

nice job! quick question. the grape seed oil...since it is an oil, won't it lock in that moisture and you'll no longer be able to "put another product on top of it?" I know coconut, avocado, and olive oil penetrate, but won't grape seed oil just act as a sealant? I'm just asking because I'm thinking about adding it to my regimen. :) Thank you so much!!

[LilDymond1012]

Where can you find Kera Care hair products?! And is this a better method then blow drying using a comb attachment, or using a brush to help blow dry?!

[lashawna07]

interesting...

[MyNaturalSistas]

I'm going to try this for my next blow out! Thanks for sharing :)

[kieramommy]

I love your hair!

[daniellebembo]

Excuse me did you use the high heat or the medium heat settings? Because my hair is about the same length as yours, probably a lil longer because mines sits right on top of my boobie lol! But when I did this mines still started to shrink up lol! I have 3c 4a hair and its basically more single waves through out my head like that wavey weave that you by from the ching ching stores lol! Its like that! I just want my hair a lil more stretched any suggestions!

[KnottyByNature1]

I used this method and loved it! You definitely don't have all of the hair breakage. I don't blow dry my hair often, but w/this method I feel like I can do it confidently w/o damaging my hair. Thanks a million chica!

[gramz33]

quick question: do u stil use the huetiful steamer?

i stopped after like 3 times, just didnt feel like it was doing anything

[cocoabeanz2]

i love the results :)

[AlexandraBond]

I know you hear this all the time... but you hair... amaze balls.... love it...

[mizcreativelyme]

[AmberAuNaturel]

[shannanwhite]

lol@connectedtomenow

[bellabombTV]

I would totally wear my hair out like that blown out lol. You have beautiful hair.

[greentrubeauty]

beautiful pics.!.. 

[Bunicornaces]

I've been doing this for years and never knew there was a special name for it lol My blow dryer never came with a comb, so I had to blow dry my hair like this

[jasnian0313]

when you do your mini-twists how do you keep your scalp from itching??

[catiaspi1]

I just tried this and it worked really well. thanks. it seems so obvious but i have never tried it. it does cut down on my time too. i have 4b hair or whatever and it came out just as straight. pretty cool

[okorolina]

i started using grapeseed oil because of one of your blog posts - it is amazing! it also is great for frying plantains, lol!

[LuvAlwaysVictoria]

ur hair is so beautiful. so so beautiful. This was a great tutorial. Really helpful <3

[askvivi1]

wow nice method, thnx for the tips and the products, i will try that with my Karmin Salon Pro Professional Hair Dryer :P

[Icylillies]

Oh this was awesome! Thanks for sharing!!

[godsflame2]

Thanks for sharing! I will try this when I do my blow out next month. And I LOVE when you do mini twists, will be looking forward to that vid!

[PRETTYDIMPLES01]

ooh I going to take this idea. i think i will blow dry my hair this way from now on. good idea. why didn't i think of this

[SMcPhee1024]

I love your hair it is gorgeous...I just took down my mini twist to henna and put them right back in love the no fuss of it.

[ade52286]

I LOVE the pics at the end! I have high density, and my hair grows pretty fast, but my thickness is at the roots, my mid-shafts and ends are *much* thinner. I wish I had the health of your hair!!!!

[Shrasi]

Love the tension method, I don't think I'll ever go back to the comb attachment. It's just so much easier and delightful!

[EVERLASTINGT]

Love your hair. Amazing

[Beautiesface25]

I just put mini twist in my hair! It must be that time of year

[KinkyKurlyQueen]

@Beautiesface25 Indeed it is!

[quita1284]

Can't wait to see your mini twists vid. It use to take me 4 hours to do my mini twists but since my hair has grown the last time I did them it took me more than 6 hours. So I haven't done them in over 4months. But I miss them so maybe I might get back into my mini twist routine...I just need a little motivation lol

[MsQuita20101]

im going to try this i usually use the comb attachment.

[KinkyKurlyQueen]

@MsQuita20101 Cool, come back and tell us if it worked for you.

[NaturalDiva10]

Your ends look so good. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong (maybe I'm not trimming enough). I had to cut an inch off last night because my ends had gotten so raggedy. What do you do to preserve your ends and retain length?

[Kinkycurlycoil]

All this time I couldnt put a name to this blowdrying method I clearly thought I was being lazy :) can't wait to c the twist!!!

[AuNaturaleFrench]

I'm glad someone like s the keracare leave in..I'm allergic to their natural products..

[naturalbeyouty]

You know I watch your videos all the time and I just have to say, your hair has really grown! Wow!

[KinkyKurlyQueen]

@naturalbeyouty Thank you :)

[dsugartwist]

Thanks for the video! I'm going to do this next time I blow dry my hair.

[nikjohn77]

@ConnectedToMeNow LOL...me too

[thecreativelady]

Love this! I want to blow dry my hair this weekend too! Temptations. . .

[Nicsnaps]

Your hair is thriving. U continue to inspire me to continue on in my journey.

[ConnectedToMeNow]

Just Stopped by to be Jealous...carry on.

[KinkyKurlyQueen]

@ConnectedToMeNow LMBO!!

[organicloc]

When you do the tension method you see less hair come out

[KinkyKurlyQueen]

@organicloc Yes. There's a lot more manipulation being done when you use a comb attachment, which can lead to more breakage. 

[nappilyevaafta]

Love your hair! I cant wait to see your mini twist..... Thanks so much for sharing your vids.

[GwendolynRaine]

Man! How long is your hair?

[ThaNuMe331]

yeah ur hair is dope.com

[yinka321]

Go on ahead sugar mama lol... your hair is BANANAS!!!!!

[superstaris1987]

[NaturallyLeeLee]

[wcallisa22]

[Qannah]

[notsoshy28]

Oh wow i am about to do mini twist myself because i am about to have surgery and i will have a 6 week recovery and i know i will know feel like doing anything to my hair so this is the best protective style ever!

[afrikahchick]

great vid!! i cant wait to be natural again. im transitioning to natural hair again. 18 months is my goal. i love your blog and vids. keep up the great work!! :-) i cant wait for my hair to get to your lenght once i go natural again. :-) are you ever going to do protective styles that include extensions again? weaves and braids are my best friends in my transition journey. lol. i have to buy some grapeseed oil asap.

[coreawilliams]

You don't do videos too often so when I see you on my subscription list - I hop on that vid ASAP! Lol Great point abt grapeseed oil. I love that stuff!

[trecey920]

lol @ hair porn it came out nice!

[beautysham]

did your hair feel dry afterwards?? i recently blow dried a section of my hair to see the length and my hair felt like it was fried!! lol litterally...i didnt even put it on high heat. and i used a heat protectant.....now im afraid to blowdry! what did you do to prep your hair and was it soft after you blow dried?

[KinkyKurlyQueen]

@beautysham That's why I love grape seed oil for blow drying, it keeps my hair so soft! All the prep info is in the description box.

[beautysham]

@KinkyKurlyQueen thanks! i will purchase that and try it

[randb247]
