Dominican Blowout technique

http://www.dominicanblowout.com/
A brush, a couple of butterfly clips and a kicka$$ blower and there you have it.

*Notice the flaking at the scalp - this is exactly why I don't use white leave-ins anymore. I tried a new product today and it left my hair soft, but flake-Y!

How often do you do this? and is the blow dryer damaging at all to the roots? is it damaging to the roots to do this weekly?

[dominicanblowout]

@blackberry815 - I do it every other week, sometimes even less.

Like any heat that you apply to your hair, it can be damaging. However, I find that it's less damaging that using a flat-iron, or curling iron on the hair.

@earthlisegrl09 - You know, so many people have asked for a full video. I had to do a separate video for putting in rolos. I have to try to do another video, but will have to get someone to help with the editing.

I do have a relaxer now, but I relax only when I need it. I usually put one in just before summer, so try to tame the frizzies.

If your hair is slow growing, be sure to get your ends clipped. This will reduce the breakage and keep your length.

just wondering.....would this type of tension on the hair cause breakage???

[dominicanblowout]

@bayouprincess02 - I can cause tension, especially if you pull all the way down the hair shaft. That's why I only blow out my roots AND I don't really pull my hair. I just use the brush to prevent burning my hand with the blower.

That's also another reason I do my own hair. Most stylists have a tendency to PULL the hair, which can lead to breakage.

@gibabybay407 - At "the dominican salon?" You've been to one stylist that uses a metal barrel and have determined that's the only way to do it? Um...NO!

My results are always the same. A fresh blowout leaves my hair fuller and bouncier, but my hair comes out super straight the day after I take down my dubi. I don't need to blow my hair all the way to ends. My goal is to smooth out my roots with the blower; the length of my hair is always straightened from the wrap.

Less heat, healthier hair.

@bayouprincess02 are you kidding? Go around to all the Dominican shops and look at the people who do that. I spent the summer in DR. It was INSANE how many of those shops are on every corner. Most DR women also perm their hair. They are more obsessed with straight hair than American blacks. There were brush barrels EVERYWHERE and they were always full of someone's hair. It's pretty bad. I am not trying to tell you what to do, but TREAD LIGHTLY my friend.

[mszlanlan]

idk why people get a blowdry & flat iron together & think that the blowout is more damaging...

[xXDarkBlueDarkBlueXx]
