Important Key Tips Not Mentioned: I keep my flat irons between 390-400. I’ll only go over 400 if I’m working with extremely course hair and I see that I need to up it. When I do, it never exceeds 410. When blow drying, the dryer should NEVER be directly touching your hair at ANY point. It should only be following wherever the brush is moving. That is how you get heat damage. Leave a tad bit of space between the dryer and your hair and blow dry on the highest heat setting your dryer has. Dryers that have 1,800-2,000 KW work best for silk presses. Last but not least, make sure those roots are completely STRAIGHT!!! That is a must, if your roots are not straight, you’ve just wasted your time. Your roots can take way more heat then anywhere else, so if you need to hit it twice with the flat iron, don’t be afraid. You won’t get heat damage from it. You can also use the mini flat iron for the roots (same method as using a pressing comb) and then flat iron how you regularly would. CERAMIC IRONS are your best friend, so stay away from titanium if you can. Hope this helps 💜
Thank goodness I found this video. I’m TERRIBLE with hair but desperately want to learn to take better care of my hair. Financially, I can’t get my hair done often but I’m tired of looking a mess and wearing my hair in a dreaded, dry, matted bun! Maryland weather also plays a factor in my hair always frizzing up, it’s so unpredictable here and humid!!
@@MsAKBombshell you can always take care of your hair yourself and get the same results as a stylist. Nothing is ever wrong with that route! I’d highly recommend to get your trims and haircuts professionally done though, since you can’t see exactly what needs to go. Ty so much for watching beautiful 💜
@@Nadashab You did an awesome job young lady. It shows that you care about the health of your clients hair and the information you provide to the public. I so have 2 questions, what are the names of the 3 products used prior to the blow dry? And are they available at Sally's? Because I want to try this on my hair but I don't have a clue what to get. Thank you for your time.
Ma'am it has been a month and the press is still pressing, I kid you not. Gonna wash and redo this week. Even my coworker was like damn! 😂😂😂 you have changed my life! 😂😂😂 lysm❤❤❤❤
@@NadashabHey i have a question, Do you have to put them in order? Like leave in, heat protector, serum. Like can you out Leave in, Serum and then heat protector
I have struggled with flat ironing my natural hair for over 15 years, I bought the products mentioned in the video and used as directed. The best flat iron ever, longest without reverting. THANK YOU!
Did it stand up in humidity? I live in Atlanta and I have had issues with frizz since I've moved here and I've tried so many different products that look good until I'm outside for a few minutes
Omg you guys this works!!! I straightened my hair for my leave out and it started reverting within a couple hours. So I watched this video, washed it and tried again with this technique. I’m SHOCKED. It’s been 5 days and I still haven’t had to straighten it again. And I have 4B/4C hair. Tysm!!!! Liked and subscribed 💕
Here is a list of shampoo’s and conditioners that will take your silk press to the next level and give you that salon quality look and feel. You need to use a clarifying shampoo first ( this is to get your hair squeaky clean. You must NOT skip this step). 2nd, use a moisturizing shampoo. And lastly, you can either regularly condition or deep condition. NEVER do both. You’ll over load your hair and weigh it down. Shampoo’s that clarify: Tea tree by Paul Mitchell (do not get the lavender), Oat protein and henna by design essentials, mongongo by Mielle organics. Shampoos that put the moisture right back in after clarifying: Mega Sleek by Matrix, Almond and avocado by design essentials, Honey Creme by design essentials, Macvoil anti aging (TOP TIER), Moisture recovery by Joico. Deep conditioners (can be used to regular condition as well) : Almond butter express by design essentials, K-Pak reconstructer by Joico , Babassu mint by Mielle.
Thank you so so much for this. You know what I noticed that I’m going to have to switch my shampoos I’ve been using the mielle products and I truly believe that that is for those who have that fine naturally curly hair - like my daughter who’s 8 the ingredients in those shampoos like carols daughter and Shea moisture and mielle are not strong enough for my hair so definitely I do need to go back to the old school products as you mentioned above
This tutorial is an ABSOLUTE GAME CHANGER. Used the exact products, followed your instructions to the tee and I’m blown away by the results. My hair would normally start puffing up by the time I started working on the second side. Thank you so much for sharing!
That Paul Mitchell product is the business! It will keep that frizz away for at least two weeks during the summer. Design products are excellent. The after shampoo mint conditioner is it for my crunchy hair. A heat protectant is so important and that blow drying process is too. It makes flat ironing so smooth. Thanks for educating folks on the correct way to do a silk press and make it last.
Thank you for this video! This literally changed the game for me! My hair used to puff by the time I got to the other side of my head. I’m now on day three and it’s 87 degrees out.
The best video ever! Straight to the point. you told the 3 hair products that you need and WHY you need all 3. And you also gave techniques I never knew were so important. Thank you so much. I get so many compliments on my silk press now..it really does last with no frizz!
In that order. I happened upon this combo on my own after literally DECADES of doing my hair by myself. Much trial and error, but now I never need to visit another hair salon. I do all my blowouts myself & get the same results every time, just like you said. That moisture and heat repellent is everything.
This is the best. I've never been able to press my hair let alone try any style off of a youtube tutorial but im so glad i came across this video earlier this year. I tried everything you said and my press did not puff out by the time i got out of the bathroom. Not only that but it lasted for 2 1/2 weeks. I HAVE NEVER gotten this result without going to the salon! As i was pressing it i was in complete shock as to the difference these steps made. A world of thank yous!!! Now I'll only pay for a press if im in time crunch or lazy. Now im back to get a refresher. ❤❤🙏🏽
I know, I've searched for months for a concise, simple silk press tutorial, and here it is, Heaven sent. All others forget to mention steps and do stuff off-camera, then expect you to fill in the process. Geez! This Channel is #1 on haircare. 👍🏾👍🙏♥️💐🌹👏🏾👐🏾
This video and your tips changed my life!!! I was so close to buying a new blow dryer and more products, but this saved me some coins and disappointment cause my silk press turned out flawless! The results were amazing on my 4b/c hair! Thank you, thank you!
This was an excellent tutorial. I was that woman whose hair would puff up before I got to the other half of my hair. Thank you for listing the products first. I purchased it all.
Lord Jesus BLESS YOU! I literally did my silk press using the products you mentioned but I put the serum and heat protection when it was dry and just like you said it poofed up😩. I cannot wait to try it the way you recommended.
I came here to say I tried this method and my hair stayed silky for over 3 weeks. When I go to the salon - my hair ALWAYS frizzes out so thank you!!!!! I’m also in Florida and these products and this method work against the humidity here.
ma'am......you told no lies! I ordered my blow dryer and it was delivered yesterday. I went to cosmoprof and purchased the products you recommended and to Sallys for the brush and BABY.....Me and my daughter had and still have thee best silk press period!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR NOT GATEKEEPING!
Thank you! The hardest part about Cosmo school was being thrown into silk presses without correct products or information. Not fun to learn by trial and error. It’s videos like these that have helped me achieve successful silk presses ❤ thank you. It’s pretty sad too having us use a hot comb and not being trained correct can really mess some hair up!!!
I followed your steps and I can say I can't remember when my hair felt so good and came out this good. I had CHI instead of Paul Mitchell and it came out great I have 8 months of new grow (growing out relaxer) and 4c hair. I thank you a lot. Keep up the good works.
Most honest, simple and well explained silk press video. Thank you, my hair looks like weave now. Girls ask me who did my extension, I just laugh. Thanks you!!!
Used your suggestion, leave in, heat protectant and serum, and got new products (it’s a 10 and super skinny) and my silk press came out bombbb!! Thanks girl 😘
Thank you. I tried your method, and my hair is the straightest it has ever been. I am so pleased! I added Chi Iron Guard because I could not find on the bottles where it talked about them being a heat protectant. But I sprayed them all in with damp hair. I also made Bantu knots overnight to flatten my roots and took them down in the morning. My hair below the root was still damp, and then I did a blowout, and it worked very well. I was able to flat iron on 350 and had great results. I am 4C. High heat is not always needed if you have a good porcelain flat iron.
So glad you enjoyed it! & congratulations love, you’re almost there! Once you’re done, the sky is the limit for you! Take everything you’ve learned and run with it! 😘
Ty 💙 and 3 products max that targets those key things mentioned will always get the job done. It may seem like a lot, but if you portion each thing properly, it’s actually a little.
@@cfoster6804 that's because different hair types will react differently so there's no one right answer my for example i have low density type 4 low porosity... i have to straighten my hair freshly washed with no products
i love how this video is straight to the point and very detailed without to much talking i love this i have watched so many videos and your was just so on point
I have tried so many things trying to get my hair straight and stay that way. This is the only thing that’s worked. Thank you so much, wish I’d seen this video sooner!
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL ADVICE!!! I followed your steps to a “Tee” and hunnttyyyy when I tell you 8days later my hair is STILL in fabulous mode LOOOL I thank you so very much for sharing these helpful yet simple tricks and tips! I have 3 daughters here at home with me so it is definitely tough (financially) to keep up with everyone’s hair!(especially my own) but when I tell you these OVERPRICED salons in NYC won’t see me again! lol I’ll be right in my kitchen sink and bathroom mirror achieving salon results right at home! You are the GOAT for real!!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THAAANNKK YOOUUUU!!!!!!!!!!! Side note: I will definitely be making my way to Sally’s for a new brush though 😉🥰 Thank you again! God Bless
thank you for defining the relationship between you and the hair model, because i was thinking the way you strongly re-positioned her head and then tapped her frown lines i assumed there was a familiar connection cause that's how i do my lil'sister😁😁
This is the best video I've found and I've practically watched almost all of what's available, finally someone that explains well and even tells us what the products do. Thank You.
THANK YOU!!! I followed these directions and guidance (minus the products shared). As replacements I used generic Paul Mitchel products from Sally's Beauty - leave in conditioner, detangling spray with heat protectant and lightweight oil serum. My results were absolutely fantastic!!! I have fine hair and once I thoroughly blow dried, my flat iron did the rest. It has been a week and half and my hair feels just as straight and moisturized as day one. This tutorial deserves a curtsy to you Queen.
I'm gonna try this. I've been struggling. Mine frizzes up once I get to the next section. I was adding the heat protectant and Serum right before blow drying. Now I know to do it while wet. Thanks!
Using these products and technique for my college graduation being held outside TOMORROW! With faith of a mustard seed, Im praying my 4C comes thru! 🙏🏽😂
I gave you a like JUST for saying you are not wasting time with a long intro!!🎉 Why do other RUclipsrs still describe what we can clearly see ourselves?!! (Rhetorical)
I’m so glad I found this video. My hair looks like I went to the salon. I just did it before going to a wedding. Had me thinking I should go to cosmetology school and open my own salon. 😂
Thank you for all the information and for demonstrating each step so detailed. I especially thank you for sharing the products used to achieve such a beautiful result. Usually, RUclips stylists would rush the process without providing any product information like it's a big secret or something. Thank you for being transparent and I subscribed without hesitation. Keep this good videos coming , please.
@@Nadashab No problem at all. I also learned from this video which was to apply leave in conditioner, heat protectant & a serum to wet hair so that the silk press will NOT get ruined by humidity. I might be a gentleman but I still enjoy watching hair videos such as this one as they're really enjoyable as well as educational & informative! 🙂
Okay so I have straightened my own hair multiple times and it never comes out right. Always end up going to the Dominicans lol I followed your steps last night and BABY!!!!! Luscious. Thank you thank you thank you !
Great video! I’m currently in cosmetology school. We weren’t taught the proper way to do a silk press from beginning to end. I was wondering why my client’s hair wasn’t coming out silky straight. Thanks for all the great tips! I will put them to use on my next client. New subscriber here!😃
❤❤❤❤❤💐💐💐💐thank you thank you!! and thank you!!!💐💐💐💐💐 I did this hair tutorial and experienced the big difference. Every woman needs to know this!! I will never go back to the way I use to do my hair again. .EVER!!!!
I did an outdoor activity with my at home blow out in the hot Florida sun and I saw the pictures later and yeah. I look like a crazy person. I definitely need to try your tips.
My teen told me she's tired of her curls lol So I'm learning to do her hair. I did a good job but it was not very straight. Esp the ends. I've always had a problem with the ends. This video is so well done! Your voice is so easy to listen to. Your knowledge is obvious. And you're a good teacher. Thank you so much! I've learned so much. You're not just randomly chatting or over-explaining. Like you said, straight to the point. I didn't know how to do the products. Thank you a gazillion times❤🎉
I can’t wait to try this. I went to a natural stylist and I love her but as soon as I walked out the door my hair started to frizz. Literally 125$ down the drain 😢
Had silk press before and thought that the put chemicals to straighten it. Cut hair off grew hair back tried it again New Salon. Woke up hair was a afro !! I tipped well ...passed off this a.m Ty 4 this video...going to purchase serum today
I did this on my 4c natural hair and I promise you your a life saver I have been trying all types of things for years and this method WORKS!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!! YOU ROCK
I’ve tried so many methods to get my hair straight like I used to before wearing a bunch of protective styles and was about to give up. This worked on my 4C hair perfectly, TYSM 😭
@@Nadashab my hair lately has been so dry when I blow dry it - hair be flying all over the bathroom and I’m assuming the shampoo I’m using isn’t giving my hair enough moisture or something.
Makes so much sense. Intriguing. Professional and safe advice: love, make sure you're covered. Dont let your chest out like that. A full shirt is plenty. 💪🏾
Thank you so much for watching and I appreciate your feedback 🥰 hopefully you were able to focus more on the video and not on my attire, as I happened to be in the comfort of my own home. I will always dress as I please and I hope that you do the same 🥰 so happy you loved the video and I appreciate your support 🥰
I have never had a silk press or blowout that doesn't frizz (fine 4a hair). Hairdressers used to think I was being ridiculous until the second I step outside my ends frizz up. Will try this on my own to see how it works #trusttheprocess 🤞🏾👌🏾
Girl the searching I had to do just to come back and find you!! I thought I subscribed when I first watched this video. I just want to say consider yourself hugged! I'll be the first to admit, I did not spend $30 on the serum. I got the Fructis instead. But I still followed your steps and when I tell you this silk press was silk pressing... Thank you so much for a useful video and much love from the Chi ❤!
I just came across your page. I love how you walked us through everything and the results. I'm just getting out the hospital and sent my son to get these products since I'm to weak to drive and go get my hair did. I wanted to come into the new year looking fabulous. 😊
I’m so happy to hear this! I’m glad you are finally out of the hospital and I hope you are able to regain your strength back. Thank you so much for your support and please let me know how your hair turns out! 💙
One of biggest gripe as a natural when getting silk press is that they they dont twist the sections like that! The stylist leave the hair hanging and then start tugging on the hair wondering why its knotted up again
My mom always twisted our hair like that during the drying process. I don’t know why people think it will not dry up if you leave in all out like that. Plus it is easier to dry when you section it off.
I have the skinny serum, but it doesn't say anything about being a heat protector up to 450 or a heat protector at all for that matter, only that it's humidity resistant, reduces drying time and adds shine.
I really appreciate you sharing your technique and products used. With 2 teenage girls, I can't always afford to get all of our hair done professionally.
My hair would never get straight until I tried this method. I was convinced that my hair just couldn’t get straight since the salon could not press my natural hair good.
Thank youuu! I could not figure out why my hair keeps frizzing immediately after I straighten it! I used to straighten my hair all the time years ago and never had this issue I'm having now. Now it all makes sense, back then I used 3 products, some sort of leave in, heat protectant spray, and serum. I was about to give up on straightening my hair lol.
Great great tips. My daughter has 4c 20" of hair and I struggle with trying to get a beautiful silk press. I will try all of your tips (even the ones posted in the comment section). Sounds like they will be quite useful.

I also made Bantu knots overnight to flatten my roots and took them down in the morning. My hair below the root was still damp, and then I did a blowout, and it worked very well. I was able to flat iron on 350 and had great results. I am 4C. High heat is not always needed if you have a good porcelain flat iron.
Thank you so much for this video !! Currently 200 hours away from finishing cosmetology school ! 🥰
So glad you enjoyed it! & congratulations love, you’re almost there! Once you’re done, the sky is the limit for you! Take everything you’ve learned and run with it! 😘
Good luck fam! You can do anything ❤️
Really informative and lovely results. I did my own straighten today and it’s a bit frizzy, so I will try this next time.
So detailed and informant. I always thought more products can help the hair to revert back quicker but I was wrong.
Ty 💙 and 3 products max that targets those key things mentioned will always get the job done. It may seem like a lot, but if you portion each thing properly, it’s actually a little.
@@Nadashab thanks ❤for the info, will try to do a silk press.
If you ask some stylists they will agree with you. So much conflicting information. 🤦🏾♀️
@@cfoster6804 that's true I guess we just have to inform ourselves on the products we use as well🤷♀️
@@cfoster6804 that's because different hair types will react differently so there's no one right answer my for example i have low density type 4 low porosity... i have to straighten my hair freshly washed with no products
i love how this video is straight to the point and very detailed without to much talking i love this i have watched so many videos and your was just so on point
I know im late but I followed these steps using similar products and I have to say this is the best home blow out I ever did.
Thank you! People still gate keep this information. Really appreciate this
I have tried so many things trying to get my hair straight and stay that way. This is the only thing that’s worked. Thank you so much, wish I’d seen this video sooner!
😇🩵
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL ADVICE!!! I followed your steps to a “Tee” and hunnttyyyy when I tell you 8days later my hair is STILL in fabulous mode LOOOL I thank you so very much for sharing these helpful yet simple tricks and tips! I have 3 daughters here at home with me so it is definitely tough (financially) to keep up with everyone’s hair!(especially my own) but when I tell you these OVERPRICED salons in NYC won’t see me again! lol I’ll be right in my kitchen sink and bathroom mirror achieving salon results right at home! You are the GOAT for real!!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THAAANNKK YOOUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!
Side note: I will definitely be making my way to Sally’s for a new brush though 😉🥰 Thank you again! God Bless
@@kwhite9437 😍 this makes me so happy!!
@@Nadashab Keep sharing great content & doing what you do Miss Lady!! I am going to try achieving some curls too next time around wish me luck 🤭
This worked for me!!!!!!!!!!!! My hair is bone straight!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!
🖤
This looks amazing and them roots after the blow dry 😘 chefs kiss
Thank you 🥰
I've discovered that this product is also excellent at detangling and preventing tangles if you just want to wear your hair natural.
thank you for defining the relationship between you and the hair model, because i was thinking the way you strongly re-positioned her head and then tapped her frown lines i assumed there was a familiar connection cause that's how i do my lil'sister😁😁
She has a bad habit of making those faces. I noticed it while looking up at the camera. I said aht aht before these folks think I’m hurting you 🤣
This is the best video I've found and I've practically watched almost all of what's available, finally someone that explains well and even tells us what the products do. Thank You.
Thank you so much! Glad you found it helpful!
THANK YOU!!! I followed these directions and guidance (minus the products shared). As replacements I used generic Paul Mitchel products from Sally's Beauty - leave in conditioner, detangling spray with heat protectant and lightweight oil serum. My results were absolutely fantastic!!! I have fine hair and once I thoroughly blow dried, my flat iron did the rest. It has been a week and half and my hair feels just as straight and moisturized as day one. This tutorial deserves a curtsy to you Queen.
Hello did you get any frizz?
@@cecblackberry No frizz at all
I finally tried it your way. Conditioner, serum and heat protectant and girrrll you’re right. My hair finally coming out as straight as I wanted.
😍
This is the best Silk press tutorial I’ve seen and I’ve watched tons of them lol
Thank you so much Tierra! I'm glad you love it!
I'm gonna try this. I've been struggling. Mine frizzes up once I get to the next section. I was adding the heat protectant and Serum right before blow drying. Now I know to do it while wet. Thanks!
Using these products and technique for my college graduation being held outside TOMORROW! With faith of a mustard seed, Im praying my 4C comes thru! 🙏🏽😂
😂🖤
How did your hair hold up?
This is the best explanation of products and humidity that I’ve seen 🙌🏾 thank you!
I gave you a like JUST for saying you are not wasting time with a long intro!!🎉
Why do other RUclipsrs still describe what we can clearly see ourselves?!! (Rhetorical)
Ong I do not need to hear about how you sat between granny's legs and ate chicken liver growing up, get to the point 😂
Thank you! I learned the importance of adding the 3 products while the hair is wet and taking my time when blow drying. Thank you once again!
Thank you for watching Nancy 🩵
I’m so glad I found this video. My hair looks like I went to the salon. I just did it before going to a wedding. Had me thinking I should go to cosmetology school and open my own salon. 😂
🤣🤣 I love it !
I used your tips and let me tell you... it worked! Usually it fluffs up by the 3rd day. Not this time. Thank you ❤
Thank you for all the information and for demonstrating each step so detailed. I especially thank you for sharing the products used to achieve such a beautiful result. Usually, RUclips stylists would rush the process without providing any product information like it's a big secret or something. Thank you for being transparent and I subscribed without hesitation. Keep this good videos coming , please.
Thank you Lori 🫶🏾 I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank you! I did exactly how you explained and my hair is silky and straight… ❤
😍😍😍
You deserve your flowers for this one! 🌹🌹
You did gorgeous on styling your sister's hair. She looks beautiful with the silk press.
Thank you so much 🥹
@@Nadashab No problem at all. I also learned from this video which was to apply leave in conditioner, heat protectant & a serum to wet hair so that the silk press will NOT get ruined by humidity. I might be a gentleman but I still enjoy watching hair videos such as this one as they're really enjoyable as well as educational & informative! 🙂
You litterally just taught me the wholleeee reason why my hair would frizz up everytime lol wow thank you
This video just saved my hair in the summer heat ! Works so good ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Okay so I have straightened my own hair multiple times and it never comes out right. Always end up going to the Dominicans lol I followed your steps last night and BABY!!!!! Luscious. Thank you thank you thank you !
Yassss! I love it 🤎
Great video! I’m currently in cosmetology school. We weren’t taught the proper way to do a silk press from beginning to end. I was wondering why my client’s hair wasn’t coming out silky straight. Thanks for all the great tips! I will put them to use on my next client. New subscriber here!😃
Hi gorgeous! Thank you for watching and subscribing! Glad that I could help 💜
❤❤❤❤❤💐💐💐💐thank you thank you!! and thank you!!!💐💐💐💐💐 I did this hair tutorial and experienced the big difference. Every woman needs to know this!! I will never go back to the way I use to do my hair again. .EVER!!!!
I did an outdoor activity with my at home blow out in the hot Florida sun and I saw the pictures later and yeah. I look like a crazy person. I definitely need to try your tips.
That's gonna revert anyways due to sweat don't forget our hair isn't made to be straight
My teen told me she's tired of her curls lol So I'm learning to do her hair. I did a good job but it was not very straight. Esp the ends. I've always had a problem with the ends.
This video is so well done! Your voice is so easy to listen to. Your knowledge is obvious. And you're a good teacher. Thank you so much! I've learned so much. You're not just randomly chatting or over-explaining. Like you said, straight to the point. I didn't know how to do the products. Thank you a gazillion times❤🎉
🩵 thank you so much for watching! So happy to help!
This makes me miss my older sister doing my hair when i was a teenager 🥺 lol good times good times.
I can’t wait to try this. I went to a natural stylist and I love her but as soon as I walked out the door my hair started to frizz. Literally 125$ down the drain 😢
Omg! They kill me with that lol.
So many tips in a short video! That brush sounds like a good idea. I have been heat free for 5 years and I am finally ready to switch it up! TFS!
You will love the brush 💜
Had silk press before and thought that the put chemicals to straighten it. Cut hair off grew hair back tried it again New Salon.
Woke up hair was a afro !! I tipped well ...passed off this a.m
Ty 4 this video...going to purchase serum today
Thank you, Sis this has saved my life. Best Silk Press tutorial on RUclips.🙏🏾
I did this on my 4c natural hair and I promise you your a life saver I have been trying all types of things for years and this method WORKS!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!! YOU ROCK
😍😍😍
Does it work in really humid places like Atlanta?
I’ve tried so many methods to get my hair straight like I used to before wearing a bunch of protective styles and was about to give up. This worked on my 4C hair perfectly, TYSM 😭
Beautifully done. The hair looks nice and silky-smooth. Everything is well explained.
I wish I could have you as my hair stylist.
Love how informative your videos are! ♥️ Straight to the point and no fluff
Hey, babe! Thank you so much! I'm glad my videos are of help to you. Hopefully you've learned a lot so far 💙
Yes!!!
@@Nadashab thank you for this informative information.
@@Nadashab my hair lately has been so dry when I blow dry it - hair be flying all over the bathroom and I’m assuming the shampoo I’m using isn’t giving my hair enough moisture or something.
@@mbrook4983 take a look at my pinned comments, I have a list of products that will help you 💙
Makes so much sense. Intriguing.
Professional and safe advice: love, make sure you're covered. Dont let your chest out like that. A full shirt is plenty. 💪🏾
Thank you so much for watching and I appreciate your feedback 🥰 hopefully you were able to focus more on the video and not on my attire, as I happened to be in the comfort of my own home. I will always dress as I please and I hope that you do the same 🥰 so happy you loved the video and I appreciate your support 🥰
I have never had a silk press or blowout that doesn't frizz (fine 4a hair). Hairdressers used to think I was being ridiculous until the second I step outside my ends frizz up. Will try this on my own to see how it works #trusttheprocess 🤞🏾👌🏾
How did it turn out?
Girl the searching I had to do just to come back and find you!! I thought I subscribed when I first watched this video. I just want to say consider yourself hugged! I'll be the first to admit, I did not spend $30 on the serum. I got the Fructis instead. But I still followed your steps and when I tell you this silk press was silk pressing... Thank you so much for a useful video and much love from the Chi ❤!
Aww thank you so much 🥹🖤 I’m happy to hear my method worked for you!
I just came across your page. I love how you walked us through everything and the results. I'm just getting out the hospital and sent my son to get these products since I'm to weak to drive and go get my hair did. I wanted to come into the new year looking fabulous. 😊
I’m so happy to hear this! I’m glad you are finally out of the hospital and I hope you are able to regain your strength back. Thank you so much for your support and please let me know how your hair turns out! 💙
I just tried this method!! It works like a charm! Wish I would have known about it sooner!! Thanks doll! ❤
One of biggest gripe as a natural when getting silk press is that they they dont twist the sections like that! The stylist leave the hair hanging and then start tugging on the hair wondering why its knotted up again
😩😩🤣🤣 so true
My mom always twisted our hair like that during the drying process. I don’t know why people think it will not dry up if you leave in all out like that. Plus it is easier to dry when you section it off.
Facts
Wow then you need to find a stylist that specializes in natural hair because that detangling and twisting process is key
I’m a stylist and twist wit up because that way is away from the area I’m working with
Her hair texture plays a part in it as well. Thicker and course hair is so much harder to maintain. This was beautiful!
Skinny serum is bomb! It’s also a heat protector up to 450
I have the skinny serum, but it doesn't say anything about being a heat protector up to 450 or a heat protector at all for that matter, only that it's humidity resistant, reduces drying time and adds shine.
@@africajourney2182 It's not a heat protectant.
I love her hair and you both have pretty rich skintone ✨
I really appreciate you sharing your technique and products used. With 2 teenage girls, I can't always afford to get all of our hair done professionally.
Thank You for sharing I am still transitioning but I need this info so when I do my silk press I’ll know what to use. Your sister’s hair is beautiful
She looks like the spitting image of Former First Lady Michelle Obama, just gorgeous
Aww thank you! Such a sweet compliment 🥰
I was coming to write this lol
She definitely do!
Yes she does
She truly does look like First Lady Michelle Obama.
My hair would never get straight until I tried this method. I was convinced that my hair just couldn’t get straight since the salon could not press my natural hair good.
You inspired me to straighten my hair! Thank you for displaying the products!
💜💜
Thank youuu! I could not figure out why my hair keeps frizzing immediately after I straighten it!
I used to straighten my hair all the time years ago and never had this issue I'm having now. Now it all makes sense, back then I used 3 products, some sort of leave in, heat protectant spray, and serum. I was about to give up on straightening my hair lol.
Her hair is beautiful and healthy it’s just flowed so naturally
I thank God for finding your video. I am in love with my hair after following your instructions. Thank you❤
Great great tips. My daughter has 4c 20" of hair and I struggle with trying to get a beautiful silk press. I will try all of your tips (even the ones posted in the comment section). Sounds like they will be quite useful.
Retired Licensed Stylist!!! At 25! Lovin it
