Sometimes I feel like hair dressers themselves don’t understand what the term “silk” means in a press. Silk moves fluidly, flawlessly, seamlessly. The hair is stiff, overly saturated and you can even see the flat iron lines when she goes half way up the hair shaft near the end. Heat was way to high for this hair type. That level of heat and that amount of product is for much tighter/kinkier.
Yes this is so right! For a silk press you should really only use one product, the heat protectant of your choice and that’s it. Too many products weigh the hair down and make it stiff.
I like the silk before pressing, then adding the finishing spray after I’m done pressing. Adding too many products beforehand makes my hair too oily and flaky the next day.
@@LexiimaWriter i don’t need to see it on type for , you are the one that would love to so , get to recording and be kind enough to share like This woman.
@@Bnizzofashizzo Dear Troll ... I said what I said and I look forward to the new content for type 4 from THIS creator. I like her. Now if you want me to make a video ... pay me. 😂 I will send it to just you. Do you need my cash app?
Thank you so much for this video. I tried this for my daughters homecoming and it turned out pretty good. Some of the products I was unable to get, but I got the next best thing. I tried this technique and it turn out nice. Once, I actually have the right products & tools, I know it will be even better. Thank you
I wonder if people realize not everyone likes their hair the exact same way. I prefer the "weighed down" look. I get tired of having perfect hair then opening the door to the salon and my hair is blown everywhere. Or walking out into the humidity and the puffy challenging my gangsta.
Exactly. As someone with extremely thick and dense hair, when I do a silk press I want it as flat as possible. The people in the comments are honestly just hating.
@@cfoster6804 I agree with you. I went from having a relaxer to being a straight natural. My stylist used Moroccan Oil products on my 3b 3c hair and although my hair looks silky it is not weighed down and with the Moroccan Oil products as soon as a light breeze blows then my hair blows in the breeze and it looks crazy. I want products to weigh my hair down so I am going to try this routine using the same Chi products.
I love weighed down hair because it stays straighter longer! But this model's hair looks sticky. Her hair looked clumped together with no movement. The hair was already straight from the blow dryer, but then you used a 415 degree flat iron to burn it straight. No wonder her hair is heat damaged!
My theory is: I think the producer or owner asked the stylist to use each product on the hair again at then end to get more shots (because why else would she continue to layer product on like that?) Causing this silk press to take longer and the model was tired af, that smile says it all. She was OVER IT! And she knew her hair was fried at this point. The stylist and model seemed irritated and uncomfortable in the last bit. I’m in shock that she layered so much product on over and over for a silk press.
Girl I think it’s her hair hair but it’s just heat damage. You saw when she straightened that one piece hair and literally that flat iron fried her hair.
@@Tiff3nym Always some Type4 hair girl in comments hating . Her hair isnt damaged If you want to see that type of hair done go find people on you tube with type 4 hair . Her hair
Great results! Letting the hair cool is key. I also like to use the Chi Keratin silk infusion products (shampoo, conditioner, leave in) along with the Chi iron guard heat protectant
The point of a silk press is for it to be silky and have movement, shine and flexibility. This is stiff, you can see the line of the straightener and it doesn’t look natural. I used the silk by Chi and never understood why my hair looked so weighed down and sticky and that’s exactly why. The products are way too heavy. Even if you use a drop your hair still is heavy and if you put it in a ponytail and remove the holder, it’ll stay that way until you wash your hair. I use a new product now and it looks like I was born with straight hair, it’s bouncy, flexible and shiny, plus there’s no residue left on my hands. To save money, if you enjoy your hair looking like this, buy a bottle of $3 blue magic from Walmart and it’ll do exactly the same.
Great information and thanks for the demo. I feel she had way too much product in her hair. That would have been better on someone with really thick hair. I do appreciate seeing how all the products work.
What were you thinking her hair doesn’t even require all of the products that were used ? And spraying each peace of hair like that before passing the flat iron through was literally insane 😂
Can I use it on damp hair and letting it air dry?? Or should I wait for my hair to dry, then apply before straightening? Do I need a heat protector spray too while using this?
It really doesn’t look bad or super greasy. Idk what the comments are talking about. But what I will say is the texture of the hair matters. If this was a 4c head, this would surely be much stiffer from all of that extra product
Why would the hair need to be “married” mid shaft? You literally created a dent in the hair. And then it seemed like there was even more product build up. At the end the hair like just looked tired and really flat.
Chi products are one of the best that doesn't weight the hair down. Compared to others that I have tried. I do agree I think its to much product lol I just use the silk-out one and the red chi spray for silking out that's it.
Its pretty either way but i think i liked it better before u pressed it out it look thinner after the pressed out but before it looked thicker and i like the thicker look
Yes. We have these: chi.com/chi-products/chi-haircare/set-style-finish/chi-finishing-pomade/ and chi.com/chi-products/chi-man/chi-man-palm-of-your-hand-pomade/
Today 8-20-23, the first time seeing this video, and I must say I would have been impressed had you chosen 4 B or C natural hair. You probably could have achieved the saud result in her hair using using a iron comb, and why is the client standing?
Did a terrible job displaying Chi Products.. great line but this stylist know NOTHING about a silk press.. clarifying shampoo, conditioner, light heat protector, and serum is all you need.. not two different holding sprays not extra serum not even sheen spray because it’s too oily the hair should be naturally shiny and moveable.. less is more with a silk press and heating that holding spray onto the hair was an absolute NEGATIVE!!
Not y’all OUTRIGHT hating in these damn comments! I’m glad I saw the ending because the way all of y’all sitting up here lying??? 😂 Her hair looks healthy and silky! She has fine hair so some curls could’ve given it more volume. But the stylist did a fabulous job and the model looks gorgeous! Stop the bullshit!
Her hair looked bouncy before the 2nd spray, the heat was too high and her hair looked straight already. The amount of high heat on each section of already straight hair made me nervous
😩😩😩😩 dime size on the whole section? I use dime on each of my parts cause when I did it like the stylist. My hair poofed back up in ten minutes smh.. so when I do it my way it last for 25 minutes lol.. I need a blow dryer I think.
People you don't know I always had in between long curly hair but I wish I knew how to do this my hair goes on a damp wet banana curl looking like a cinnamon bun now my hair line is loosing hair
No ma’am it’s a no for me. Multiple passes while pulling the flat iron downwards along with too much hair spray is a recipe for heat damage which is what she already appears to have. She put on her best fake smile.
Good Lord, I am good without my hair strands being married if that means unnecessary passes with the flat iron. If you keep putting all that heat in her hair, her hair is going to be divorced from her head!
Hair like this most of the products should be put in while wet and very minimal when dry. Her hair had no shine durning the drying phase which is a tell tell sign of having to figure out as you go to coat the hair with product to get some type of shine Which ended up making the hair appear heavy. Not to mention the double pass of the heat on the hair.. I know her ends are burned straight, no curl will return when hair is wet. It looked ok but also superficially hydrated (surface illusion of being hydrated) Good work but I think I’d pass on these products

@@Abbymiller91992If the products are weightless then you have nothing to worry about. It’s about not being heavy handed with products.

Her hair was practically straight before the blow dry. Came out nice!
Exactly...wish they would use kinky coarse hair.
Natural for 8 years. I've never used flat irons since. Can't wait to try this !

Her hair was absolutely not heavy or weighed down with product.

It's a no for me. The hair looks heavy and I'm not here for it. The idea of a silk press is movement.

My experience with these products, easy to go heavy.

Lmbo!😁😅😂.....the way she said it.....nothing gets passed her! Excellent observance!
My hair it don't move 😁😂
She cooked the hell out that poor girls hair. At least she’s pretty so she can just shave it off and start over.
Maybe the stylist is jealous of the girl long hair and decided to damage it.
@@angieang26 her hair isn’t that long and the stylist probably is just not good at this
I love this model. She is giving us her best smile. Go ahead girl!
Her smile looks so fake lol

Yeah it’s too many products probably sponsored. But I didn’t know to use a flexible hold. But her hair did look fried and there was no curls
Even I was exhausted by the end of all that!!😅
This is *not* 3B hair. It’s type 4 hair that’s either texlaxed, texturized, or heat damaged. The roots, edges, and nape reveal her true hair type.
I asked if she had a relaxer because I don't see the curls popping.
Girl I think it’s her hair hair but it’s just heat damage. You saw when she straightened that one piece hair and literally that flat iron fried her hair.

What new products do you use?
Hey can u plz share the new products ur using now x
What u use??
girl hush dont no one want no greasy hair grease lol
Her hair looks great! Forget the haters!!
Great video! Can you provide links to the tools & products used? Thank you🥰
Thank you for sharing the products and the process !
It looks weighed down, too many products. Hard pass for me.
It’s giving stiff and oily 🥺
Way too greasy and bad straightener lines.
That was a lot of product layering. Model is gorgeous but I’ll pass as well.
Nicely done. I haven’t tried the black spray product yet. May try it out
She has heat damage towards her ends , it looks weighed down, has no movement
I love this! I’m considering trying this for my presses instead of DE

I thought the same thing 😂 poor girl. Her hair was SIZZLING ! 😂
Beautiful model but that is a greasy weighed-down mess. The Chi silk infusion should be used minimally because it is heavy.
Imagine some people wanting their hair to look like that. Not everyone likes their hair like you like yours.
Some people like the dry, shot out matted look with a few lint balls.
@@devilmecare 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😩😩😩😩

Cute. Thanks for the video.
I like the CHI Lava iron😍

She has a straightest grade of hair you don't have to do anything to it really just flat iron it
She has a permanent or relaxer already.
Very informative and helpful.
too many passes through the hair no wonder she has heat damage YIKES
Not "on today" 😆
Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️ is this product available in stores?
Absolutely not. Way to much product .
I came here to say this.
😂😂😂😂😂
Chi products are one of the best that doesn't weight the hair down. Compared to others that I have tried.
I do agree I think its to much product lol I just use the silk-out one and the red chi spray for silking out that's it.
I keep eyeing the Keratin line is it like a keratin Treatment?? Will it damage or loosen my curls ??
Keratin is good for a silk press
I'm sure it is easy for this hair to be straight. You can tell by the texture of her hair.
Love it more videos like this please 😍😍
can u do a step by step for begginers like every step
Too much product, too much heat.
great tutorial!
Those ends needed trimming a little but the end result was pretty
I just got some chi silk and silk + keriten...going to try one on each side. My question is what do the sprays do?
Too much product. That's a no go for me. Hair is weighed down
Too many products before flat iron just weighs the hair down. Product overload.
wished you had put a link for the tools and was unable to find the blow dryer with comb :( even at Amazon
Beautiful hair❤
Parker I forgot to ask what degree do the flat iron get how hot???
Its pretty either way but i think i liked it better before u pressed it out it look thinner after the pressed out but before it looked thicker and i like the thicker look
I'm excited to try this on my natural hair. Does Chi have any heavy hold pomade or
Edge control?
Yes. We have these: chi.com/chi-products/chi-haircare/set-style-finish/chi-finishing-pomade/ and chi.com/chi-products/chi-man/chi-man-palm-of-your-hand-pomade/

Is Silk Infusion a heat protector ?
Yes
Why all of those products?!
This is not a silk press. Hair looks three weeks old. Too heavy from all the products.
Perfect 🤩 👌🏾….thank you
Hey hair looked liked it had some heat damage prior to how drying
What products do you suggest to use silk press for silver/gray natural hair. I don’t like the yellow tint the heat leaves in my beautiful gray hair
Looks great! Tell her don't cut it as long as it is healthy!
Her hair looked bouncy before the 2nd spray, the heat was too high and her hair looked straight already. The amount of high heat on each section of already straight hair made me nervous
This hair stylish uses the flat iron too many times. Only one passage is needed if you know what you are doing.
What heat protectant spray do you use??
Can I use the chi on my dry hair then a heat protectant spray then straighten?
The silk infusion is a heat protectant as well
Woyld be nice ti see excatly all steps...
Hold on 420 degrees woah I never go over 220, even on the thickest strand 😣
This looks really weighed down
extremely weighed down. She used too many different products just to try to sell them to us. who the hell uses holding spray on their silk presses.
@@rissa1715 Right! Chi Silk infusion is heavy enough on its own. She used 4 different products before flat ironing!
Does she has a perm? I don't see any bounce back from curls?
Why is she holding the straightener like that?
🧡 your video
Too much heat
Too much products used on the hair.... A Silk press isn't supposed to look that oily and stiff with no mouvement.

A greasy mess, all them straightening lines chile 🥴

Love the lesson but you keeping the flat iron on that roots making me nervous

She dont know wtf she doing .. they need to delete this video its 2022 not 1994 . Its way to much product and the hair dont have no bounce at all

Spraying it and using the silk, will it leave a burnt smell? Won't spraying every section burn your hair out? Arosol spray causes cancer!!!! N
