| Why not just wear it curly and stop fighting against her natural curl? |
|
I have thick 2C/3A hair and use the Revlon dryer occasionally.
The easiest way I've found to use it is to wash my hair at night and put in a cream conditioner. In the morning, my hair is mostly dry and then I straighten it. I use the Chi Iron Guard as a heat protectant, and when I'm all done, I spray with hairspray to hold. I can go 3-4 days before I need to wash again. Note that I don't aim to have stick straight hair - I wind up with a slight wave and I'm fine with that. |
Some of us like variety |
I agree that many people like variety, but this quote from OP: "Praying for a miracle. Her hair is so so frizzy and curly." implies to me that she sees something wrong with her DD's natural texture and wants to "fix" it. It would likely be easier and certainly less damaging, for DD to learn how to curly style her hair for most days, while saving the straightening for the occasional change. |
| You absolutely cannot use this on wet hair. Get Redken One United spray for her hair, then do a rough blow dry to get it 80% dry. FINISH with the Revlon tool to get it smooth and straight. I repeat again, no matter what any rando on this board claims they do, DO NOT use it on wet hair to dry the hair. It will cause extreme damage. |
I just know you have short hair with tons of breakage , damn. This is awful for hair. |
I do, it’s fine. I do not have “extreme damage.” |
You are literally stretching your hair and breaking it if you aren’t rough drying first. I promise you that it looks works than you think. |
Yeah I just knew someone with scraggly thin hair would be like “I do it it’s fine.” No it isn’t. Your hair is fried but this child has healthy hair and mom needs to keep it that way, hence me telling her to ignore the people like you who use it on soaking wet hair and have deluded yourself into thinking it looks ok. |
Me too. I've been using it on 80% wet hair (I do my makeup first so it Air dried for 5 minutes) for 5+ years and my hair looks and feels better than it does when I air dry on the weekends. I have thick wavy hair (not curly) and I like to use OI Milk. I use the lower heat setting because the handle gets too hot on high! |
| It won't work on frizzy curly hair. From what I can tell it works on limp, straight hair and nothing else. |
I agree with this. -curly haired girl whose straight haired mom constantly complained about and poorly styled my hair and made me feel bad about it |
Lol not |
Not if you have thick, coarse, curly hair like me. I use it on wet hair and it works great for me! |
| Just get the Dyson Airwrap. It won’t dry out / burn your hair and works 10,000 x better. |
