However the front of my hair where the part was is permed. So when i blow dry my natural hair, i usually use a brush and put the blowdryer really close because i dont know any other meathod of getting it straight. I know this is damaging my hair thus i was wondering what you thought i should do to get my hair straighter without pressing itEricahttp://facebook.com/ms2spectacularnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-82099568388000810962011-01-17T13:19:28.347-08:002011-01-17T13:19:28.347-08:00What is the best brush to use if I don't have ...What is the best brush to use if I don't have a comb attachment?india henriquezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12056211328672867660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-13385524350114448872010-12-27T08:48:54.002-08:002010-12-27T08:48:54.002-08:00Do you use a brush or a comb attachment?Do you use a brush or a comb attachment?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-38761015249312330282010-12-25T03:39:11.712-08:002010-12-25T03:39:11.712-08:00I use other Roux products as well and always wonde...I use other Roux products as well and always wondered about the performance of the Fermodyl products.

All of your hard work shines through in every single detail!<br /><br />I have been transitioning for 5 months and now that I can no longer do the slicked back bun and I can't use scarves (due to excessive use and thinning of edges), I feel frustrated. I don't have a lot of time to spend on my hair and my flat twist skills are far from stellar, so I have been feeling a bit annoyed by this whole process lately. Seeing all the beautiful pictures of women like me with hair like mine on your website has really perked me up. Thank you so much for your website! It has been such an inspiration for me to keep on pushing!Downtown Foodie of Richmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04227050282396691439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-53535436443735509492010-09-10T21:43:32.810-07:002010-09-10T21:43:32.810-07:00Blow drying just breaks off my hair no matter how ...Blow drying just breaks off my hair no matter how hard I try. <br /><br />There is one waist length natural who has a special regimen which includes blow drying and it works for her. <br /><br />Yet it has always broken off my hair.big chophttp://www.naturalhairgrows.com/big-chop-natural-hair.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-79860889203808489652010-05-31T21:56:05.498-07:002010-05-31T21:56:05.498-07:00@Tonia of Chic Modern Vintage; Your welcome!
@Lou...@Tonia of Chic Modern Vintage; Your welcome!<br /><br />@LouLou I like the tension method as well, however my roots are always a tad kinky after doing it. Have you tried using a round brush while flat ironing? It has been a God-send.<br /><br />@Hell Notes for Beauty; Yay! Glad you like! You know I have YET to try a roller set? I keep saying I am going to try it....then I chicken out.<br /><br />@Alana I may have to try that! Thanks for the recommendation! I love trying new products!<br /><br />@Stella B; You are very welcome! I am glad it came on time! Blow drying is definitely direct heat. And I don't consider a hooded dryer direct heat!<br /><br />@i.heart.glam; I am going to have to try that bantu method.

The only way I can blow dry my hair is after getting out the shower and detangling my hair, i put it into 4 bantu knots (2 on each side) let it airdry for a few hours (or sit under the dryer if i'm in a rush)...then when about 75% dry I blowdry with cool air...my hair comes out extremely soft, bouncy, and extremely tamable.i.heart.glamhttp://www.beglamrus.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-63624554135082331302010-05-26T18:40:18.256-07:002010-05-26T18:40:18.256-07:00Thanks MTM!

I always want to go heavy on the heat protectant. Guess I don't get enuf practice, but that's about to change. A question for you-would you say blow drying is direct heat, whereas dryer heat is considered indirect heat?

I've watched so many YT clips and tried different heat protectants and I still haven't found the best technique. So far the tension method has worked the best but my roots are still too coiled to give me a good flat iron job following it.louLoUnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-65793524169521483932010-05-26T10:48:29.032-07:002010-05-26T10:48:29.032-07:00Great tips.
