when my hair was longer, i would air dry in a ponytail. and i always detangle in the shower. while its in a ponytail, i dont touch or manipulate so it doesnt get tangled. also using a leave in conditioner will help keep the tangles at bay
I chickened out and had my mom braid it again after I washed it but it feels like she ripping hairs out when she does and I hate it, she has no patience at all.

SilverRain 80 are you relaxed or natural? Don't be scared to ask your mom to be patient with your hair and your head.Show her how u do it gently and if she can't do it that way...just do it yourself. Ibeen there, trust me!
I am in transition I would say about 75% natural but my hair is really thick so it feels like 175%. I cannot braid to save my life plus left hand does not function well so I am considering cutting off the rest of the relaxed hair very soon...it will b a year August 6th...Im sooo nervous!!!! When I blow dry it its looks fine but once it sweats/humidifies/puffs out...the texture difference is not so cute...as much I want to hold onto the length it may have to go. The bottom is all natural and the top has about 6-8 inches of relaxed hair....can you imagine a super thick year old fro under a helmet of straight hair???...lololol
I usually just pull my hair into a sort of loose bun
and it takes hours to dry but gets less frizzy this way,,
if i let it dry out,, its not gonna be a pretty sight hehe
Hair type: 3b some c?, fine strands, last relaxer sept 05, never again!!! current :ap length on sides,,nearly bsl in back, damn those old frazzled ends! I am hair OBSESSED

what i do is i part my hair into four sections,apply conditioner(i use a leave-in)to each,then comb each section,and i braid each section which will be 4 big braids and i let hair dry like that.You can also do that with a conditioner you rinse out:and whenever it's time for you to rinse out the conditioner take out the braids hen rinse hair.
