     For 3 weeks now I stopped the "spray each
section a moment b4 i iron it method" lol of use
when i flat iron,, and i have seen an improvement in
the health of my ends,, i think that when it sizzled like
bacon frying i was creating bubble hair
becuz i sprayed so heavily that the hair was "wet
"with the silicones and i think any moisture in the
hair b4 putting a flat iron to it is very harmful,, i have
really seen less breakage and my hair is generally
looking healthier,, again im not positive that I can
attribute this to less spraying or the Pantene
conditioner i've been using for 2 weeks mixed with
my NTM,, im not totally sure but i just thought id
holler since I've used this new method of spraying all
over my hair at once and working it through for
several weeks now
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

good tip. i flat iron most of the time since my hair is weaved up and it has to blend well so what i do -i make sure that i towel dry my hair and keep it damp a little bit and then i follow up w/ the flat iron. This always work for me when im finished, i apply my finishing product.

Hey cookies!

I've been using your spray all over method too ever since the first post!  I also have noticed better results...in my case, my hair is not as heavy and greasy-feeling... that was a great tip!!!

is pretty but isnt me
