If I use heat and I rarely do with this texture, I use a tiny amount of heat protecting serum only once.  I use sponge rollers in the shower with the steam to make curls or hot rollers.  Once they are set, I pin curl them at night with bobby pins.  I am not a fan of heat on any kind of hair.  Try to avoid brushing altogether and use a wide tooth comb.HTH.

Sierra35,
 
Less is more.  All I use is SM conditioner in the microwave and a dime sized amount of SM leave in.  That's it!  Remember, it' s not AA hair, so if you put products in it you will have lots of tangles.

I have had my yaki unit from Holly for about 3 ½ months now and I haven’t experienced any tangling.

I recently got a Chinese light yaki from Holly and I love it. The texture is great and it doesn't tangle.

I had removed it to wash and set it, but I put it back on so you can see how pretty the texture is. It tangles a little in the back where she cut in long layers, and she put hairspray on the brush because I wouldn't let her spray my whole head. After Saturday, it started getting tangled back there. Isn't it pretty though?
It's not applied, it's just sitting on top of my head like a hat.    [IMG]smileys/smiley36.gif" align="middle" />

Ya, I have a Jacksun (3 months old) with no tangling and I have a Jiery (6 months old) that I wore for 4 months straight (my first unit) and I've had no tangling at all.

I just got really pretty Chinese Remy Light Yaki from Holly last week. When I went to get it layered on Saturday, the stylist couldn't get over how gorgeous it was. It does seem to tangle just a little, though. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

I totally agree, that's why it is so frustrating that most vendors do not carry chinese light yaki stock units. I have had to order customs for all my chinese light yaki units. It is rare to see one on a stock list.
Rex has a 20" #2 natural on his stock list now.

Thank you all ladies. I don't think my appl is good enough on these pics. I have appl yesterday and now is the first time that there is not much babyhair that get stuck in the glue. But i am practice and it will be better.
@ Heaven lei. I order this one from yiweidu. In the begin (the first day) a lot of hair came out. But that was one time.  De density is medium and it can take some shedding because there is a lot of hair.
