Another question....  I have relaxed hair and I know that it is not good to apply heat to the hair. I co-wash twice a week and deep condition also. I want to air dry my hair without using any heat whatsoever. How can I do this? I want my hair to be straight and I wanted to know can I apply shea butter to my ends instead of WGO? I read somewhere that I have to flatten my hair as much as possible and pin it in the back. I need some really precise instructions because I have no idea what I am doing. I usually let it air dry and then use a flat iron to straighten. What products do I use in order to have my hair dry straight and what do I put on the ends? Thanks!!

I had a problem with air drying my hair too it would come out frizzy. Now I apply the Cantu shea butter and wrap my hair and it comes out great! I have a question for you now. What does co wash and pre poo means? I have seen it a lot on the board. |

Co wash is Conditioner Wash. It means you wash your hair with just
conditioner. Pre poo means pre shampoo. It's any treatment you do
before you shampoo. For example yesterday I pre pooed with olive oil
for a couple of hours before I washed my hair. I didn't shampoo though.
