During the brief time I did the baggie method, I did it in between washes. Now I only use a shower cap after I wash my hair, when my hair is still a little wet. Someone told me that that was a version of the baggie method. Water, the best moisture, IMO. ------------- http://fire.prohosting.com/p1017 - My Hair Site Copy site: http://phoenix1017.sitesled.com

I do the baggie method in between washes. It really doesnt matter when you do it, its just a matter of personal preference. ------------- *Transitioned Successfully (7-20-05~7-20-07) *100 Natural~3c/4a *Hair Goal: WSL *stretched/straighten* '08 |

Basically it is method of protecting the ends. Basically you put your hair in a ponytail, either after you shampooed your hair or a day after, saturate it with water/liquid leave-in conditioner. Then you seal the ends with some Vaseline or some grease. Make your hair into a bun. Then you take a sandwish baggie (the old fashion one) and place it over the bun then fasten it and then twist it into a secure bun/knot. Then grab a phony pony and viola, a baggie method.

It depends, but its best to leave your hair in the baggie for a couple of hours so that your hair can benefit from it. Also its important to redo the baggie atleast every other day so your hair wont dry out. I baggie overnight. ------------- *Transitioned Successfully (7-20-05~7-20-07) *100 Natural~3c/4a *Hair Goal: WSL *stretched/straighten* '08 |

So I can combine the ponytail method and the baggie technique?!? I am thinking when I'm not in the mood for wigs as a protective style, I'll wear my phony pony and a baggie. ------------- Natural since March 2006 No "heat" challenge for Winter 08-09 public.fotki.com/Vanity3 keepitsimplesista.ning.com/profile/Vanity1920 |
