This is my third month with this kinky curly weave. I've straightened it twice already. Here are pics of it curly after the 2nd flat iron. I'm actually considering leaving it in until next month
which will make it 4 months total (DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT RECOMMENDED). The curls look wayyyy better than they did when I first installed it, but some parts of this hair now has a slightly looser texture. I attribute the defined curls to me plopping and plunking yesterday. It really helped define the curls and eliminate ALL frizz! Yep, I DID NOT have ANY frizz.
The process
I washed my hair yesterday, and applied a heaping amount of Cantu leave in that I brushed through with my Denman. Then, I applied some IC Fantasia gel and brushed it through. Next I tied the top of my hair down with a scarf. I laid my head down on my towel, plopped my head down, and 'plunked/wrapped the towel to secure the curls. I let my hair dry like that without messing with the curls. I'm telling you guys, I was truly amazed at how it looked when I took off the towel. My SO was blown away and I haven't stopped receiving compliments about my hair. The only thing different that I did was the 'plop/plunk'. I guess with the old process my hair snagged on things and got frizzy before it dried. This is definitely a keeper!
Awkward pose, yes I know. I had to cover the huge bandaid on my knee. lol
Next morning

thanks for sharing!
My hair texture is coarse, so I'm really happy it blends well. Thanks!
