Pretty hair! I see you got that blue black.

@Poohbear,
The only products I used before I flatironing were ors creamy aloe shampoo, dc megatek for protein, one n only hydrating mask mixed w/ silk amino acids and honeyquat.. I airdried in bantu twists and applied the keracare satin press and the moroccanoil. I applied olive oil to my ends and wrapped my hair. This is the first time not using a blowdryer or a leave-in before or after my flatironing and the results left me w/ sleeker and moisturized hair.


Wait so you shampoo your hair, then put the dc megatek on (as in this product:????? http://www.eqyss.com/mega_tek2.asp), then you wash that out? and apply the one n only hyrdating mask? Than wash that out? How long do you leave the megatek on and how long do you leave the one n only hydrating mask on?
 
Harina, thank you

I left the megatek for maybe 15 min using a heating cap and used the hydrating mask for maybe 2 hours (one hour w/ heat and one hour w/o heat). I needed protein so I used the megatek and it worked out fine. My hair responds better to hydrolyzed keratin protein better than collegen or hydrolyzed animal protein. This why I hate flatironing my hair b/c all the steps I do to get my hair prepared to flatiron. It takes me 3 hours to flatiron which is a major improvement.

S/N: I always get asked if I dye my hair b/c of how black and shiny it can get. Lol

Ok, so I tried doing the pineapple thing last night, and this morning when I took my hair down it actually worked! My hair was still neat and frizz free and for once the curls weren't all weird and stretched looking like they used to get when I did the pineapple in the past.

But then last night when I had my hair up in the pineapple I was thinking, hmmm, this actually looks cute. I could wear this outside. So this morning, I put my hair back up in the pineapple, but slightly lower and I tightened up the ponytail holder a bit. And here are the results! Will probably be wearing my hair like this for the next few days.

Yesterday I tried a braidout with the flat twist headband. You can't really see the definition in the pic, but this is my first time doing a relatively neat flat twist.

I set my hair using Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie and African Royale Braid Spray on dry hair the night before with about 12 braids.

I relaxed today after an 11 month stretch. During that time I wore protective styles and flat ironed maybe once a month and dusted. My pixie is growing out nicely. I'm slowing liking my hair a little better :)

i did a braid out earlier today. results turned out ok. the kinks in the back never hold as good as the ones in the front cause they're thicker, so it always looks a bit off.
