In this video I share with you how I blow dry and flat iron my relaxed hair. I flat iron my hair once every 3-4 months. I always do 1-2 “passes” through my new growth and 1 “pass” through my hair so that my hair maintains fullness and volume.

I decided to do a simple twist-out on dry hair with a few of my favourite products :). I'm quite pleased with the results as it was so spontaneous with little product usage. Below is a description of how I achieved this simple look.
Step #1:
On dry hair, I moisturized with Scurl No Drip Activator and sealed with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I focused on my ends ensuring they were thoroughly moisturized. I then parted my hair in 5 sections (2 at the sides, 3 in the middle like a mohawk). I twisted each section making sure each twist was tight and secure. I grabbed 5 perm rods and rolled them at the ends of my hair for curl definition. I tied my hair with a satin scarf and bonnet and went to bed.
Step #2:
In the morning I removed all the 5 perm rods and proceeded to unravel each twist with a tad-bit of Extra Virgin Olive Oil on my finger tips to prevent frizz.
Step #3:
I separated each twist for fullness and lightly combed my fingers through my hair to "remove" the parts I made for the 5 sections. I kept my side part and lightly fluffed the hair in front for added volume.
That's it!
Are you a twist-out fan? Which products do you use to achieve your look?
I had a couple requests to explain how I do my Flexi Rod set. Below is a mini picture tutorial as to how I do them. Hope this helps :)
Step 1: Moisturize and seal with SCurl No Drip Activator and Wild Growth Oil. (Optional, use foam lotion for longer lasting curls)
Step 2: Section off the hair in two (back and front). Get 2 Flexi Rods.
