: after shrinkage ... smoothing! is what gives the bit "shrinkée" once (slightly) smoothed ...
... History of smoothing ...
- Use a thermal protector product
- smoother temperature: 160 ° (maximum temperature that the device can reach> 205 ° C). Select a temperature below 160 °? You think that I've done! Alas, at 150 ° smoothing does absolutely not. But I never select the maximum temperature (> 205 ° C) because I do not seek in any way to get a perfect smoothing. The goal? Smooth hair slightly "Shrink" (Include "shrunken") to make mats, without additions (my favorite hairstyle).
- a single pass made on each strand
- use the straightener limited to 1 time per month
CAUTION manage shrinkage * Loved to smoother (or other heating device) has obvious risks (heat attacks the hair). And the risk for certain, would make abuse, in drawing the screed at the slightest narrowing of unfortunate hair. Imagine the damage
... For my part, I try not to be abused but it is clear that if my hair could talk they would say very definitely " you do shit bitch! . Anyway, they may very well do without. Then, of course, this procedure is not recommended. Also, I would strongly advise you to manage your shrinkage a more gently so as not to jeopardize the health of your hair. Fortunately, many others options available to you! In fact, you can, for example, stretch your hair with some hair (twists, braids ...). I will discuss more extensively in another article (When? Um ... lol ... I do not know, but it's in my looonngue list of things to do!)
Speaking of shrinkage I completely forgot to add a photo of my hair mode "wet". Bon ben I include it in another article or another I will ... we'll see the next shampoo!
Oh I forgot! The next section is a summary of all this as a before and after photos (for practical reasons, I will gather all the photos in a single article)
