To all people who are looking for long-lasting silk press, it is best to begin by thoroughly shampooing and conditioning your hair with salon professional products. Most shampoos and conditioners that are found at Walmart or Target have sulfates, parabens and silicones inside of it. Based on your hair type, it is best to use a deep conditioner to thoroughly hydrate your hair. Implementing heat with the deep conditioner will allow it to penetrate into the hair. Next, it is best to towel dry the hair and section it into four quadrants. Generously spray the Color Wow Extra Strength product onto each section of hair. The error that this KZbinr made was using a hand-held blowdryer. Since she did not take one inch sections of the hair and use tension, the hair had a puffy appearance in the end. It is best to use a boar bristle brush and a blowdryer with a nozzle to get your hair semi-straight. Next, you should use a salon professional flat iron with ceramic plates which will not burn the hair. While flat ironing textured hair, specifically, it is best to use the chase method with a heat resistant comb to ensure that the hair is straight from roots to ends. Lastly, it is strongly recommending not to use anything else with the Color Wow Extra Strength product. Any other product will compromise the finished look.

OOOh! Thanks for the tips!

[@brooklynh.1827]

thank you!

[@GeniaBGolden]

THANK YOU!

[@Blessed-jz7fh]

What is the name of the products that you suggest, to use?

[@MelissaKimm]

Would love a demo! Do you have a page we could visit?

[@mianlee7382]

To go through the straightening process and have the courage to literally test the waters feels like an act of bravery. 🤣

[@Academiacaramelcurlz]

They need to start formulating and designing hair products like this for 4c hair FIRST! Because we know if it works on the kinkiest curliest hair types, then it’ll work on all black hair. And then formulate from there for other hair types!

[@tlock77]

AND we contribute the most coin! 😬 😆

[@Academiacaramelcurlz]

@@tlock77 that too!!

[@umrilifenChrist]

FACTS!!!!

[@rabbit3212010]

That's stupid. If it works on 4c it does not make suitable for every hair type. You're delusional.

[@rabbit3212010]

​@@tlock77how do figure that out?

[@ornettej3485]

Thank you for your sacrifice in giving us a true review. You’re a real one.

[@Mrs_Bonnee]

Do you think the sticky residue is because of how much product was used?

[@essencecollins7034]

I was thinking the same thing. It’s “extra strength “ so I don’t think you would need so much

[@OctaviaSparks]

Totally used a lot of product. Ijs

[@GigglesnGaggie]

Yep

[@NicoleIvory]

We appreciate you keeping it real with us and trying this out. I don’t think I’d get the extra strength just because it’s not that different and has all those white flakes. I’ll keep using the regular one!… also we definitely would love a wear test lol

[@taraco3371]

I didn’t get any white flakes so I wonder what it is

[@nikkimcmahan7935]

Silk anything in this Austin heat is a level of commitment that is unmatched.

[@kaylaEA_]

Right, braids all summer. Not even playing with myself.

[@IamParalegal]

Shoot. After Texas Summer heat comes Texas Fall rain!

[@Oletechiegirl]

😂😂😂😂 wow, y’all ain’t playing in Texas. I live in GA and I go curly natural all summer….it is a waste of time to straighten….but imma try this before the winter is done and see.

[@Seen_not_heard]

We experienced Austin Heat in June and July, in New York. Please. Take it back. It was so hot this summer I didn’t go out much this summer. It was miserably humid this summer.

[@kimdean1079]

So glad you made that comment. I thought I was doing something wrong. I'm in Dallas and I don't believe there is anything in the world that can defy this humidity.

[@samslayerr]

Amika anti-humidity spray works for me and it smells good I just apply after straightening 😊

[@queena1620]

I've never clicked on a video as fast as I did just now😂😂

[@CurlieCrys]

Love to hear it!!😂

[@anaspringett7255]

I knoooow, I've been waiting for this 😅

[@stefanywashington3994]

Me ! My hair is a soft half curly afro by the time I walk outside. 😂

[@kimberlyvereen6607]

Saaaaaaaame!!! Like, ok what it do for the brown gurlz?

[@queentahlia9492]

Yea sis…the REAL test is how your hair holds up outside in that heat for a full day!

[@suzannaholmes1786]

Important to use tension while blow-drying, and to put the product in towel dry hair in sections. Don't use on dry hair, use schampoo and conditioner and towel dry, use tension. Works wonders on my super dry brittle hair.

[@aprophete]

Don’t get either. SAVE YOUR COINS.. went through a whole bottle and each time “I said maybe this time it’ll work “ If your hair is already regularly straightened then maybe but if your hair doesn’t last long when straightened normally this will not make a difference.

[@cariecopes3932]

Do you not do the comb chase method when you flat iron? It’s life changing

For you to have humidity directly on it, I think the product worked well

[@Kenkyycoils2012]

I so appreciate your demo. I’m a recently converted strait natural and cut my hair in a blunt bob in the middle of NC summer 🙃 I’m not sure what I was thinking lol. But honestly pair this product with all the other measures we take to protect our hair from moisture I think it’s a good investment.

[@tyrasheppard7086]

Awww Mannn!!! I had high hopes for this. This menopause (hot flashes) kickin' my behind. I might have to go back to the creamy crack!

[@farquiefarquie9021]

The other one is just the same. Thanks so much for your honesty. What is needed is a touch of whatever chi does to the hair to make it silky soft. That balance slip. You're right the original I will continue with that. ❤

[@asinc2110]

Thank you sooo much, bcuz I was on the verge of buying this product but my spirit stopped me doing so, and watching your demonstration makes me think my spirit was right in deterring me. I love what you said at the end about the Chris fella doing your hair😃

[@brandysnell8107]

Humm...I wonder if when you finished blow drying or after flat ironing, hitting your hair with a cold shot from the blow dryer to close the cuticle back up would have helped it.

[@FineNaturalHairandFaith]

This is a good idea

[@tlock77]

Yeah, worth a try even with the original one, just to help it out even more maybe.

[@LoveLeeHustles]

When you pulled that steamer out I screamed LOL!!!😂

[@Karim_3652]

You could do Wear test on both WOW coast side by side it would be awesome to see if there is any difference. I’m just about to order one but now not sure if worth it as normal one is in better price

[@kudzaiche]

Oooh the next instalment of this series lol. Needed this. Have you tried the Dream Coat “For Curly Hair”? That’s the one I thought you were trying for a sec

[@FineNaturalHairandFaith]

I was supposed to bring my son to Morgan’s Wonderland in Austin. My hair she ain’t prepared lol I just watched your video on this last year and I have the original formula on its way to me. So I have fine hair. Do you think the original formula is sufficient for me? It sounds like you may be using too much product. I’d love to see you redo it in the future using less product and seeing how your hair feels, if it stays straight for long etc

[@qlovewilliams2208]

I used it on my daughter hair she has the same hair texture as yours, it did feel stiff after blow drying and is had the white stuff in my blow dry comb,her hair did frizz up the next day but not as much as it would have without the product. I will try it again but next time with a round brush an she how it works.

[@yaniquewilson8362]

Girl your always keeping it real love you from Jamaica 😊❤

[@Jazzy869]

They designed a product for coily hair that can only protect up to 380 degrees. Sounds like they need some diversity in the development meetings… also I think the sticky residue and hard/stiff feeling of your hair was from using waaaaaay too much product.

[@TeesWorldxo]

I appreciate the honesty!! I have extremely frizzy hair and I need some relief 😭

[@Theelitebeautylounge]

How well did your curls bounce back after it was washed?

[@mua_anuradharaman]

Hey Crystal love your videos ! 🌸✨ ❤. I’m a professional hair stylist , just saw this vid when I was looking for a review for the Extra strength . I think the residue was probably because of using too much of product ( almost similar to pilling of the products on skin ) . Maybe lesser should help . Are you still using this on a regular basis , would love to know your thoughts after using it for a while . I have the Dream coat and love it for myself and clients .

[@sakeina76]

I use the regular WOW on wet hair, put John Frieda Frizz Ease on then blow dry it…

[@michiahnaylor7476]

Last time you used the olaplex 9 and turn the heat up on the flat iron as well. I know you weren't supposed to but maybe that's why it seemed to work so much better last time.

[@ivymerritt7577]

I don't see much difference between the two products. But you do have a great looking flatiron! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@jwlz2021]

I wanna try this again. It left my hair so sticky . I use to use the hair alchemist sleek spry and it was so good. But it was discontinued 😢 I was hoping this would replace it for me but I’m so confused on the stinky residue

[@sheilamiller1064]

Your hair is so gorgeous!😊 it looks like my thickness and a quick note if you get a good trim for the thin end it'll have your hair look a whole lot thicker. My hair Journey this year as I navigate from relaxed to Natural is health over length.

[@Mahy4]

I can’t wait for the day my hair is this long

[@BUTTERNUT618]

I loved the honest review! Question where did you buy the blow dryer, I would like to check it out.

Same my hair was frizzy so quickly after using it.

[@marlamcgrady2023]

@CurlieCrys I am so glad you did this video. I had the exact same issues. I love Color Wow Dream Coat and was so excited after seeing everyone say the Extra Strength was everything! It is not! It is horrible! My hair was hard and crunchy and sticky and had the same sticky goop in my Dyson Blow Dryer on my neck and face I had to rewash my hair and use the original Dream Coat. I am truly disappointed because I wanted to love this product because my hair reverts back so quickly and I was hoping finally a product for my hair! Not! And I bought 4 of them! Ugh! I literally thought my hair was going to snap and break off it was like hard sticky straw. Not for us!!! Epic failure! Sorry Color Wow! I will still use the original Dream Coat it works very well in my hair. Again thanks for sharing. Everyone is either lying or got paid!!! Ijs 😂

[@cindychristian1700]

Does the original dreamcoat work on 4c hair?

[@marlamcgrady2023]

@@cindychristian1700 yes it works on my hair and I have horrible hair that literally reverts back by the time I dry the other side lol I have to make sure I spray it all over my head while I’m in the shower and I spray it again in each section when I blow dry it and it blow drys straight with the Dyson blow dryer with the comb attachment

Yes same for me!! I only use the original Dream Coat for that reason and always use Chi Silk Infusion after blow drying and before I flat iron.

Actually, I don't see the frizz from the steamer. 😕😕😕

[@kainatmikael9761]

I tried this and my hairs become so rough they don’t feel soft at all and the result is not same as they show

[@destinyjoy22]

Maybe you used too much product and that’s why your blow dryer had all the product in it. Either way I don’t think it’s worth it. I have a bottle of it and I don’t think it makes any difference in my hair. Thank you for the fun review😇

[@Oletechiegirl]

In the summer my hair starts to frizz up WHILE I AM FLAT IRONING THAT MOTHA….so disrespectful. I blow dry beautifully, very straight when I am done, but I have to snatch each quadrant up in pigtails immediately upon completion just to keep it from any suggestion of moisture., but when I take each quadrant down to flat iron, BOING - it frizzes so my hair does not get straightened until it is in sub-zero temperature…. 30 degrees and below.

[@tlock77]

😂 With the water droplets are you really THAT impressed for a _2nd_ time? You're always interesting to watch. 😄 Thanks for the honest review.

​@CurlieCrys I'm in SATX...I stay in until 845p!👍🏽

[@prissNcurlss]

Hmmmm, I think it performed well. I have a similar facial steamer and I know a silk press w/o that product would have frizzed in a split second. Bc you held it close to your hair for some time and it just puffed up-I think it performed very well. Now bc your hair felt dry and that sticky residue is why I’d give it a no.

[@thetotaltiffany]

I think you used way too much product is the problem

[@FineNaturalHairandFaith]

Oh I also think yes there was a little frizz toward the ends with the steamer BUT it’s still pretty darn good

[@carlagant8009]

I appreciate you keeping it real. I have used the regular color wow for blow dry and the curly. The straight is a no go for me. By the time I finished blow drying my hair the other side poofed up. The curly is definitely better for my coily hair.

[@Saditty]

If this product can stand up to this Tennessee heat I’m sold😆 I swear the whole south feels like it's baking

[@innocentcoco]

Yes, one side definitely did get frizzy. By day 2, my hair at that point would start reverting so I would do a ponytail until I wash my hair again.

[@youtubeisgodsblessing]

Gurl bye. If only! If that’s all humidity did to my silk press, I’ll take it! Chaaii, the way you talking lemme run 🏃‍♀️ to the original video from a year ago to see your results… before I purchase. Cause the way this humidity is winning in the fight and got my transitioning hair looking busted 👀 🤔 *give me that frizz proof today & quit playing*

I don't think it's for our hair type to be honest. When you showed us all that white sticky residue in your dryer brush, I knew then it's not for us. You saved me from wasting my money. Thanks for the review.

[@anaspringett7255]

Honestly, im sold. You put a full on steamer right up to your hair for a minute and all you got was a bit of frizz, barely noticeable frizz. Now, imagine a that steam split up into a week. I think it will hold up just fine. Try doing a video where you use it for a week and show how your style holds up, im thinking that'd be more accurate because this video, imo, is showing me that this Extra Strength one isn't that bad 🤷

[@CocoChanelle-1]

Love that you put it to the Real steam test. Science honey!

[@Abathingwolf]

I think you would get better results of you use Babybliss blow dryer / Flat irons . Chi Products are not for our kind girl 😂

[@stacydel6445]

I appreciate your attempt with COLORWOW DREAMCOAT EXTRA STRENGTH but your blow drying process didn't set the tone for a proper flat ironing of the hair. The blowdrying didn't have enough tension to remove as much texture as possible before straigthening. I have already decided to stick with the original COLORWOW because the technique will always give u a really good silk press in the end.

[@rondothard1698]

black women have been looking for the perfect product for over 60 years that keeps the hair from reverting and black women still don't have it. Nothing seems to work like we think it should.
