EASY Flexi Rod Tutorial For Short Natural Hair!

Hey loves!
I think I have finally graduated from having a TWA to just a regular short fro. With that I've decided to take it back to one of my absolutely favorite hair styles from when I was transitioning, the Flexi Rod set! Those of you who have been reading my blog for quite some time now know that I was hooked on using Flexi Rod's. To me, they give a nicer more realistic curl than Perm Rods, but because my hair was so short I had to hold off on doing them. But now, they're back and of course I've got a video tutorial to share. Enjoy!

You are gorgeous and so is your hair. Thanks for showing flexi rods on shorter hair. However, your lipstick stole the show! That lipstick color looks so great on you!

[@Darkchild_07]

Beautiful! Something I can aspire to do with my natural hair!

[@ednankemdi]

Wow! Aisha! I’ve watched many flexi rod tutorials and attempted it many times. I never thought to section it off, nor had i ever seen anyone section it off. That makes it so much more manageable and less intimidating. Loved this video! You’re beautiful and oh so helpful! Continue being great!

[@TheFayeFairy]

Girl, the lipstick, what is it. I need to know. It's beautiful!

[@yorelh.7417]

Your hair looks fabulous girl! My daughter was like so inspired! She's a mixed chick lol....however that lipstick. Let's talk about it..where is it from?! PS...what do you use for your curl refresher after a few days?

[@donzyriv8345]

Looks good, about how many flexi-rods do you think you use by the time you’re done?

[@kimmiepoo4382]

Beautiful results. New Subbie

[@AishaBeau]

Thank you so much!!

[@sheshe30341]

How long does it last? What is your nighttime routine? How often do u trim ur hair?

[@AishaBeau]

Hi! Usually 3-4 days, I wear a bonnet with this style at night and then refresh with oil in the morning. I trim my hair every 6 months!

[@diahnallen4462]

beautiful

[@AishaBeau]

Thank you!

[@margaretjackson7953]

Gorgeous 😉

[@mlassiterrnbsn]

Very beautiful 😍

[@AishaBeau]

thank you!

[@tiadaniels3441]

Absolutely Gorgeous.. How do you sleep on it and still have style the next day?

[@AishaBeau]

Hi! When my hair was this length, I'd sleep with a satin lined bonnet and then the next day refresh it with oil. Some frizz and flatness the next day is inevitable so I just tease it out to get back that shape.

[@KristiChukwu77]

Beautiful !!!what is your hair type?

[@PARIS8500]

With all of the twisting of the hair around the rod, particularly at the root isn't your hair tangled by the time you're ready to wash again?

[@AishaBeau]

Nope!

[@la-shaylafunderburk4896]

How do you wrap your curls up at night?

[@deedeew5151]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jacquelinejohnson189]

You JUST got a NEW subscriber! But please, can you tell me the EXACT name of each product you used?

[@teresatomasen6504]

Soooooo beautiful

[@AishaBeau]

thank youuuu!

[@latishabrooks44]

How long does it last? Do you just tie up at night and lift up in the morning?

[@AishaBeau]

Yes this usually lasts about 3 - 4 days. Since my hair was shorter, i wore a bonnet and refreshed with oil the next morning

[@coraldavis6967]

Who said that frizz was a bad thing? Africa will return so embrace that beautiful frizziness.

[@lawandacollins3823]

What side flexi rods do you use

[@PARIS8500]

2:54 By chance, are you able to provide a link for your detangling brush?

[@AishaBeau]

Yes it's a denman brush: www.denmanbrushus.com/product/d3-medium-7-row-styling-brush.html?r=1106

[@nayaraoliveira4469]

Alguém sabe o nome desse produto que da brilho em português pfv

[@PromiseChild12]

How long has it been since your big chop?

[@AishaBeau]

Ramona Stewart it’s been little over 9 months!

[@dawn-mariearmstrong9243]

How many rods did you use in total?

[@lookatmenowchop]

How long did it take to dry?

[@amsa721]

I'm currently using mielles souffle for twist outs...could this product be a good alternative instead of mousse for flexi rod styles?

[@AishaBeau]

Hi! I'm not sure, I haven't used that particular product. I think as long as it give yours curls a nice lasting hold, moisture and smoothness that comes with a rod set, it'll do the trick.

[@amsa721]

Aisha Beau thanks for replying ☺️ your YT page is everything!!!

[@nancyadams4505]

Ms. Aisha, what type of shampoo and co-wash do you use for your hair?

[@AishaBeau]

It varies, but recently I have been using the TGIN Moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. My favorite co-wash is by Mo Knows Hair!

[@nancyadams4505]

Thank you for responding so quickly... I have 4C, dry, coarse, coily, low porosity hair..been using Mielle hair products for a few months now...thinking about using something else...Thanks again.

[@tashmabailey9291]

I know this was done two years ago but how do u keep it at night

[@blackmermaid1908]

You can put the rods back in invent but my hair norms lasts 5 days with just a bonnet

[@FavorsVoice]

How do you know which size rods to use on which parts of the hair?

[@lacefrontstbmoth]

Most likely based off the length of her hair. She appears to have an asymmetrical cut.

[@worldclasstraveler3530]

My eyes may be bad but she looks like Kelis.

[@tianalove2058]

Can u try it when you blow dry your hair and then put mouse

[@AishaBeau]

Hi Tiana! Yes, I'll definitely try blow drying it down the line. I have another flexi rod video I'm working on, but I'll take your advice and add that into the pipeline. Thank you for the suggestion!

[@cynthiaclarke7150]

What’s the products you are using please

[@carmenjames7807]

Girl I must be slow. I picked your video because your method seemed simple and understandable. But then I attempted it and I COULD NOT DO THE TWIRL/SWIRL METHOD. Now I'm sad. Do I roll and twirl at the same time.

[@AishaBeau]

Aw man! So you roll it, and then twirl, then roll and twirl. If that makes sense? Make sure you have a decent amount of product on as well to hold the hair onto the rod as well!

[@jessicaelliott4328]

@@AishaBeau 🤔hmm.. I will be trying it!!

[@PARIS8500]

TWA?

[@AishaBeau]

TWA means Teenie Weenie Afro

[@trinidad8013]

Is it bad that I have GREY HAIRS????

[@AishaBeau]

Of course not! I actually love grey hair, and I have several!

[@sm2322]

I have quite a few and I am 25. Dont worry about it!

[@laurenlocd3180]

Yea

[@jessicaelliott4328]

Yea I have about 6 at this point. I am 31 though so it's going to only get worse or better, depending on how you look at it!

[@PARIS8500]

2H+ drying time is too long. Why not use mesh rollers? The drying time is cut in half.

[@AishaBeau]

I don't get the same results, I like the look of flexi rods :)

[@PARIS8500]

@@AishaBeau Are you able to comb through all those curls? How do you maintain the look?

[@jessicaelliott4328]

Also it doesn't take that long if you don't do them on freshly washed hair. You can wash then blow dry before using the flexi rods.

[@cherylclaiborne7480]

Y talked 2 much. U did say I saturated the hair until the middle of the video. U could have done better w/directions then demo…thank you
