SALON VISIT | First Silk Press + CUTTING My Damaged Hair VLOG

[@brianna12067]

The thing she used for your edges is the tymo, it’s a electric hot comb but gentler. You can buy from Amazon, it’s really nice.

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Thank you! Had no idea what it was!

[@nyemanuel]

Kudos to you for acknowledging what needed to go and not hesitating to ✂️. When an influencer chooses to keep damaged hair for length over the health of hair.... I just keep scrolling, like you can’t teach me ah thang! The end result was beautiful... cheers to your reset!

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Yes! Health over length! Thanks doll!

[@SJP43]

The results are great! I looked up their prices and 160$ starting price for a blow dry & trim on less than shoulder length hair is astronomical. I’m looking for a salon I’d be able to continue to visit for hair maintenance and it’s too expensive for me on a continuous basis.

[@TheRebellefleur27]

please let me know if you find someone.

[@patriciainman1581]

the health of your hair is important then lenght it will grow

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Exactly!

[@shamel3875]

After watching your VLOG I booked an appointment with Leena and I absolutely loooooove my hair. I’ve been so afraid over the years to trust anyone with my natural hair but I’m so glad I went. Thanks for sharing!

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Yay! I’m so glad you enjoyed the salon & Leenas work as much as I did!!! I’m legit hype that you went to see her lol!

[@khristinacassanova6223]

Love Citryne’s salon! Been going to her for years and truly best of the best with treating natural hair in my opinion. Her entire team is great and so kind.

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Yesss! They’re great!!!

[@jazmynesimon7746]

I just got a silk press too for the first time in two years. Finally at waist length hopefully next time I’ll be at tailbone then I’ll chop it all off cuz dis tew much work😂

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Lmaoo facts! Grow it, realize it’s too much, cut it & repeat 😭

[@Jazzerbean]

She did such an amazing job. I was eager to find a KZbinr who received great service at a hair salon in NYC (I live in NYC). Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I'm excited to see what your hair looks like when you go back to rocking your curls and kinks.

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Thanks doll! I loved my experience & can’t wait to have my curls out!

[@AJYisrael]

those curls were stunning! I love wavy curls like that it adds a layer of sexiness to the style!

[@allofmimi6929]

This was sooo pleasing to watch lol I miss being in someone’s chair while they’re massaging my scalp 😌... flawless 😍😍😍

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Don’t we all love oddly satisfying videos lol! Thanks for watching doll!

[@allofmimi6929]

@@CoolCalmCurly of course girl !! 💕💕

[@ItsHannahMarieC]

She did an amazing job! I was trimming my hair while I watched your video. Can't wait to see how your curls look once you go back to curly!

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Nice! Thanks doll I can’t wait to do a permrod set & twistout!

[@makinia]

The stylist is so gentle! Love the finished look!

[@CoolCalmCurly]

I just posted a pic on my IG and I literally said the same thing! She was super gentle!

[@curlynella1011]

She did a great job. I would go to her and I don’t trust anyone to do my hair😁

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Facts! Ion trust nobody but Leena has my permission from now on😭

[@iamjayatucker]

your before wasnt that bad! you can definitely tell that you take great care of your hair! loves this.

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Thanks doll I appreciate it!

[@prissNcurlss]

😍😍😍 I’ve been waiting to see this experience. She slayed your hair and was clearly impressed with its length and overall health. She just kept playing in it-I don’t blame her 😂

[@CoolCalmCurly]

I know! I was on it, I knew I couldn’t take too long giving y’all this vlog! Lol she could of played all day😭 I love the way it came out!

[@felicialally5703]

I love how gently she blow dried your hair. Most silk press videos stress me out at the blow dry stage.

[@iProvoke-u]

Black women loves your hair, it's pretty than you can ever imagine

[@NICOLEJANAESVOICE]

It’s the bounce for me! 😍

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Period!!

[@gabriellagrafakos5521]

My shirrrttttt 😍🥰💜 I need a trim too! I cut my own hair in the summer and today while braiding it I realized it’s uneven 🙃

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Yessss!! Oh no, I’ve been there before just get it professionally touched up girl

[@princess.smith19]

Can we please get a skin care routine 🥺😩😍😍😍😍😍

[@CoolCalmCurly]

I’m literally editing it rn😭 droppin in a few!!

[@ladyandrews9371]

Sis you look amazing I do not trust a single soul to trim my mane but it’s refreshing to see great stylist working with clients to achieve a simple goal 🥰

[@DarlingNikki2]

She did a very nice modified U shape cut on you and I like those cuts the most because it allows for enough length retention where the cut isn't jarring. I can see where another stylist might have done a blunt cut straight across above all of the damage, but I don't like blunt cuts and it irritates me to see them lol.

[@CoolCalmCurly]

I love the cut and I’m excited to see how the shape looks curly! Lol really?? The blunt cuts be oddly satisfying for me😂

[@Gainey1908]

That hair is gorgeous!! And that bounce at the end 🙌🏾

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Thanks doll! Yess I was here for the bounce

[@marciadeal5570]

It came out fabulous. I would be interested in seeing a video on what you think caused the damage and what you may do different going forward to prevent it from happening again.

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Say less! Gonna record that asap & upload it this week!

[@shawnetteamarie]

Okay, it is gorgeous Doll!!! You 'bout to make me grow my hair back out🤗

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Do it!☺️ thanks doll!

[@Khabirah90]

Thank you for sharing this video. It's very rare that I see someone post content about a salon visit near zone 7a. I truly appreciate it.

[@CoolCalmCurly]

No problem! I’m glad the video helped!

[@jdavis8631]

First off, you have gorgeous hair. Second, Lena did her thing. Lastly, you look great with it straight or curly. Rock it!

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Thank you , thank you & thank you doll 😭💙

[@prissNcurlss]

11:05 yesss!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I know that took a lot to say. But your hair is going to flourish so much bc you decided to let it go. I sent you that DM on IG-wish I would’ve let mine go last year. But I’ll bounce back 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Yea I was scared but it was much needed and now I can focus on retaining the health of my hair! & your trim came out so good! We’ve all waited a lil too long to trim😅

[@ldunn2]

Doll, was it just the lack of trims that caused the thinning ends or were there any other tips we should keep in mind? So glad you're back! 😍

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Lack of trims was the main issue but there’s several others that I will talk about in the next vid!

[@prettyangel0921]

I wanted to ask this too. I was recently hit with having to take 5 inches off. I thought I was doing everything right. I wondered if me not trimming was the culprit cuz the hair grew. The ends were just thin.

[@feliciadunn644]

That stylist did an amazing job on your hair! She didn’t wack it off and then curl your hair.

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Yes I’m so happy with her work she didn’t cut too much at all!

[@TheLovelyShally]

I miss silk press !!!! I’ve big chopped three times now because of them they always leave my curls damaged and never last more than a day for me :( this is so beautiful !!!!!!

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Oh no! This definitely isn’t something I’d do too often, I’m about to go back to straightening once a year

[@spicytruth8721]

SHE ATE!!!!

[@AmiaRenee]

I'm so glad you decided to go to a hairstylist because she did you right, she did an amazing job 🔥👏🏾👏🏾 Beautiful hair 💕

[@CoolCalmCurly]

She definitely did! Thanks doll!!💙

[@tanyaanderson8128]

Oh yea, she hooked your hair up!! It looks beautiful! And that shine!!!! Im curious what products were used? Shampoo, conditioner, heat protectant?

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Thanks doll! I know they use Jane Carter products, I believe she used the citrus eden bodyworks leave in spray & chi heat protectant.

[@tanyaanderson8128]

@@CoolCalmCurly 😃😃 thank you!!

[@ADayWithShay]

how often do you plan to get it professionally trimmed now?? i just filmed and uploaded my silk press and we are in the same boat lol. my ends hadnt been professionally trimmed in 2 years bc i dont use heat but im thinking i should go every few months now but i also dont wanna get heat damage. helppppppp!

[@CoolCalmCurly]

I’ll be getting my hair trimmed every 10-12 weeks from now on. You don’t have to get a silk press every time you trim. You can do it on blown out hair or it can be cut wet (but be careful with curly cuts)

[@12JPHIL]

Wow!!!! She did an amazing job! Did you find out what that device was called that she used on your edges?? 👀

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Thanks doll! Someone in the comments said what it was!💙

[@leshea4everpraying134]

It’s called a TYMO you can get it from Amazon.

[@LamiAtZenith]

She got you all the way right!

All the wayyy

[@CallMeTink]

HEY LOVELY 💛⭐🎉 YOUR HAIR IS FREAKIN BEAUTIFUL..SHE DID A GREAT JOB

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Thank youuu !💙

[@Tameekarose]

Do you need to get a trim if your hair is shedding a lot? When I had relaxed hair that applied to it. Once I had a trim it would stop

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Trimming can help with shedding especially if some of the shedding is from bad ends pulling on each other and breaking when you comb it

[@inanewyorkminutechannel]

Your hair looks beautiful. Im feeling a little nervous about returning to the salon during Covid-19. Were they following Covid safety protocols during your visit?

[@sabrinae.6361]

Thanks for putting the salon info! It’s much appreciated... I need a new stylist for silk presses. I’ll def check her out ❤️

[@earlmoss9669]

Wow your hair is gorgeous

[@jodimontoute]

Your hair is not damaged. Hair grows unevenly. Hair cuts and trims make the hair appear fuller.

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Hair can grow unevenly but Split ends, breakage & heat damage are damage.

Your hair came out absolutely beautiful!!!!!!! But the price for a wash and set, furthermore a silk press ...........🥴🥴🥴 imma keep doing it myself and save my $150-$180. No ma’am 🚫🙅🏽‍♀️ Also, did she charge you extra for the length of your hair?

[@CoolCalmCurly]

Sis I hear you! I haven’t been to a salon in years so idk when prices got so damn high! when I started researching, I didn’t find a single salon that did silk press & trims for any less than $125-$150🙃. She didn’t charge extra for my length but I did pay extra for the cut because the amount she cut off was considered more than a trim
