Happy to say that from watching your video, I'm on the right track when it comes to molding my hair😆. The only thing that's different is that I use a mesh net which wraps around the perimeter of my head and I use ORS foam wrap 👍. I gave a little length in the front of my pixie which is sometimes a tiny bit damp when I leave the dryer so I just let that dry overnight under my silk scarf. Thanks so much for sharing your technique💋
