What is the black brush you used at 9:22 to blend your leave out?

[@natidiva247]

Tierra J Beauty what did you put on your leave out before blow drying it

[@siobahntisarah436]

Tierra J Beauty can you use sprits if you don't have moose ?

[@klam9932]

Leave out method steps: 1. Blow Dry leave out. 2. Mold down with mouse, hard bristle brush, and wrap strips. Sit under dryer until dry. 3. Flat iron with Chi Silk. Brush leave out into weave with a denman or paddle brush. 4. Freeze in place with Go2BGlued Freeze Blasting Spray.

Can I just say that THIS METHOD WORKS!!!!!! I have all my co workers thinking I have a relaxer..... a few Girls even asked me for my method.... I also like to use garner fructis sleek and shine before I flat iron #bomb #3 weeks strong

Three whole weeks? 😮 Did you use the same exact products in the video? got 2b freeze spray?

[@dorothygriffin9780]

NicNacAttack Sorry for the late response, I didn’t get a notification of your comment. To answer your question I used Tierra’s technique with the products I already had at home. Motions foam wrap, black strips, Garnier Fructis sleek and shine serum and Sebastian shaper spray. Her technique was on point but I couldn’t afford to go and buy new products at the time so I used what I had on hand.

I'm 1 year and 5 months post relaxer with two different textures due to transitioning and this worked a miracle on my hair. I used a scarf instead of the wrapping strips and used a hand dryer. Worked miracles and hair was sooooo shiny and silky straight. Only took 1 pass of the flat iron.

[@crystaljohnson4816]

whats the products yhu use to keep it down

[@stephaniecorbett6808]

I'm gonna give this a shot. Because these straight bundles + my leave out + this South Florida humidity do NOT = success. Damn humidity won't let me be great. #PrayForMe

[@tashondasmith8968]

Did it work for you? I live in florida as well and its been raining everyday so I'm scared to try this lol

[@stephaniecorbett6808]

TaShonda, it DEFINITELY worked for me. I ended up using LottaBody foaming lotion. I did end up carrying my travel flat iron with me though. You know, just in case. Lol.

[@faithxoc]

I live in Florida too which is why I'm so scared to have a leave out😭 but everyone else had great results so I might as well try it too

[@kimdryden152]

[@jermiciawiley768]

Girl Georgia the same way

[@Tatiana-cn6yj]

Thank you!! I'm in southeast GA, where it's very humid. I have 4c hair & some straight extensions in now. I could not get my leave out to stop frizzing up after a couple hours. I used this method and my leave out is LAID! I went to the closest store to me, so I just got whatever they had there. The mousse I used was by ORS since that was all they had & I used the same got 2 b glued spray. I'll update in a week to see how long it holds!😊

[@JasmineSmithim2jazzy]

Tatiana L Has it held up for you? I don't have Design Essentials but I do have ORS so hopefully it works! 😀

[@Tatiana-cn6yj]

Jasmine Smith it did! The mousse step felt a little pointless though tbh. Because I'd slick it down, just to have to pull it back up to straighten it, if that makes sense. But after you do it all, I'd wear a scarf or something to keep it down in place, that's what really made a difference versus the second time I did it and didn't wear the scarf, it didn't curl up, but it wasn't staying down like the first time.

[@JasmineSmithim2jazzy]

Thanks for letting me know! I will definitely try this and make sure to use my scarf!

[@clarisse2410]

Tatiana L How long would the leave out last before you flat iron it again ?

[@EricaBonnee]

I just wanted to come back to this video to say THANK YOU. My natural hair leave out looks like I have a fresh relaxer. I just got from under the dryer and haven't even flat ironed it yet. Your the best.

I been natural for 6 years and my leave out it will not lay right 😥 I haven't been to a salon in 8 years when I did my beautician told me to do a full sew in so my damage part will grow back 😥 now I do a full sew in using the crochet method for the invisible part and it came out amazing 😊 but I will like to try your way. Thanks for the tip. Many blessings to you 😘

[@JanetDFoster]

Thank you for this post. I sometimes have to wear extensions when I have to travel out of the country to protect my own hair until I get back to the states. This tutorial gave me life! I sometimes would do a full weave with a closure because some stylists (even on production sets) don't know what they are doing. My own hair is long and healthy and my stylist doesn't want my hair to get jacked up by hands that may not know how to do black hair properly. If I find myself with a leave out, I will try this the next time.

[@demetrialtodd15]

Your hair is beautiful! I noticed that you didn't use a net for your sew-in...just curious to why you didn't use one? Also will you do a tutorial on wand curls?

[@Hi_Tamera]

Demetria L Todd I don't use a net either. I like to be able to touch my scalp when I wash my hair

[@demetrialtodd15]

Oh ok. I understand that. I was told by a few stylists that not using the net will weigh your underneath down & possibly cause tension. The net makes my scalp itch so bad though. As much as I moisturize, my scalp still dries out quick.

3 questions! 1.What if you don’t have that certain firming mousse, do you think any mousse(it says curls on the can) will work. 2. If you don’t have the hair strips, do you think a scarf will do? 3. If you do not have the salon hair dryer, do you think a hand dryer will do? 😩 Asking because that’s what I’m working with?
