Straightening My Natural Hair | Curly To Straight Hair Routine For No Heat Damage Ft Curls Queen

Made it well what's good double sinking. Is your griddle see back on the team with another youtube video guys today and today we're taking this hair and i'm straightening it? So, let's get straight into my wash day routine for when i'm straightening my natural hair? Well, i will be adding tapens to my hair right now. My hair has been washed yesterday and i did a wash and go, but i decided i wanted to straighten my natural hair. So let's do it so first things: first, i'm starting off with a protein treatment. Since i am straightening my natural hair for the first time in a very long time, my protein treatments consist of one egg, some mayonnaise and some conditioner right here. You see me pumping a few pumps of conditioner into the protein treatment. You can really just do egg and mayonnaise, but i like to add conditioner just to balance out the protein just so my hair doesn't get protein overload, which i have experienced before. If you don't know what protein overload is it just kind of makes your hair really hard and rough after the protein treatment? So that's why i'd like to add some conditioner just so i can have some type of moisture while applying my protein treatment here. You guys see me applying the protein treatment to my kind of dirty but kind of freshly washed hair, because i washed my hair the day before this and did a wash and go so. I guess my hair is like considered dirty since i did apply different types of products, but i'm just running this protein treatment through all different sections of my hair, making sure i do get every piece of hair i like to always do a protein treatment before straightening. My hair, just so my hair follicles, are strong and i avoid getting any heat damage now that my hair is fully coated. I'M going to leave this protein treatment in for 20 minutes. Here is my curls fresh out the shower after shampooing and conditioning and deep conditioning my hair, my curls look absolutely beautiful, even better from like the last natural hair video i did. That y'all saw, i feel, like my curls, always look better when i'm bout to straighten my hair, which is so weird. So here you see me applying some bio silk heat protectant to my hair, because i'm about to get ready to blow dry. My hair and i want to make sure that my hair is protected from any type of heat damage. You know you got to protect them. Curls from that heat damage babes period, we don't want any heat damage, so i'm praying when i wash my hair. My curls are still intact, but my hair looks so good, so i'm just going to section off my hair and get ready to blow dry, my hair on high heat using the nozzle and the denman brush to get my hair as straight as possible. You want to get your hair as straight as possible in the blow drying process before straightening your hair. So when you straighten your hair, it can come out as straight as possible. Here'S my hair freshly blow dried as straight as it can get. I did try my best to get my hair really straight. My hair definitely did get longer and much thicker, because at one point i felt like my hair just wasn't growing. I felt like my growth was stunted, but ever since i've been doing you know, lace, fronts and wearing cornrows for three plus months, it works. For me, a lot of you guys are like don't leave your cornrows in for that long because you can suffer from breakage. But honestly i don't know you tell me. Do my hair look broken to you yeah? No, so here i'm just straightening, my hair. If you guys are wondering where my flat iron from this is not sponsored, but it is a baby bliss nano titanium, straightener one inch, i think that's the name of it. You can find it on amazon for about a hundred dollars. I'Ve had this flat iron literally since i was like 15 years old, and it's been with me ever since so just a little fun fact about that flower. So i'm just doing one pass on every single strand of hair. I'Ll do two passes if necessary like right. There two passes was necessary, so i'm just going to continue to straighten my hair all around and then we're going to get ready to add in the tape ends. So so now. This is my first time installing tape in so while i was installing my tape ins, i was looking at a youtube tutorial. This is like my second time installing tape ins. If you guys watched the last video where i straightened my natural hair, i as well added tape ins into my hair, but these tape ins are from curls queens hair. Thank you to curls queen's hair for sponsoring today's video right now you see me sectioning off one piece of hair, because that was one section of hair, because that was advised in the tutorial that i was watching and i've installed tape is before so like. I knew how to do it, but the first time i did it. My head was in pain and i was like you know. I want these to last and i want to be able to wear them, for you know at least a week. So let me watch this tutorial on how to properly do it. So you see me sectioning off the first hair, where i'm gon na apply the tape ins to my scalp, but not really my scalp, i'm gon na put it like an inch below my scalp. If that makes sense, i'll drop this tutorial that i watch in case you guys are wondering check the description box here is the first piece of tape and that i'm about to go in with well. This is the second piece, because i did the first piece. I'M flipping the first piece over right now and now i'm about to sandwich the second piece together and it was pretty easy for me to not be looking or have any help or like not being able to see behind my head. It did come out very neat and you know they're very lightweight, as you guys can see. I placed the first one right there and now i'm gon na do two more in that row. I did about three tape ins in each row and then i ended up like double wefting them just so it can be thicker as well. So look: look how easy that straightens, like curls queen, definitely has some good tape ins, not to mention the hair smelled super good when it arrived like. I don't know why, but the hair just smells so good and i'm just placing these tape ins. As best as i can like i said i don't have no mirror behind me. I can't see what i'm doing so, i'm really just feeling and hoping for the best and winging it as i do with most things that i do so make sure you guys check the description box out for curls queen hair. They do have some awesome tape. Ins. I want to thank them so much for sending me these tape ins, because, honestly, i'm in love with tape, ins now and i feel like i want to do them more often versus wearing lace fronts. They'Re super easy super lightweight and is an easy diy project to do at home. Now you can get your tape in installed professionally, which costs about like 500 to 300 to 500 dollars, but babies. You can do it at home for free. It'S super easy. The tape ins are lightweight, it's definitely better than a sew-in, because once you're ready to take it out, you can literally just soak your hair in some oil and the tape ins will slip right out here. You see me getting ready to sandwich the next piece of tape in now when it gets colder. I feel like i want to do tape ins a little more often since it is summertime. My hair, you know, tends to curl up and stuff like that. So i know i probably have some issues with humidity, but besides that, i feel like tape is definitely something that i want to do in the wintertime. Very often i just love how natural it looks, and it's just so effortless and it's so beautiful, like my hair, blended perfectly with the tape ends like i got. People asking me is this: your natural hair, like yeah babes, it's giving it's my hair period. Look at the hair quality, look how like one pass and the hair is straight. This is body wave, hair and the length they did send me is 20 inches. Like i said, i will have curl queen's hair in the information box down below make sure you guys open that up and check them out. Thank you to crows queen's hair for sponsoring today's video and make sure you guys keep watching. So you guys can see the end results of how beautiful and seamless these tapings came out. My as you guys can see my hair is already beginning to blend in with the tape ends. My hair is already looking thicker fuller. These tape ins definitely did add a lot of volume to my hair. So now i'm going in with the front section. Of course the front section is the easiest, because you can actually see so for the front section. I didn't sandwich the pieces together. I just placed like one track right, um below my scalp. Whatever here is me doing the other side. Now i'm just gon na place. You know i'm starting to feel myself, see me yeah. Clearly, i'm feeling myself but yeah, i'm just gon na place one right like an inch below my scalp and i just had to do a middle part. But i feel like i kind of want to do a side part, because i'm looking at this back and i'm like the side part was actually really cute. I'M always doing middle parts, but here is the full completed. Look here is me trying to put it in a ponytail. These are amazing, like i can put my hair in a ponytail, i can do buns. I can do any type of style i want to here.
