Okay so when the booking site going up? 😂 and did we get that stress spot from Joe? I’m so impressed every time you post! Keep them coming!!
Lol I’m not planning on it!! Yeeesss, we did! My mom said we all got it from her!!
Thank you so much! 🥰
You remind me of like the Cute little Sister next door 🤗 🤗. Here's a little tip. When i get a silk press or a press and curl. Wait aren't they basically kind of the same thing? 🤣 🤣. But i would roll mine at night with some satin pillow rollers i got off Amazon. They're Pink with White polka dots. They are a Lifesaver and keep me from using heat after i get a press and curl or silk press but those rollers i swear they make your curls last a month if not longer. Sometimes i would pin curl it but the rollers are my go to for longer lasting curls. STAY SAFE EVERYONE.
Thank you!!! 💕 Yes, you are so right! I ended up rolling it throughout the week to maintain it! It really does help!
@@StarringLia I just caught that part where you said you're scared of Titanium flat irons. Me too like terrified since my hair strands are breakage prone. Red by Kiss makes a Silicone flat iron that goes to 450 degrees. The Silicone plates are suppose to help protect the hair from heat damage so they say but i'll see when i get my new one.
Lol yes I did say that!! Let me know how that flat iron works for you because I would definitely try it out if it works!!
First to like and comment😍😌
Thank youuu! 💕

@@StarringLia you’re welcome! 💕
Your hair looks healthy
Thank you so much!! 💕
Where did you get your blow dryer attachment for the silver bird
I got it from my local beauty supply store! It’s a universal comb attachment! 💕
Just a question, Sis? Why do you consider your hair short? I'm thinking if you can place your strands in a ponytail/goes past your jawline, it's not all that short... 🤔. Is that a cosmetology thing like the blonde definition when the hair looks brown to me? I like your video overall; research for maintaining my daughter's hair!
Thank you for pointing that out! Prior to my second big chop, I had long hair (mid back) for most of my life. I guess I should say medium length! 💕 My hair has not been colored. The gel does appear brown but it dries clear! Thank you so much for watching!
Meu Deus, que preta linda e sorriso encantador.. amei um beijo do Rio de janeiro- Brasil
what's the name of the blow drying comb that your using? I have a silver bird and can't find a comb that fits it.
It’s an Annie universal comb attachment! 💕

Pin curl your hair after you do the bumps. It’ll last longer.
Thank you! 💕
❤❤❤❤
Titanium iron a big tip. Your hair is healthy and beautiful.
Thank you sooo much! 💕
@@StarringLia you’re welcome! 🤩
How often do you style your hair like this? Thanks
I silk press my hair at least once a year! Sometimes twice. 💕
How long did your hair last with your silk press? I live in Georgia and the humidity is CRAZY. . .💀
It lasted about a week and the humidity took it! 💕

How do you open straight lines on your own hair
I like to use a rat tail comb and it helps with practice! 💕
Are the products used optional or do you need to use it
You can exchange the products for the brands you prefer. However, you should always shampoo, condition, and use a heat protectant! 💕
Hallo dear how much do they sell that I iron
.please
Hey! It’s around $70 on Amazon 💕
I'm from NC , do you fo hair for other people. Because I am looking for a natural hairstyler
Hello 👋🏽 unfortunately, I do not. 💕
@@StarringLia ok 😞
🥰
Hey I wanted to ask a question, like I have mid back length and 4C hair but every single time I try to silk press or just straighten my hair it doesn’t shine and it doesn’t move, like it seems stiff I also try to put curls in my hair but I think I damaged my hair by doing so, so can I please get some tips on how to give it shine, body and like bounciness. Please anyone 🥺
Hey 👋🏽 do you put heavy oils on your hair before flat ironing? Also, it is helpful to shampoo several times before conditioning to remove all the buildup that can weigh the hair down. 💕
@@StarringLia yes before I use to put a lot of oils and Vaseline in. And thanks for the tips I’ll try it next time, also u just gained a new subscriber ❤️
The oils and Vaseline will cause the hair to be stiff and some oils can fry the hair when flat ironing. I hope this helps! 💕
Welcome!!! 💕🎉
How often are you able to do this on your hair without losing your natural curl pattern?
Typically, I straighten my hair once a year! I have done it twice, but I wouldn’t do it more than 2x if your hair seems to not revert completely back! 💕
@Starring Lia thanks! I recently straightened it and clipped my horrible ends (much needed) for a big interview but I didn't want to clip so much. Ad a result I'm sure I left some damaged ends and wondered if I should do it again. But I still have a few strands that didn't snap back so it's probably not so wise so soon. You mentioned clipping your hair every six months I believe...that must be with your curls still bouncing?
I clip them when I notice that they are getting bad. I do not go longer than 6 months and have even clipped my ends every 3 months depending on how often I’m manipulating my hair. I have also clipped my hair on blown out hair before too. It takes more patience and concentration though.
@Starring Lia yes, my hair is exactly like yours and in length. Prior to my natural journey years ago my hair was down to my butt so ...patience...I get it. Lol but now I have small kids so "patience " takes on a whole different form!!!! Lol thanks for the advice 😄
Noay May feel
Looks great BUT with the right products and less oil , hot comb it would really be a silk press . This is more of an older way to do it and it’s not as bouncy
This is a year ago so you’ve probably gotten more advanced
Thank you for sharing this info! I recently went to a professional to get a silk press and learned a lot of information about products. Because I was using heavy creams and oils before silk pressing, they may not have been completely out of the hair as it could take up to a month for the hair to not rely on those products for moisture. I believe that is why I had trouble with poofiness. The stylist told me that the poofiness occurs because the hair looks for moisture in the air. I will be doing a video about hair products soon based on what I have learned! 💕
@@StarringLia I totally don’t pay attention to the time frame when you did it and it’s been a year. I’m about to silk press mine today and I’m nervous. I wear fros alot
Let me know how it turns out! 💕
That ain't short....u got inches
Lol thank you! 💕
Ya going to cosmetology school ??
No, I am not! 💕
@@StarringLia That's ok..u don't to. A license doesn't make one good at their craft. N vice versa. You got it though.
Thank you! 💕
