  • This is how we blow-dry hair in the village, with only a peace of a broken pot, fire and a peace of cloth. Watch how it's done in the countryside.

    Very interesting. I love seeing how other blk women take care of their natural hair. It's kind of like an old school press here in the states. Next time (to avoid heat if you want)...just put your hair into like 10 or 12 sections and bantu knot each section. Leave in for like a day or two. When you take down it will be stretched nicely, soft, and wavy!!!! Less stress on the hair.

    • @fillequixote

      Additionally, sectioning like this bantu method should help in using the clay pieces to stretch the hair a bit more, less use for oil and a more even style all the way around.

I'm amazed at both methods. This clay pot method reminds me of the straightening comb. That we use to beat on eye of stove & ran it through dried hair. Blow dryer we use on wet hair.
