Hello Doves,
How are you?
For my first educative post of the year, I want to share how I managed to trim my hair without blowing it to get a good stretch.
When it comes to trimming, there is some controversy as whether to snip the ends dry or wet. I personally prefer to make the cut on dry stretched hair as I have a good idea of how much to remove. Also the shrinkage from wet hair can be deceiving and you'll end up cutting more than you may have planned for. Another thing is it's possible for me to see and feel the bad ends better when the tresses are dry.
I was not planning on using a blow dryer as I didn't want to use any heat on my hair. So I got the bright idea to use threading as a method of getting that perfect stretch.
I got a bundle of unused braid extensions to thread my hair.
Here are my steps :
