How to Straighten Natural Hair: The Wash, Blow Dry, Flat Iron, Haircut, & Style

I will show you how I go from curly to straight. Ive been needing a hair cut for a while, especially since the last time I cut it was my Big Chop back in October and it was definitely uneven! I start with a pre-poo, followed by a shampoo and deep conditioner. Then I blow dry and flat iron my hair using heat protectant. Afterwards I went and got my hair cut (about 1-2 inches) and styled my hair the next morning. \r
\r
I also included a short makeup tutorial towards the end. \r

Night time routine: I did not wrap my hair after I curled it because I wanted to prolong the curls. Instead I slept on a satin pillow case and lifted my curls above my head. I included pictures of day 3 and 5 hair. It got fuller as the week went on.\r

If you like the makeup in the Day 5 photo heres the video! \r
