Fall is right around the corner – which means we can say goodbye to the scorching..summer heat! As we get into the cooler seasons, I opt for styles where I can have my hair all the way out – instead of having to frantically search for a scrunchie to pull my hair up! Here are my tips on changing up your look this fall – starting with a blowout.
Blow Your Hair Out Without Damage
One of the best things about natural hair is its versatility when it comes to styling – from being able to straighten your hair to rocking a big, beautiful blowout. The great news is that Uncle Funky’s Daughter has products to help you achieve any of those styles!
The brand recently launched a new line specifically designed to help protect your hair from heat styling appliances. This line has your shampoo, deep conditioner, heat protectant spray, and split end treatment covered! You can now safely incorporate heat styling into your regimen whether you want to straighten your hair or blow it out for various stretched styles.
Change Up Your Look With A Flexi Rod Set
My favorite style to rock during the holidays is big, voluminous, soft, glamorous curls! I achieve this look by doing a Flexi rod set on blown-out hair. I recommend the Maximum Thermal Protection line to wash, deep condition, and prime your hair before applying heat!
Once your hair is all blown out – grab small to medium sections and apply a small amount of Supercurl and a dab of Curly Magic to help set your hair before wrapping it around Flexi rods!
Then allow your hair to fully dry overnight or under a hooded dryer before taking down the rods to unveil some faux wand curls.
Layer Products For The Change In Temperature
If the temperature changes drastically where you live, layer up your products to ensure your curls always maintain moisture.
When I layer products: I first apply a leave-in conditioner, then a hair creme or butter on top.
Product recommendations in order of application:
- Midnite Train or Thirsty Curls Leave-In Conditioner
- Supercurl or Extra Butter Hair Creme
The fall is a great time to change up your hair regimen or try out hairstyles that were hard to maintain in the summer!
