In this tutorial, I show you how I restore my friend Alisha’s curls after a long-term protective style and how I set her hair in a wash-n-go. I also demonstrate how I “test” products to see how they may react when applied to the hair.
Featured products:
Phillip Kingsley Elasticizer is an intensive pre-poo treatment for all hair types. It adds elasticity, bounce, shine, makes hair more manageable and helps restore curls. What I loved most is you could literally feel the hair was smoother during and after rinsing.
Hydratherma Naturals Herbal Gloss Heat Protector is an alcohol free spray infused with lots of natural oils and extracts that help keep the hair moisturized. This glosser acts as a heat protectant and is suitable for wet or dry hair of any texture.
Other products and tools used:
Total Time:
Total style time with trim, treatment, and setting was 2.5 hours.
Keep and Care:
This style can be maintained by sleeping in the pineapple.
I’m interested in the Phillip Kingsley Elasticizer, but was wondering if it contained silicones. Went to their website and it doesn’t list ingredients.
I love styles and the way you take care of the hair. I wish you were in Chicago.

Are there any hair salons in the Brooklyn area that specialize in Natural Hair care. I would like to have my hair trimmed and conditioned. Thank You!
Mo what city are you in?
You mentioned she has to be set for 30 minutes in this video. Do you mean she literally sits there for 30 minutes air drying or is she set under a dryer for 30 minutes?
Thanks for the help!
