Cathy Howse Question

[charmtreese]

I bought Cathy's first book about 6 yrs ago, I've since lost it. I know she promoted air drying, but I could not remember if she used direct heat (her curling iron) after every wash, condition, air dry?

 

[taz007]

Yes, she used direct heat after every wash.

Thank you Taz, that's what I thought but I wasn't sure!!

So she is heat trained?

 

[Chevelure618]

she used to use the "curling iron method" of smoothing out the new growth each week. She blowdrys and flatirons weekly to this day.

Wasn't she against blow drying as a relaxed head?

Yes, no brushing or blow drying! lol....but I guess she changed her mind when she went natural. She did help me start my HHJ though, so shout out to Kathy Howse

Cathy needs to stop playing games and trim her ends

Yeah, I used her methods when I first started my hhj also...now that I have cut my hair I'm thinking about flat ironing once a week (to maintain my style) Blow drying never worked well for my hair though.

Maybe roller set on large gray rollers and flat iron roots....no blow dryer needed.
