What do you do to your hair after you moisturize?

[SleepyJean]

This is a spin-off from my last question. You see...my hair always poofs after a moisturize. I try to keep my hair straight during the week with my sad excuse for a roller set (It's getting better with each time, though ), but after I moisturize.... I find that the only way I can maintain my straight style is to rollerset after I moisturize. Is there any other I way I can do it? I'm really interested in hearing answers from people who moisturize with flat-ironed/pressed hair. Tell me your secrets!

I seal with coconut oils and wrap my hair What are you using to moisturize? IOthink most people use a heat protectant flat iron and the moisturize and seal with oils HTH

After moisturizing I bun. If I'm going to bed I baggy my buns and wrap a scarf around my head.

I'm trying to cut down on flat ironing. I haven't flat-ironed in awhile. I rollerset, now. However, when I did flat iron, I used a heat protectant not moisturizer to flat iron. I moisturized a couple of days afterward.

I use Elasta QP Recovery Oil Moisturizer to moisturize and seal with hot six oil(I ran out of olive oil ). The problem arises after a moisturize/seal. If I just put a scarf on my hair after I moisturize/seal...afro. I HAVE to do a rollerset to keep it straight. Am I missing a big secret? Moisturizing wrongly?...or Do I just lack the moisturizing skill? Rollersetting after moisturizing works...but I despise the manipulation.

Is your moisturizer a water based product, because if it is, that might be the problem.
