It's important to comb the hair wet from the ends to the roots. This way, you won't tangle up or snap the hair off.

Make sure that the style you select is the best one for your face! It's really important for the style to fit your face structure, as that makes a huge difference in the end result.

You shouldn't ever let it air dry, as that causes a lot of frizziness. Always make sure to blow dry your hair.

Technically, you can. If you want to use curlers, though, use a curling iron that is not over 400 degrees so you don't end up burning your chemically-treated hair.

Question

Does Dark and Lovely make hair long?

Community Answer

It depends on what kind of hair you have. If you have an Afro or African-American hair it will make it longer, but your lovely Afro hair will be straightened permanently.
