Hey Maicurlies!

I’ve got a new styling video up of how I do my long fluffy puff!

I sometimes wish my hair were a little shorter because I would be able to call it my fluffy Afro puff but gravity likes to pull my hair downwards (not that I am complaining about my hair.) 

Products/Tools used:

• Spray water bottle
• DIY Creamy Leave-In Conditioner
• DIY Mixed Sealing Oil
• DIY Rosewater Flaxseed Gel
• Hair Bubble
• Soft Bristle Brush 

Styling Tutorial 

I did this style on day 3 of a Wash-N-Go and my hair was a little frizzy and dry so I needed to first remoisturize it by applying water, leave-in conditioner and to seal a little oil. 

After moisturizing I separate a section of hair at the front with a hair bubble because I will style that section last. 

I then apply a little gel to the edges of my sides and brush them back gently. 

DIY Flaxseed Gel

Apply Gel or edges

Brush back edges

I collect and pin my hair down in the middle of my head till I have pinned all the hair on one side. (I use two bobby pins crisscrossing them over each other until I reach the back where I only use one bobby pin.)

I repeat the gel, brush, and pin routine on the other side.

I then style the front by first spritzing a little water, adding a little gel, brushing the edges. 

I spray water and then apply the gel

Brush back the edges

I like to give myself a little “pompadou” or bump at the front and then pin the hair down.

I like to fluff my hair out to make it bigger and then fix areas that need fixing.

And voila!

What do you think? How do you make your fluffy puff or Afro puff? Would love to hear from you!
