Can You Air Dry Afro? [Solved]
No doubt, air-drying can be a great way to go, but it’s not without its drawbacks. Breakage is one thing, but it can also lead to frizziness, product build-up and even mildew - especially for those with afro-textured or curly hair. Yikes!
Start with clean, damp hair: Before you begin air drying your afro, make sure to start with freshly washed and conditioned hair that is slightly damp.
Apply a leave-in conditioner: To help protect your hair from the elements and keep it hydrated, apply a leave-in conditioner to your strands before air drying.
Use a wide tooth comb: Use a wide tooth comb to gently detangle any knots or tangles in your afro before air drying it.
Separate into sections: Separate your afro into four or more sections using clips or ties so that each section can be dried evenly and thoroughly without overlapping other sections of hair.
Air dry on low heat setting: Set the blow dryer on the lowest heat setting and use it to direct airflow over each section of hair until it is completely dry, taking care not to overheat any one area of the scalp or strands for too long at once.
Style as desired: Once all sections are completely dry, style as desired using products such as curl creams or gels for added definition and hold if desired
Air drying your afro is a great way to keep it looking healthy and bouncy! It’s super easy - just wash your hair, apply some leave-in conditioner, and let it air dry. No need for heat styling tools or blow dryers. Plus, you’ll save time and money! So go ahead - give it a try! You won’t regret it.
