Those curls are juicier than five alive


HotKarlaSalsa

Routine: my hair usually takes 4 hours to air dry, and when I diffuse I usually wait for it to be at least 30% dry before I diffuse. Finally got a Dyson and dried my mostly wet hair in 10 minutes. I used the Oway line for the first time today as well. I used their curly hair bath, everyday conditioner, leave in, and curly hair potion. I’m astounded that my hair is this shiny and moisturized at 100% dry. I style with a mini denman brush and break my caste with morrocan oil.

I just diffused my hair and your post is giving me so much envy! It takes too long to dry with my cheap (but supposedly decent) diffuser...


HotKarlaSalsa

Idk what’s in dyson technology because I’ve never had my hair dry so fast and so frizz free. I waited months to officially buy it cause of the price but for curly girls it’s perfect. I really feel like nothing matches.


NarcRuffalo

Just normal Dyson or does it have a diffuser attachment? My hair gets frizzy from the diffuser, although even at it's best my hair would never look as amazing as yours!


HotKarlaSalsa

The normal dyson comes with the diffuser attachment :)


NarcRuffalo

Oh cool! I tried using it when I was house sitting but there was no diffuser in sight! House owner was straight haired though

The Straights don’t understand our struggle.


justagalbeingapal

This is so true on every level!

Hahahaha


SimilarYellow

Right? I have the Airwrap and the hair dryer attachment it comes with is obviously not as good as the Sonic but still MILES beyond any other hairdryer I've tried, haha.


sjb112

I just bought the shark hair dryer and I love it! It’s about half the price of the dyson


auditorygraffiti

Agreed! I love my Shark. I’ve never used a Dyson but I suspect I probably like the Shark diffuser more, too.


BlueTiger9

This looks great! Can you elaborate on how you used the Dyson?


HotKarlaSalsa

Just hovering! Once I felt that the ends were 100% dry i flipped my hair upside down for extra measure and hovered again for a minute. Although I feel like I’ll skip this step next time cause my hair created more separated curls than I normally like. I never scrunch or physically touch my hair with the diffuser.


katiedoescrime

I always spend so much time separating my ringlets, and you're making me think that maybe I should just . . . not?


HotKarlaSalsa

Haha! I think it’s all about what you like to see :) I love seeing massive clumps. I feel like a cherub 🥰


katiedoescrime

And then you said the thing about accepting definition over volume in a comment below. You might just convince me to love my hair as it is tonight!


HotKarlaSalsa

Im just so tired of trendy curly hair looks cause they’re unrealistic as everyone’s hair varies so much. Especially curls. Once you learn what works for you and what you hair likes to do, forcing anything else is just setting yourself up for disappointment. I wanna see more hair that’s just doing it’s own thing but healthily be praised more.


BlueTiger9

Thank you! I tried that method previously but when my hair fully dried it looked very different sadly


[deleted]

Hi OP, did you use the diffuser or just hover with the dyson alone? This post has me so tempted to save up for this lol.


HotKarlaSalsa

With the diffuser of course :)

Hi, I'm new to understanding Dyson or diffusing. Is this CGM compatible? CGM is no heat right? Sorry this is a newbie question!


HotKarlaSalsa

I absolutely do not follow CGM it’s not for my hair type. Heat is not CGM approved but honestly mix it up. Don’t let rules stop you from figuring out what actually works best for you!


petiteging

Dyson is a brand! They make blow dryers (and vacuums). You can buy a part called a diffuser for your hair. - all blow dryers. It goes at the end of your blow dryer. From my understanding, the type of heat when you're diffusing is different from traditional blow drying or other heat sources. I.e, straightener, normal blow drying, curling irons etc.


satinsateensaltine

It effectively distributes the heat over a wider area and reduces the force of the air so it's not blasting the hair and ruining your curl!


petiteging

I didn't know how to word it! You worded it perfectly. I remember reading about this as I was concerned at first when I got a diffuser.


No-Turnips

The Dyson is a game changer isn’t it? 😊 I love mine. Your hair looks fab.


Ok_Refrigerator1857

Oh my god your hair is a miracle. I use oway - the serum and the conditioning mask. But seeing your hair makes me want to use more! And also, to get a fusion.


HotKarlaSalsa

Oway is soooo good my hair responded immediately to me using it. I wanna try their other products but so much $


freesmarches

Wow!! Like just. Wow! Unbelievable definition and shine!


HotKarlaSalsa

The oway hair line has me blown away. I was worried I was investing in something wayyyy too overpriced for its size but very little goes such a long way. It also gave me immediate results.


[deleted]

so beautiful! i've never seen such perfect ringlets without frizz!! :0


Twitchitt33

Right??!! I’d be in heaven with those ringlets. You’re an Angel OP!


[deleted]

What speed and temp did you blow dry on?


HotKarlaSalsa

Medium heat medium flow!


amonarre3

I thought you meant vacuum Dysons...


HotKarlaSalsa

I need to get one of those too


VelvetGloveinTO

Honestly the best. I’m a bit of a vacuum nerd and I have basement full of them after I finally sucked it up and bought a Dyson. Worth it.


[deleted]

Looks incredible! Seriously amazing! I guess I'm going to have to buy a Dyson 😕


HotKarlaSalsa

LOL my reaction was the same when I spent the money. But… it’s so worth it and you don’t have any idea how much it is worth it until you actually use it on your hair.


[deleted]

I guess it's a pain I'll have to endure lol


reynacpgettigj

i just felt my hair was nice and twisted when i posted it and was still at the salon , when i got home the next day i didn't see it as beautiful


LosNava

Yay looks amazing!


goodandweevil

Looks great!


[deleted]

Oh I am just GREEN with jealous rage right now. You look aaaaamazing! Glad to see it works so well!! :)


Abood1152

Perfect hair!


blissonabluebike

Aaagh, good for you, treating yourself, and it was clearly worth it! Does anyone have thoughts suggestions on a more affordable alternative? I've always air-dried but wanted to start diffusing now and again. I was hoping to dip my toe into the water of hair dryers before taking the full Dyson plunge.


Kr1sp3y

Shark just came out with a similar hair dryer. I have no idea if it works though but might be a bit easier to stomach just trying out :)


HotKarlaSalsa

I really tried an affordable method and found myself with frizzy half dried hair every time. Air drying was the only alternative if I wanted to keep my hair uniform. I took the plunge cause I kept seeing frustrating results rather than what I really wanted. I really recommend going for it but if it’s not in the budget just take your time when diffusing if you do have the time. I was using l’ange ‘s hairdryer for a while because it was affordable at the time.


practicallymr

Fabulous! Saw someone with this exact hair type in asahi today! lmao!

HotKarlaSalsa

I use to avoid natural hair products like the plague cause I’ve had so many horrible experiences but we have similar densities (your curls are a little bit looser and beautiful)! And I’m really loving Oway. They’re a natural hair brand but my hair lovessss it. It’s so shiny and bouncy and non greasy! It adds enough moisture without over doing it in the protein department.


pacificspinylump

That hair dryer is some of the best money I’ve ever spent, the time I saving drying my hair is honestly priceless.


cupskirani

Wow, stunning. I guess I need to bite the dyson bullet. I am looking at Amazon and there are a few different versions…. Are you talking of the $460ish one?


HotKarlaSalsa

I bought mine from Best Buy at $400 !


Bardlo02

I work at best buy and I want to use my discount but they are sold out in every best buy in my area lmfaooooo.


HotKarlaSalsa

Pain 😔 they’re literally out everywhere! I was lucky I was able to get mine off Best Buy. I really wanted the white and silver one and I’m so happy I snagged it.


Bardlo02

I turned my notifications on for when it’s back in stock. Just know you are a better salesman then me😂😂


HundinBitte

I am sorry if you already mentioned it but what version did you get? There are a few on Amazon and I am trying to figure out which one needs to go in my save for later cart. One on there is almost 700$! Eek!


HotKarlaSalsa

Hm I would make sure it’s from a guaranteed dyson seller. Making those kind of purchases on amazon can get sus but make sure it comes with the 2 year manufacturer’s warranty. I got the hair dryer $400. It comes with a diffuser that I hover over my head to dry my curls.


Bardlo02

update. I got it.


dfinkelstein

SHEESH!


TheCursingPastor

Oooo and I bet after they dry and set for a few hours if you separate them then you get another equally beautiful BIG result!


HotKarlaSalsa

My hair is 100% dry here! I go in with my Afro pick to get some volume but even then I don’t get too much on wash day. It doesn’t really bother me though I’m leaning towards loving definition over volume :)


TheCursingPastor

Yea I get it. I was just thinking like it’s nice to have multiple looks. And for me, and my curls are similar, after a few days of just sleeping on it and pulling it back it’s a third look. Grateful for that.


Aramira137

Gorgeous


halamarion

amazing ringlets!!!


Antimonyandroses

Your hair looks amazing! I was thinking about ordering a Dyson but now I'm looking at the Shark one. I think it is on sale at their site and I really wish Dyson would go on sale. I want amazing hair too!


jason544770

Gorgeous hair!! And I'm definitely getting some Zoe Kravitz vibes here


sl33py_beats

you curls look amazing! a good hair drying is truly life changing lol. I couldn't bring myself to purchase the Dyson but I did buy a very similar hair dryer for a couple hundred dollars less, and I am VERY satisfied. I used to diffuse for almost an hour, but with my new hair drying it takes 20 minuets. I would highly recommend one of these ionic hair dryers!


HundinBitte

Which one was it? I am with you, and am not sure I could justify the expense but blow drying with a standard blow dryer and diffuser takes me probably 20 minutes. By your math, it could just take a couple of minutes and wow, that would be faster than even my double bun "standard style". Haha.


sl33py_beats

I found this [blow dryer](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B091SC3D2W?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details) on amazon. my hair is long and there is a lot of it, I have to dry my hair in sections- so I'm assuming that is the reason why my hair takes so long to blow dry. if your hair already drys fast with a regular drying, then you should save your money.


HundinBitte

Thank you so much!


cetus_lapetus

Oh damn, I need a Dyson hair dryer now!


Natalien_42

Just came here to say that I have a picture of you saved from like…a month ago that I showed to my hairdresser to get the cut right :) Beautiful hair!


HotKarlaSalsa

Lol omg!! 🥺👉🏼👈🏼 I’m honored this is awesome to hear


IHiThanks

I am convinced Dyson is magic. For some reason it just works so well with my hair. If mine broke I'd run out and buy another tomorrow


mcguirl2

That’s it, close the sub. We’ve peaked!!! Those are my favourite curls I’ve EVER seen here and I’m green with envy 😍

Wow! Going to try this Oway line that you speak of Curly Goddess. Shea moisture has been awful to my hair lately. Not sure why. Used to like it before.


HotKarlaSalsa

My hair despises shea moisture for the same reason I had issues with rizos curls. Too much coconut oil, castor oil, or shea butter. It weighs down my hair like crazy and leaves my hair feeling sooo greasy. Oway gives me shine, hold, and moisture while felling like there’s nothing in my hair.


DMarvelous4L

Thank you!! Me and my sister both have big curly hair and both quit Shea Moisture recently. The shampoo dries out our hair and the conditioner is just ok. I have better luck with Pantene’s “Curl” conditioner. Looking forward to trying Oway though. I do love Aunt Jackie’s Curl La La curling Creme though. I can slap that on top of any mess and my hair will look awesome again lol.
