fluffy flexi rod set ✨ stretched natural hair

hey guys welcome to this video it's blake and today we're doing a flexi rod set using the using these purple flexi rods and i use a few of the peach perm rods in the front to help with the little bang area because i don't have any bangs so let's go ahead and get into it [Music] so i am starting on old blow dried hair i had previously done a warm curls and it just kind of turned into back into my blow dried hair so i was wearing those bantu knots for a few days because it had been raining so i'm just detangling my hair and sectioning it off so i can begin putting in the flex rods i do like to do cleaner parts with flex rods because flexors make your head hurt like so i'm gonna be using the hot eden body works hydration custard i'm gonna put this on first just for a little bit moisture because my hair is stretched so i don't want to add any water but i do like that product and then i'm going to be using the nairobi foaming mousse to set the style so i'm just adding enough to like dampen my hair not too much because i don't want it to revert and making sure that the section is detangled so it's easier to separate at the end and then i am twisting my hair onto the rod like i would as if i was one curling it so i'm like twisting my wrist every time i go around detangling the ends making sure those are really nice and smooth and i like to smooth the ends down around the rod and fold it up so i'm just repeating that all throughout my hair and in a little bit i'm going to show you how it is in like real time so you can see exactly how i do it better than that that's it [Music] hopefully that mark on my arm is not grossing all out i burp myself real bad on the curling wand and it burned and now i have this scar so yeah [Music] so here's how i'm doing it in real time just for you to get an idea it is pretty simple but i just wanted you to see like exactly how i was like twisting my hair up i do put my hair very tauntly when i'm rotting it and that's probably why my head hurts so bad because they're like it's really pulling on my hair but i just want to make sure it gets really smooth so it doesn't end up frizzy but i am twisting my wrist as i'm rotating it around the flexi rod and then i'm coming on my ends to make sure that they're really smooth and adding some more product and then smoothing it around the flexi rod and securing it by folding that into the flexi rod up [Music] so i ended up running out of the flexi rods but it was actually okay because i usually use perm rods in the front of my hair anyways so i just have some peach ones and i'm taking those for the front of my hair to create more of a bang effect and originally i brought in my hair the same way i did the flexi rod but i ended up doing it how i normally do perm rods and i twisted the root and rotted it up from the ends up if that makes sense so you'll be able to see it here in real [Music] time [Music] um [Music] you [Music] [Music] hey y'all so my hair is finally dry so it's four o'clock so pretty much dried on its own but i did go ahead oh wait i think the ones i did go ahead and sit under the dryer for like 10 minutes i don't know just because but um yeah i don't know if it's going to turn out exactly how i wanted i did do this like parting thing because i would kind of want like an afro look but this doesn't look like it's gonna be an afro so um yeah i'm just gonna start taking them down and um seeing what we got these flexors are also kind of big and i didn't have a lot of them so i did do very big sections so let's kind of see [Music] so [Music] um [Music] you [Music] uh [Music] so i don't have like a shape my hair isn't really cut into a shape i just try to like finesse so that's why you saw me like usually i'll take bigger sections in the back so it's elongated and then i'll do perm rows in the front because i don't have bangs at all so that's just kind of how i try to finesse to make them like shorter they're still like not that short but it's a little bit better for when i want kind of more of a rounded hairstyle and then you know i don't i try to remember not to do like a middle part but if i'm going for like a down hairstyle then i kind of do it all even but yeah so this is what it's looking like it's just very like stretch because we did it on blow dry hair but i don't know like if i like the shape so should i put it to the side oh wait maybe this side it's kind of similar to how i did my one curls like how it looked when i did my one curls just a little bit tighter so um if you didn't want curls like me originally you need them you know you want to make them last you want this a longer flexi rod so you can do to the side too but yeah i'll figure out how i want to do it for my hair maybe it's this lip gloss i decided to do a color lip gloss and i don't normally do that or i think it's making me feel old so hold on one second this is how i like to either preserve one curl stretch my blow out you know just try something different you know um in terms of like sleeping with it honestly i don't even try to make it last too long so normally i'll sleep with it in a pineapple just flip my hair upside down and put a scarf around it and then every two or three days like you just have to redo it especially if it's like humid outside but now that it's getting colder you don't have to worry about humidity but you do sometimes have to worry about the rain and honestly i just don't even like doing my hair like that when it's raining i don't wear my hair out when it's raining i just i don't but i hope you guys enjoyed this video and i'll see you in the next one
