What is a silk press blowout service?
A silk press is specifically designed for textured or curly hair. It's a technique that straightens natural hair without the use of chemicals like relaxers or perms. Instead, it relies on heat styling tools and specialty products to achieve a sleek, smooth.
How long does a silk press last?
This is not your average professional long-lasting blow dry! A silk press service leaves textured locks looking flawless and silky with a mirror finish for up to 3 weeks. Your results will depend on how often you wet your hair. Sweating, exercise, and wetting the hair will revert your hair to its natural state.
How can I style my hair with a silk press?
You have the option to style your hair straight with a flat iron your hair or add some bounce by adding some waves. It's very flexible.
Step 1: Preparation
We'll start with a clarifying shampoo to remove any buildup, followed by a moisturizing conditioner or treatment to hydrate and soften the hair. This gives the hair a fresh start and helps the styling products be more effective. We use professional products by Alfaparf Milano, an exclusive line from Italy.
Step 2: Blowdry
Using a high-heat dryer and a round brush, we dry the hair section by section to stretch the natural curl pattern and prepare the hair for straightening. We concentrate the heat from the roots to the tips to create the foundation for silk, smooth hair.
Step 3: Press
Before using any hot tools, we always apply a heat protector. This step is crucial for textured hair as it is more prone to dryness and breakage. Using a hot flat iron and a comb, we work in tiny sections, detangling and pressing the hair from root to tip. Once all sections of the hair have been pressed, we apply a lightweight serum or oil to add shine and reduce frizz.
