Normally I comb my hair once I come out of the shower and let it air dry while combing it every little while. It air dries into very fluffy, frizzy hair. The next day, my hair is very fluffy and thick. If I wear my air-dried hair in one braid overnight, my hair the next day is still fluffy but less tangled and possibly lies flatter. If I wear it in a bun, my hair is tangled and fluffy.
I had this idea to let my hair dry in double Dutch braids and leave it in those braids overnight. I did that and my hair is still a bit damp today, but easy to brush (literally 10 seconds to brush it). While my brush separated out the braid waves (or curls) and made it more fluffy, I noticed that it's less poofy than usual. Also maybe not as thick.
I always hated my Day 1 hair (first day after wash) because it was insanely poofy. This feels like a small victory for me. :heart:
