to baggy or not?

any views would be appreciative!!

How does baggying work? =X

i believe is just wrapping hair with saran wrap or using a plastic beauty to encourage more DT??

I could see the logic in that. I do that when i Henna, but when I am just doing a normal DT i use those little plastic shower caps.

If you try it, let me know how it worked and if you noticed a difference. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

All last winter I put my hair in a phony ponytail and underneath I would moisturize with aloe vera juice and seal with castor oil. It really turned my hair around my ends stayed protected and moist all winter long. This winter I am experimenting with wash -n - go and twist outs so I baggy at night. I moisturize my hair with a creamy water based moisturizer and seal with an oil. I have noticed that I cannot do this every night because what happens is my hair becomes overly moisturized and mushy.

The way I baggy sounds similar to Jad928--moisturizing and oiling/sealing nightly (or as many days out of the week as possible), and covered ends in plastic sandwhich baggies (I've never tried covering the whole head though). I section my hair in 4 moisturize, oil, and put my hair in 4 buns, then cover/wrap those buns with sandwich baggies held on with bobby-pins


Here is a link to a photo showing how much length I retained in 4 months when I used this me nightly http://public.fotki.com/Ameme/comparison-shots/compar4.html

I had less split ends, and as you can see was ableto retain a decent amount of growth for those months, every morning my hair was nice and soft--I usually rocked a bun daily to protect the ends as well. Which reminds me I need to start doing this again.

When I had shorter hair I would baggy overnight with a plastic cap, similar to Jad928 and Jonezy. Right now it's waaaay too cold to baggy overnight with a plastic cap, so I've started using BelleMuse's method of baggying in the evening for several hours. I've only done it once so far, but my hair already feels softer.

I baggy at times...I know ppl with relaxers do it for their scruffy/dry ends but I do my whole head when it is lacking in moisture. However, I do not seal until the next day. I just put watev moisture on my hair put the baggy and then when i wake up take it off and let it dry a little and then seal with oil.
