Braiding Cornrows & Twists:
Baggie Cream Instructions!
The baggy method is a way to help your hair retain the moisture it needs for maximum growth retention. The baggy method (if done properly) will reduce breakage, split ends, dryness and the need for constant trims. It's up to you! The sky is the limit! You have many options such as sandwich bags, cut trash bag, shopping bag, window insulation plastic (thin), saran wrap (best for whole head baggies) & plastic shower caps. Most of these baggies are easily applied on a braided or twisted ponytail. Among the most touted oils are coconut, olive oil, castor oil and sweet almond oil, WGO and others. These oils are used AFTER the moisturizer has been applied to the portion to be baggied. Moisturizers vary. The best being natures own, water. There are countless moisturizers to choose from, some of the popular ones are glycerin, BB Moisturizing Lotion, SCurl, CareFree Curl Gold among others. You will have to experiment a little to find which moisturizer is right for you! This depends the length and thickness of your hair. I like to say a dime sized amount of moisture for those who are shoulder length-APL. A quarter size amount will do for those who are BSL or longer. Only a small amount of sealant oil is needed after the moisture is applied. You would moisturize your hair and seal with oil as described above. If your hair is too short to ponytail you can simply comb your hair back. If you are natural (short length) all you have to do is apply product. Place the saran wrap or plastic cap on hair. Saran wrap can be controlled and wrapped as desired. Note: Many full head baggies complain of wet hair upon waking up. This is due to the natural body heat you produce and possibly sweat. If you are uncomfortable with this, consider moisturizing, sealing and sleeping with a satin bonnet instead. This is your time to be creative! You have many options ranging from wrapping a scarf around your baggy, using netting or another “cool” cover-up. Many users wear phony pony’s and phony buns to cover the baggy as well. · When can I remove the baggy? That depends on your schedule and lifestyle. MAny women who baggy only do so at night. Thos who do so during the day use cover-up methods outlined in the previous answer. However, it is suggested that one allows the hair "breathing time" to fully dry. Te will discuss this further in the following Q&A. You will know that your hair is overly moisturized if you hair feels limp to the touch is easily stretched or is breaking easily. To avoid this it is recommended to allow the hair a little “dry time”. It is recommended that occasional protein treatments are given to the hair for recovery. This is especially needed for relaxed or chemically treated hair. Set a time in your schedule to remove the baggy and allow your hair to get much needed oxygen. Hair is overly moisturized. That means too much product has been applied. Reduce the amount of moisturizer on the next application. Hair is breaking after using baggy for a couple of weeks. Hair is most likely in need of a protein treatment.
