TikTok’s Where It’s Going Down
TikTok account @foxcraftcustom is changing the world one hack after another. The video shows a curly-haired Liz using a pasta sieve to dry her hair and accompanying it with the caption, “I can’t tell the difference between genius and crazy anymore lol.”
Perfect Curls Exist
As she released the strainer from her hair, the perfect, most bouncy, and healthy curls you’ve ever seen made their debut.
Liz Is Stunned
The woman accompanied the discovery with, “Just found out my paste strainer is better at diffusing my waves than my diffuser.” You bet it is!
Enter Kelly Vowles
Now that this hack has gone viral and loads of women want to jump on it, hairdresser Kelly Vowles , a specialist in curly hair things, is dropping her 2 cents.
Been Down That Road
Apparently, Vowles has tried this really old hack multiple times in the past according to her statement to the mirror
Vowles Statement
According to the pro hair stylist, she kept a sieve in her salon when she started working with clients who had curly hair.
A Diffuser May Be Better
However, Vowles admitted she preferred an actual diffuser because it gives a better and uniform result.
They Both Perform Basic Function
According to the curly hair specialist, the diffuser and sieve perform the same task: breaking up airflow to evenly enter the curls.
Perfect For Beginners
The Pixal-Rose Hair Design expert added that it’s a good thing to try for beginners who won’t want to try out new hair tools.
The Sieve Method Works With A Specific Type Of Waves
She continued that the sieve method works better with finer, type 2 waves because this type of hair dries quicker, and it’s easier to pack it into a bowl.
No Hope For Thicker Hair
She added that it may be quite tasking to work it with thicker hair.
Top Tip For Diffusing Hair
Vowles recommends that people diffuse hair with low heat sources and on a slower speed setting in order to avoid touching the hair too much.
Use Heat Protectant
She stressed the importance of heat protectant, especially for those who have delicate curls.
Keep Specialists Close
The hair pro rounded up her session by urging people to speak to a curly hair specialist and buy recommended products that work for whatever type of hair they have.
