What does your hair feel like?

Napp · Jul 11, 2013

Pictures dont tell the whole story! Does your hair feel silky? wooly? like velcro? or does it remind you of a brillo pad?

If i were to decribe how my strands feel like when i run my fingers through it, i would say it feels something like velvet. I actually dont like the feeling that much. i wish it felt smoother

How about you? I am curious!

When my hair is really moisturized and in top shape, it feels like velvet too!! Sometimes it'll also feel like suede or plushy :lick:

. But my hair goes through this horrible phase a couple of times a year where it gets wiry and the strands feel kinda like sand paper. Lord I hate when it gets like that :cry:

I think my hair feels like a mixture of silky (maybe velvety I guess), textured, cottony velcro lol. I don't know it just feels like soft silky cotton in most places and my grays feel like velcro lol.

ETA: ^^^this is the way my hair feels with no product after clarifying. When cowashing it feels soft and fluffy. After product it feels soft and silky.

In the natural state, it feels like cashmere at its optimal moisturized level. When i flat iron, it feels even softer.

Soft, smooth and silky.

When its unmoisturized - rough.

Depends on so many levels

Soaking wet, it feels like oil on my strands, my hair just slips.

Roller set, it feels like smooth feathers. Sometimes, it almost feels like weave.

Air dry, it feels soft, but I couldn't put a texture on it. It's a soft smooth. If I use a bad DC or leave-in you could go cotton picking in this joint!!!!

Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together

When my porosity is in check and my hair is moisturized my hair has a moist smooth feeling.

When its dry, its still soft in a way, but you feel every cuticle on my strand blasted wide open. It just feels rough.

Nix08 · Jul 12, 2013

Smooth and soft. When things are really good it almost has a plastic feel. .. smooth, silky, soft yet strong. I guess how it would feel with silicone without actually using the silicone.

SmilingElephant · Jul 12, 2013

When i do the Curly Girl method consistently...my hair feels like the polyester cotton filling that u can find inside of a squishy teddy bear

My curls feel silky and springy...especially if i use some protein.

If its not moisturized properly it feels like super dry cotton balls :nono:

...hasn't felt that way since i first went natural.

pre_medicalrulz · Jul 12, 2013

like cotton balls you buy in the store. Not the original feeling of the cotton you initially pick from the field but the processed kind. lol

Ogoma · Jul 12, 2013

Velvety and smooth

MsDee14 · Jul 12, 2013

like a soft brillo pad

if there is such a thing.

blackeyes31626 · Jul 12, 2013

unmoisturized it feels like wire
moisturized it feels like a nylon rope

Napp · Jul 12, 2013

There are a lot of interesting descriptions here!

prettybyrd · Jul 12, 2013

If I'm wearing my hair curly and using my Tresemme naturals as a leave in, it's very springy and silky.

Days like today, when I've combed it and it's in a poof, it feels soft but dense like a yellow bath sponge.

naija24 · Jul 12, 2013

most days, i have no idea. i dont' touch my hair that often.

regular days: like dry hair?
post condition and moisture: pretty heavy and silky
after professional: kind of oily, which I prefer the most
after DD salon: dry as hay but silky

Lucie · Jul 12, 2013

Bushy. Bushy. Bushy. When I am natural it is bushy. When I am relaxed it is a bushy straight. BUSHY! LOL!

workinprogress1 · Jul 12, 2013

Soft cottony like a fluffy poofy cloud.

DarkJoy · Jul 12, 2013

wet: like dewy moss
unmoisturized: like half dried out grass
moisturized: cotton balls

DivineNapps1728 · Jul 12, 2013
