I used the same products they use at the shop and follow the same regimen but when I blow dry my hair at home, it is not as shiny after I am all done, nor it is as straightI still get the compliments when it is all said and done but I feel and see the differenceIs there a technique in blow drying that I am missing or something? How can I blow dry it straight where it is shiny after blow drying is done?
To best keep the flavour and texture you should steam themBaking them dries them out too much IMOYou could microwave them on a low setting, but you would need to move them around every minute or so in order to ensure they got evenly cooked throughout If you steam them, then lay them out on a pan and cover itSteam them for about 10 to 15 minutes, then check to see how done they areIf you microwave them then poke them once or twice with a fork and cover the container they are in but leave a small openingMicrowave them for about a total of 10 minutes Apparently some people don't understand that IMO means In My OpinionAnd baking them uses up a lot more energy to heat an ovenPlus, you are going to bake them after you've softened them up a little first, so you'll be getting the end result of them being baked anyway even if you didn't use that method to soften them upSo why use a method which requires more waste in the form of used foil and more energy for heat when you are not going to garner anything more useful from it?
I like to bake the yamsPierce the skin and place on a piece of foil but do not wrap it in the foil or it will hold moisture inBake in 400° oven for 30 to 45 mindepending on the size of the potatoTest with a forkBaking the potato makes a dry fluffy potato which is what you want.then when you put the topping on, the potato will soak it in and it will be delicious all the way throughAs soon as the potato is cool enough to handle, remove the skin, it will just peel offCut the potatoes and place in a casserole dishCANDIED YAMS oven temp350°F 2 large sweet potatoes, baked 1/2 cup brown sugar 2 tbsbutter Remove the baked sweet potatoes from peelPlace in baking dishSprinkle with 1/2 cbrown sugar Slice butter and put the pats over the top of the brown sugar and sweet potatoesBake at 350°F until the sauce is carmalized(25 min.)
Whenever I go to the salon, they blow dry my hair in a certain way where they use a round brush and rotate it with my hair around it and it turns out pretty shinyAlso I'm sure they use shine serums.
