I’m not a fan of anything pruney 😠
Pruney hands will be the death of me honestly.
Nothing makes me want to take a snack break from getting my hair done than having wrinkles in your fingers to do them with.
It’s just a weird tactile feeling for me in my opinion.
So….like all great first world problems; there’s a great simple solution.
GLOVES.
I started incorporating gloves (outside of the shower) into my routine styling time, and it saves me soooo much heartache AND product honestly. Using gloves is nothing new albeit but when my hair was 4in long, I wasn’t it in as much to get this pruney. I’d usually be halfway through styling my hair before my hands would begin to shrivel; now for comparison it’s like I do 4 twists in one section and my hands are pulling prunes on me.
So what do I do? I whip out the lab gloves when I know I’m going to be dealing with my oils, cremes and butters.
Doing my twists? A cinch.
Braids? Slice of cake
Nothing really has the space to soak into my fingertips so it leaves more product for my hair to absorb if need be, and if not- It rinses right off the glove.
I think this might be permanent you guys 😅 - I’ve seen some youtubers use gloves while recording, but I wanna know does anyone else use them daily 👀
