Dominican women have an incredibly wide range of hair texture due to their rich cultural history. They are known for long flowing locks, healthy manageable hair and beautiful shiny tresses. The popularity of their hair care techniques has gone astronomical heights, because countless Afro-American and Afro Caribbean women would like to know how to achieve the Dominican look and feel of hair.
"The Dominican blow-out" and "The Doobie" have become almost as famous as the country's baseball players.
So what's the fuss about? Well many women of color have come to realize that using this special hair drying technique that Dominican salons offer, any woman with any hair texture can leave the salon with soft, free-flowing, bouncy hair. And that this effect is able to last if the hair is regularly wrapped in the Doobie.
Many Black women are apprehensive about this drying system; where they feel the application of heat will be harsh on their hair causing breakage and weakness.
I am here to say the contrary: the Dominican blow-out works great with black hair, whether it's natural, relaxed or colored. You will find many opinions on in the internet but most of them have not had a consistent Dominican hair regimen.
I got a lot of advice from a great guide that talks all about Dominican hair care. I found that many Dominican hair products give hair the strength and luster that I have experienced with other North American products. My hair had suffered a lot of damage, because of using weaves. I finally decided to get on "Dominican Bandwagon" exclusively about 3 months ago, and I have not looked back. My hair is softer, stronger and the Dominican blowout leaves it shiny and bouncy.
I finally have hair that I'm proud to say is mine; no more weaves for this girl (well maybe on very special occasions!!). Dominican hair care all the way!
