      If you handle your hair often, imagine how many gloves you will be throwing away and contributing to their accumulation in landfills. You can wash your hands, dry them, and apply lotion afterwards. Not only will the feeling be gone, but you will also be lowering your carbon footprint/ impact on the environment. Just something to consider.

    For all y’all wondering why she uses gloves it’s not really anything to do with sanitation when doing your own hair, it’s mostly-
    #1 for better slip
    &
    #2 for shinier twists because none of the products are transferring to the skin the hair gets to soak up ALL the product
    #3 if you happen to have any snagged/hangnails it doesn’t effect your strands
    I have been doing this for years and my twist outs are always bomb!!!
    Kudos to this lady! She knows what’s up!!
