DON’T BRUSH YOUR HAIR
Despite what you’ve been told, brushing your hair while it’s still wet is about the last thing you should do.
This is because when it’s still wet the hair is in a fragile state, which could lead to split ends and breakage.
Instead, the hair whiz recommended waiting for it to dry and then brushing through any tangles.
NO HOT STYLING TOOLS
Absolutely no hair styling tools should be used on damp hair.

Using any type of hot iron or curler on your wet locks can actually cause more damage to your hair than it normally would and it isn’t simply repaired with a heat protectant.
Li noted in the clip: “It will fry your hair.”
NO HAIRSPRAY
While there are many other products that you can use when your hair is still wet, hairspray is definitely not one of them.
This is will only leave behind a crusty texture once it completely dries.
