    Idk why but when I was little I thought that the diffuser attachment on a hair dryer was a 2 in one : I could dry and brush my hair at the same time 😭🤣💀

    This is why you can’t pay attention to TOXIC TIKTOK I almost scrolled past this video because soooo many women of color get angry when white girls do videos on their curls! THIS VIDEO HELPED ME SOOOO MUCH AND IM A WOMAN OF COLOR I GAVE UP ON DIFFUSING because it came out frizzy and just ugly thanks to this video I’m going to try it again so THANK YOU!!!❤❤❤❤❤
