... I should just shave my whole damn head and start fresh I stg
I always consider this smh
lmao same, i’m going to do it some day though
I might actually do this next year lmao
Lmao samw
Your words are tempting 😩😩
I’m so tired of having curly hair people think it’s so cute until they actually have it this is to much work for my busy life 😭 & my hair is frizzy asf straight out the shower
Sameee! I have 2C and 3A hair, for some reason, even when my hair is fully drenched, I still have frizzy. Like what?
DexPeel you need more moisture. Do a deep hydrating treatment. I recommend Shea Moisture’s intensive hydration hair masque
deep condition 1x a week to help with moisture!!
Over time you will learn what works for your hair and it will become waaay easier trust me I've been there!
When you're washing out your conditioner do it upside now and with cold water
i needed just this omg
Yay! Hope it helped!
Ya no kidding. I feel bald at the top because it's so FLAT 👊😠👊
Sameeee
Me tooooo!
Samee
So my mom has straight hair, sister wavy, and I have really curly hair around 3b. I get this from my dads side, but he shaves his head and before we go out, he tells me “just brush it” I grew up with no idea and frizzy, damaged hair
Me too! Ugh. The "just brush it" comment is the worst
@@pellaw8011 I used to brush my hair when it was dry because I just didnt care. I did this ever Since I can remember. Which is why my hair is so dry. I dont know when, but at some point I was like wait, I have curly hair why dont I take care of it? I also love how curly hair looks. I hope I can get my curls back.
I have 2 sisters, one has curly hair like me, the other has straight hair. She decided she wanted a perm and got it. The next day she says, “I can’t brush it when it’s dry? Why didn’t you tell me this before?” I really thought everyone knew that. She went back to straight real quick. 😂
All of my family has straight hair and I always wondered why mine was so kinky. So when I was in elementary, I would brush the hell out of my hair thinking it'll straighten it but only end up with frizzy and damaged hair. Only after I rebonded my hair did I realize my natural hair was actually curly. Had a hard time adjusting when it can be time consuming taking care of the curls.
Same!! Except my family members all have straight hair except my Aunty. However her curls aren’t as curly as mine so even she can’t help.
wow i need to dedicate an entire day for this
CiciTV yes! It’s a lot
No, this is NOT every day!
KK P that’s not what she’s saying she means when she does it she need the whole day 😆
Yeah I definitely don’t have time for this lol! I stop straightening to save time so I’m not going to do an extensive curly hair regime that’ll take me the same time of not longer to do! Lol! Looks like it works though and good. Just not for me.
I think the key is to look at other’s routine and see what works for you. Also since it becomes routine you tend to do things more faster. 😅
It's important to note that it is VERY common to have a looser pattern naturally at the root. These tips are intended to help encourage the curl definition. These tips don't need to ALL be done at once, but they can be implemented into your routine. Let me know if you try these and it helps!
Here's the summary of steps & the product links: www.getglammedup.co/2020/03/video-how-to-make-curls-tighter-at-root.html
Wow, I just found you yesterday, and found your videos phenomenal; I have been watching curly gurus on and off for years, but still struggled to understand how to properly manage my hair. I love your very direct, informative approach without the personal, extra fluff (also appreciate the neutral, non-distracting background). I have learned more from watching 2-3 of your videos than I did by watching others for years on CZcams. I tried your tips yesterday and my hair is finally looking as amazing as it used to look before the bleaching/straightening damage (I did my big chop 3 years ago but my hair had been meh until now)! Just now I was looking for how to fix flat roots on curly hair and your video pops on my feed! Lol. Thank you for your effort and I can tell you are going to make it to the very top.
M. M. Thank you for the thoughtful feedback. I appreciate it! I’m so glad my videos have helped. 💓💓
Hi Gena! I was wondering what denman brush do you use? I see they offer so many! The original, D13 or D14.. I have low density 3B curls
Seriously ! How much time does this take?
My pattern is looser at the ends. Maybe damage?
Gosh, you dont understand how needed this was
I'm completely exhausted after watching this.
SAME! This was just toooooo much and all those products, phew!
So true. And those products just makes my hair super freezy!
Same and I don't even have curly hair 😅
My intention was to help and share ALL the tips I have to improve your curl pattern, but that does not mean these all need to be done or be done at once.
@@GenaMarie what one should we do if we don't have access to all of them? What is your priority?
These are great tips thank you. Going to write some down so I can remember them better
- part your hair in a zigzag pattern
- use a denman brush at the root
- twist your hair to encourage a curl pattern
Also I know it seems like a lot of work (and it is) but you can get quite good at it pretty fast and it can be a fun hobby. I never used to think it was worth the effort but now that I've figured out what works for me, my curls are looking a lot better and it's really satisfying!
Yes, it's fun for me as well :)
How to make your curls look great.
Step1: have gena’s gorgeous curl pattern
Thank you! 🤗 all curl patterns are gorgeous to me 😍
OMG YESSSS
Yea my hair is half straight half very curly
@@haveythewavey1936 imma gonna try that twisty thing on my curls cause I have HIGH density THINK hair and struggle to get the volume leaving my under curls not having space to curl nicly.
@@haveythewavey1936 mine is half straight half wavy 🥲
Thanks, love. As a young man with long hair who recently just discovered his hair naturally curls, it's been hard for me to undo 17 years' worth of hair care knowledge that wasn't meant for me. I needed this. Thanks.
Thank you for this. I’m finally accepting that my hair is curly, and that’s that. So washing, diffusing, and styling is a learning curve for me. My hair is always pulled back because I’m active every day. Florida humidity, and sweat is always going to be my issue for my curls. Subscribed and following!
Florida girl here too, I understand the struggle lol
Florida humidity is a pain it destroys my curls
Maybe use foam/mousse? Directly translated from german it's called foamhardener, i always use the strongest ones they have and humidity is not a problem at all for me
I'm 37 and have been straightening mine for 15+ years. Im.finally allowimg it to do its thing were blessed to have many youtube channels unlike when growingbup!
I live in Florida to. Honestly its a struggle
I don't use a diffuser unless it is highly necessary. What I like to use to help with adding volume at the roots when air drying is using small hair claw clips. Make sure that the clips don't fully close onto each other, that there is a small space. For me, I use clips that I can fit the tip of my pinky finger without squeezing it. This allows me to lift my hair off my head, have air to flow to dry it out, without squeezing the curl flat.
So to put them in, I would open the clip, start about 1 inch or so down away from my part, scoop some hair and lift the hair, clamping it down close to my part. This will help lift flat hair near the part line. It can also be done all over the top of your head for an overall more volume. I hope I am making sense of what I am trying to say here :D
Omg I thought I was the only person to do this and I thought I was so weird but it’s so so so effective and effortless and I’ll never stop!!!
I love a diffuser if I couldnt use it I'd prob just blow my hair out lol.
I used the little clips to keep my forlock out of my eyes. It does give lift at the root. Left alone I look like a pony or a sheepdog.
That's how I do my hair after I wash it.
Wow you just took me back ! I did this in high school all the time & looking back at old pictures I was so confused why my hair didn’t have that top volume anymore.. I completely stopped that method & forgot until your comment just reminded me 🥲 bless you
I thought I was the only one and when I tell ppl they said it’s probably from heat damage but I don’t use heat on my hair
this!!! omg my roots are so flat and i haven’t used heat in over a year
Same problem I’ve never used heat on my hair
I can never style my hair upside down it would get all wonky flipping it over. Even moving it around to different parts while styling is difficult it just gets kinda tangled idk if anyone has the same experience
I don't style mine upside down because I have a bad back. Although it sounds like you might need to deep condition more often, and/or use a leave-in. It took me quite a while to find one that worked for my hair and didn't turn my head into an oil slick after a few hours. After I finish putting in all the products I'm going to use (three at the most), I let my hair rest for several minutes and then root clip with plastic duck bill clips. Look these up on Amazon to see what I'm talking about: SM SunniMix 50pcs 1.8inches Plastic Candy Color Curl Clips Duckbill Sectioning Clamps Alligator Barrettes for Women Styling
@@longyarn4288 yeah I don't really deep condition I just bought my first one and haven't used it much. I don't necessarily have a bad back but it does hurt my back if I stay bent like that
@@leilakabgrad123 - I know one YT'er recommends deep conditioning once a week, but that's a bit much for my hair, and frankly my time. At least once a month, maybe every other week if you have time, but you'll find doing so will make a big difference in how much frizz you have and allow you manipulate it more.
@@longyarn4288 yeah I probably won't have time to do it once a week since sometimes I only wash it once. Thanks for the tips 😄
@@leilakabgrad123 - Yes, it's definitely something that takes a bit of effort. I consider it part of my self care routine. However, if you're really pressed for time, look for "deep" conditioning treatments in those little packets that only need to be left on for 3 to 10 minutes. Depending on your hair, there's usually enough in them for two or more treatments. Fructis has three one minute "deep" conditioners in little jars; I just used the avocado one the other day, and they work nicely. Keep in mind though, a True deep conditioning treatment needs heat and time to truly go deep into your hair follicles. Best of luck to you!
WOW.... girl your skin! It’s so bright & clear! So pretty, I swear you look like a porcelain doll!
Aw thank you! 🙏🏼
Yes, SnowWhite!
Hermana! This helped a LOT. Plopping first for 5 mins BEFORE styling made a huge difference! Applying to dripping wet hair makes me lose volume. I also used a lot of mousse and after plopping the 2nd time added a lil bit of gel for the definition and hold that I need! Thank you!
Thank you for this comment, it's helped with my own hair journey! :)
My new curly routine is to diffuse just the roots at the very top. By the time I get to work, the rest of my hair is 80%dry.. within a couple of hours- I’m scrunching out the crunch and continuing my day.
Do you follow Manes by Mell? I know I've seen in a video of hers that she says to do that first so I'm excited to try it since you said you're able to be out the door after that. 😊
@@Cheshirejax - I love Manes by Mell, girl! I don't agree with her all the time, but most of the time she's spot on. Plus she's Funny!
My hair is wavy, but the amount of steps I need to have consistency is EXTRA
At least its not curly
@@mermaidethereal3578 isn’t everyone striving for consistent 3b curls?
this video is a game changer! Thank you so much for it! Recently transitioning into my natural curls and one of the biggest problems I was having was extremely flat roots. Tried many of these tips on my most recent wash day and I have amazing definition at the literal beginning of my roots! All of your content has been so informative and helped so much through this new process!!
I just started transitioning to my natural hair after brushing out my hair for years
Edit don't give up on your curls it may take a while but healthy hair is worth it in the end
same here! it’s such a process!
Same but I already gave up. Curly hair does not look good on me and it's too much of a pain to take care of it. Guess I'm gonna stick to my frizzy ass hair 😩 I'm so sick of this hair of mine. If only it could look presentable.
@@Lso895 don't give up . My frizzy af hair looked so bad curly for 1st 3 months . Now I'm on the 8th month of my transition and guess what they look much better
Also I'm a weeb too (this is my dad's acc)
sameeeee omg!! And I really needed this video, because what I have now, is very curly hair at the bottom of my hair and at my roots almost nothing.
Yea my roots literally STICK to my head lol. I really need to try the brush technique I’ve always had trouble w/root volume. I use the IGK Next Level Nordic Cotton root spray JUST BEFORE I diffuse & this is what REALLY lifts the roots right up off the scalp. It’s an awesome product. And then if there’s still some dampness, sometimes Ill root clip til it’s 100% dry & this helps too. Also, I take the Aussie instant freeze hairspray and I’ll lift a curl clump, spray the root & while holding that piece of hair, I’ll immediately hit that root w/the hair dryer at low air but high heat just for a second & the heat dries the spray immediately keeping the root lifted. This is mostly for spot root lifting. But it works well & w/o frizz if it’s done properly.
Great tips! I’ve heard great things about the IGK products for volume.
did it work?
I was about to open my mobile notebook to write everything you would say in the video when I found that you actually wrote everything down already on your website! Seriously this is soo helpful, if I don't write a video summary I totally forget all the tips said in it and it feels like I didn't watch the video in first place. Thanks a loot! If all beauty youtubers did this :)
Yay so glad you found it helpful! I have a blog post for every video linked in the description 🥰
Love it so much that you show us every step of the routine. I'am a visual person and need it to see it and not only hear it😆 I wish that the products are easyer to get in Europe. It is hard to get good quality products over here..
Thank you so much for this, my hair has been such a disaster for so long, and I never knew what I should be doing since i was the 'black sheep' in my family with curly hair
same!
Just seems like a BIG investment in time, we are talking about at LEAST 2 hours or more from start to finish & to me an overload of Products. Clarifying shampoo, scalp massager, conditioner, olaplex, shampoo again , deep conditioner, thermal cap, leave in conditioner, styling cream & mousse. Seems like a BIG investment in time & money . I simply could not afford this routine nor invest this much time in my curls. I have a full time job lol (just saying) Sorry
You have to do this everyday using a clarifying shampoo on a daily base isnt good at all even using a protein treatment like olaplex daily will just break your hair. Also, there's always an alternative products no need to spend that much money tbh.
You dont do this everyday, if you were washing your hair everyday then ya but that's just way too much, you do it on your wash day and then for 4 or 5 days you dont wash your hair, you wear a bonnet to bed and then touch up a few strands that got messed up, only takes me 10 minutes max to touch up my hair in the morning. Also you dont have to follow all the steps she did to get the same affect, I use half the products and half the steps, this video has a lot of extra steps, imma full time mom and dont got the time either, the most important steps are clarifying shampoo to get rid of product build up and to defuse your hair, also when i run out of products and dont got the money to buy more i make a flaxseed gel as a leave in conditioner and then use aloe vera from a bottle as a gel, cheap and effective, I only buy products when I'm feeling extra and use the flaxseed and aloe as my normal routine, only takes me 30 minutes to an hour, depending on if I defuse or not, hope that helped
You don't have to do everything or use gimmicks like scalp brush or thermal cap
Just used your first gers and regular shower cap.
Curly hair needs looking after.
Please do NOT clarify or use OlaPlex your hair every time you wash because you will have very dry brittle hair! If you wash your hair daily, try washing every other, don’t try the 4 day right off the bat because you will be a grease mop. That’s how I started and now I’m up to 4 or 5 days in the winter, summer due to humidity 2 or 3 days. I clarify and deep condition or olaPlex (both at the same time is extreme and would not work for my hair) about every other month but keep in mind I don’t wash my hair as often. And as someone else pointed out the 2nd day is easy ONCE you get the hang of it. At first we fumbled around on how to do this. I sometimes put too much product in or not enough at times. It’s all trial and error until you find what works the best for you. I watch a few different CZcamsrs, I just watched this one for the first time. I have wavy hair so I usually watch sway curly C. I PROMISE it does get easier as you go.
I get frustrated if a product costs more than £3.00 🤣🤣
I love how on your channel you actually provide examples
I am so happy I found your channel! My hair (on the bottom inside) is very similar to yours. Ive never known how to style it and it’s lead me to dislike my curly hair because part of it curls a lot and the other part just looks stretched out and weird. Thank you for these videos!
You’re welcome!! 💞
i can have a very curly hair when it’s styled properly but if i brush through it w my Denman i feel like it totally straightens the curl even w scrunching after...
Same
I have the same problem!
I have the same issue that’s why I just don’t brush my hair at all unless I’m about to wet it or braid/style it.
Same
Yep. No brushing at all after washing
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos. I know it's time consuming, and it is very much appreciated.
Aw thank you Connie! I appreciate you!
I thank you also! I'm finally starting to embrace my curls instead of always straightening my hair. I didn't know where to start. Thank you again!
I feel like my hair is having an internal fight where the one half that wants it straight is fighting the other half that wants it curly to death and in the end no one is happy, especially me
Just posted a video on this topic of uneven curl patterns :) czcams.com/video/jBDXxUXbm6I/video.html
@@GenaMarie Omg haha!! Thank you!! 💜
Finally... Someone who has my hair type.
For clarifying I use Aveeno but other than shampoos, a monthly deep conditioner or or protein mask, I don't use any other products.
Daphne Sinicropi you don't give your hair moisture with regular conditioning?
I just recently found your videos. I love them! They’re so helpful! I’m gonna be 60, and I’ve spent my whole life not knowing how to work with my curly hair. Thank you for posting these!
Thank you so much for this Gena, you are GORGEOUS btw!! I've been wearing my hair in a bun alot and now it seems like my roots are flat no matter what I do so thank you for sharing!!❤️🥰🙏🏼
I'm 40, very low maintenance, and I have absolutely no skills to get my curly hair to look nice. I'm a wash+messy bun girl. Tired of having no style. But watching your video..... it's so much work! I feel totally lost!
Awesome video 👏🏼
Thank you!
My hair has a mind of it’s own, and it a rebel!
I use little clips to lift my hair while it air dries, it helps ☺️
I just discovered you. You're such a curl pro hahahah I know we all have different ways on this curly path, but for a lazy curlygirl like me you are putting so much effort and work on It, I admire that and think your tips are amazing! 💁✨
ive literally done everything that you've said, watched multiple videos and have tried that. even went to a girl who knows how to work curly hair, gave me tips, tried them, worked for a few weeks and now im back to the start. frizzy wavy hair. istg im so done with this😭
And here I thought I was the only one lol
Yo I just learned more in this 1 video than I have watching 10-20 different videos from other CZcamsrs. Not exaggerating... Thanks and stay fly
Thank you so much for this. My hair naturally has a good but of wave and volume but I recently got a spiral perm to up the curl and I've been struggling with the straight roots. I bought all the oliplex treatments for my hair and they are working great but now I've realized that it was the way I was air drying and styling my hair that was causing the stretched roots. Thanks so much. I know allot of people think this video is long but it was very helpful for me!
I’ve never heard of the curl training thank you!
For real 😭 I have wavy/curly but when I treat it correct my hair is curly all this time I could’ve trained it and done all this to make it look beautiful
Can you please do a video on how to not lose as much hair when your in the shower? It’s not a health thing I think it’s just how rough I wash my hair, idk but if you can thank you!
i just wash and rince my hair upside down side to side and use scalp detox washing hair with hot water gets rid of product buildup i noticed it helped a bit and also put my hair upside down and use clips at my roots and while laying it upside down while airdrying my curls at my roots are slowly springing back up😍
This is the MOST I've learned all in one video for curls! Thank you!!
Ya... I’m a ballerina and have to wear my hair in a tight bun 6 days a week 😑, but I already have naturally soft ringlets so the definition is good, but my roots ARE FLAT
I like apple cider vinegar mixed with water for clarifying once in 2 months , gives a good volume,also I don’t use many products on my hair 😊
I love doing ACV rinses also!
Hi do you have naturally curly hair.
Lia Brewer yes I have curly hair , my hair kinda straight on top but spiral curls below and I’ve a fine texture hair
Apple cider vinegar doesn't clarify. It removes sebum on the scalp, but isn't strong enough to remove product buildup completely.
Having the help from videos like this helps me accept that I have wavy curls and they could be better if I follow the help that’s in this video
My hairdresser (Jamaican and Choctaw) says hair is 3x more stretchy and liable to break when wet. He says it should never be brushed or combed when wet. He has me detangling before washing.
I’ve been using my son’s peppermint non-sulfate shampoo if I have to go an extra day or two between washing.
This seems really labor intensive. I’ve just been using a leave in conditioner for curly hair, then I pin them up in sections (with a bit of a twist) with small hair claws for the shorter areas, and then a bun claw for the long length. I usually wash at night, and it’s dry and the curls are ready to be separated out in the morning. It takes about 5 minutes after I get out of the shower.
If I have to wash in the morning, I still pin it up but then aim the blow dryer at it for several minutes, allow to cool for 10-15, repeat the blow dryer and cooling process at least 2 more times (it takes about an hour-which is why it’s just easier to wash it at night).
The most perfect video! I never knew what I was doing wrong when washing my hair this really helped me a lot ❤️ hopefully my hair get to look more curly cause my curls always drop :(
Why was this so hard to find, i been struggling😭 finally some good tips!
Sooo glad I've found you! Love your calming personality and your videos are soo informative! Thank you Gena!
May try this! I haven't used heat on my hair in a couple years. I noticed you use a lot of products. My hair is so dry naturally. Being on accutane for the second time, it's even more dry now. I just went a month where I washed it with shampoo once. All the other times I used water and leave-in conditioner and a cream or gel or both. And my hair never got oily lol. When I was younger it was just all poof and frizz and I didn't know what to do with it and didn't have any sort of curly hair mentor, but after high school I started trying to learn about how to take care of it. I used to hate my curly hair and how curly/frizzy it was at the roots and was happy when it became straighter at the roots, and now I would love it to have the volume it used to (used to have my hair straightened and thinned to no avail) and finally have defined curls. Thanks for the info and the video really helped explain the process!
Wow I have no clue whats wrong with my hair then. The Denman brush almost completely straightens my hair when I try to use it as you show, when I plop my hair like you do it dries plastered to my head, and when I defuse my hair instead of air dry my ringlets drop to waves
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS TO ME SIS YOU ARE NOT ALONE
It’s all about how. When you use the Denman brush, it’s important for you to curve the brush and then activate the curl. When you plop your hair, don’t do it for the whole time. And when diffusing, it’s important to use a mix of leave in, gel, and mousse. Then hover on medium/low heat on low wind. Once your hair is dry, then you scrunch with the diffuser. So you take the diffuser and scoop the hair and lift it to the scalp. Until that point, the diffuser should not touch your hair. And once your done with both air drying and diffusing take a little bit of oil and scrunch/fluff out the curls. I know it seems like a lot but it’s really not. I would also recommend for you to watch Manes by Mell, she does her hair and her sisters which are different curl types!
@@lovefrom_lena Maybe visit Hair Romance's site or youTube channel. Her method is very different and might fit your hair better
Don't plop then. If it doesn't work for you, you don't have to do it.
Erika Fultz what cg line do you use? I was a devotee of Devacurl but it caused damage. Any suggestions???
Wow needed this! I literally can never get my roots to curl.
Did it work
Okay wait you look sooo young without makeup!! Like, your skin is beautiful
This is the most helpful video I’ve seen regarding styling curly hair!! Thanks and can’t wait to try tomorrow😁
Your curls are gorgeous so clearly this works for you, I just have never understood brushing out your curls!! I’ve tried a method similar to this and if I even just comb my hair while wet it loses so much of the curl!
Most brushes do mess up curls! She’s using a special kind of brush called a Denman (there are also knockoffs that seem to work), and surprisingly it seems to work really differently. I’ve only had it for a couple weeks, and I don’t use it every time, but it’s worth googling and watching some videos of it!
Yeah same - my hair is not as curly as hers (2b and cish) and if i do ANY separating during or after styling, im screwed. The only time i do any brushing, raking, etc is when im conditioning and detangling. After that any separation is a no no for me, otherwise ill have MAJOR frizz and barely any clumps or definition.
Okkk- I love my curly hair but it takes forever to get readyyyy when we go out- I have to start getting ready about 2 hours before we go out and I STILL end up being the last one to get ready 🥲 then I get in troubleeee
I'm glad I found you. I couldn't find anyone with the same fine curls.
I am late to the party here. I've watched the whole video and agree with some of the comments: too much. But I'm appreciative of the Olaplex suggestion and the twirling of the Denman brush at the roots. I enjoy your channel. Keep doing it 😄
If I touch my hair that much it will get tangled lol
same
Me with my 2b/c hair like that's a lot of brushing! I wish my curls were durable enough to comb x
Same its soo annoying
So I just now decided (as in like yesterday) that I am going to embrace my natural curly hair. I am bi-racial (half black half white). My hair isn't super curly, but when I wash it there is definitely curl there. Ever since I was a kid my mom would straighten my hair pretty much every day before school and I kinda just stuck to straightening it almost everyday ever since because I just felt it was easier. I didn't know anything about how to manage curls because I never even tried.... Until today. So I have been researching everything to know before I start. The flat iron has taken such a toll on my hair. It's dry and snaps at the slightest tug, it has broken off at the roots on the back of my head where I mainly focused with the iron so now I have little short pieces of hair atop my head. This was the moment for me where it dawned on me that I am ruining my hair. My hair is damaged. It doesn't look so good anymore. I always was aware straightening everyday wasn't good, but I always looked in the mirror quickly, didn't notice any damage and so I thought it was fine, but my hair finally said enough is enough. My question is, I have read up that if you wet your hair the next day and reapply some product it will revitalize your curls... Is that true? Because I don't have time to do all this if I have to go to work. Usually in the past I have wet my hair and then just let it air dry (without using any product which is probably a big part of the problem) and slept on it and in the morning my hair is all over the place, it's frizzy, some spots turn straight and it just looks like I have major bed head. I just need to know how I can wash my hair at night, put in some product and then wake up the next day with it looking fairly decent
You can use a satin bonnet for sleeping, or a satin pillow case. It really helps against frizz and hair damage. When you wake up the next morning spray your hair with water just a little bit and apply a bit of curl mousse or jelly. It only takes like 2 minutes. Hope this helps 🙂
Plopping while you diffuser roots is brilliant!
your side profile & nose is so beautiful
Yess i wish i had her nose
aw the lil deman brush is scute 😍
Haha I got the mini because it was cheaper 😂
Thank you for this video. It seems like a lot of time consuming steps, but it doesn't actually take that long. I've been doing the CGM for almost 2 weeks and so far so good 😊
These are really great tips. I’m so impressed at the volume you get although you have such fine hair!
How do you prevent the middle hair line???? My hair ALWAYS gets that middle line it doesn’t matter how i style it!!!!
Wet plop is a game changer!
I need to do it more!
C Land it makes my hair curl all wonky!
@@moniquegebeline4350 me too! Kind of zig zaggy curls
Hello gena you are kind and i am happy watching this beautiful lady glad to have you it is a pleasure to come to you.
That curl talk cleansing oil is the only thing from that line that I like, & actually I LOVE it! It's great for my itchy, dry, sensitive scalp. I like to use that about mid way thru my clarifying rotation. I clarify roughly every 4 weeks, but will use this at the midpoint between each actual clarify.
Have you tried Ouidad’s suggestion of putting hair clips at the root while drying? The clips support the root to give height and volume. Also, have you tried Living Proof in shower styler? It made a huge difference in my curls since I prefer air drying.
Yep, I like root clips too but don't find I use them much! I haven't tried the Living Proof product though you mentioned
Curlies need to realize that the curl talk line isn't fully CG so you'll need sulfates to remove the isoparaffin and other non cg friendly ingredients
i’m pretty sure the people that use them (including me) makes sure they know the ingredients in their products and are okay with having to use sulfates to remove buildup every once and a while :)
I REALLY love your eye makeup in this video.
I am shocked to find out I already use a lot of the same products you use, mostly from the Not Your Mother's curl line. I even have the EXACT same hairdryer! But I my scrunching technique is totally different, that must be what's flattening my roots so bad. Thanks for all the tips!!!
I love watching these videos and trying new techniques, but on a regular schedule I cannot take that much time to do my hair lol
The tips I shared definitely do not need to be all done at once, they're just various tips to implement in your routine 😊
I stopped brushing my hair in the shower years ago because the water makes the scalp tender and soft which pulls the hair folícle from the root making it loose and causing strain causing hair to fall out?
Water makes it easier to detangle. Should never detangle dry hair
So glad for all you share for us curlies!
I have worn my hair short for almost 30 years. Butch and short. My GF saw I had curly hair growing when I needed my haircut and she was blown away. Well, I let my hair grow in and I was trying to figure out how to make my roots curly, so thank you. I have been using Carol’s Daughter products, then someone just recommended Miss Jessie’s pillow soft curls. I haven’t used it yet. Every item you said on the video, I just bought at ulta.
Now when it comes to the Denman’s brush, with my hair being similar to yours, I don’t know what number that is. I was thinking about going for a D31. I could use some help on this. If anyone could respond soon so I can buy it quickly, I’d appreciate it. I will be following this video step by step as I get everything in. Lol
Please let me know about the brush and thanks so much for doing this video. I’m going to watch a few more to make sure you liked the Not my mother’s product.
I’m using hair sticks when I put my hair up, during the day. It doesn’t pull on my hair so much, and really holds it in place. I do use a silk scrunchie while sleeping.
Beautiful results! What’s the hair dryer and diffuser that you’re using? Seems like no matter what styling products that I use, my hair is always crunchy! Maybe I’m applying too much
Here it is! rstyle.me/+A-JC2bdB_GN_kVN0XlQoaw
Have you ever used Mop Top Products? I’ve been using the Mop Top Daily Conditioner. I like it.
Thank you so much for your informative, thorough, and helpful videos! I really appreciate them!
My friends: Ohhh I love your curly hair. It’s so easy you don’t need to style it or anything bc it just looks naturally gorgeous.
Me: Die in a hole
OML xD
rt same😭😭😭
Oh my! Do I ready need to,spend this much time? I just want to wash, scrunch, and go!
I compiled all the tips and tricks i know to increase definition, but you certainly dont NEED to do all of these at once/
Yikes I don't know anyone who does their curly hair in just three steps
Your videos are Sooo helpful! Its so difficult to find useful info for thin curls. Needed this. Thanks and please make more videos 😊
This is the best video I've seen on this!!
Sooooo much time! I don’t have this sort of time to do my hair! 😔
The tips I shared definitely do not need to be all done at once, they're just various tips to implement in your routine 😊
Honestly, if i brush my wet hair, I’ll just end up having a ton pf hair on my hair . So I avoid it completely.
Great info!
You look so much younger without makeup. When I first saw the videos I thought you were in your 40’s like me 😅
For gals who dont have this much time to do our hair - and I do my hair every day - I suggest purchasing Curly Hair solutions roller jaw clips, they are my HG product. If you have thick hair, you can apply them to damp hair. If you do not, dry, t hen apply - for as long as you have time for.
I have tried that tecnique and it doesn't work, in fact it doesn't even curl my hair 😭
ok hear me out. im watching this during quarantine and im trying to get my curls back. they used to be really really curly like a 3b but then over time they started being more wavy. long story short they’re a 3a type now but im still getting there. anyways my point was i dont have any products and like i said im in quarantine so i cant really buy them. can i do it without products?
Yes! I have styled with just water and scrunch in a bit of whatever conditioner you have. You don't get as much hold but your hair will start to get its curl pattern back. Good luck.
Yes, it's great to let your hair breathe when you can without products anyways. If you have a deep conditioner on hand, that will be your best bet! So happy to hear you're looking to wear it natural.
You might also want to check out GreenBeauty and Curly Proverbz both have some good DIY videos that might help you. One of them has a low protein coconut milk (cream) deep conditioning treatment that I love and works really well. Basically you only need three ingredients: canned coconut milk (let it separate and just use the cream), a small banana and some aloe vera juice. You can put a little oil in it if you want, and just use whatever you have, olive, coconut or avocado work well. Only leave it on for about half an hour to forty five minutes, because you can actually over condition with this, it's that good! Flaxseed gel is another DIY that you might want to check out. But if you don't want to raid your pantry - Amazon delivers! 😉
Jayme jo on youtube has done a vid on how to style with no products that is very good and she has 3b hair xxx

That moment when you spend a lifetime caring for your curly hair just so that random people can come up to you and touch it
