- HyELLLOO. Since I knew we'd be busy with the move, I started filming this video a few weeks ago hehehe. I always love me a good 'let's just play with hair' video, so here ya GOOO.
As my hair is getting longer, I've been getting a little bored with it, so I decided to take a cue from the AMAZING scarlettohair (her info is down below) and try out some heatless curl methods!
ANYWHO I love you all!! Thank you for your patience while I get back to my regularly scheduled programming XD

“Hermione in the front; Hagrid in the back.” Rachel, I think I snorted about five times during this video! 😂
I literally loled when she said that 😂
Leviosaaaaaah
Same 😂 I loved this video
5 times isn’t even the average lmao
the fishing thing got me laughing out loud, had to tell my kid. laughed while telling. how did rachel keep a straight face?
I, as a male with short hair, have ABSOLUTELY no need/use for this video but I will be damned if I don't just sit here and enjoy every gosh darn second of it. Another great video Rachel!
This made my night Brian!
You never know when niche knowledge will come in handy… :D
@@user-qv4np3ur5w she is a healer. feel better soon : )
Hah, same! Watched Grav3yardgirl try some frankly outerageous options for curling; I mean, Cheetos??
I as a girl just shaved my head and will watch content with you that Not apply to be Brian you are a legend
"Time really flies when you still think it's 2019"
That really spoke to me 😂
To all the people saying "no brushing!": Rachel's usually going for a mid-20th-century inspired look, which does require brushing out the set. What kind of look you end up with just depends on what type of brush, and how you brush it.
This was a fun video! I loved seeing all the different results. I think the other person got a different result from the straws because she was twisting her hair and then wrapping it along the length of the straw rather than rolling it straight on, so that would be an interesting trial to see as well.
Can't wait to see more of the new place once you're set up!
I was under the impression that it depends on the size of the curls, too - like, the little straw curls were unforgiving (I really loved them pre-brush, though), but the bigger curls looked neater when brushed out. Also I read somewhere that natural curls shouldn't get brushed out, but "hand-made" should, although I don't know why?
@@renarde_0173 Curls need friends to look like curls!!! Rachel just doesn't want that vibe, she wants the uniform wave look of the 40s/50s.
@@renarde_0173 Brushing out naturally curly hair can get frizzy and tangled real quick, especially when they are tight/coiled curls! You can kind of see the result of that when Rachel brushes out the straw curls as compared to the looser ones.
@@lynt.8269 So it might be because natural curls are usually of the tight/coiled sort?
@@Tazzie1312 That's a sweet phrase! I often have the problem that some of my medium-sized curls disintegrate quicker than others (curls loosing their friends), so I resort to brushing because it minimizes the difference and the "mad witch" effect - Maybe I haven't figured out the right hair product use yet (gathering a lot of tips in this comment section)
“Time really flies when you still think it’s 2019” really hit a lil too close to home lmao
I know, right? Can't just call us out like that.
Same here dude
Practically needs a warning - "sorry, just gonna remind you of the reality that two years of this nonsense has gone by"... It's a mood. Definitely a mood. Anybody else need a hug...

Yup
A tip, when you are brushing out curls, use a boar bristle brush and only brush the curls from underneath so they don't frizz. Also, clean your brush free from hair before you brush so those hairs don't snag what's on your head. You should also give the curls a few minutes to set to retain their shapes before you brush them out from underneath. It works wonderfully and I have thin hair. Picking apart the curls with your fingers or a pick comb works well too.
Came here to say the same thing. A bristle brush is also much more gentle on your hair.
Plus a little hair oil or styling product on the ends will help the curls too.
Yeah I have naturally curly hair and watching her take a brush to the beautiful locks made me want to cry 😭
good knowledge, wish i had it before i decided to foam roll my short mullet hair and it came out looking like the paper straws
I heard somewhere that there is a difference between brushing out natural curls and "artificial" ones? Why would that be?
@@punkinwriting Thanks for the tips! Do you put hair oil on before rolling or after you taker the rollers out?
As a curly girl myself, I recommend a large tooth comb when it comes to loosening my tight curls. As a side note love your videos and hope your move is going well and relatively painless.
I think she prefers the poofy/frizzy style that brushing them out brings. Think of her normal curler set and 40s brush out
@@LCSharp yeah, but brushing it like that damages the hair a LOT. I also recomend a comb or even a wood brush, never metallic or plastic, and she also should start by the ends and comb gently the way up to the roots.
Denman brushes are a god send.
@@steph_lopez D90L
@@RebecaCabreraAbad agreed.
The tighter curls brushed out are perfect for a marida cosplay. The shape, the volume, and energy 😘👌
As a curly girl, my tip would be step away from the brush once you've achieved a curl in your hair. We use our fingers or a very wide tooth pick to separate curls.
Hope your move went well 💖
yes!!! i second this finger-combing or wide-tooth comb recommendation :)
I concur. Going further take some styling cream for curly hair, use sparingly, and use your hands to break up the curls. The cream will cut down the frizz.

I had vicarious stress from the hairbrush 😂
Yes! Fellow curly girl here. Most of us never use brushes on dry hair
Viv Hair Therapy does a lot of videos trying heatless curling methods, including one in which she used about a thousand hair pins that turned out INCREDIBLE. I think we need to see Rachel try it. Please? DO IT!!!
I love Viv! She's pure sunshine!
That one was amazing! But the length of time it took her to do it though... The bath robe curls here were like Viv's rag curls, very Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm
I love that video. Although I almost think the in-process look is cooler than the final result. Very sci-fi warrior queen.
I was just coming into the comments to say this, but I was like "I should do a word search first!" :)
Everyone should go check out Viv Hair Therapy, she's a joy. A literal, actual joy.
"Hair being long because you don't register the last two years in your brain" is such a mood. The people who get more surprised by my waist length hair are my college classmates that met me in 2017 with a bob haircut
As someone with naturally curly hair, I screamed internally every time you brushed out your dry curls. It’s also fascinating seeing someone try so hard to get curls. Seems just as difficult as a task as I have when I try and straighten my hair.
It’s just for the 40s/50s look 😂 I know today brushing curls is a huge no
@@TheKnallkorper that’s true! I can’t help but wonder how damaged hair was in that time from all the dry brushing of curls 😂 thank god for modern hair care products.
@@theardentarcher likely not very damaged as people with wavy/straight hair are not brushing AGAINST their natural hair pattern with a straight brush, but instead brushing towards their natural hair pattern.
I have naturally curly hair, but once I’ve styled my hair straight, brushing it does not damage it further than whatever initial damage straightening it might have caused (which is extremely negligible damage, anyway)
As someone who always wanted to have curls (having thin straight hair), and having chem curling now(no brushing them out!), straightening always looked harder for me...and also what's that with straightening already straight hair, hmm.. :D
Rachel, you looked so adorable after you brushed out the straw curls - like a little pumpkin spice flavoured candyfloss!
Glad there is a top comment mentioning this. Rachel - if you want some more volume and more of a "wave" effect with sleep-in braids, finger comb or use a super wide toothed comb; use just a touch of a reasonably priced detangler, divide your hair into sections, firmly hold a section of your hair near the roots without pulling the hair away from your scalp, then begin combing from the bottom . As another girl with long, unruly hair I can attest that this works well. I don't wash my hair very often so I opt to braid it every night and it never fails to look cute messy in the morning, and after taking the braids out, looks elegant throughout the day. It's my go-to also bc I can't stand sleeping with anything digging into my head. Even a soft robe belt tie thing would keep me up all night!
I honestly would like to see you try out some Viking braided hairstyles one day. Totally up to you, but i just think it would look cool aesthetically.
This was hilarious. And I'm not tired of listening to you talking about the move! I loved your old house and was sad to see you leave it, but house content is one of my favorite things and your style is so fun to watch
seeing Rachel's old home AND new home in one video is like being in two worlds at the same time, both in the beautiful universe that is Rachel Maksy's 🏡❤️ I always look forward to your IG stories and your videos here. thank you for letting us be a part of your whole moving process, and your growth as an artist and content creator. so, so happy for you!
The crossover event of the season
rachel after taking out the french braids: I'm gonna brush it.
me, yelling at my laptop: NO. NO! COMB IT!! COMB IIITTTTTT!!!!!
It didn't get any better from there either... 😭
Came to say exactly the same thing. 😁
That was the tightest brush ever as well 😂 finger combing would help too
Yes. I felt like that everytime after she took her hair down. Brushing takes out all of the curl and just frizzes it out. Which Rachel seems to like a little bit of, but it was very obvious the tighter the curling methods got.
Literally every time she picked up the brush. Oh my gosh never put a brush through curls.
Hilarious content even though I found myself yelling “nooo!” Every time she brushed it out. I lol’d at the last time when she didn’t even ask “should I?” The brush just appeared 😂👏🏻❤️
when you brush it out U gotta use a wide wet tooth comb it works a thousand times better
"Hermione in the front, Hagrid in the back!" Oh my God I just about died x'D
You, Rachel, are a wonder for sad days - thank you for existing :*
Also: brushing out french-braided "curls" -- I always do it, always regret it, and for some reason keep doing it... "Gotta commit" Yes, ma'am.
Thanks for sharing your awesome self with us :*
/Lizz
The ‘garbage Ariel’ got us all over here.
Also the paper straws: You went from little orphan Annie to 1980s Nicole Kidman in five brushstrokes. Brava!
Watching this as someone with naturally wavy/curly hair, this was stressful. Watching this as someone who basically grew up in a hair salon because my mom did hair for a living for a long time... slightly less stressful? Like, brushing out curls is legit. I saw it done hundreds of times. Rachel mostly needed better technique and maybe a different type of brush. Just yanking a plain cushion brush through curls is going to create that major Hermione frizz. You have to be gentle with curls to achieve beautiful vintage waves!
What type of brush would you recommend?
@@bowenarrows7819 Keeping in mind that I am working from past observation (my mother stopped doing hair around 20 years ago), what I most remember being used for brushing out curl sets was boar bristle brushes. You can probably use a paddle brush or cushion brush if that's what you've got, but technique is important. I remember her brushing from the underside and using her other hand to support the hair, then smoothing the top layer. You can probably find some good vintage hair tutorials on blogs or youtube channels that focus on vintage/pinup style that will explain it better than I can.
Amen! As someone who also has natural curls and a hairstyling mom.
I have wavy hair naturally and although the brushing wasn’t the nicest the waves still came out vintage, even though she wasn’t gentle with the brushing. So idk what you’re talking about
Also keep in mind that vintage hairstyles DO require brushing out curls. And yes with a type of brush that is similar to what she uses. Just look at some vintage videos from the 40s and 50s and you’ll see.
I know I have done many hair in mane time some types of hair curl different than others one thing I like about Rachel she is real transparent and no fake my kids are glue to your programs Rachel.
you are AMAZING I LOVE YOU. I'm gonna come visit you someday
The world is a much better place with Rachel in it! Love your videos. They brighten my days!
I’d be interested in seeing a straws part two. The way she did it was down the length of the straw so it was like a mega ringlet. The way you did it was like a tiny flex rod.
Came to comment this!
Always love the chaotic grandma energy, very much a vibe.
Always do the French braid style and my trick is to not physically touch it at all and instead just violently headbang like I'm in that scene from Wayne's World and then just gently run a teeny bit of hair oil in.
This had me burst into laughter. I use a plait down my spine, but I could see this inner image of a random woman vigorously waving her hair about to loosen the braids! (Comb girl here with brush later in the week when it's straighter)
Great video! This takes me back to all the curl experiments I did when my hair was long about 13 years ago. After many years of pixie cut and the nightmare of growing it out, my hair is almost long again and I am looking forward to trying out Rachel's curling methods for myself! (I want my hair to hold secrets too!). I hope that everything is going well with the unpacking Rachel!
P.S another fun curling technique is using little strips of cloth. I used to do this a lot, but don't tie the knots to tight or you end up having to cut them out!
Your channel is so special to me, it’s such a nice break from the pressures of the world. This video is so lighthearted and made me laugh when I needed it, thank you!
Not at all tired of you talking about moving. It’s exciting and a process. Was happy to see your video pop up. Is the “Crumb cake” quote from Casper?
Yes. The priest whose head turns all the way around. “Piece of cake. Piece of crumb cake.”
Yay! I'm not the only one who caught that!
Thank you it was killing me! I could hear the soundbite in my head exactly, but couldn't place it. I knew it had a Beetlejuice kinda vibe though!
Darn it i was thinking Marv from Home Alone for some reason? Now I wanna rewatch Casper...
Say it with me now, wide tooth comb. With a vintage set you absolutely want a brush to get the perfect shape. But with most heatless methods you want a wide tooth comb to break up the curls without introducing frizz. Also your hair texture is super reminiscent of my daughters and one thing I have found that works best is a misty spray bottle when I comb it out really makes a huge difference. But all that to say I have serious hair envy as I recently had to chop all mine off due to an unfortunate bleach incident.
Get yourself a nice wig for now! =) Hell, get a few, it makes it easy to change up your style!
Rachel, you are the only youtuber I consistently watch. You make my heart happy. Thanks for your wholesome content and your confidence to share the things you enjoy!
Never sick of hearing about your move! I can’t wait to see pictures!!
I have. A tip for your henna process. After rinsing, instead of shampooing to get out the henna, use conditioner. The conditioner makes the hair slick and the henna just glides out. Any conditioner will do.
Yes! That's my go to as well! So much easier than shampooing.
When I would dye my hair, I'd the same with my traditional 2x weekly conditioner. I'd have to use a higher end one so it was typically better than any that came in the box. Even when I used the purple a few months ago, I used the conditioner to help be gentle on my hair. I also have gone natural in the last 6 or so years and let the grey shine through. Added benefit was the tub didn't seem as stained as it did when it was just dye and shampoo.
Oooh. Cool. I would love to try henna but my hair is pretty dark, and I'm not willing to use bleach. Oh well.
Maggie Robertson: in the 80s, my hairdresser would use henna on my very dark brown hair. I loved the eggplant highlights you could see when in the sun!
I love how normal you are lol you're just a real person doing weird stuff at home. I always feel like I'm at a sleep over (in a good way) when I watch your hair play videos!
You can film literally ANYTHING and I will (religiously) watch it. Your videos have the best vibes, thank you so much for making me feel better all the time ❤️
You always make me smile. I really enjoy your 1940's /50's vibe...love your dark red locks and yes this was fun!! Waiting for the house tour. Happy Holidays!!
I’ve been keeping up with all of your insta stories and I’m so proud of you for everything you’ve done! This past month looks overwhelming and pretty exhausting. I hope you’re taking time to rest and just breathe and be in the moment of all of your growth!
Okay just finished the video-I cannot imagine doing all that work on your hair 🤣 I tried to do sponge rollers on my very short chin length hair and got tired! However, if you ever do, I’d love to see the curls loosely split up vs brushed out, because you have such gorgeous hair and I can totally see the paper straw curls being loosely split up looking like Shakira curls/A possible Claudia from interview with a vampire look!
I agree! Rachel is the best 🥰❤
As a guy with long hair, I'm definitely going to try this! Alao, thank you for introducing me to this photographer you had your shoot with; thanks to you posting pics, I followed her and then she did a shoot giveaway and I won it! All thanks to you!
Oh that's very cool! I hope you have fun
The bathrobe and french braid are my favourites for masculine looks because they're much softer, but all curls are super fun to play around with, so enjoy!
Cool! Congratulations on winning the giveaway! 👍🏻🙂🌹☮
This comment made me so happy idk why
As someone with curly hair usually for tighter curls you want to use a wide tooth comb so it doesn’t frizz out and break the hair ends as much. :)
Such a fun video and I love all the work you put out.
a little hair oil on the ends of the straw curls before you brush them out would help with the frizz. That way you will get the volume without are much frizz damage!
"you can hold the entirety of the freemason history just in this hair alone" is a sentence i never thought to hear but had me crying in laughter all the same 😂
Same! She threw me there. My great great grandfather was a Freemason. 🙂👍🏻☮
I was an actress once in my wayward youth, and somehow I did a string of Agatha Christie plays back to back. I basically lived in foam curlers for nine months and I am astounded at your ability to get the ends of your hair to wrap--I always had to use endpapers or I was dead meat. (And congratulations on the house, beauty!)
Impressed with the dedication to try all these!
Watching your videos makes me happy. Thanks. 💕
This was the most controlled ''I'm bored and want to change my hair'' I've seen, usually people just cut it all off.
I admire your self-control 😂
She did cut her fringe 😂
You should see me. I get bored, then remember the effort it takes to even remotely get close to anything interesting with my hair and give up. ROFL. I did having a pixie cut once, so glad I came back to hip length hair. Just wish it would grow longer but it has reached its terminal length. :(
French braid curls rachel: "I'm gonna brush it out" Me: "NO NO BAD IDEA BAD IDE- there it goes"
the straw one turned you into beautiful ginger cloud and I love it
Glad you guys are all moved. Hope you are able to relax over Christmas now x
The method Rachel used for the flexi-rods is basically just doing her foam roller set with a different tool. You can get a different effect by putting the end of your hair at the end of the rod, then spiraling up the length of the rod. (Gods I hope that wording made sense.) It makes for a *much* tighter curl that I love to wear. Though the rods I like to use are smaller than the ones she used here. Not as small as the straws though
Yeah the op did that method with the straws.
Do you find the flexi rods hard to sleep with? I'm a side sleeper so I'm afraid to try them.
@@jgriffin9084 in my many desperate attempts to get them to work for me I've never found them uncomfortable to side sleep on
@@jgriffin9084 I found some that are made of this softer foam Rachel's normal rollers are made out of and they are not uncomfortable, although they still have a wire for stability inside. Since I have quite thick and long hair, I still have to use some of my harder ones and I try to use them on the top of my head, so they wouldn't disturb as much. You surely would get used to it and see what works best for you!
@@jgriffin9084 as long as you don't roll them too tight by the nape, your ears, and forehead they're pretty comfortable. I didn't have issues as a side sleeper
That face she made when she took the straws out. That's the face of someone who just woke up and they're already done with the day.!
The charm that Rachel exudes at all times in her videos is truly impressive. I have short hair now and thus, no need to learn anything from this video, but I happily watched every second. :)
Yes, thank you, just the kind of everyday funny content I needed today. Much love!
Rachel: “My hair is full of secrets.”
Me: “All right, then. Keep your secrets…”
😂⛰🧙🏻♀️
Double reference 👌✨
Nice one. 😂
Me, as a woman with curly hair who shaves their head, 100% about to watch all of Scarlett's videos -- because damn. Good to see you again, Rachel! So excited for you and the new house!!!
i love your username!!
I have never done the robe curl with two robes! I always do one, and it gives bigger, more... blowout style curls, then. Highly recommend trying just one robe, or even doubling the robes together for a bigger curl instead of two separate sections.
Loved this!! I watched you play with your hair while I experimented with mine! 🥰🧡 perfect combination.
God, Rachel, I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes laughing so hard! You are genuinely one amazing human and I thank you for your content.
“Wavy & kinda boring, which is also how I would describe fishing” LMAO! Why is this one of my favorite Rachel Dad Jokes?!?
I’ve considered trying out different curler/roller methods but I’ve been too lazy lol. Glad I can watch ya do it for us Rachel!
czcams.com/video/bpGDJF8Py9I/video.html. ..
I luv setting my hair in bobby-pins. My mother wrapped it in rags when I was a kid. Two feet long shreds if cloth I had to manage holding them all together under my little hand. Ouch, my little arm! I'm a natural redhead. Old, but still red. My hair needs some revival. Revisions? Help! 👩🏻🦰
Be kind to your hair, young ladies, and all with your hair health. It ages for some very fast, if we naturally damage it enough. Imo. But what do I know. I'm a Boomer!
I think I'm gonna luv the new house! I luv'd grandma's! Sorry it had to be sold. Breaks my heart, but that's the way things go. 😔
So much of life ahead of you! Enjoy it! A wise mother once told her sons to keep a piece if their hearts for themselves. ☮🌹👍🏻👩🏻🦰
@@nyclady27 Rachel has done a henna before, you can find a video on it.
Looks helluva messy, so I haven't tried it, lol !
I find the less I mess with my hair, the better it looks ! Lol! And the bonus of being older is that gray hair is STRONG !
@@m.maclellan7147 I've seen that video. I luv her technicolor red hair. My kingdom... well, I'd give something to have my youth back for a spell again.
No gray for me. Most redheads go from red right to white. I got some of them. But not highly noticeable because of the blonde. Technically, I'm was a brand new copper penny 1953 strawberry blonde. Now it's so thin and brittle. But I'm attemting to make it at least look shiny and healthy. Ugh!
Anyway, nice to meet you. I can't wait to see Rachel's new home! I hope she brought lots of grandma's house furniture! 🙂👍🏻☮🌹
I throughly enjoyed this video so so much! It made me laugh! Thank you so much for bringing so much joy into my weekend!💕
Another time I watch a Rachel video and think laughter is really the best medicine!
My luck with foam rollers is not great. I do enjoy the robe tie method... It works really well with my thick hair and and I finger comb the results. I just tie the ends of the robe tie on the top of my head like Cindy Lou Who for sleeping.
Looking forward to more videos in the new house and seeing how you make the space your own.
I think I speak for all of us when I say we will never get tired of you talking about anything! After a week without a Rachel video I would happily watch you read the phonebook!
I am sure she could make it very entertaining.
@@reginafetty6374 correct
I'm sure it would be comic genius 😉
While watching the robe curl method:
Me: "This looks very Star Wars inspired?"
Rachel: "Why do I feel like... a Jedi"
Me: "Yes!"
Also now I just want to braid all the things and curl all my hair? I mean this looked like so much fun! (Except for the straws. That looked like it took ages.)
They should be renamed to Twi'lek braids or something XD
Omg, I loved this! You made me laugh so hard I started tearing up. Your comments are amazing. This brought some much needed Leavity to my day.
WOOHOOOOOOOO NEW HOUSE!!Love Your hair!!! The Plait Crimp look was so Preraphalite (can not spell for the life of me this morning hahaha) I actually love Your hair before You brush it out , when it is all ringlettttyyyyyy x
I think i need “Time really flies when you still think it’s 2019” on a t-shirt.
Always here for “pure lets play with hair content” ☺️
Congrats on your new home!
My favorite look was the, noodle rollers? It gave a very nice curl to your hair.
I discovered recently that I have 2a to 2c wave and some 3a curl in my hair. Doing my hair is different now that I try "curly girl" method for hair care. I always thought my hair was straight until I stopped brushing and started scrunching!🥰
Lots of love to Frodo, Binx and Nick. Also hope Tommy is doing well!😁👍🧙♂️🍻
Your videos never fail to entertain me. The last look had me impressed and laughing until I cried. Congratulations on the new home.
I will never get tired of moving talk or house related stories. I eagerly await all your home tours and decor vlogs 😍
What can be more entertaining on a Friday evening then to watch Rachel play with her hair and make faces? That was fun. Thanks❤️
This is literally what I needed today!!!! 🥺
I heart you and your fabulous personality so very much… I needed this video today. I spent last Thursday trying get my hair to curl and you covered every emotion I went through that day. In a non-creepy CZcams way I feel as if I’ve found a kindred spirit in all the best ways.
After doing the straw trick, use curl definition gel, scrunch, diffuse with hair dryer, and then comb your fingers through it until your hair isn't "crunchy" from the gel ❤️
Immediately, I am so excited by how much natural light there is in your office! I personally know how much sunlight (of lack thereof) affects my mental health so I hope you'll have many a happy days sewing and editing away in your office
Sometimes I stop watching youtube videos for months, than come back and binge watch all the video you posted that I missed!! you've been my favourite channel for so many years!
I so very, very much missed your beauty/makeup skills videos. ❤️ I love all of your cornucopia of creativity and your fast-progressing sewing skills. But, I’m a vintage girl, all the way! 🤩
Triangle head - that was my life in elmentary. My mother brushed out my curls all the time so frizz was the name of the game.
Loved those little bouncy curls!
It literally pained me seeing you brush out each method and then not like it very much 😂 what a fun video! Excited for the house tour!
I am ABSOLUTELY not tired of hearing you talk about moving. I am almost embarrassingly excited about your new house and am constantly refreshing your insta stories. I am living vicariously through you please do not separate me from my new vice
Rachel the LIGHT in here!!! I am emotional for you :’)
I did all the work of rag curls for my wedding day. Lo and behold, a few years later I learned my lions mane of hair is actually curly and looks like rag curls when properly loved.
English is not my first language. When you say "lo and behold" what does lo mean? 😊
@@marjoleinsmolders1630 "lo and behold" is a phrase used to describe something surprising that happened.
I'm starting to suspect my hair might actually be curly, at least a bit, could you suggest me somewhere I can find good, thorough explanation of the curly girl routine? I have no idea where to start😅
@@marabuora9547before you start anything, I’d advise figuring out your hair’s porosity (how porous it is). If it gains and loses moisture really quickly, and/or bleaches really quick, it’s probably high porosity. If it takes a few minutes to get wet and you sometimes see actual water droplets just laying on your hair, it’s probably low porosity. Different porosities need different products. Then, I’d recommend looking at India Batson and Penny Tovar. If you get not the method for a few weeks or months and you feel like your hair is just naturally looser than theirs, I’d look into a wavy hair routine. Hope this helps!
@@fibromiteready2fight809 thank you! I'll look into it😄
Need to add. I will watch ALL your videos. Even makeup despite me not wearing it. It's YOU that I come here for, not for what you're doing. You're funny, honest, and I've came to love your household as well (though Nick's an enigma). I can't wait to see all the new place when you're ready to share. Thank you for brightening up my Friday nights.
I screamed 'NO!' at the brush everytime lol. I love these tests, i think alot looked great pre brushing. Pulling them apart and just running fingers thru would likely give better definition where the brushing made it more frizzy. Can we get one without brushing? the straws and the rope braids i thought were the best without brushing
omg same lol
She typically does vintage hairstyling which involves brushing out curls
But I agree, these aren’t like mid-century hair sets so it was kinda ehhhh
This brought me so much joy!! Especially the straws!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I was feeling bored with my long hair so I gave myself a shag haha also it kills me every time she brushes them out 😂 😭 you can use a wide toothed comb to loosen them up without making it frizzy
I'm pretty sure she's looking for a lil' frizz. It's a look
Perfect way to end a Friday. Hopefully you're settling and resting now that you've moved!
Loved this! After brushing out the straw curls into the triangle, I couldn’t help but think you looked like Bette Midler in Big Business 😝
Oooh I’m glad you discovered scarlett I follow her too and she’s amazing! 🥰❤️
I recommend using your fingers (or a wide-toothed comb) to separate your curls, instead of a brush. That will help reduce the frizz. About two years ago I was growing out my hair and realized it's naturally wavy/curly, so I did a bunch of research into curly hair care and realized my hair was frizzy growing up from always brushing it 😅
She wants the brushed out 40s/50s look though
I love these! The stick one is my fav out of all of them. ❤️
Personally I curl my hair using a rope braid/rope bun method. Basically you split your hair into two sections, twist each section in the same direction, twist them against each other in the opposite direction and secure with an elastic at the bottom. The easiest and most secure way to do it is to twist a little bit, then switch strands, and keep twisting and switching. If your hair is long enough you can then twist the whole thing into a bun. In the morning you just take the elastic out and go through the hair with your fingers, no brushing required (or desired! You don't wanna end up with limp curls.)
It produces these nice, soft curls, halfway between curls and waves really. Makes me feel like an Old Hollywood star or Jessica Rabbit, lol. And if you want tighter curls, all you have to do is make two braids instead of one, or even more, it's up to you.
Yes! My mantra is "twist to the right, cross over the left" so I remember what step I'm on, haha. Sometimes I'll break it into 3 or 4 braids (mostly in an attempt to get SOME wave/volume near my roots, since my hair is painfully straight), then I twist 2 of the twists together, THEN twist the doubled twists into a single rope that I then twirl into a topknot for sleeping. Other times, I just twist them into 2 & wear 2 buns to bed. Heh heh,
This one had me crying of laughter while in bed next to my sleeping husband. Thank you for trying out all the weird things and keeping us entertained and inspired.
So many amazing jokes in this vid! I laughed so many times and the results were so fun. I love exploration like this as I'm always on a hair journey.
Can't wait to see your new house, I'm so excited for you two!
As someone with naturally Extremely Curly hair I died inside a bit every time you got out the brush. Try fingercombing, it doesn't break the curl and turn it into floof!
I hope Rachel sees one of these comments from her curly friends- I think it would help a lot!
Omg YES. I love RM but every time she brushed her curls with a drug store hair brush I died inside
She wants floof, though, that's how you get the 40s/50s look
@@Meta.Empress Vintage hair kinda does. You don't get that look by finger combing. czcams.com/video/eJ4qwPVp8KA/video.html
The same here, I’m thinking NOOOOO don’t do it…. Shake that hair with your fingers! Oh the humanity!
Sooo I just synced with Rachel when she said 'or HAIR goes nothing', did the little 'heh heh heh' afterwards with her too. This is how I know I'm watching the right youtuber 😅 Spooooky vibes are here even if the season hath passed 👻
Literally, all of them look GORGEOUS on you. The straw curl is ultra editorial and turn of the century. 🤩❤️✨
So, I wanted to watch this on Saturday morning, as I usually do, but I am in the UK for the weekend and experiencing some travel chaos. I just watched this now because I said "I need some serotonin!" and you certainly delivered! Thanks for the whimsy!
How did you KNOW I have been looking at heatless curl methods for my long hair!? Thank you for testing them for me! This was fun!
Loved this!! I either do sponge rollers or victorian rag curls (similar to the robe curls, but I use 10 strips of thick fabric and wrap one chunk of hair around each strip). The rag curls probably last the longest for me and aren't absolute butt to sleep in haha
Do you brush out with a wider tooth brush?
@@swish3432 sometimes I just use my fingers to brush out the rag curls, but I use a regular brush for the sponge rollers. I really should buy a wide tooth comb
awww I missed your hair vids.. so relaxing
Oh, this brought up so many memories of having long hair and being the daughter of a hairstylist! Except in my case, I used the largest rollers I could find because I was trying to tame my natural curls. (Straw 'do post-brushing was exactly how I naturally looked in junior high.)
