Sleep Routine for Short Wavy Curly Hair - Medusa Clipping
I have very fine hair. Does putting it up like this pull and straighten the roots?
you look a bit like lauren graham 🥰
Two questions...Where do I get a hair analysis? 2nd...What are your thoughts on clarifying w/color treated hair
Good LORD, I feel like I have the same GD hair you do & never heard about the whole porosity idea! Thanks!!! I'm watching ALL of these!
You look elegant, beautiful, satin and soft
so cute
I use scalp oil as a pre-poo treatment
My hair responds well to pixie 🧚♂️ diffusing with gel or mousse
Cute too…
My mind is busy being blown. I’ve never thought of myself as having curly hair but this video makes me realize I could have hair just like yours if I only learned to style it correctly. Thank you for the education.
Oh my gosh. Who knew it would be this simple of a difference, between squeezing your hair or plopping etc and slinky. My hair looked more amazing than it has in years, since it’s thinned out. Thank you so much!!!
Yay!! I feel the same way! Can never go back to plopping or micro-plopping and scrunching those fingers in around delicate curls!! So glad it’s helped!
@@fitkatstyle4388 I think some is in other videos but I’d love to ask what hair products you specifically use that you’ve found our hair type holds well in or nourishes etc. Ive recently been trying to have everything extremely natural, I just bought some stuff from Just Nutritive I’m going to try but Ive had such a hard time with any products.
I love combining products (2 creams, 2 mousses, 2 gels or more etc) and I also have some discontinued favorites that I use! That said currently available products that I like are AG Recoil, Curlsmith Foam followed by a firmer mousse like G2b Volumaniac if they still make that? For gel I like Curlsmith In Shower Styler mixed with Jessicurl Spiralicious. I always combine the latter with stronger gels otherwise it gets too heavy and my hair gets flat without enough hold but it's great for keeping moisture in during the winter and keeping frizz out in the summer. I do like the controversial Deva Curl Volumizing Foam but my bottles are not the latest iterations, miine are 1st and 2nd generation. I think they are on 3rd or 4th now so I cannot attest to how those work. Hope that helps.@@matlinwhitten7800
You are just the cutest and your hair is beautiful! However, I could not really see some of the clipping, because your hand was in the way, and honestly just couldn’t see a big difference before and after. I’ll keep tuning in. Thanks, Kat.!
Omg! Brilliant!! I never even thought about micro plopping bending up the curl pattern. Genius! I'm trying this tomorrow!
Awesome! Glad it inspired. hope it helps!
Hormones change the hair tremendously too!
Hi Kat, are you still making videos? I’ve always appreciated yours because you’re the only wavy curly that I’ve found that has fine, lower density hair like mine. And you’re closer to my age (I’ve been struggling with perimenopausal hair loss). I miss your guidance ❤
And here I was doing this same thing since my hair got wavy during perimenopause in 2010 or so, just called it squashing.
Late to this party. I will try. My hair is not thin necessarily, but medium texture and fine , but my hair is a beach wave, not curls and can get frizzy in parts. I’m going to try this because I think the upside down thing will annoy me since I use the twist method still. lol. Been doing that my entire life. My hair isn’t short. It’s medium length and I don’t use a lot of products. Some salt spray or some lolavie detangler and I do use conditioner in the shower and sometimes a leave in but I don’t want to weigh it down. I have wave , not curl. This is very informative.. thanks
Report back how it goes. A little gel to help hold the wave will help you see more wave and show it’s potential. If it is crunchy don’t worry. That’s holding he curl i. Place as it dries. Just scrunch it gently to release the cast or crunchiness. Thanks for stopping by and sharing!
I just had a short hair cut, first thing in ages and i didn´t know how to sleep without the pineapple you save my life! thank you so much :)
So happy I found you we have the exact same hair type! I just started with this journey and your videos have been super helpful!! THANK YOU!!!
Welcome! Glad my hair type is finding it’s people and providing help. 😉
Very nice!
Thank you so much for sharing your methods. My hair is very very similar to yours and I've been struggling with the same challenges. ❤️
I am just now learning about different diffusers. Very helpful. I am wondering how do you make sure that these different diffusers fit your particular dryer if it's not the same as the one you are using in this video?
The silicone collapsible one fits most. The Xtava has a removable thick rubber band like component that allows it to fit bigger dryers than with it. The Deva dupe hand one has a little flexibility or give in the opening as well. I don't know of any exact way to be sure. The Dyson dryer and ones that look like that won't fit any of the "normal" sized openings of these or similar diffusers. It's a bit of a gamble. In general Revlon has pretty standard sized nozzles. But maybe just have an easy return policy wherever you buy from.
Way too many products! Takes way too much time
Completely understand! If I could get the results I like that last me 4 days with out refreshing and last through flying on airplanes and changing climates by using less products, I would. But the time I save on days 2-4 without needing to refresh make it worth it for me. My ways are definitely not for everyone. What have you found that works well for you?
This is so helpful. My hair is blonde and finer and wavy. It's not suuuuuper curly but curls when it's humid and cut right. It def curls if I scrunch it and care for it right but I just tried a gelatin treatment to see how it will help!
Looks great
I've been using CG routines for a few years, & am excited to have discovered your videos for hair like mine! Thank you! ... Any tips for what we w/fine, low density should ask for when trying to get a good, volumizing, layered haircut? I was burned by (another) bad cut that left my hair looking more thin & scraggly, & I'm now scared to get the cut I need!
That’s a tricky question. I’ve had 5 Deva Cuts and most were bad and even the ok ones weren’t worth the price tag considering how short and low density my hair is. None were trained through Deva how to deal with our type hair. I usually had to do some major clean up as it grew out poorly and other times I just flat out saw gaps. They are trained for more dense hair. Out of frustration and my love for all things hair i now cut my own hair. And have for 4 years. I’d say get a traditional cut maybe even dry or try another type of curly trained professional and avoid Deva. Be prepared for high prices though. I do k ow some have had great luck but I think it’s so dependent on the stylists instincts at some point. I now cut my curly families hair as well. Lol
Thank youuuu
Your hair color, cut, and curls and YOU are beautiful!!! Love your smile! 😍 Also so helpful to know that you haven’t gotten that kind of first day look and curl with only one product. Thank you!🎉
Thank you! Ingenious 👍
I’m so happy to hear your tips. My curly girl experience has been difficult because my hair is fine wavy/ curly like yours. Your tips really work! Thank you!
I wish you could have shown the next day how it came out and if you used any products
There's another video she put out "Medusa Clipping Up 'Do (GRWM)" that shows next day hair.
I’m new to CG and I’m so glad I found your channel! My hair is similar to yours. Are you still making videos or are you on any other platforms? I see it’s been a few months since your last video. I really enjoy your content!
love your video and your hair, lots of good advice.
I normally "plop" (and then leave the towel up for half an hour cause I'm doing a million other things), never have great clumping, and roots were flat as. Accidentally did something similar to this when I was in a rush and just wanted moisture out before diffusing, ended up looking better. Glad to see a video on it that explains more.
You are very pretty and have a sweet voice. Thank you for sharing your clip how to!! It really helps to know hoe to do it right. I have the same colic in front of my head. I to have a small head but am 5'7" tall. Let my hair grow out to gray and found out I had curly hair! i now have the proper products and it looks good!! Very happy and I am 77 years young.
Thank you! I know you posted awhile ago, but I just ordered and the code still works! I'm getting my haircut short, and I'm researching your channel for how to protect overnight! Great content!
can you please do a full hair routine on RUclips? My hair is very similar to yours
Thank you for sharing this! Looks very easy to do. I wanted to leave a comment on the hair clips. I used to use the same ones because they hold so well but my hairdresser noticed I had shorter hair underneath in the areas where I usually clipped my hair because the metal in the clips had cut them. So I had to stop using them, at least regularly. So nowadays I mainly use the claws.
This video has given me so much encouragement and hope for my own hair. I truly believe it’s an answer to my prayers that I found your videos and channel. Thank you for sharing ♥️
Oh I’m so glad. I hope there is some info that truly helps!
So much awesome information! Your videos are very informative and easy to follow. Thank you so much :)
I am so thankful I stumbled across your video. I originally was looking to see if anyone on RUclips was comparing satin and silk pillow cases and I loved the video that you did on comparing them. It brought me here! I unfortunately have a lot of breakage around my hair line from the years and years of wearing headbands, tying my hair up, and using bonnets to sleep. It’s a new journey for me to sleep fully without a bonnet on my head and I didn’t want to use a scrunchi and possibly pull my hair more. This is such an awesome method! I just can’t thank you enough ♥️
Glad you’re trying no bonnet. We want that breakage to grow back! 🙏🏼
@@fitkatstyle4388 yes! I am hoping things will get better with time and patience. Thank you so much ♥️
Best review I’ve found on this topic
Great advise. I’m going to try these tips. 💕Thank you Kat.
Hello! Love your videos! I was just wondering if you have any style tips for wavy/curly bangs? I can’t quite get it. Maybe I just need to survive the “training” time period lol. Do you keep certain products out of the bangs? Thanks! 😊
Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoy them! I apply the same products to my bangs as the rest of my hair but I wear my face framing fringe longer than many with a more tradition "bangs" look. If mine were much shorter I might play around with some different techniques or application methods. But I haven't had to do that, so I really don't have any pointers from experience. What seems to be the kind of issues are you having?
@@fitkatstyle4388 I’ll have to try with all the products. I have pretty traditionally cut bangs when stretched out they hit about mid nose. My curls are quite similar to yours. They either end up looking pretty decent or sometimes they’ll just fall flat across the forehead. I diffuse them but am not getting it quite right for volume lol. Thanks for the reply though. I’ll keep trial and error!!
@@renee4883 hmm those would be really short bangs for me. I don’t think diffusing would work b/c it could mush them into a weird place. I think air drying and using small duckbill clips at the roots for lift might be a good option to try. Are you wanting them longer and curlier or a bit straighter and more traditional?
@@fitkatstyle4388 ohhh I think I might be doing exactly what you described lol. I will typically diffuse them with the rest of my hair and try and manipulate them a little bit when dry. I typically like them with a bit of volume at the root and as more of a side bang blending into my hair. I think I prefer the volume to the tight curl. Sometimes I find they look silly on me when I get tight curls. I will try clipping. I’m not very good at clipping they usually fall over on me! I’ll for sure try that! Thanks so much! You’re so helpful! ❤️
Amazing 😲!!! You are late to the party - P R O M O S M.
Welcome back!! Your hair looks great. Would love to see how you diffuse your hair.
Thanks! Good to be back. Check out my How to Style video I diffuse in there. I’ll eventually update it but there are untouched topics I need to hit first. Let me know if that helps. I don’t use the Xtava diffuser anymore because my hair is a bit shorter.
Very informative video and your hair looks perfect! I have a hard time deciding what is enough oil and what is too much. I always feel like I need to cleanse my ends more thoroughly after oiling to keep from being stringy which feels counter productive. I would love for you to do another video with more information on oils! Hugs 😊
Thank you and good points. Maybe I'll add this to a video in the future on oils! Thanks for the ideas!
Yes please, haven't a clue about most things for us wavies 😃 Loving your tips and advice xx
Thank you! Then I'll keep them coming!

Argan oil as pre-poo and or sealer? My scalp likes it in winter
Definitely absorbs well so a pre poo. But truly any oil has the potential to be a sealant especially if it is trapping moisture underneath it. Do what you hair and scalp like!
Yes, I would love to see a video on different oils! Thanks-enjoyed this one.
Yes, would love to see a video on oils that absorb vs seal! Enjoyed this one. I need to start pre-pooing more often.
You got it! It's going on the list!
