    This made me realize that my hair really is wavy. I remember years ago as a child I had super curly hair, but over the years my hair has lost all definition and is just frizzy. I shaved all of it off recently and am on a hair growing journey! I use to scrunch my hair to get some waves and curls but for some reason I thought that made me a faker. Not that curling your hair makes you a faker or a poser, but idk! I don't like feeling fake. I appreciate this video sorry for the monologue lmaooo

      @melindab  4 года назад +72

      Destry T I used to think the same!! Haha I thought that since I used product it wasn’t my natural hair lol but that’s not true. People without waves or curls can’t just use product and create them, you have to have it already 😋 I think most people have a little bit of a wave to their hair though they just need the right products to enhance them!🖤

    God, I wish we were taught to not brush out our hair when it's dry 🥺. Wavy/curly/kinky hair can be so pretty, and it's so sad how people want straight hair. Let me tell you, for so long I wanted straight hair because I would just brush my hair and it would always be so frizzy and big, and there was tons of breakage. My hair felt too hard to manage. Let's learn to embrace our hair and take good care of it 💗💗 I've always felt that product made my hair not true. (If that makes sense) I felt like I was faking my hair, almost as if someone would curl their hair with a curling iron. But now I see it as just as people see a shampoo or conditioner, it's hair care. It's a way to treat and embrace your curls. I hope someone sees this message, and if you read all the way through, I hope you have a good day, and a good hair day :D (I'm still trying to figure out my own hair and I'm still going through my journey. I'd love to hear your stories too.) 😊💞

      If you have wavy hair, it can actually be better to only brush when dry. That way you don’t lose definition by brushing wet.

    i am 2A/B myself & I really love Cantu Wave Whip! I like a softer finish without a cast & this works for me. It's foam, not an actual mousse. I like Infusium 23 (Original formula- white bottle $8 at Sally's) I use that after a shower & prior to Wave Whip. Infusium is an awesome lightweight leave-in & repairs the hair like no other=) It's also CHEAP!
    Manes by Mell is a useful channel - Mell is a professional who shares the scoop on ingredients & what they do. Like using styling products with glycerin only when the temp is 40-70 degrees & not humid etc... Glycerins proper place is in a conditioner or leave-in. Mell also explains which ingredients are humidity blockers. I can finally have hope for a good hair day no matter the weather=)

    Love this! I used to do curly girl method (for over a year) but my hair and scalp loves the cleanliness I get from sulfates and I use some products that contain silicones because it helps with my tangles and I swear it helps me form clumps better for my waves. I used about every bottle of shampoo and conditioner in the maui moisture line and all of them gave me scalp issues, I think its the sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate they use as I had another brand of shampoo for a while that gave me the same scalp issues, I even had TONS OF HAIR FALL using the shampoos I had with that ingredient

      No my hair is pretty coarse but I would recommend trying a little protein if you’re not sensitive to it. The women to women naturals gorgeous collection leave in conditioner gives me the most curl definition EVER but it has protein. It’s what I use on my refresh days and it holds my curls for several days🖤 if you are sensitive to protein I definitely recommend the knot today though!

      You both might think about trying Zotos All About Curls line it really brings out my curls, especially the reluctant ones on the very top of my head. I've tried all but the deep conditioner so far and L.O.V.E. them! I got the sample pack at Sally's Beauty Supply but ordered the bigger bottles off Amazon. I think, in general, a person should wash with a gentle sudzing unscented shampoo first (this washes off accumulated dust/pollen and starts the process of cleaning the products from your hair strands), and then go in with their low, or no, suds wash (this wash pulls the rest of any products from your strands) and then conditioner, but that's me personally. I just don't feel like Any no suds wash gets my hair Super clean all on it's own, but I do like the way this one makes my hair feel. I also rotate between different brands just to keep my hair from getting weighted down, and it keeps me from getting tired of the scent of the products.

    An itchy and flaky scalp can actually be a yeast infection on your scalp. You have natural yeast on your scalp and a lot of things can trigger an infection. I had one and it actually wasn’t from the products I was using on my hair, it was from going to sleep with wet hair! I got a small treatment for my scalp and it did help but as soon as I stopped going to sleep with wet hair my scalp was completely fine. So if you get a tone of dandruff, flakiness, or an itchy scalp see if it might be because of that.

    Try to dilute jojoba oil with aloe vera gel. I used to do this when my hair was bleached and badly damaged. While jojoba oil is conditioning the hair and making it soft and shiny, aloe vera will help to distribute the oil more evenly, hydrate the hair and define your curl (when it dries out, it became kinda "soft hard", and so it saves your curl shape)

    I used your method of flipping your hair a couple times and then applying product, and my hair looks amazing! I also used some oil to smooth my frizz, and my hair looks so much more defined. I’m glad I found a routine from a person with 2a hair like mine!

    Pro-tip for people with color damage: aphogee products is a saving grace.
    Pro-tip for everyone: every week or two weeks use tea tree oil before your shower for a hot oil treatment. I kinda focus on my scalp and that day I shampoo twice. Leave it under a processing cap for Atleast 15 mins.

      Idelli Putri If it helps I use the murumuru butter and rose one and it really makes my hair feel great, I’m sure it’ll work just as well on any looser curls. It’s also color safe (specifically made for color treated hair I think because its definitely added vibrancy to my color lol) and doesn’t smell too crazy, but does smell really good!!

    Same thing happened to me in the beginning of my CG routine. I saw a vid of another RUclipsr and she said that she had used their products and her head started itching so bad. She went over the ingredients and found that one of the ingredients is actually a derivative of formaldehyde and one of the allergic reactions to it is severe itching and burning. So I did more research and found that that was true and stopped using it immediately. I took all of them back and got my money back. It was such a shame because it really made my hair look great.
    I just started using the SheaMoisture Yogurt masque and I love it. My hair isn’t anywhere near as frizzy as it was.
    P.S. I’m a pink girl too. What color do you use? My absolute fav is Special Effects Cupcake Pink or Atomic Pink and it lasts forever so you don’t have to keep redoing it.

      Manes by Mell here on YT says don't leave it wet that long. It could set you up for hygral fatigue. She uses a "hover method" for the most part, to get her hair mostly dry. Before I started my Curly Girl Journey, it only took 15 minutes tops for my whole head to dry (it was Very sparse!). Now, it'll still be moist after 3 hrs (I got about 80% to grow back in). So I've started warm/cool blow drying mine for a few minutes (10 mins tops!) only on the part that takes the longest (I pull the ends out of the way so the air can get to the scalp), to Almost dry, and then let it air dry the rest of the way. Works a treat and no frizz!
