When I do this, despite using the same product and method every time, sometimes it dries really wavy, sometimes it dries straight, and sometimes half and half. So I'm really confused 😭
When I used to bleach my hair with cheap drugstore stuff I never saw any curl or wave pattern but since my hair is healthier again it came back, maybe you have the same issue of damaged hair?
That's because your hair keeps the impressions from curling it and straightening it. Most likely this woman has straight hair and curls it on a regular basis with holding products that would still course waiting even on staright hair. Curl your hair for years? Go ahead and stop and you'll get the same until the damaged hair grows out. She's kinda misleading but what can you do when this "I found out I have wavy hair" trend. Not saying it can't be true, straightening can impress upon the hair just as curling can just need the long term to grow out the damaged hair. Then you'll see the actual pattern of you hair.
@@chelseathompson4167 she actually doesnt have straight hair, she has another video where she shows how she used to just brush her hair after her shower and it came out wavy still, but she thought it was just straight and poofy. also, it's actually possible for someone to have straight and wavy/curly hair because some people actually have some variations in hair follicle shapes all over their scalp. it could be from heat damage too tho.
my hair is half straight and half a bit wavy idk 😭 but when i was younger i did have wavy to curly hair. got them from my mom she has curly hair but growing up the curls went away for some reason, even my mom doesnt know how
I always just thought I had really unruly, straight hair. But I just now realized that when my hair is long, its easier to see the waves. Also I never noticed that my grandma has pretty wavy hair as well. So does my mom, but you can't see it because her hair is so short.
Try the smasters method, I think that’s what it’s called. 50 percent dry then use a little more gel with water to coat hair and scrunch in. Please look it up for more defined details but it helped me a lot with frizz
Had pin straight 1A hair for almost my entire life. Then in the past 2 years my hair has started to change. I stopped using heat on it, stopped coloring it and have been taking care of it for the past 3-4 years but only in the past 3 months has it DRASTICALLY changed. I have full on waves now when I put in my leave in conditioner and scrunch my hair it actually stays wavy, and even when I don’t scrunch I’ve noticed that the underneath section of hair towards the base of my neck is totally wavy. My hair is in the process of becoming wavy, and I believe it is due to aging-my hormones are changing and it’s impacted my hair. My mom used to be a hair stylist and said she thinks this is true. I am very excited!!! 😍
just guessing here, but hormones is only part of the issue-you changed some routines and probably products? idk-just recently saw some high level scientist explain the chemicals in many hair products are quite bad and that could have affected how your hair behaved
Yes our hair do change texture as we age. They usually get curlier. I too had pin straight hair to the degree that people always assumed I straightened my hair. Now in my twenties alone, they aren't as straight. Although they still can't be considered "wavy" Because they don't hold onto the pattern if I put any curly/wavy hair product. I think they will get full on curly in my 30s or 40s.
I always (at least twice a day) brush my hair when dry using a boar bristle brush, and my hair still has a slight 2A wave. So yeah, definitely not straight. The waves are stronger when I use conditioner, but even if I don't, they're not perfectly pin-straight.
Nope, especially if it is damaged. My hair is curly and bouncy, but the curla don't form without products and a bit of crunching. ( Yes I am sure I have curly hair due to the fact I had curly hair as a child)
This also depends on hair length. I have medium short hair with layers so it's a little harder for me to tell. In my opinion, a good way to tell is to look at your hair after you've been sweaty, in the rain, or you haven't washed in a while. For me, my small baby hairs will look like ringlets and my hair will have lumps. My sister's hair will stay the same after words though. I say this because for me, my hair is very dense and letting it air dry like this won't show the texture. If this doesn't work, look at pictures of your hair as a kid. I can see my hair forming waves and ringlets as a child, I also hated brushing it because it would look like a mess. Hair is weird and is never the same. Some days it'll look straight, other days it'll look like frizzy messy curls/waves. You can't expect it to look the same every day! Much love to you guys who are trying to understand their hair! (PS the whole4c, 3a, 2b type of chart isn't a good thing to base your hair off of. Hair isn't even all around the head and that chart isn't accurate to science or your environment either. Trial and error is your best bet, keep consistency to see results)
Okay I am very confused. I have _never_ curled, permed, or heat styled my hair. I was born with super straight, fine cornsilk blonde hair. Recently, as in the last 5-10 years or so (I just turned 40), have noticed that it has become markedly "less straight" and more unruly, more difficult to keep it looking sleek which should in theory be easy for my hair type, and I also notice very defined waves when my hair is _wet_ - as an experiment I simply towel-dried them and left them overnight. The waves were still there the next day, although nowhere *near* as bouncy and defined as this video. However, whenever I try to style my hair wavy, the style falls out within a few hours because my hair just cannot hold a style. So, essentially my hair is "too straight" to be wavy but "too wavy" to be straight. 😭
It’s def a change in your hormones I bet, that can cause curl patterns to change. It happened to me and my mom when we went through puberty, straight/wavy hair to really curly in the span of a year.
I'm a few years older than you and I've had the same thing happen to me. The person that said hormones is right - nearing (or in) perimenopause. It's also because our hair is becoming more gray, which seems to have it's own pattern altogether.
I was born with strajght hair and at 14 my hair went insanely curly. i was so frustrated and confused why I couldnt care for my hair the same anymore, so i can say definitively that hormones can affect ur hair. Also if you have grey hairs, they tend to be frizzy from the pack of melanin. My greys ate much more frizzy especially on humiid days. Im 35 and they just grew in the past year.
Oh my god.. I had long hair, the longest I've ever had it. But it was frizzy and flat, and I hated it, so I got a pixie cut. I always thought it was straight, but now I'm not too sure. I'm going to grow it out now and try some things out. Thanks for your videos!
I'm glad I discovered your channel! I recently discovered my "wave" bc I had to go "low poo" and no hair dryer due to a scalp infection, and it turned out regular shampoos were smoothing/weighting down my fine, thin hair. It turns out I have 2a on one side of my head and 2b on the other. I have been trying to research WAVY hair, but most of the info I find is for curls 2c or 3 and higher, so this channel having specifically WAVY info is great! Some of the curly advice is meant for ringlets or thicker, coarser hair. Waves are fickle! I'm still at the beginning of my journey bc I am hypersensitive to most hair products, so I am on the hunt for curl creams, gels, and mousse. Thank you for this info! Your hair looks amazing!
My hair dries with some super curly like my moms beautiful curls and some is straight and some is wavy like i dont know what to do because i dont want to ruin my hair by constantly straightening or curling it, but then i brush my hair out and i look like simba so🙂
My hair was actually thin and fine textured. Weirdly-had a bad reaction to some air pollution and ended up soaking my scalp and all in epsome salts and essential oils. It removed the pollution and helped my hair grow healthier. I discovered saturating my scalp in healthy oils such as coconut oil over night and washed out in the morning seemed to protect from the pollution. Little did I know, trying new oil combos, that my hair and scalp needed those nutrients and now have more normal hair and for sure natural curls (the kind I used to pay big bucks for at the salon!).
omg stoppp I’ve been trying to find a video like this for so long because I’ve thought I’ve had curly hair for a long time but my mom won’t believe me and it runs in my family thank you so much
I had a slight pattern so I bought some curl cream, mousse and gel, and it was pretty wavy but not what I wished for. I bought a diffuser and my hair now is insanely curling after following ur tutorials. Thank so so much for this Jesus loves you 🫶🏽
Thank you! I have wavy hair, but now it is so long I thought the weight pulled the pattern out! It sounds silly, but it is so long that it's very heavy! Turns out I probably just need to change to lightweight products -- maybe Maui's lightweight? Giving it a try soon!
I can’t stand when I see girls with wavy hair in a curly hair group saying that they have curls. Some of them have clearly straight hair. I do not know what they are seeing at home. Your hair is beautiful by the way.

@@justanotherjessica 3A/B over here and I'm sick of it too. We're really gatekeeping hair texture now? Of course it's you guys that are getting the worst of it, but it's really exhausting to see how rabid certain people get over _hair_ of all things. And hair that doesn't even belong to them!
Make sure, for this test, you let your hair completely dry out before making an assessment. Her hair is still damp at the end. At that dampness i still have a lot of wave, but bone dry i have barely any, like a 2a.
I did the CGM when it was really big just for shits and giggles, I had five gorgeous waves forming when wet but as soon as it dried it turned into the straightest hair I've ever had, lol. However I've always struggled with really frizzy and fragile hair around and behind my ears I just assumed it was hard water/regular wet curling damage (it's probably damaged though) but since my last hair appointment I decided to pull my baby hair in front of my ears before it dries because the stylist did that when blow-drying and I think it looks really cute and for some reason I manage to force it into a perfect curl🤷
I'll definitely try this, this whole time I thought my hair is straight but they always end up looking super puffy no matter what I do, so I'll try that and see
It's not just a matter of following a trend; I finally, FINALLY know why my hair was so "difficult." For me, allowing my hair to dry without styling it straight (45 minutes of blowdrying + flat iron) or wavy (20-30 minutes of styling and diffusing) means that it will simply dry BIG, frizzy, dry and utterly uneven. My hair is not curly but it has also never been straight.
when i was younger i had dead flat straight shiny hair, but once puberty started to hit my hair would get puffy once i brushed it so i only brushed my hair in the shower once wet. My sister has curly hair so i started using her products and i also started scrunching my hair and it got wavier and wavier! Now i have very wavy hair!
The hair around my hairline, my sideburns and right behind my ears have always been like really curly/wavy, and when I brush my hair out, it all becomes so poofy. But when wet, the rest of my hair doesn't show any particular pattern (some bits are pin straight, others are a bit wavy) I don't know what to do
When I was younger, I used to brush my hair while it was wet every time and that made my hair look straight. Then when I stopped and just let it dry before detangling, is when I noticed I had wavy hair (I didn't scrunch at all). If this doesn't work for you, give it a second shot with my trick just to make sure.
how does your hair look so pretty with no product? my hair is wavy and I put some products and airdry it but it never looks good 😭 the day after i wash my hair it already looks horrible. Do you have any tips?
Im so glad I found you. Ive been so curious about my hair lately, I have straight frizzy hair. The strands the frizzy up are curly strands and make me wonder if I have potential for at least wavy hair. My whole family has tight curls that I can just wrap around my finger! Just to mention, my background is filipina but my hair texture silky smooth or anything. If I comb it out while its wet itll dry frizzy with slight texture but never tried a routine to encourage a pattern! I’ll have to try it out
the is so true, like when i was younger i’va always had very wavy/curly hair, then at the end of elementary school, when my dad was no longer drying my hair the got straight and frizzy to a crazy level, two years ago i started stopping to brush my hair every morning and scrunching them with a towel after washing them. it took 2 years to got them curly and healthy again but i finally did it
Can someone please please tell me why when I was really you g my hair was SO curly but now you can barely tell it’s wavy??? Please I’ve been wondering for so long and is there a way I can get it back to those really curly curls????
when my hair air dries it becomes so frizzy even when i put hair oil in when its still wet... i have one "curl" "wave" that frames my face and the rest of my hair is frizzy and slightly wavy. Even when i don't touch it when its air drying it freaks out and poofs/frizzes and has kinky feeling strands. I wonder if i have wavy hair but i cant even tell, my hair doesn't like to be curled by an iron and straightens when i do even with hairspray. I tried the scrunch method just to see if there's a pattern and its a verryy loose wave, and it doesn't dry nicely by air. it frizzes up like i stated above. BUT it straightens out more when i use a dryer. sometimes still is frizzy by that. my hair doesnt react the same each time i do it. I am confused on what my hair type is, its like straight but not at the same time.
The back of My hair, starting at the crown has loose spiral curl. When I scrunch the straight wet hair it all Curls right up with a loose spiral hair. When it dries without product the back is the only area that stays curled. The side have 3 big dips of waves. Moroccan oil curl cream doesn’t even keep a curl or a wave.
omg…if I brush my hair when wet, it’ll immediately start to frizz around my crown. Most of the hair from my scalp to my temples is pin-straight. Then it gets weird: some parts at the back of my head will be completely straight, and then the closer the hair is to my face, the more it becomes a mix of straight and awkwardly wavy hair with a more defined wave hidden underneath. the funny thing is that the two small front pieces of my hair tend to have a really defined wave pattern and the wispy hairs by my ears are perfect ringlets that always curl back up no matter how hard I try to straighten them (heat or gel). But!…my hair won’t hold a single curl if I try to use curling irons without an entire bottle of hairspray 😂 does anyone else have this awful hair?! I have no idea wtf it’s trying to do and no idea where to start with caring for it! I’ve been caring for it the way you care for straight hair and I’m beginning to think I’ve been making it worse for decades 💀
That’s how I feel too! My hair is so poofy/frizzy when I brush it after a shower and it air dries. I used to have curls like you described at my sideburns/ears. When I try to treat it as ‘curly’ it looks messy, but when I treat it straight it’s sooo frizzy and annoying. My hair holds when I curl it, but only for maybe 4 hours 😭
Both my parents have curly hair. My dad's Mexican and my mom is Moor, Cherokee, and Italian. And I have family including some of my ancestors with REALLY straight Cherokee hair. My hair has always been extremely straight. It would stick up like I got struck by lightning straight. Granted it was always a buzzcut before. Now it's a bit longer, experimenting with a drape and it's starting to frizz up. Maybe I have wavy hair?
So, I just discovered my hair is actually wavy! I’ve tried your routine & it’s a game changer BUT - idk what to do with my bangs? I have brow-length straight cut bangs and they look insane after doing all this 😂. Any tips on how to deal with them while still using the bowl-plop-diffuse method? I have a five-head so bangs are a necessity
Your hair looks amazing!! We would love it if you would collaborate with us as we have some breath taking products for you to try out. DM us on how we can work together!
someone please help because my hair is naturally straight but when i come out the shower its curly and i use mouse and curly products but when i brush it , it goes back to straight then goes poofy how do i make them defined??
Oh my hair is definitely wavy as a default state but also weird I let it dry and sometimes it's mostly straight or with light waves but sometimes half my head is in borderline ringlets while another bit is straight and the rest is strong waves so I have no idea what it's doing most of the time and it's definitely gotten less straight as I got older (as a little kid it was dead straight then it got a little flick at about 5 or 6, 8 or 9 I got some soft waves and by 12 I had definite waves but some straight days and the occasional little ringlets and by 17-18 I had waves or a few ringlets probably 99% of the time and that 1% straight is from the few bits that decided to be straight every once at a while, I don't remember having full straight days since 16/17)
I have a mixed pattern. Some strands are 1, others are 2A, and a few pieces 2B. If I let it airdry even doing like in the video or even using products, se strands are going to be super straight
Actually this isn't always accurate, for heat damaged hair, even if you try this your hair will end up straight even when it's supposed to be wavy/ curly. So I would try to restore your hair with something before trying to see what its natural shape is.
All my family have straight thick hair like me . When i get out of the shower and towel dry its kinda wavy maybe cuz i curl my hair every now and then. When its air dried its kinda wavy but when i blow dry its straight. So is my hair straight.
I still can't tell if my hair is wavy or not because when it's wet there are waves, but it becomes straight in a span of an hour or so after being fully dry and it becomes more frizzy when brushed dry as opposed to wet
Honestly now that I’ve started to do all the routines when I brush out my hair it automatically gets wavy. Don’t even have to scrunch it although I do when I get out of the shower just to make sure my product spreads evenly but I think now that I care for them my hair is used to doing what it should
I’ve always know I had wavy hair because my mom has really wavy hair almost curly and I had curly hair when I was younger but I always just brushed it really strait and didn’t do anything else and stopped thinking about it but when I divided I wanted wavy hair I used a very simple super low product routine like this and my hair is fairly wavy
My mom has very curly hair but my dad is Asian and (used to) has straight hair. I always thought I had straight hair but I’ll try this out and let you guys know if it’s straight or not
@dermo Some wavy hair is quite fine and gets weighed down easily so scrunching with a towel helps especially if damaged. Sophie's hair actually does dry wavy without doing anything. Also, drying your straight hair does not give you waves, it will just make your hair fly out in several directions.
@dermo most people have some form of texture, it's rare to have perfectly straight hair. Curly haired people also style it this way with mouse, scrunching and diffusing to make the curls tighter. Heavy products, brushing and water will make wavy hair way more straight. If I apply conditioner my hair will be straight, heavy and stuck to my head. If I brush it wet it will stay a little straight. I have frizz, if I brush dry it becomes puffy. If I just air dry it has some waves and bends. If I put mousse and diffuse I get tighter waves. My hair is fine but wavy so they can easily be straitened and done wavy too
My hair has a gentle curl when I get out of the shower and I know it's not from knots. My conditioner is fantastic. I squeezed a lot of water out, brushed and then put it in a towel to dry. Makes me wonder.
I have always had hair that looked straight my whole life I think, but nowadays it curls up a bit when I let it go natural, I’m trying this rn and I’ll update later once it’s dry. So far I scrunched my hair twice and it immediately accepted the wave pattern. Edit: Most of the wave fell out and I just hate my hair so much I don’t know what to do. If my hair is going to be straight then I want it to actually look good but it doesn’t and I hate it.
for some reason my hair will be wavy one day and straight the next or half of my hair will be wavy the other half either straight or a little wave my hair isnt damaged at all i dont think, i use heat products rarely i air dry my hair i literally dont know what my hair type is 😭

you can also tell when your using conditioner this may not be for everyone but my waves definitely show when I’m putting my conditioner in my hair.
You are blessed with naturally beautiful hair 🙂
I do wonder if mine might be wavy but my hair is so long I think the weight pulls down any pattern
try thinning shears it should help with the weight
My hair was actually thin and fine textured. Weirdly-had a bad reaction to some air pollution and ended up soaking my scalp and all in epsome salts and essential oils. It removed the pollution and helped my hair grow healthier. I discovered saturating my scalp in healthy oils such as coconut oil over night and washed out in the morning seemed to protect from the pollution. Little did I know, trying new oil combos, that my hair and scalp needed those nutrients and now have more normal hair and for sure natural curls (the kind I used to pay big bucks for at the salon!).
omg stoppp I’ve been trying to find a video like this for so long because I’ve thought I’ve had curly hair for a long time but my mom won’t believe me and it runs in my family thank you so much
I had a slight pattern so I bought some curl cream, mousse and gel, and it was pretty wavy but not what I wished for. I bought a diffuser and my hair now is insanely curling after following ur tutorials. Thank so so much for this Jesus loves you 🫶🏽
Thank you! I have wavy hair, but now it is so long I thought the weight pulled the pattern out! It sounds silly, but it is so long that it's very heavy! Turns out I probably just need to change to lightweight products -- maybe Maui's lightweight? Giving it a try soon!
I can’t stand when I see girls with wavy hair in a curly hair group saying that they have curls. Some of them have clearly straight hair. I do not know what they are seeing at home. Your hair is beautiful by the way.
thank you so much for the tut!helped a lot!

I'm so sick of the curl/wave war. No hair texture is better than another and people need to stop trying to tear each other down.
@@justanotherjessica I agree
I have some straight pieces, wavy and curly pieces & I am learning to embrace it
@@justanotherjessica 3A/B over here and I'm sick of it too. We're really gatekeeping hair texture now? Of course it's you guys that are getting the worst of it, but it's really exhausting to see how rabid certain people get over _hair_ of all things. And hair that doesn't even belong to them!
Your hair really really pretty
Make sure, for this test, you let your hair completely dry out before making an assessment. Her hair is still damp at the end. At that dampness i still have a lot of wave, but bone dry i have barely any, like a 2a.
You are so pretty !!
Aw thank you!!
I did the CGM when it was really big just for shits and giggles, I had five gorgeous waves forming when wet but as soon as it dried it turned into the straightest hair I've ever had, lol. However I've always struggled with really frizzy and fragile hair around and behind my ears I just assumed it was hard water/regular wet curling damage (it's probably damaged though) but since my last hair appointment I decided to pull my baby hair in front of my ears before it dries because the stylist did that when blow-drying and I think it looks really cute and for some reason I manage to force it into a perfect curl🤷
OMG I KNEW MY HAIR WAS WAVY
I'll definitely try this, this whole time I thought my hair is straight but they always end up looking super puffy no matter what I do, so I'll try that and see
I have your hair style but more big. Nice to see something similar !
ahh, just what I needed to see! Have a bunch of products in a basket but will try this tomorrow first. Very helpful!
This is what my hair looks like when I air dry it!! OMG I’m trying this.
You look beautiful and gorgeous! ❤️❤️❤️
It's not just a matter of following a trend; I finally, FINALLY know why my hair was so "difficult." For me, allowing my hair to dry without styling it straight (45 minutes of blowdrying + flat iron) or wavy (20-30 minutes of styling and diffusing) means that it will simply dry BIG, frizzy, dry and utterly uneven. My hair is not curly but it has also never been straight.
Thanks for this vid xx
when i was younger i had dead flat straight shiny hair, but once puberty started to hit my hair would get puffy once i brushed it so i only brushed my hair in the shower once wet. My sister has curly hair so i started using her products and i also started scrunching my hair and it got wavier and wavier! Now i have very wavy hair!
Same here, when I was a kid I had super straight, fine hair, but once I hit puberty it got a lot thicker and I realized it was wavy.
I was always a hair enthusiast, I never had much curl pattern in my teens and early 20s but now I have super gorgeous 2c/3a hair 🥰
I love this video!!! I'm one of those people who is too lazy to apply product everyday and I feel seen 😂 most of the time my hair just looks like this
The hair around my hairline, my sideburns and right behind my ears have always been like really curly/wavy, and when I brush my hair out, it all becomes so poofy. But when wet, the rest of my hair doesn't show any particular pattern (some bits are pin straight, others are a bit wavy) I don't know what to do
Same problem
When I was younger, I used to brush my hair while it was wet every time and that made my hair look straight. Then when I stopped and just let it dry before detangling, is when I noticed I had wavy hair (I didn't scrunch at all). If this doesn't work for you, give it a second shot with my trick just to make sure.
how does your hair look so pretty with no product? my hair is wavy and I put some products and airdry it but it never looks good 😭 the day after i wash my hair it already looks horrible. Do you have any tips?
Im so glad I found you. Ive been so curious about my hair lately, I have straight frizzy hair. The strands the frizzy up are curly strands and make me wonder if I have potential for at least wavy hair. My whole family has tight curls that I can just wrap around my finger! Just to mention, my background is filipina but my hair texture silky smooth or anything. If I comb it out while its wet itll dry frizzy with slight texture but never tried a routine to encourage a pattern! I’ll have to try it out
Both my parents have really wavy hair so i will try this and see if i do aswell!
I’m pretty sure everyone can do this. I been doing this since high school like 8yrs ago
the is so true, like when i was younger i’va always had very wavy/curly hair, then at the end of elementary school, when my dad was no longer drying my hair the got straight and frizzy to a crazy level, two years ago i started stopping to brush my hair every morning and scrunching them with a towel after washing them. it took 2 years to got them curly and healthy again but i finally did it
Wow you have NICE hair!
This is how my hair is when I scrunch it, it’s wavy but I don’t have any products for it and I don’t think I really need them
We not gonna talk about how pretty she is 💕
Can someone please please tell me why when I was really you g my hair was SO curly but now you can barely tell it’s wavy??? Please I’ve been wondering for so long and is there a way I can get it back to those really curly curls????
Thank you for that video! I have really curly hair so it is always so big on the morning
when my hair air dries it becomes so frizzy even when i put hair oil in when its still wet... i have one "curl" "wave" that frames my face and the rest of my hair is frizzy and slightly wavy. Even when i don't touch it when its air drying it freaks out and poofs/frizzes and has kinky feeling strands.
I wonder if i have wavy hair but i cant even tell, my hair doesn't like to be curled by an iron and straightens when i do even with hairspray.
I tried the scrunch method just to see if there's a pattern and its a verryy loose wave, and it doesn't dry nicely by air. it frizzes up like i stated above. BUT it straightens out more when i use a dryer. sometimes still is frizzy by that. my hair doesnt react the same each time i do it.
I am confused on what my hair type is, its like straight but not at the same time.
YOU HAVE MY DREAM HAIR OMH
girl thank you so much! i have wavy hair and i live in a family where everyone elses hair is straight so thank you for your vids! xoxo 💗💗
I am going to try this!!! I hope I have wavy hair!!!
Tysm this really help me
You are so pretty
How I wish I had her hair 😭😭😭😭😭😭 imagine letting it hair dry perfect like that!!!
Omg tysm I always had wavy hair but I guess I was doing something wrong once I tried this my hair was gorgeos😮💨💅🏼
My hair is so thick and heavy that it weighs down the waves and then getts fluffy when dry 😅
The back of My hair, starting at the crown has loose spiral curl. When I scrunch the straight wet hair it all Curls right up with a loose spiral hair. When it dries without product the back is the only area that stays curled. The side have 3 big dips of waves. Moroccan oil curl cream doesn’t even keep a curl or a wave.
omg…if I brush my hair when wet, it’ll immediately start to frizz around my crown. Most of the hair from my scalp to my temples is pin-straight. Then it gets weird: some parts at the back of my head will be completely straight, and then the closer the hair is to my face, the more it becomes a mix of straight and awkwardly wavy hair with a more defined wave hidden underneath. the funny thing is that the two small front pieces of my hair tend to have a really defined wave pattern and the wispy hairs by my ears are perfect ringlets that always curl back up no matter how hard I try to straighten them (heat or gel). But!…my hair won’t hold a single curl if I try to use curling irons without an entire bottle of hairspray 😂 does anyone else have this awful hair?! I have no idea wtf it’s trying to do and no idea where to start with caring for it! I’ve been caring for it the way you care for straight hair and I’m beginning to think I’ve been making it worse for decades 💀
That’s how I feel too! My hair is so poofy/frizzy when I brush it after a shower and it air dries. I used to have curls like you described at my sideburns/ears. When I try to treat it as ‘curly’ it looks messy, but when I treat it straight it’s sooo frizzy and annoying. My hair holds when I curl it, but only for maybe 4 hours 😭
i don’t brush my hair when it’s wet anymore but once i brush it the next day it’s back to my regular kind of poofy straight hair
Both my parents have curly hair. My dad's Mexican and my mom is Moor, Cherokee, and Italian. And I have family including some of my ancestors with REALLY straight Cherokee hair. My hair has always been extremely straight. It would stick up like I got struck by lightning straight. Granted it was always a buzzcut before. Now it's a bit longer, experimenting with a drape and it's starting to frizz up. Maybe I have wavy hair?
Well that's my Wolf cut saved thank you :D
So, I just discovered my hair is actually wavy! I’ve tried your routine & it’s a game changer BUT - idk what to do with my bangs? I have brow-length straight cut bangs and they look insane after doing all this 😂. Any tips on how to deal with them while still using the bowl-plop-diffuse method? I have a five-head so bangs are a necessity
Not her but maybe go to a salon that specializes in cirly haor and have them cut you some proper curly bangs.
^ I have the same problem lol. My hair is wavy, but my bangs lie flat and straight or they poof out.
mine dried with a few waves in each strand! i always had pin straight hair! this time i didnt brish it while it dried i think that made a difference 😭
Thankyou so much
Your hair looks amazing!! We would love it if you would collaborate with us as we have some breath taking products for you to try out. DM us on how we can work together!
I love how I’ve probably had my 3a hair my whole entire life but I’ve always brushed it out when I was a lot younger 😭
Omg thank you so much
someone please help because my hair is naturally straight but when i come out the shower its curly and i use mouse and curly products but when i brush it , it goes back to straight then goes poofy how do i make them defined??
This is the loosest form of wave, and if I had to work that hard to get just a bend, I wouldn’t bother, lol.
Oh my hair is definitely wavy as a default state but also weird I let it dry and sometimes it's mostly straight or with light waves but sometimes half my head is in borderline ringlets while another bit is straight and the rest is strong waves so I have no idea what it's doing most of the time and it's definitely gotten less straight as I got older (as a little kid it was dead straight then it got a little flick at about 5 or 6, 8 or 9 I got some soft waves and by 12 I had definite waves but some straight days and the occasional little ringlets and by 17-18 I had waves or a few ringlets probably 99% of the time and that 1% straight is from the few bits that decided to be straight every once at a while, I don't remember having full straight days since 16/17)
I have a mixed pattern. Some strands are 1, others are 2A, and a few pieces 2B. If I let it airdry even doing like in the video or even using products, se strands are going to be super straight
Actually this isn't always accurate, for heat damaged hair, even if you try this your hair will end up straight even when it's supposed to be wavy/ curly. So I would try to restore your hair with something before trying to see what its natural shape is.
sighs...mine just dries up straight😭
All my family have straight thick hair like me . When i get out of the shower and towel dry its kinda wavy maybe cuz i curl my hair every now and then. When its air dried its kinda wavy but when i blow dry its straight. So is my hair straight.
I still can't tell if my hair is wavy or not because when it's wet there are waves, but it becomes straight in a span of an hour or so after being fully dry and it becomes more frizzy when brushed dry as opposed to wet
Honestly now that I’ve started to do all the routines when I brush out my hair it automatically gets wavy. Don’t even have to scrunch it although I do when I get out of the shower just to make sure my product spreads evenly but I think now that I care for them my hair is used to doing what it should
My hair is wavy and fluffy from the back so yh 💀
I’ve always know I had wavy hair because my mom has really wavy hair almost curly and I had curly hair when I was younger but I always just brushed it really strait and didn’t do anything else and stopped thinking about it but when I divided I wanted wavy hair I used a very simple super low product routine like this and my hair is fairly wavy
My mom has very curly hair but my dad is Asian and (used to) has straight hair. I always thought I had straight hair but I’ll try this out and let you guys know if it’s straight or not
Its crazy to me that all my life I was told i have straight hair.
@dermo Some wavy hair is quite fine and gets weighed down easily so scrunching with a towel helps especially if damaged.
Sophie's hair actually does dry wavy without doing anything.
Also, drying your straight hair does not give you waves, it will just make your hair fly out in several directions.
@dermo most people have some form of texture, it's rare to have perfectly straight hair. Curly haired people also style it this way with mouse, scrunching and diffusing to make the curls tighter. Heavy products, brushing and water will make wavy hair way more straight.
If I apply conditioner my hair will be straight, heavy and stuck to my head. If I brush it wet it will stay a little straight. I have frizz, if I brush dry it becomes puffy. If I just air dry it has some waves and bends. If I put mousse and diffuse I get tighter waves. My hair is fine but wavy so they can easily be straitened and done wavy too
My hair has a gentle curl when I get out of the shower and I know it's not from knots. My conditioner is fantastic. I squeezed a lot of water out, brushed and then put it in a towel to dry. Makes me wonder.
Everyone in my family has curly hair except me… *I think*
My hair is thin, “straight” & puffy for sure. Always has been.
I love your hair
I have always had hair that looked straight my whole life I think, but nowadays it curls up a bit when I let it go natural, I’m trying this rn and I’ll update later once it’s dry. So far I scrunched my hair twice and it immediately accepted the wave pattern.
Edit: Most of the wave fell out and I just hate my hair so much I don’t know what to do. If my hair is going to be straight then I want it to actually look good but it doesn’t and I hate it.
This is exactly how my hair looks then when I brush once it’s dry it goes all frizzy does that mean I have curly hair helllpp 😂
what about not puffy hair but static hair?
BRO I ALWAYS THOUGHT I HAD STRAIGHT HAIR UNTILL I MOVED MY HAIR INSTANTLY TURNED WAVEYYYY😂❤
She said that sometimes it may be extremely frizzy if you have wavy hair and don’t use products, does anyone know any hair products that are good?
thank you!
I might try this because I have very frizzy, thick hair while everyone else in my family (except my dad, he’s bald) has straight, silky thinner hair.
You did your dad dirty 💀
for some reason my hair will be wavy one day and straight the next or half of my hair will be wavy the other half either straight or a little wave my hair isnt damaged at all i dont think, i use heat products rarely i air dry my hair i literally dont know what my hair type is 😭
