Hi everyone !! ❤️ thank you for watching !! I wanted to explain something I explained horribly in this video and a lot of you are asking questions about. when I was explaining the Shea moisture protein power treatment I made it appear to be a dupe for a cheap bond builder. That’s not what I was trying to insinuate. My apologies ! I was simply trying to explain I get the same results of bringing spring back into my hair with the protein power treatment as well as the olaplex bond building treatment. I get the same results from both. So while I get the same results, they are not similar ingredient wise. While they both have protein, the olaplex product is an actual bond builder. my apologies for the confusion 💛💛💛💛💛😘 love you , thank you for watching XOXO
The "flip hair every 20 mins was worth the time to keep watching. I have 3 heads of hair on my head, it is so thick . Takes forever to dry, do not want to use heat, flipping will help
@@bellajaid I found it really heavy for my hair, Hair Food has been amazing for my hair after recently switching from trying shea moisture and it's at Walmart too which is convenient.
I'm 70 years old. I have always had a full head of wavy curls so my struggle has been for many, many years to combat the "frizz", and I live in Florida, can anyone say humidity! I stumbled across your videos and I am soooo happy because India you have given me many new ides. Thank you so much...my hair actually is starting to look as good and as thick as it did 30 years ago. You are such a doll, so pretty along with a great personality. I shall keep watching you so keep telling it like it is....(

Knocking at the door of my 6th decade and just discovered that I have had curly hair all along! I've been binge watching your videos to try and catch up. The holy grail list is going to save me boatloads of trial and error money!
Love the video! I’ve got 2b/2c hair and have decided to try going curly again. Your info has been super helpful!! And I am all for a Sister Sister reboot!! I’ve been making my husband watch the series with me!
I'm so glad India makes videos about what products she uses. I have hair that is very similar to her's and for a long time I was unable to care for it properly because I didn't know how. Now, without a doubt, I use most of what she uses or recommends because I know if it works in her hair, it will work in mine. Saves having had to go through so many products on my own. You've got a gorgeous head of hair India!
I've been searching for a content creator with a similar hair type to mine and I FINALLY found that with you!! It's been such a struggle trying to take styling advice from people with tighter curl patterns, and I'm so happy to have found somewhere I can get more relevant tips and tricks
Hey miss India! I recently started my curly hair journey, and was really confused at what to do for my hair. My mom started me on my journey, buttttttttttt, she follows all of the directions in the curly girl method book. She told me I didn’t need anything but the oil on my head and a spray bottle for my hair, and that I shouldn’t use shampoo anymore🤨 As a 15 year old girl with oily hair that I am told “smells” when I don’t wash it, the no shampoo law, was one I wasn’t going to follow. So, with no one else to turn to, I turned to youtube! That’s when I found your channel! I was so glad I was able to find a person who both believed in God and was an expert in curls! I was very excited! I went to the store and bought the Shea shampoo and conditioner and the Aussie gel, and also through in the microfiber towel😉 Thank you so much for starting this channel! Your humor and wisdom on curls has meant the world to me! P:S I was wondering if you would do a video on how to apply gel? Thanks
I've never heard of the no shampoo rule lol, what would it even do to help your hair? Shampoo gets rid of dirt, products, and oil in your hair, so I'm not sure what the pro to not using it would be.
I FREAKING LOVE the Not Your Mother's Curl Talk products!! The whole line is awesome and works great for my fine, wavy hair! I also really like the SM Protein Power treatment.
Yes please do a haircut! I have been embracing my white woman fro since lockdown and I always wimp out when I go to the hairdresser and get a style cut where I have to blow dry and straighten but it’s so thick and curly it takes me an hour to style it. It kills my soul! I just want to have hair I can walk out of the door with and I know nothing about curly hair cuts. So please def film it xx
In terms of protein treatments, the Shea moisture one is what I always have in the shower. I use a little bit like once a week with my normal conditioner. The curlsmith one is like your once a month protein kick or when you notice your hair is over moisturized. OLAPLEX is the saving grace for actually rebuilding bonds, need a haircut or noticing more split ends. I have all three but they have different uses for me.
I love the Manuka honey protein treatment it really has helped. Thank you. I would love to see your hair cut. We have similar hair but your cut is getting you that beautiful volume. Thanks for posting
Yes to the haircut video please! My hair has gotten so long & wild during quarantine, I need some inspiration for a fresh cut! Oh and I love It’s a 10 Miracle Leave-In!
This may be my absolute favorite video you've ever done. Why? Because it was SUPER easy and realistic (meaning not crazy time-consuming!) Saving this one for sure. Thank you so much and big hug from Louisiana!
I’ve noticed some Maui moisture products contain isopropyl alcohol. Can you look into that for us? I know the difference between fatty and drying alcohols but isn’t isopropyl alcohol rubbing alcohol?
@@ellag2426 it’s in the very end of the ingredients. like last 3 ingredients and it’s very odd by that can dry your hair out but I have to be careful using too much that product Bc it’ll make my hair too hydrated to where it looks greasy ! so I really don’t find that to be the case. I don’t know why they include it since there’s hardly any in it
I’ve looked everywhere for the Maui combing cream. Cvs does not carry it anymore. And Amazon has it for over $50 for 8 ounces. Any idea where I can find it? Or what can I use in place of it??
Besides your obvious beauty...(I mean, cmon- you are the epitome of ocean eyes), you seem like such a cool, down to earth, chill chick. And that's what really shines through about you!! That's why I'm subscribed and come back... because i feel like im hanging with my homie!
This is just the sweetest comment ever 💛💛💛I genuinely appreciate it so much. I prefer watching videos that are chatty and not as “produced”. so I try to make my videos like how I would be if I was talking to my best friend, NAjah (: so it means a lot you feel that way girl 🥰🥰🥰🥰
India finger combs clumps completely out and somehow still ends up with perfect clumps after drying. Have no idea how to achieve this wizardry except to grow about 10x more hair than I have.
My product that I can't live without: Jessicurl Spiralicious gel. It's my one-and-done styler. Other than shampoo and conditioner, nothing else goes in my hair on wash day--no leave-in, cream, mousse, setting mist, oil...nada.
@@kimberlysmithey319 I have mostly 2b curls, with a few 2a and 2c clumps interspersed. My hair is very fine, of medium density and high porosity (gets wet and dries VERY fast).
Thank youuuu for not using products that are $30+ EACH I have to skip those videos cuz I’m only 17 and DONT have that type of money for hair products. Love ur energy and obviously love the hair results💗🧡💗
I’m 63 and don’t have money for those expensive hair products. I think it’s kind of silly to spend crazy amounts of money on something that immediately gets washed down the drain. I’ve used really expensive products in the past, and drugstore gets better all the time, so I’m sticking with drugstore. It also allows me to try more options.
I am so with you on the Shea Moisture hydrate and repair protein power treatment… It’s one of the few things I’ve used that actually really helped detangle my hair more easily. It was a godsend!
How does my hair look exactly like yours when wet, but as soon as it dries its like 'nahhh you just gonna have a poofy mess' It's honestly a conspiracy, im sure XD
try to find out if your hair is imbalanced in moisture or protein (many videos on RUclips explain everything) and try to make sure its balanced, don't be touching your hair while it dries when diffusing (if you are ) try the hovering method by (Manes by Mell) here on RUclips and i hope everything works out :)
@@blossomorchard-pine1127 I’m pretty sure I have high(?) porosity, it doesn’t take much to wet my hair, but it also just doesn’t seem to like anything 🤣
I found that curl talk shampoo really irritated my eyes because of bangs. However, carol's daughter cannot get enough rants and raves from me and I loved the way my bangs "behaved" and still had a bit of bounce to them. I've heard other people say that Carol's Daughter can be stripping for them, but I found it really helped my hair look less flat and greasy this winter.
Thank you for this. We have very similar hair - length, texture, curl pattern - but my hair never looks as good as yours. I didn’t use the exact same products, but just using the methods with my products made a huge difference.
India, you are SOOO beautiful!! I just followed this routine today and the results were amazing!! Could you do an updated video on what you do to your hair for days 2, 3, 4 etc? And a review on your favorite dry shampoos!! Thank you so much!!
Should wait 3 days after getting highlights to shampoo, and 2 weeks before deep conditioning. The color needs time to set. You can use a mask as a conditioner but don’t let it sit more than 2 minutes for the first couple weeks after getting color. It opens your cuticle and lets the color out.
Even though it's a good amount of steps (which if you have bleached and wavy hair, you kinda have to do quite a bit of work), but I love how you make it feel very doable! I'll sometimes watch other hair routine videos and feel so overwhelmed but I keep coming back to yours because it makes me feel like it's all doable! Thank you!!
@@indiabatson26 I'm voting for a haircut video too. You routine works pretty well on my hair but I haven't done a "curly" cut and I'd like to know the words to use to get what I want (higher the hair.... and whatnot :P ) and thanks for sharing :)
Your eyes are gorgeous and the way you do your makeup really makes them stand out, but in such a natural way. I’m going to see if you have any makeup tutorials, but if not, please make some. 🦋💜
I NEED to know if you brush your hair after washing out the conditioner? Do you brush it in the shower, out of the shower or not at all? If anyone else knows please let me know!
I know this is an old video but I just wanted to say I have been struggling with my wavy hair since I started wearing it wavy a year ago. I finally decided to try Not Your Mother's Curl Talk Sculpting Gel at your suggestion and I AM HAVING THE BEST HAIR DAY EVER. This stuff is truly holy grail!
Thanks for the tips for wavy hair! I am a mix between 2A and 2B. I've been trying out the CGM for 6 months now and getting a little discouraged. My middle layers have taken to the process very well but my top/crown layers and around the nape of my neck want to flatten and straighten out. I'll try switching up my products but any other advice you can throw my way I'd very much appreciate it!
THISSSSS! that was me a couple years ago. i found that the top/crown layers, and area around my neck straighten out quickly, but i found that a curl cream or mousse worked perfectly for that!
African-american hairstylusts understand curly hair like nobody else. I've been following a bunch of them for years and they are amazing. You should try if you haven't.
So Glad I found this channel! Watched so many curly hair videos that just wasn’t working for me until now (I have hair very similar to yours, fine, high density, bleached) and just tried your routine and finally got some volume in my hair!
Sheamoisture is such an awesome brand. I am definitely going to try the Manuka honey and yogurt mask next time I go to my beauty supply store. What blush do you wear? It makes your blue eyes pop. Stunning!
Love this video, I'm pretty sure you are one of the only people on the internet I've seen with my hair type. Your hair is really beautiful, I also have to comment on how gorgeous your eyes are!
GIRL! I was literally going to ask for this EXACT video (unsponsored)!!! 🤩 💗 I use the same Shea Moisture protein hair mask. I have also really been loving the HiBar moisture shampoo and conditioning bars, not your mothers deep conditioner, Maui Moisture leave in conditioner and of course Not Your Mothers Curl Mousse and gel. I use Badger Balms Argon Hair Oil, it’s nice.
I HAVE to say thank u so much!!! My hair finally gets good day after , day after day and it’s all because of u, if u could see the photos omg so gorgeous thank uuuuuuuu
Your eyes and hair and personality 😍😍😍 I wish my hair was like that. 😩 It can’t make up it’s mind. 🥺 some days it super wavey like it wants to curl other days it tries to be straight. My hair has multiple personalities. 😩 😭 Also so refreshing to see you using affordable products. 🙌🏼
I used to highlight my hair as blonde as you are. I also had almost the exact texture & curl pattern as well as amount of volume and the illusion of thickness. Started with foils many years ago and then changed to balayage. I haven't done any of these treatments to my hair in over a year. Somewhat due to covid and also due to finances. Now my hair is it's natural color. A much darker blonde. The curl pattern has changed tho! I've noticed it''s not as fluffy and gets weighted down quicker. I'll have to try those lighter products you mentioned OR get back to the salon and get my highlights back again. This video makes me miss it a lot!
I love Shea's apple cider hair mask. My hair soaks it up to the point it starts to curl even while soaking wet (rare for a wavy head in the 2c/3a area)
Girl that curl talk os no joke. In trying my curly journey (too much info so much work I'm overloaded). Currently I'm listening to this while rosemary oiling my hair and I have fine hair but a LOT of it and that shit my this feel FULL
Protein treatments and bond builders are actually different! They can and should be used in conjunction with each other. The bond builders attach the proteins together, they don’t add proteins. So for max efficiency you should use both. Just so you know!
Girl, you are so from the South. "The bigger the hair, the closer the God" is so southern! As always you are just so adorable. I am intrigued that Maui Moisture has a gel. I can't wait to try it. I use all the products you featured except the Maui Moisture cream. I LOVE the SM 100% Coconut conditioner AND shampoo. They are perhaps my favorite drugstore product. I hope you and Daniel are doing well.
I’ve been LOVING CurlSmith products lately!! Been pairing the weightless air dry cream with the bouncy strength volume foam and GIRL 🤩 ya gotta try it!
Great video! Been using the “flip-during drying” tip since I first learned it from you with great results so thank you! I’d love to see a video of your next haircut/shaping so I can show my sister/stylist how I’m heading once it gets a bit longer. Thanks so much India!
I just read the ingredients and there's not a single natural oil or butter in there. Big nope for me. I'll stick with Camille Rose and Mielle Organics which use ingredients I actually recognize
Yes please a haircut video and have your stylist or yourself explain the cut so that we may tell it to your hair stylist!!! Your hair is gorgeous!!! I’m also curious about your color and it’s techniques also!!!
Hey! I’ve just come across this video, and it’s absolutely amazing as well as you! Your hair looks gorgeous and I’m just getting into truly treating my natural curls with all the products I can get my hands on as I’ve neglected them a bit and having left my hair looking like a big stack of hay! Can’t wait to see my results!

India, I highly recommend the Aveda volumizing tonic, if you haven't tried it, instead of the dry shampoo. My hair is also fine and 2c/3a.
Girl shea moisture is for everyone who needs it. Don’t let the curly hair gatekeepers tell you otherwise!
I do love Shea Moisture, but it can be really heavy on finer hair.
Shea moisture makes my hair puffy and straight, but it’s good for other peoples hair types!

Please, please, please do a haircut video. My hair is so similar to yours but longer. I'd part with a few inches to get some volume going on.
yes m'am !! XOXOXO
Try unicorn cut, go short with the layers
@@indiabatson26 I'm voting for a haircut video too. You routine works pretty well on my hair but I haven't done a "curly" cut and I'd like to know the words to use to get what I want (higher the hair.... and whatnot :P )
and thanks for sharing :)
@@F2397-m4c I've tried it and wasn't thrilled with it. I know I definitely need to lose some length. Thanks though, I really appreciate your input.
Your eyes are gorgeous and the way you do your makeup really makes them stand out, but in such a natural way. I’m going to see if you have any makeup tutorials, but if not, please make some. 🦋💜
my holy grail curly products are the NYM curl talk cream, gel, 3-in-1 leave in and curl mask, shea moistures protein treatment mask!!!
I NEED to know if you brush your hair after washing out the conditioner? Do you brush it in the shower, out of the shower or not at all? If anyone else knows please let me know!
I know this is an old video but I just wanted to say I have been struggling with my wavy hair since I started wearing it wavy a year ago. I finally decided to try Not Your Mother's Curl Talk Sculpting Gel at your suggestion and I AM HAVING THE BEST HAIR DAY EVER. This stuff is truly holy grail!
Thanks for the tips for wavy hair! I am a mix between 2A and 2B. I've been trying out the CGM for 6 months now and getting a little discouraged. My middle layers have taken to the process very well but my top/crown layers and around the nape of my neck want to flatten and straighten out. I'll try switching up my products but any other advice you can throw my way I'd very much appreciate it!
THISSSSS! that was me a couple years ago. i found that the top/crown layers, and area around my neck straighten out quickly, but i found that a curl cream or mousse worked perfectly for that!
Same problem!
Same here! Middle section looks great, but the top layer is like nope, we're just going to keep doing our weird, pathetic half wave over here. 😑
that silk pj top is EVERYTHING girl
African-american hairstylusts understand curly hair like nobody else.
I've been following a bunch of them for years and they are amazing.
You should try if you haven't.
I totally want to see a video of you getting a hair cut. This way I can see how yours is done and helps the curls be beautified and perfect
So Glad I found this channel! Watched so many curly hair videos that just wasn’t working for me until now (I have hair very similar to yours, fine, high density, bleached) and just tried your routine and finally got some volume in my hair!
literally in love with your hair. the color, the waves/curls, the volume, omg!!! 😍😍😍
Sheamoisture is such an awesome brand. I am definitely going to try the Manuka honey and yogurt mask next time I go to my beauty supply store. What blush do you wear? It makes your blue eyes pop. Stunning!
10/10 recommend the SheaMoisture protein treatment it’s sooo good. And the blush is in the description. It’s “Rare Beauty” by Selena Gomez :)
YESS please do a haircut video, I've been so curious about your haircut and how to tell my stylist what I want! Yours is so perfect! 😍
Would love to see a haircut video!! What lipstick or gloss are you wearing?? Love the color, everything looks beautiful on you!!
Love this video, I'm pretty sure you are one of the only people on the internet I've seen with my hair type. Your hair is really beautiful, I also have to comment on how gorgeous your eyes are!
Married life has been looking good on India☺️
Awwww angel 😭✨💛💛💛💛
The Manuka mask is everything! Saved my bleached hair.
GIRL! I was literally going to ask for this EXACT video (unsponsored)!!! 🤩 💗
I use the same Shea Moisture protein hair mask. I have also really been loving the HiBar moisture shampoo and conditioning bars, not your mothers deep conditioner, Maui Moisture leave in conditioner and of course Not Your Mothers Curl Mousse and gel. I use Badger Balms Argon Hair Oil, it’s nice.
I HAVE to say thank u so much!!! My hair finally gets good day after , day after day and it’s all because of u, if u could see the photos omg so gorgeous thank uuuuuuuu
My dream hair! I cannot get a good system for mine and it never looks this good!
If your hair is similar to mine !! Try these products 😘 I hope they work for you, they are all linked in the description box in order
GIRL YOU HAVE THE PRETTIEST BLUE EYES IVE EVER SEEN💙💙💙
Your eyes and hair and personality 😍😍😍
I wish my hair was like that. 😩 It can’t make up it’s mind. 🥺 some days it super wavey like it wants to curl other days it tries to be straight. My hair has multiple personalities. 😩 😭 Also so refreshing to see you using affordable products. 🙌🏼
Would really like to see your mom's haircut, too. I'm the same age and thinking about giving up the straightening. She's an inspiration.
I've been waiting for this video!! Thanks so much from a fellow bleached wavy girl! You're gorgeous!
ahhh twins 👏💁♀️ I hope this video is helpful !!! What’s your favorite hair product for your waves ??
@@indiabatson26 It definitely is! I got hooked on the Honey & Yogurt Mask from your recommendations! I actually love the Giovanni Gel!
I used to highlight my hair as blonde as you are. I also had almost the exact texture & curl pattern as well as amount of volume and the illusion of thickness. Started with foils many years ago and then changed to balayage. I haven't done any of these treatments to my hair in over a year. Somewhat due to covid and also due to finances. Now my hair is it's natural color. A much darker blonde. The curl pattern has changed tho! I've noticed it''s not as fluffy and gets weighted down quicker. I'll have to try those lighter products you mentioned OR get back to the salon and get my highlights back again. This video makes me miss it a lot!
I love Shea's apple cider hair mask. My hair soaks it up to the point it starts to curl even while soaking wet (rare for a wavy head in the 2c/3a area)
Girl that curl talk os no joke. In trying my curly journey (too much info so much work I'm overloaded). Currently I'm listening to this while rosemary oiling my hair and I have fine hair but a LOT of it and that shit my this feel FULL
This is what my hair looks like wet but the waves fall while it dries :(
Mine too. I'm now trying to use gel properly to get them to cast while drying.
@@lucy-annpickering7459 tell me more tell me more
try using more gel, or even plopping while it dries! that'll help hold the pattern as it all dries
Damp hair! Lighter scrunch!
Use a diffuser or plop!
Protein treatments and bond builders are actually different! They can and should be used in conjunction with each other. The bond builders attach the proteins together, they don’t add proteins. So for max efficiency you should use both.
Just so you know!
Girl, you are so from the South. "The bigger the hair, the closer the God" is so southern! As always you are just so adorable. I am intrigued that Maui Moisture has a gel. I can't wait to try it. I use all the products you featured except the Maui Moisture cream. I LOVE the SM 100% Coconut conditioner AND shampoo. They are perhaps my favorite drugstore product. I hope you and Daniel are doing well.
You are one of the most beautiful people I have ever seen. You're also the one who inspired me to try a curly hair routine.
“The bigger the hair, the closer to God” sounds like something 1990s Fran Drescher would say. Here for it. 🤣
My number one reason for subscribing is for your eyes, second reason is your personality. You're beautiful 😍
I NEED a haircut video, girl! I’m suffering from “triangle hair” and my waves need help! Love your videos ❤️
Me too! I don’t think my hairstylist understands wavy curly hair and tried to talk me out of layers other than very long ones.
The Shea moisture really does work. I have the natural hair and Of Color community to thank for my wavy/curly girl hair.
I’ve been LOVING CurlSmith products lately!! Been pairing the weightless air dry cream with the bouncy strength volume foam and GIRL 🤩 ya gotta try it!
Your enthusiasm and personality are adorable!
Okay but like her eyes ,they r sooo beutiful omg 😭😭💗💗💗
Angel 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏
wow @3:22 your eyes are the prettiest cornflower blue... ( just happened to pause vid there lol)
Great video! Been using the “flip-during drying” tip since I first learned it from you with great results so thank you! I’d love to see a video of your next haircut/shaping so I can show my sister/stylist how I’m heading once it gets a bit longer. Thanks so much India!
Awww you don’t know how happy it makes me to hear that the flipping method works for you to !!!!!!! 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
@@indiabatson26 your hair is beautiful
OMG !! LOOK AT HER EYES. She's beautiful 😍 ❤!
Absolute must have for a wavy hair day is Xmondos wavetech. It is so stinking good, I never thought I’d be sucked into a pricier product but I love it
I just read the ingredients and there's not a single natural oil or butter in there. Big nope for me. I'll stick with Camille Rose and Mielle Organics which use ingredients I actually recognize
I love Shea Moisture too, I keep hearing people complain that it isn't good quality, but I love what it does for my wavy, fine hair.
Can you tell us how you ask your hairstylist to cut your hair??? And yes, film it if you have to !!! Thank you !!! 🙏🏻🥰❤️ You are beautiful girl !!!
Girl! I wanna see 👀 that haircut!!! YES!
I’m an Aussie IF gel gal over here. Can’t do without it ❤️
Ok I have to know what lip color you have and what brand and your cheek color too!!!!! So pretty!!❤️💯
Yes please a haircut video and have your stylist or yourself explain the cut so that we may tell it to your hair stylist!!! Your hair is gorgeous!!! I’m also curious about your color and it’s techniques also!!!
I would love a haircut vid!!!
The little curl on your forehead when you were fluffing out your hair was so cute
Girl we need an eyeshadow tutorial stat
That conditioner is my favorite too!! My hair just LOVES it!! And I think I got it back in the day because you mentioned it!
Hey! I’ve just come across this video, and it’s absolutely amazing as well as you!
Your hair looks gorgeous and I’m just getting into truly treating my natural curls with all the products I can get my hands on as I’ve neglected them a bit and having left my hair looking like a big stack of hay! Can’t wait to see my results!
