    Mell "We went over a lot of info today."
    So so true but this is important. I think I understand but I could be wrong so its
    ✔✔ First Phase Prep - 4:55 ✔✔
    ✳Whilst hair is wet apply:
    1. Moisturizing products e.g leave in condition.
    2. Products containing glycerin or other humectants such as 2:17.
    Tip💡: On curly and coily hair brush evenly for best distribution but ensure looser curls or wavy textured hair is very wet first.
    ✔✔ Second Phase Style - 7:59 ✔✔
    ✳ Section hair for better control then apply:
    1. Curl enhancing/defining cream ( Note: it is okay to use products in this step which contain glycerin however ensure that in the poduct listing there are occulsive sealing ingredients that counter it such as petrolatum, mineral oil , coconut oil or dimethicone)
    2. Gel or mousse for hold that contains polyquaternium-4 (Or these 10:24 really important for dealing with humidity)
    Tip💡: Define curls using denmin brush. Style using the 90 degree technique shown here I think.
    ruclips.net/video/P2r4EhEOz64/видео.html
    Tip💡: Dippity doo is lighter than the Aussie which has a heavier cream which is better for thicker hair.
    ✔✔ Third Phase Finish - 10:30 ✔✔
    ✳ Begin hover diffusing I think this is the technique
    ruclips.net/video/TZYZEl_cylc/видео.html
    Pro tip💡: If humidity is high air dry inside.
    🚨⚠ Don't forget happy hour while diffusing. Yes correct me if I am wrong Mell but I believe this is mandatory.
    ✳ Once dry apply final occlusive product.
    Tip 💡: Holy Grail for real humidity and thick hair 11:43
    ✳ Scrunch and fluff.
    ✳ Refresh in a couple days. Get products that can be apply on dry hair.
    Now for bloopies💜💜💜💜💜

      I second that! I'm just starting out with trying to enhance my naturally wavy hair and it's been trial and error so far. I have a lot of hair that's not really that fine, so I've always been generous with my products the way curlies are, but I'm finding that for my wave pattern, less is more. I also have stringy clumps at the bottom of my head that don't hold a curl the same way as the hair on the top. Any dedicated insight on type 2 hair would be helpful.

    This definitely shows that the "curly girl method" is not the only answer. You can use a combination of methods and products for your custom routine but not one routine is good for everyone. Mell doesn't follow the CGM an her hair looks amazing. The proof is in the pudding.

    @amandakarie-fenton2601 Год назад

    This video helped me so much. I've been dealing with super frizzy and rough hair for months. I did the strand elasticity test and it broke almost immediately. I went to my products and all of them seem to have a lot of moisturizing ingredients, so I was lost. THEN (!!!) I noticed all of my styling products have glycerin within the first 3 ingredients. I live in the south, where it's always humid even when it's freezing.
    So I started over. I clarified and followed with a good mask, and switched out my products so I'm only using 1 with glycerin, and layering plenty of polyquats and sealing ingredients over that.
    One. wash. was all it took. My hair is completely different, just from getting rid of about 90% of the glycerin.
    Thank you!! ❤️

    • @bronwenlowritew574

      fussfo definitely style hair upside down, put products in when the hair is soaking wet so the hair doesn’t get weighed down when drying. I avoid products with Shea butter and heavy moisturisers because my fine hair gets greasy and straight easily.

    • @monas.6839
      @monas.6839 4 года назад +1

    • @sharroon7574
      @sharroon7574 4 года назад +2

      I find sometimes my hair needs more protein and less moisture so styling products with moisture can help but also the right shampoo and conditioners. I mix my hair cream with water and spray it on so it's evenly distributed. It's a difficult balancing act for sure for our type. Maybe try finger coiling or the jump rope technique.

    I love watching your videos. I have learned so much over the past month when I stumbled across your video of your wash day routine. I've always had super thick, super curly hair and my Tío is a hair dresser. He gives me alot of tips, product suggestions, always cuts my hair according to my curls. I've learned that I've been using the right products - the wrong way. I would just plop on my curl cream or gel and get to the rest of my day after washing. Watching your videos, I've learned what a wash day should look like - and how to properly refresh my hair when needed. I got a big hair cut this past weekend ( went from down my back length to just about chin length) and my Tío said that my hair looks the healthiest it has been in the last few years.

I live in the UK where there is constant rain and wind - at least when we're not stuck indoors!

    My hair is more like your seester's, coarse, thick, looser curls. You mentioned that when applying leave in to apply to really wet hair and then brush it in for all over coverage but should I be applying my stylers to really wet hair also? I get wet frizz and it all goes to shit

    Do you have any input on water quality and how it affects hair product choices?
    I live in Ontario and the hard water here makes my hair feel a little more coarse, makes my curl come out and stay in my hair longer.
    When I go back home to Vancouver each summer, the soft water makes my hair feel really soft, and I have almost no curl, and products behave differently. It can be frustrating trying to predict what types of products to use with the soft water, because I have been in Ontario for 18 years and have become so accustomed to the methods I use now on a daily basis.
    My hair is naturally normal/fine, Med thickness, wavy.
    Your Input on water quality and product choices would be appreciated.

    • @ManesByMell
      @ManesByMell  4 года назад +2

      ah isnt that ironic! Sorry to hear about your hair woes! make sure you have a good cleansing shampoo (one with sulphates will do great) and dont be afraid of having them in the ingredients! Try shopping for products that claim to help your hair goal, so to achieve shine, de-frizz, conditioning etc and you will find it! I have shared so many on this channel, one of my favourites like Verb curl cream is a great one!

    • @monas.6839
