Melinda, I thank the universe everyday that I found your channel! You actually saved my 2b/2c hair - seriously! Nothing other curly people are recommending has ever worked for me, your tips finally convinced my hair to actually stay curly xD So, thank you so much for everything you do!
My hair is weird because it can curl wet and then it won't dry curly. I have very fine hair and when I used heavy conditioners it just weighs it down and it looks gross. My other dilemma is that when I wash it sometimes without a conditioner it will leave my hair curly when dried, but my hair will also feel dry. I tend to oil my hair, but with very light oils. I have used something in the past that gave me a great balance and I cannot for the life of me remember what shampoo and conditioner that was used. I just feel like giving up.
Girl you read my mind. I moved to well water recently and like swear to god my hair has gone through like 3 changes in the last 6 months getting more wore down each change. The advice for the clarifying shampoo in hard water is what I think my hair really needs, so thank you for suggesting that! Water is such a jerk for being so different! Hope things are going well for you! Happy new year!
My hair is weird. When I scrunch, the top part of my hair is curly, but not the bottom of my hair. And then, the curls disappear when I wake up in the morning (like I never had a curl to begin with). It's been a while since I got a hair cut, though, so there may be too much length weighing my hair down. However, I'm still trying to get past not having frizzy hair when it dries, so if you have any tips, that would be great! Awesome video, by the way!
Mine is the same but opposite! The bottom layers of my hair curl beautifully and the top is straight and frizzy. I’ve always assumed it’s because my hair is bleached and the top is lightened more than the bottom layers but I’m not actually sure
Wow this is me, Since I started like Jan 2020 I never had waves by my roots, (never knew they existed) now my roots curl up like baby hair and my ends are straight noodles 😩 looks so good when it’s wet then it’s a frizz and noodle party 😂
I'm happy found your channel I’m figuring out how to take care of my newly found wavy hair after moving to a state with a lot humidity 😂 I would plop and diffuse but then my waves would fall straight again…
Over 2 years in and hair dries like strings 😭😂 thank you for this (my hair dries so frizzy and goes straight on the top layer then underneath I have all my wavies come out :( whenever i do a full clarify and intense protein mask then I get something…. Every time time it’s a no😅 so demotivating but still going and trying eeeeevery day. I also have a lot of wet frizz even after all the cuts… any tips for wet frizz while trying a damp style? that scares me from damp styling but I’m gonna give it a go. The den man only makes me look less stringy if I use the handle to twist it (coolest tip I’ve seen)
For wet frizz I recommend trying to flip ur head upside down when adding conditioner and brush that through thoroughly, flipping ur head is just so u can see ur hair as u brush it through, I’m not sure if this is going to work or not so yeah, just thought that it might be able to do so. Good luck! :)
AG products have really transformed my curls on refresh day, mousse gel and curl trigger are my main go to's. Their new curl fresh line which is plant based is also amazing! 💖
I really like the kinky curl leave in! So simple, and does not have a lot of strange unpronounceable ingredients. I do add a few drop of quinoa protein to it when I use it or my hair feels way too soft. I don't like the smell of it.
I'm going to test out damp styling tomorrow! My hair always loosens as it dries and maybe this could be a good solution! Do you have any strong hold gel recommendations? I have long hair that gets weighed down a bit so I've been trying to find some strong gels.
Thank you for this video, Melinda! I have been having thus problem lately! I'm so thankful I found your channel, I went through binge watching a lot of your content a few months back or so , and it was super helpful! You are so cute, I love your personality, and you have absolutely gorgeous hair! Keep on being you! ❤

Aw yay! I’m so glad I could help🤗🤗
hi any advice on what you did I'm in the exact same position as you right now

Thank god finally advice for 2A hair 😭

@@MikaMyGirl Oh wow! It could be because of the bleach since that can damage your hair. But this is just my assumption.

I just moved to Texas and went thru the same thing 😂😂
scruncing wet hair that has product in it with paper towels to get out the water weight works great as well

Same
Literally the most helpful channel
Thank you so much 🥺🥺
My top layer goes straight and frizzy but underneath I have loose curls/ super wavy hair and I never knew my hair type because of it

We miss you!! ❤️❤️❤️
Aww I miss filming!🖤🖤

Do you have any strong hold gel recommendations? I have long hair that gets weighed down a bit so I've been trying to find some strong gels.
I like the Aussie hold strong volume gel! And I’ve heard great things about the kinky curly custard!
Any tips from you are always a good thing. I don't think you've given any bad advice🙂.
Thank you!🥺
My hair gets waves in the back but the front pieces go completely straight. Probably going to try the protein
My 2A hair "dries" nicely until I scrunch out the crunch. Then it's straight at the bottom, wavy on top. Might need more layers?
Ecoslay Orange Marmalade over Kinky Curly Knot Today is an amazing combo for me to keep my wavy curls from straightening out the gate. 🙂
I'm new to the wavy hair life and I love orange marmalade so far!
Great video! Thanks for the tips. I’m definitely going to try the damp styling. Are you by any chance from Philly/Delco area?
Did your hair change during pregnancy? I've completely lost my curls/waves :( I'm 3 months pp and patiently waiting for them to return
Yes! I’m pretty sure if you’re breastfeeding that can affect it too
Idk bout yall but the "not your mothers" curls cream WEIGHED MY WAVES DOWN, it also WEIGHED my moms curly hair down

Aww thank you so much!🖤🖤
I love your hair color! I wanna dye mine dark to match my natural color. Did u do it yourself? What color is it? :)
I don’t anymore! I got it done at the salon 🖤
Is this also reliable for men?
If your hair is curly or wavy then yes!
I didn't notice the jewelry they're really subtle. At first i thought you were showing your hair
I hate when that happens!
First!!!
😘😘
@@melindab thank you!!!!
If I had to do all this I’d keep straight hair all you gotta do to curly hair is spray water seems like you are manipulating it
Everyone's hair texture is different. My hair dries wavy but some products used to keep the frizz away, weighs my hair and wavy hair down.
