UPDATED DENMAN TUTORIAL is linked in the description! I’ve only gotten better at this 😂
And also like tge fact that you didn't use tooooo many proucts
Hi what is your curl pattern and hair type?
Thanks for providing me with multiple laughs, and your curly hair routine!
for someone with curly hair, this is a great system. 👍🏻
Great info! Fun narrative! Thanks so much!!
Just now embracing my curls and I am so mad I have never heard of this Denman brush until NOW!! My whole life is a lie haha! Your videos are awesome and I am so happy to subscribe :)
Excellent content! Great detail and commentary. Thank you! 😊
Love that brush!! Use it on wash days. Love your videos!
Love watching how people use this brush I recently did a comparison on the D3 & D4. Great video love your curls 😍
Thank you so much! And same - it’s such a versatile tool!!
Really helpful video....I will try your technique with my Denman Brush. Your hair looks fantastic!
Louise Allen Thank you so much!! I use this technique all the time and I always love the results. It’ll take a few tries but you’ll nail it!
Cake mousse is so amazing and the smell is divine!
I love your hair and technique! I’ll finally try the denman brush and I’ll get the mousse. Wish me luck!
roberta singer Thank you!! Good luck - I think you’ll love both the brush and the mousse! xxx
OMG THIS WAS SOO FREAKING HELPFUL THANK UUUUUU
YAY you’re welcome!! 💛
Brought a Denman brush about a month ago and still trying to get the hang of it... so definitely using this technique on my next wash day! Also looking at replacing my current mousse (redken) with the CAKE one that I found in store, so after this video I’m definitely purchasing!! (My current one leaves quite a cast)
If you’re using the same mousse, you can break the cast by getting some hair oil and scrunching it. You could also get your fingers under some of your hair, close to your scalp shake it. It can cause your hair to frizz but it also creates a lot of volume!! Hope I helped
I just ordered the denman brush and it's arrvivng today :) :) Along with lots of other new hair goodies :) Hubby and I both have curls (his are better than mine) but after over a year of me leaving my natural curls go, I am ready to start embracing them again :) :) I kept telling hubby he needed to start adding product to his so his curls are more defined, he's finally decided to start :) :) and WHAT A DIFFERENCE :) We are both excited to see how this journey goes :) Great Video, I just subscribed :)
Love the video and your curls!
Thank you so much!! 💛
You have a storytelling talent, really. It's interesting and nice to listen to.
That is so kind!! Thank you for watching 💛💛💛
True! Feels like I'm watching ESPN for curling 😆 Makes everything 100x more entertaining.
Great video ! P.S. love your showercurtain !!!!
Thank you for the in-depth tutorial. Gonna change up my routine and see how it goes
Good luck!! 💕
I ALSO USED L.A LOOKS SPORTS GEL OMG THAT CCRRUUUUNNNCCHHHHH GIRL HAHA
The crisp was REAL!!
Me too I am on my 3rd bottle
Love that you are fast in gtting to point. And parting your in 3 parts lleft right and crown to the front instead of like all who part their in thr middle. Yours looks better. Also agree with the no wet look look. Love your curls size as well.
Wow that’s so many kind things to say!! Thank you so much ☺️
A- I used to have that exact same shower curtain (with the marching toothbrush holder) 😂 B- I LOOOOVE the Cake mousse!!! I just started my curly journey two months ago so figuring out what works for me. This video is making me question the gel I’ve been using (in addition to the cream and mousse). Im going to try it this way next wash day!
Chuckled at the markup break. Sooo relatable.
Yours is the FIRST video where I’ve seen someone intentionally brush their hair and leave it looking straight then scrunch - it’s a game changer! I tried mine for the first time last week and clearly used it wrong but this video and your descriptions are awesome. Thank you!
1:12 pm. I’m very new with natural curly hair. Love it
Thank you for sharing. I have fine curls also.
tammy aswell Happy to help! Let me know how things turn out for you xx
Looks great 👍
I lay down on the register of my air forced furnace in the winter and use the blow dryer on the areas not on the register. Seriously...my hair is fab in the winter.
Ordered the mousse today since my hair tends to easily get weighed down- wish me luck ( the shipping though, OUCH!)
Best of luck!! Good to know about the shipping too - thanks for sharing! Their body products are worth the investment too, so that might make the shipping hurt less, or you may be able to find them at Rite Aid or Walgreens (which is where I pick mine up). I think you’ll love it!!
Got the mousse! Used it today... it was PHENOMENAL!!! Let’s see what tomorrow (day 2) brings (fingers crossed). Thank you so so much for the recommendation.
Irma Keller I am so glad to hear that!! Always happy to recommend my favorite products xx
Day 2 was good (not phenomenal, but good)... I will continue to use this mousse, you have changed my hair routine THANKS!
Beautiful hair and tutorial! Can you share what brow products you're using and the color please?
I appreciate seeing how this works on someone with same skin tone as me, since our hair may be similar in texture to some degree.
Glad I could help!!
Very nice result !
Thank you so much!
I have the same problem of my hair being weighed down, but mousse gives me so much frizz! I haven’t yet found that sweet spot of having a good hold that is still lightweight and doesn’t make my hair feel product-y. The struggle 🤷♀️
I FEEL THIS COMMENT WITH MY WHOLE HEART AND SOUL
Have you tried Cake mousse or mousse + cake curl cream? I hear it's a lot like I will try it soon
@@jennyrose9454 Was it good?
@@shellie4958 yes it's nice. And it smells good. I like the curl cream and mousse in that order
@@jennyrose9454 Okay thank you so much! I definitely try it
Thank you love the video! What do you do when refreshing in between wash days?
I have a few refresh videos up on the channel that should help you out!! Thanks for watching! 💛
Omg you and Jonathan are so cute.
It’s so hard to do a curly routine where it’s like 15 minutes to denman brush it but my entire routine is shower, hair, makeup get dressed all within 15 minutes since baby and toddler….mom bun it is
Your shower curtain is adorable
Thank you! 😂
Hey there! I just found your channel and am so glad because we have very similar curl patters! I do have a questions though. It looked like you were forming your curls away from your face with the Denman brush but at the end it looked like your curls naturally like to form towards your face? Is there a reason you do it that way? I'm about a week and a half into my curly journey and have yet to get the Deman brush to really work for me. Thanks!
Lacey Keith great question! I try to train my curls away from my face, hence using the brush in that direction. Now that doesn’t always mean the curls will form that way - each curl has its own personality! - but the twist will help get that spiral started on the right foot. It also depends on which way my hair wants to part that day, since parting to one side vs the other could mean my curls *look* like they’re forming towards my face! I hope this helps lol and I hope you keep me posted when you give the Denman brush a try!
@@TheFitCurls Thanks for the info! It was super helpful. I will definitely play around with it and let you know!
Love how you commentate
Thank you so much! I honestly love doing it!
Hi. I have thick 2c 3a curls. My question is.... what method do you suggest for me to obtain larger curls?
How long does it take you style from start to finish?
So if you just put that product in in sections and scrunched, do you think you'd have got a different result?
How do you clean your denman, after all that product?
Maybe try to t-shirt scrunch before diffusing? I don’t diffuse very often, but when I do, if I don’t dry my hair somewhat first, it takes FOREVER to dry.
Rosetta Drone SO TRUE! I started microplopping after applying my styling products and it made all the difference - check out my Ultimate Curl Routine for the updated version!
The Fit Curls I will check it out! I am bored as hell rn, so I’m trying to up my hair game 😂
I’ve been regular plopping in a t-shirt for about 20 minutes, then air drying the rest and it’s working well so far
Do you have to diffuse after using a denman brush or is it ok to air dry? I have 2a/b waves and I don’t own a hairdryer or diffuser so I can only air dry at the moment. I want to get a hairdryer and diffuser but I can’t right now. Just wanted to know so if I go and buy a denman brush it won’t be a pointless expense.
Great question - I choose to diffuse because I want the extra volume but you can absolutely air dry!
As a French person, it is hilarious to hear her saying "Crème Brûlée" 😂😂
Oh Americans, we ruin everything 🤣🤣🤣
..and what about your English pronounciation?
@@uschicox9454 I didn't say that to make fun of Angela or criticize and I know my English accent is probably bad ; I was just fun because I didn't expected a French name of flavour that's all.
@@uschicox9454 che antipatica
You should hear us say French names like Givenchy
This is the easiest technique in over 20 I've watched!
Um, I don't want to be weird, but you could narrate my books... like you have the perfect ya protagonist voice.
Um hi I love voiceover work 🤩😂
WE HAD THAT SHOWER CURTAIN, HOLDERS, RUG, SOAPDISH? WHEN I WAS A KID TOO
So good!!! 😂
why you didnt touch your hair with dyfuzor?
I have straight hair but I want it to be curl some way!! Is there something I can use??
you can try a perm :) I follow Guy Tang and he has straight hair and has videos having perms and his hair is on point.
Will this work with a 2a/2b wave?
Great question - yes it will! I highly recommend styling with wet rather than damp hair - with a looser pattern you’ll want that extra water to help you form those juicy wave clumps 😍
What is the oil you used at the end?
Wella Oil Reflections Light!
Silhouette mousse - Schwarzkopf black or pink
finalllly someone with my curl type! what would you say it is? 2B?
I categorize mine as 2C-3A, fine texture, medium density, high porosity :)
@@TheFitCurls thanks! im so surprised haha I thought mine was 2a/2b :0
What type of curl do you have, I have almost the exact hair type
I categorize mine as 2C-3A, fine texture, medium density, high porosity :)
wow you have a LOT of patience with the diffuser
That I do - the one realm in life where that’s true 🤣 i have since adopted microplopping which legit cuts my diffusing time in half!
@@TheFitCurls good for you 😂 i‘ll have to try that then
How often do you wash and use this routine?
Twice a week! My high-porosity hair and dry scalp demand it haha
I have 2c and 3a curls. I kept seeing all these videos about this brush so I ordered one. I tried it out last night and the weirdest thing happened....it STRAIGHTENED my hair!!! What the heck did I do wrong?
WHOOOAAAAA haha I think I experienced that once or twice? Maybe?! I suggest adding a bit more tension on the brush. Tension creates tighter curls! And don’t forget to shake your head to help those curls take shape :) I’m going to be sharing an updated technique video soon so keep an eye out for that!
@@TheFitCurls So, I tried it again. My husband helped me as he is the one who loves washing my hair for me. He noticed the same thing. No matter how much tension I put on it, it straightens my hair, lol. Crazy, isnt it. So I just put it up like I normally do after he washes it for me and let it do it's own thing as it dries on it's own.
Do you have native curls? From your genes?
I’ve never actually understood what difference the number of rows in your Denman makes. Anyone explain?🙏🏻
More rows = more tension = better for tighter curls! For my looser pattern & medium clumps, I love the 7-row. It just depends on what you want! xx
New follower here. Are all the products you use CG method approved please?
Hi there and welcome! I do not follow the CGM so I frequently use a product here and there that is not approved. In this video, the two stylers I used are approved but the serum has silicones. Hope this helps!
@@TheFitCurls Thankyou
I’m 11 and can you tell me what definition mean cause when I’m doing my curls when I use a towel they disappear what do I do rlly wanna know what definition is for hair
Definition in terms of curls means being able to see the individual spiral or wave structure of each curl clump! Using a towel will make that definition disappear by separating the clumps (Curl families, if you will) before they get to set in place. Hope this helps!
The Fit Curls tysm
how many rows do you use? he bottom half of my hair has amazing waves but my top half is so so straight :(
Tara Joseph I use the D3 which has 7 rows. Your hair may need some retraining! How long have you been wearing your natural waves?
@@TheFitCurls I haven't straightened my hair in over a year, I always try different methods to no avail. Lately, just not even been trying...so I will retrain them cause they do have potential
Tara Joseph I’ve found the Denman to really help with curl training, and I’ll finger coil as well! Have patience and keep going!
My hair is like yours.. super porous too😞
Tried the same process and it looks awful on me. I can't get the crunch to go away.
You may have used too much product! Everyone’s hair needs a different amount. I swear my hair drinks product 😂 and some people do much better with a less-is-more approach. I highly recommend trying again with smaller amounts of product, but don’t sweat it if it’s not for you!! Do what your hair likes 💛
can I use gel?
Of course! I just used that mousse cause it’s my favorite :)
My hair is straight in the front and curly in the back!! I don’t know what to do with it
That sounds like quite the conundrum! How have you been styling your hair on a regular basis? xx
@@TheFitCurls Well that’s the problem I can’t😂. If i do my hair gets so knotted and crunchy. sometimes i’ll just do half up half down but I’m honestly not sure
I just started letting my natural curly journey this week, I bought a denman brush but its the 9 row, will it work for 3a 3b curls? My hair is fine and bleached, I’m also starting the transition of growing out my natural color, 5 months into that, my hair looks awful right now sadly.
Congrats on starting! I know of many Type 3 curlies that use the 9-row and get great results, so give it a go and tell me how you feel about the results!! It may be worth asking your colorist about glazing your hair to ease in your transition back to your natural color - that will deposit pigment without lifting the level of your hair, so it shouldn’t cause any more damage and might help boost your confidence :) best of luck in your transition!!
The Fit Curls hey! Thanks so much for answering my question. I am actually a licensed cosmetologist but unfortunately the school I went to taught us nothing on curly hair, I have a lot of grey hairs along with my natural so I am not wanting to glaze or anything. I want my color to be 100% dye free and all me 😱
Okay I now officially neeeeed to chat with you because I am so curious about the cosmetology experience of texture! Please email me thefitcurls@gmail.com 💛
You are funny. I don't have 2 hours to style and try. I'll see if you have a video about faster styling with air drying
I have curls but not the patience for all that. Just can't do it 😭
To each their own! You can always use a simpler technique and air dry - whatever fits your hair and your lifestyle! This is just what works for me :)
Love your videos but have to say I'm baffled and envious you can get away with using soooo much of your styling products and coat your hair so generously lol. I have similar fine type waves/curls but if I used more than a half dollar size of leave in cream and gel or small golf ball worth of mousse my hair will be defined however feel insanely weighed down, gunky, and make my normally non oily roots very greasy and have to wash much sooner. Alas! 😅
Why are you SOTC at 85%? I thought we weren't supposed to until 100%?
I’m impatient 🤣 it can also add a bit more volume (which is a bonus I discovered by being impatient!) I’ve posted an updated routine with the Denman - check out My Ultimate Curl Routine!
Where are you? You have gone missing lately
Too much work
It goes by surprisingly fast when you get the hang of it! But hey, we all gotta do what works best for our hair and our schedule 🙂
Way too much work. Bet it would be no different with or without the brush!
I tried this today and the results were amazing 🥹
