I go for the deep side part- but only at the very front of my hair. I’ve been using a lot of the volume techniques you suggested- great results! Thank you 😊
I typically part on the side straight back, which really causes the same issue you have of the scalp showing in the back. It makes me feel bald😱😱😱 I'm going to try the zigzag part in the morning and really focus on cutting the part much shorter of a line.
It’s so great that you are focusing so much on low density hair, so many curly youtubers have such thick voluminous hair and their tips and tricks and product recs don’t always work for us low density folks, or the results they get just aren’t realistic for us. Your videos are so helpful and affirming!
My hair is thick but thinning quickly. I feel like I’m losing curl so I like her tips. Here it’s winter and my hair tends to frizz more in the winter. I love the dove amplified textures. I was using hasks curl line but I feel after while it stripped my hair of shine. Guess I should stick with what I know works
Your density represents the majority of us. You give essential facts on styling and products. Subscribing to your channel is my first recommendation to curly/wavies that ask me for advice. Keep it up!
I love how your recent videos seem to really focus on helping lower density and/or flat roots! I know you always touch on it, but lately it seems like there's been a LOT of help in your videos! Love it, thanks!
I agreed. Also not everybody who has low density has thin texture. I have low with medium strands and her videos are my whole grail and Im re-structuring my whole routine!
seeing other peoples hair parting when their hair is wet always makes me feel better about my own, cause it makes me realize that it's normal to see the scalp
Omg this was SO HELPFUL! I cannot thank you enough for this video! I have low density hair that wants to part all the way to the back of my head and I’ve tried so many things to keep from liking like I have a weird bald area there. But I’ve not tried anything like these tips! I wasn’t going to wash my hair until tomorrow, but I’m so exited to try this, I’m washing it today!
Reporting back… I used the first method of sectioning the crown and placing the hair backwards to cover that cowlick…and it has never looked so good. I am absolutely blown away! This is a game changer! Thank you SO MUCH, Gena. You are the BEST!!
I've recently had a number of bad wash days, which made me want to give up on this! I had been watching other videos that encouraged putting product on soaking wet hair while bent over, plopping then diffusing (from the bottom up rather than hover diffusing at the roots first). My roots looked truly bizarre and the curls were misshaped because the ends had dried so much faster than the roots. Not to mention a way too strong gel that was impervious to any scrunching out. Going back to your method (and my usual Ouidad VitaCurl mousse and gel), damp drying and shaping the look first before diffusing gave me the voluminous, soft curls I like without any scalp weirdness. I don't have low density hair but rather very thick, fine wavy hair that doesn't sit right without some maneuvering. Thank you for the help! ♥
Thank you for this video! This is why I have been following you for years, we have very similar hair that is low density and 3b. A lot of curly influencers have SO much hair so I just can’t relate. My hair naturally wants to part all the way back just like yours and I really struggle with it. I can’t believe I am in my mid-30s and I didn’t know all of these tricks to hide my scalp and part my hair better. 🙂 Thank you again!
I just want to say I been trying to bring back my natural curls the last 4 years. Found your videos about a year ago and by far the most detailed. I used to have long curly/wavy thick hair but over the last 20 years with coloring and hormones it has become much thinnner and low/medium porosity with a horrible cowlick at my crown. Thank you for all your tips and your blog to help shop. My hair is again changing recently - so this is a life long process - especially as we age. Your advice has been invaluable. Thank you.
This video is so helpful!!! I lost a lot of my hair recently from TE and it’s been so frustrating/defeating trying to adjust to my new hair density. Very grateful for your content 🤍
I’m pretty certain I have 2c-3a curls, but I can’t brush any part of my hair wet without it going super straight. But I often have frizzy curls because I can’t separate them properly and get clumps! I’m working on figuring this out! Thank you for another great video!
I had the same problem too. Everytime I brushed its straight but when it’s dry I have curly hair. If you brush it with a deva curl and leave in conditioner and gel it helps. I scrunch out the gel in the morning or when my hair is done drying and I have no frizz for the first 2 days
Have you tried forming the curls with a Denman brush on wet hair? My hair looks nicer the less I play with it once the products are in and my hair is formed. I apply a primer then a curl cream in soaking wet hair, form the curl clumps with the Denman then I just leave it alone until it’s dry. Sometimes I even go to bed before it’s all dry and it still looks nice in the morning. If I play too much with scrunching it my waves look like ramen noodles, not good.
i always style upside down and was a bit skeptical when i saw this thinking it couldn’t make that much of a difference but i tried it yesterday and WOW! only downside is since i air dry there is definitely a loss of volume but for me that’s not as big a deal as the amount of scalp that was showing beforehand. so thank you! 💖
This is a fantastic video I would recommend to anyone with any hair density. You are a top tier curly hair RUclipsr! I’ve learned so much from you. Thank you!
Your hair looks so voluminous! I learned so much about styling from this! I now understand some of the issues that I struggle with. I almost didn't click on this video. Only because my hair is thick, low porosity and coarse. I'm so glad I did! Thank you, and, more please!
This video is even more helpful now than it was 5 months ago! I had covid at the end of November. My hair started shedding in January. It's still shedding in March. Gina, could you maybe do a video on T.E., Telegen Effluvium? I am stumped at what to do with my poor wavy curls as I wait for the shedding to stop and regrowth to start showing. The texture and density is so different now! Very wispy, low low density. This, TE is a huge thing, affecting many people now. I considered a wig or hairpiece but was advised against, as it could potentially create permanent damage, as opposed to this 1-2 year problem. I know that many of your viewers must be silently struggling with this issue. I'm so glad that I watched this video to be educated on a type and texture of hair that I was unfamiliar with, all those months ago. It is very helpful as I am learning about my hair all over again.
I have recently begun wearing my hair curly after many years of blowing it straight. I have to tell you how helpful and informative your videos have been. My hair is low density as well so in addition to having to cover the sparse area in the back of my head, I also deal with the side of my head where large curl clumps reveal too much of my scalp. I would love a video on how to deal with this.
This is an extremely helpful video! This answered so many questions! My fav way to style my part is usually just a side part. but after watching this, I think I will have a new favorite!
This is SO helpful, thank you! My hair is really similar to yours in terms of curl pattern and density; that "bald spot" effect that happens when your part just wants to go all the way back is the bane of my life and I've been desperately trying to hide it to no avail up until now. I can't wait to have a play with all these tips and tricks on wash day 😊.
This is a great video. I love that you’re doing these detailed styling videos. I love that you don’t just put out product review videos. Those are great too, but I learn so many tips from these videos that I don’t see from any other RUclipsr.
These detailed videos are very helpful. I am dealing with having thin hair for the first time in my life and am really learning how to style it to cover the crown.
I love the step by step demos here and all the different options! You really made me nostalgic for my late 90s zig zag parts. Might have to do that soon for old times' sake 😍
This is so perfect , I do the upside down brushing & yes my hair falls onto my face & I hate that so I always end up wearing a headband or scrunchie. I will try this today!💛😍
Thank you for your tips! I have thin fine high porosity hair. It was looking so dull and dry. Second day hair wasn't good. I finally tried Curl Smith and OMG! Amazing! My hair can go 3-4 days now. I really think my hair needed a little protein for sure.
Hi Gena! You literally are re-structuring my styling routine after months styling it on soaking wet hair and I never thought damp hair really works. I’m so lucky I finally found someone who does tips for low density hair after a lot of looking around and frustration. You have helped me to accept my low density since I wasn’t being very realistic with my expectations and also hated it. Are you thinking to do a styling routine with the Tangle Teezer? How has been your experience with this brush so far? Thank you for every detail you put into your videos. I really love them!
Thank you for sharing all your styling tips! I love your hair. I would never know you had low density hair by the way it looks after styling. My hair is thick and tighter curls, but I still can apply some of your techniques. I just got my hair cut the other day and we were taking about parting and ways to hide the part so it wasn’t just a straight line back. Keep up the tutorials please! And if you happen to come across tips for thicker, tighter curls, I would love that too! 💗
Since a month I us the harmonie Life Curls shampoo, conditioner, serum and mask. And every Day I use there Booster Curls Cream. Always-40%. The are the best. Before this I use the normal set. But the Curls Set is new. I am so glad I found it. And a small bit goed a long way.
I like the detailed instructions because I have also low density, fine hair. Unfortunately in Greece I have not the variety of styling products you have Because of English is not my mother language if you don't show what to do when you explain like this video and just talking to the camera I find that it makes me tired and I cannot watch it at once. But with video like this I had not problem. On the contrary it helped me to give attention to small details which usually make the difference.
This was sooo helpful thank you!! I’ve been looking for a video on parting because mine does exactly what yours does at the crown and I have that annoying bald spot.
Thank your for this video 😃 I can't stand my hair falling in my face and was tempted to go back to short hair because all I wear is a ponytail. Need to try this
love these tutorial videos which are helping me learn how to work with my low-density curls. I've been doing everything wrong for so many years. thank you for the tutorials and all your videos. My hair is so much more healthy.
Thanks for these helpful tips. The more I touch and play with my hair as I'm styling, the more friz I get. The root clips help soooo much since I don't defuse.
It’s all in the details. I know I can’t be the only one that finds it necessary to see all the fine details of what your doing. I must have rewound the application details about 4 times because I kept getting distracted. Lol
It's wash day and I'm so glad I came across this video first! I have low density hair and my hair will part just like yours; all the way back to a stubborn cowlick at my crown. I'm definitely going to try the first part you demonstrated. Thank you for this video! 😀♥️
Thank you for this video, your hair looks amazing and I love how you showed us step by step on how to cover the scalp and give volume, I literally struggle with this.. and your technique gave you an amazing result.. Thank you for sharing ❤
Ok, I'm scared, I'm going to wash my hair and was thinking about parting my hair differently, because I have short hair and wanted a different look...girl, youre reading my mind 🤣🤣
awsome tutorial gena! just one question- how do you take care of your hair when you sleep at night- like do you tie it or do you just sleep with it like that..... also- do you brush your hair every day?
New sub here! Also new to curly hair and am still learning a lot. My hair is also low density but doesn’t have the curl pattern yours does; although I’m still transitioning so who knows! One thing I’m struggling with is brushing while damp. It just makes my hair go straight. I need the scrunching to get my curls and waves to form.
Thank you for this video! I have the same low density hair, and long part with cowlick at the end of the part, which is on the back side like yours. I also have at least three different curl patterns on my head. Curliest at the back, and damn near straight at the top...also thinning on top, so I have to wear it shorter. Oh, and the right side is curlier than the left.🫤 I dread hair wash day, but look forward to trying some of your hacks. Do you have more videos on products? I will look into the Dove you were using. Finally, can you please share the info on the brush you were using? Thanks so much Gena!
Thanks for all these tips. I usually part slightly over my right eye, off center. I do that mostly because of my very curly front pieces tend to go that way. Sometimes I’ll part it the other way day two or three. I have your curls almost exactly. The back of my head only curls toward the ends, even coiling and twisting doesn’t help.
Hello Gena Marie! Love your videos very helpful especially adding more volume at the root, if you don’t mind me asking what hair color do you have in this video very flattering & I’d like to change my color
My hair is thinning and I do an oil treatment once a week and then shampoo it out. Do you have any recommendations for oil serums or even oils I can leave in my hair on my scalp when I wear my hair curly- this way I can work on my scalp health as well?
I’ve watched a ton of your videos after trying to regrow my curls after a pixie cut that i did after a major medical hair shed. And now I’m at it again after recovering from Covid. I don’t want another pixie. The shed has stopped. Finally. But the regrowth is only an inch and my entire head looks like shit.
Loved this video and all your videos! I have the same problem with my part that goes down the back and nothing I do seems to work. Sometimes I can diffuse it well enough to hide and get decent root lift and volume and then a half hour later the roots flatten!! Do you recommend any type of root spray? Also do you have a favorite regular hair spray which I like to use when I get my hair just the way I want it? I have learned so much from you💕💕
I find the Behairful brush covers the parting in the back the best because it's so dense! For hairspray, I like the Bounce Curl one: www.bouncecurl.com/collections/stylers/products/bounce-curl-alcohol-free-hair-spray?aff=6
So maybe I missed it, but I was curious on when exactly you should part your hair? When it's still wet? I read for best volume to wait until your hair is dry but that doesn't work for me.
Any product recommendation for oily hair? I want to try your techniques but I think if I am constantly running my fingers through my hair it will make my hair too greasy. I try to touch my hair as little as possible. Any tips would be much appreciated! Thanks! Also, what is the name of the purple brush and the boar bristle brush you used?
This is really helpful but my issue is thin hair on top so when my hair curls you can see scalp, plus is is a completely different type of hair on top xx any suggestions ?
Which way is your favorite way to part your hair? Are you going to try something new?!
I go for the deep side part- but only at the very front of my hair. I’ve been using a lot of the volume techniques you suggested- great results! Thank you 😊
My hair is similar to yours except I’m blonde. This is so helpful!
I typically part on the side straight back, which really causes the same issue you have of the scalp showing in the back. It makes me feel bald😱😱😱 I'm going to try the zigzag part in the morning and really focus on cutting the part much shorter of a line.
I've parted on the left for years but this video really made me think about my "good side" and I might switch.
I tend to center part. I have bangs and I like the look of more volume on the sides than on top

I think this video was really helpful! I'm watching during my own washday routine so I'm going to try a few of these things when it's time to style.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today!
Thank you for your tips!
I have thin fine high porosity hair.
It was looking so dull and dry. Second day hair wasn't good. I finally tried Curl Smith and OMG! Amazing!
My hair can go 3-4 days now.
I really think my hair needed a little protein for sure.

Hi how are you doing?
omg tysm for this, i’m going to have my life forever changed i feel it
Very helpful for my fine curls.
I have much shorter hair but many of these tips will help me to not give up. Thank you

Yes these videos are very helpful! Please keep making them. I just can't get my hair to look good but I'll keep watching and trying.
Thanks for these helpful tips. The more I touch and play with my hair as I'm styling, the more friz I get. The root clips help soooo much since I don't defuse.
Gonna use some of these styling tips! Thanks! Styling with a part in the middle was getting annoying
Yes!, it’s very helpful because my part is exactly like yours!

just one question- how do you take care of your hair when you sleep at night- like do you tie it or do you just sleep with it like that.....
also- do you brush your hair every day?
New sub here! Also new to curly hair and am still learning a lot. My hair is also low density but doesn’t have the curl pattern yours does; although I’m still transitioning so who knows!
One thing I’m struggling with is brushing while damp. It just makes my hair go straight. I need the scrunching to get my curls and waves to form.
Yeah, thats pretty normal, especially when you're transitioning. As it gets healthier its curl memory will improve.
@@GenaMarie thanks for the reply - and thank you for all the great info on your channel!
Thank you so much!!!i have the same hair with the same problems.your video helps me a lot!❤
I like to tease my curls, I think a little frizz doesn’t hurt the curls and it makes it looks a little messy, I don’t like hard/too defined curls.
I love your videos. Always good information and techniques
Thank you for this video! I have the same low density hair, and long part with cowlick at the end of the part, which is on the back side like yours. I also have at least three different curl patterns on my head. Curliest at the back, and damn near straight at the top...also thinning on top, so I have to wear it shorter. Oh, and the right side is curlier than the left.🫤
I dread hair wash day, but look forward to trying some of your hacks. Do you have more videos on products? I will look into the Dove you were using.
Finally, can you please share the info on the brush you were using? Thanks so much Gena!
Thanks for all these tips. I usually part slightly over my right eye, off center. I do that mostly because of my very curly front pieces tend to go that way. Sometimes I’ll part it the other way day two or three. I have your curls almost exactly. The back of my head only curls toward the ends, even coiling and twisting doesn’t help.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today!
Loved the tips! 💜
Hello Gena Marie! Love your videos very helpful especially adding more volume at the root, if you don’t mind me asking what hair color do you have in this video very flattering & I’d like to change my color
Thank you! It’s my natural color, a light/medium ash brown. Perhaps the lighting is making it warmer here because it’s pretty cooled toned naturally
@@GenaMarie
Aww! So lucky very pretty color! 😌
Great video Gena! These were awesome tips! Thank you! 👍😁😁😁😁
Hello 👋 how are you doing today!
This was a very helpful video. Thank you so much.
Such great tips that solved my same issues ! Thank you !
My hair is thinning and I do an oil treatment once a week and then shampoo it out. Do you have any recommendations for oil serums or even oils I can leave in my hair on my scalp when I wear my hair curly- this way I can work on my scalp health as well?
This was so helpful, my part wants to go all the way back like yours and it makes me nuts lol
Hello 👋 how are you doing today!
I just had issues with this today!! Thank you!
I’ve watched a ton of your videos after trying to regrow my curls after a pixie cut that i did after a major medical hair shed. And now I’m at it again after recovering from Covid.
I don’t want another pixie.
The shed has stopped. Finally. But the regrowth is only an inch and my entire head looks like shit.
Super helpful video. Great practical tips.
This was so helpful. Thabk you for the step by step!
I am so glad you exist..💜
Loved this video and all your videos! I have the same problem with my part that goes down the back and nothing I do seems to work. Sometimes I can diffuse it well enough to hide and get decent root lift and volume and then a half hour later the roots flatten!! Do you recommend any type of root spray? Also do you have a favorite regular hair spray which I like to use when I get my hair just the way I want it? I have learned so much from you💕💕
I find the Behairful brush covers the parting in the back the best because it's so dense! For hairspray, I like the Bounce Curl one: www.bouncecurl.com/collections/stylers/products/bounce-curl-alcohol-free-hair-spray?aff=6
Great video! This was very helpful!
So maybe I missed it, but I was curious on when exactly you should part your hair? When it's still wet? I read for best volume to wait until your hair is dry but that doesn't work for me.
What do you think of the hairatage protein treatment? Do you think it's just as affective as olaplex no. 3 or the curl Smith bond builder?
Never tried it!
Definitely find your tutorials very helpful. I have very similar hair to yours...though yours looks a whole lot better! 😉
Hello 👋 how are you doing today!
Are there any options that don’t involve brushing the hair? I would lose all my curl clumps if I brush.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today!
Any product recommendation for oily hair? I want to try your techniques but I think if I am constantly running my fingers through my hair it will make my hair too greasy. I try to touch my hair as little as possible. Any tips would be much appreciated! Thanks! Also, what is the name of the purple brush and the boar bristle brush you used?
Game changer video. Thank you!
This is really helpful but my issue is thin hair on top so when my hair curls you can see scalp, plus is is a completely different type of hair on top xx any suggestions ?
This was really helpful, thank you!
