Your hair is gorgeous!! I have 2c/3a curls and I bought a denman a few weeks ago. I’m still experimenting with it but so far your technique gives the best results in my opinion. I’ll have to try it my next wash day ❤️
Thank you so much Love ❤️Oh that's so exciting!! Yeah I have used that technique a few times now with amazing results!! The only problem I have with it is my hair is usually pretty flat on top so if you figure out how to avoid that let me know:)
MJ Lifestyle you’re most welcome 😊 I did a similar technique to this one, but only with thicker clumps. My hair is thick and long so I’m guessing it would take me ages to do any of these denman techniques. Although I had the same issue. My roots fall flat. I’m going to try and scrunch them with some lightweight moose after using the denman so they have some volume. It also helps to fluff out your roots. I’ll share with you when I have a technique that works ❤️
@@Angie-bc7df Ahhh yes the joys of thick hair! I did a tutorial on my friend with the Denman brush (I have it on my instagram) and she has the thickest hair I've ever seen!! And that whole process took about 45 mins so it's not too bad😂 I have never tryed mousse before... What brand do you use?😉
MJ Lifestyle I’ve used Perfect Touch curl defining curl moose, but I’m not sure if it’s available where you live (I’m from South Africa). Maybe try the Not Your Mother’s moose? I’ve seen many youtubers use it and loving it 💛
Very pretty! Though you don't need a denman to do that. I used to wear my hair like that (we have the exact same hair!), but by flat twisting around my finger to make ringlets, then defusing. I got bored of that after a few years, then started brushing it out to make big body waves (which inevitably clump into ringlets again). Now I go for a slightly more relaxed look, (but perfect spiral), by rinsing the conditioner from my hair, with my head upside down, while gently coaxing the hair into clumps, then scrunching and plopping. Any pieces that don't clump, I flat twist twice (this clumps but encourages the natural curl pattern, rather than coiling the whole strand), then dry upside down. I don't use product when the hair is wet (no more frizz), except for coconut oil on every curl after it's dried, and some texturising spray. Hair stays cleaner for way longer, curls stay bouncy, and you only have to wash once a week!
Your hair is very similar to mine so I’m glad I found this video! I have denman brush so I will definitely try what you’re doing as I might now have been doing it properly , thanks!! x
The results were beautiful!!! I have thick hair & a lot of it, and I just started my hair journey 3 months ago so I’m still finding out what works for me, and trying to repair it from 3 years of bleaching it so I’m not sure what my actual curl pattern is yet but most days I have a mix of 2b, 2c & 3a but I find that by day two, my hair is so knotty, especially near the nape of my neck, how can i combat this?
Thank you so much :) Haha thick hair is the best... a lot of my friends have thick hair and styling their hair is so fun (even though it does take a long time) The more you take care of your natural hair the more it will come out and it will also become more consistent. My hair took about two years and now almost all my curls look similar and almost every wash day it comes out looking the same! Regarding the knotty hair one of the biggest things that would help with that is investing in a silk pillowcase. That is been a game changer for me and i think it would really help you. How often do you wash your hair and also what products do you use on it?
Wow you just described my hair,your the first perosn that I've come across that has my type of hair and I'm so happy ☺☺anyways when I was little I use to have all 3a curls and now I have 2b-3a and I'm working on trying to figure out what works best for me so day 2 my hair is not all knots and I will have to end up brushing it out!!
@@iiaxaaa_ Yeah there is a shortage on youtube with our hair haha!! What kind of hairstyle do you do when you sleep and what kind of pillowcase do you use?
Thank youuu!😊This brush has made a world of difference with my curls!!

This is very interesting! A lot of other RUclipsrs I'd watched do Denman brush reviews preach about turning your brush the way your curl pattern goes, which is a nightmare for me because mine turn completely at random, so I would have to mark every single one and the direction in which it goes. But it looks like your curl pattern did not break even though you alternated between going towards your face and away from your face?
I have seen those videos as well haha I have found tho that my hair dries in the way that I twist it with the denman brush. However if I use my fingers to twist my hair then I find that the curls do whatever they want. so the denman brush really is key
Which Denman brush are you using?? I only have like 2a and if I am having a great wash day, it’s a 2b, so I would love to try the method you used to see if I can get similar results because your hair looks amazing!!
Thank you so much :) I am using the 7 row brush! The trick to getting your hair more curly is to use a good hair gel! What kind of products do you use to style your curls?
It took me about 30 mins! And I usually put my hair up in a pineapple overnight and then to refresh I wet down my hair, scrunch, apply a little gel and then air-dry :) Thank you!!
I will do a video on this! But basically I just put my hair in a very hair pony tail loose with a soft scrunchie :) and if the top is flat in the morning I wet it down with some water, scrunch and let it air-dry. Hope this helps!
The brush doesn't want to slip through my hair, gets all caught in it and I can't really twist it 😑 my arm gave up in the end haha your hair looks great
Have you tried detangling your hair in the shower? You can do it right after you apply conditioner and you will have limited pulling and resistance. I usually use a detangling brush if my hair is too knotted. Thanks so much :)
Generally you want the curl closest to your face to roll away from it... this helps with framing your face and also it is more likely to stay out of your eyes then! But honestly it doesn't really matter. You can do whatever make you feel like the boss you are :)
Can anyone help... I have wavy but curly in some spots hair, which when I scrunch after the shower goes quite curly, however when it dries it goes quite kinky and ratty losing the shape of my curls. Any tips?
products. Trust me I know they seem pricey but tbh there are drug store options that are cheap and work just as well. They help keep the curl and diffusing (a form of hairdrying helps too) hope that helps x
The difference between denman curls and finger curls is just based on your preference and whatever you find most convenient. The curls look different depending which method you use, I can create a video on that if you are interested in seeing the difference on my hair!
difference is that is works wit just brushing it, not the way she does it. that gives you the natural curles or waves. the way she does it, you can do that with any brush or finger.
I usually just put it in a loose pineapple ponytail with a scrunchie! Here is a video explaining how I sleep with my curls: ruclips.net/video/Hxwi7R9Ztn0/видео.html
MJ Lifestyle okay cool. I think I am going to do every other row (I took out the two on the outside and my hair kept getting caught so I think having more room between rows would help. I really like your results though so I might try it with all of the rows too! Why not? Lol
@@mariejoylifestyle look into it how you suppose to use it, the handle is to hold not to curl otherwise you could use like everything to do that. if you use it the "normal" way you'll have more natural curls instead of a curl iron coupe. I mean you can do whatever, but this brush is designed to only brush it with a slight twist at the end. and let your curls form naturally instead of making them around the handle
@@mariejoylifestyle not really you used it for the first time here like it says , but you curled it all around the handle instead of just brushing it 🤷♀️ but that's ok love the curls though.
This is how I've been using it and it makes the most beautiful ringlets in my 2a-2c hair. Much more defined.

Thank you!! 😍It took me about 1/2 an hour - 45 mins... But that was also my first time so it may go quicker as I get the hang of it!😉

Thanks:) I appreciate that so much ♥️
The brush doesn't want to slip through my hair, gets all caught in it and I can't really twist it 😑 my arm gave up in the end haha your hair looks great
probably need more leave in conditioner or curl cream

Stunning!! I can’t believe it works like that. I’ll be your next model if you wanna try it on me!!😜😇

We literally have the same hair
Haha I love it! What length is yours?
What brand of hair gel do you use for your waves?
I use the "Spiralicious Gel" by Jessicurl!
how do you wear your hair at night to preserve it?
I usually just put it in a loose pineapple ponytail with a scrunchie! Here is a video explaining how I sleep with my curls: ruclips.net/video/Hxwi7R9Ztn0/видео.html
Do you still use all of the rows or did you end up taking some out?
I just use all the rows! is taking them out you do for your styling routine?

It's a light brown and I have never dyed it.
@@mariejoylifestyle it's beautiful
I laugh at the teeny tiny dollop of curling cream you used, I must learn to have that kind of discipline
I don't have a lot of hair so that works for me... so you do you bud 😂
Lovely hair...pls lemme kno your haircut
I just asked for a shoulder length cut with layers and bangs!
Not using it right sorry
it worked for me. But cool that you have a different technique
I've seen, at least, 3 different techniques used with this brush. I doubt any are wrong, just gives different results for different hair.
@@lauragossert6282 Yes exactly!! The key is having an open mind 😊
that's what i thought, it should work with only brushing it with a slight twist/bend at the end
wth is she doing with that brush.... not how it works though XD
