I've been teaching my brother about curls thanks to your vids. He started growing his hair out during quarantine. He and I are the only curly gingers in our family and the curly community definitely helped me fix the problems with my hair that no one else could.

[@danielletoohey8193]

Im 37. Over the last year I have learned about my curls.

[@jenniferguevara2809]

I wish I had more curly friends so that I could share your knowledge with them. You deserve all the recognition and subscribers in the world ♥️🌹😓

[@GenaMarie]

Aww you're too sweet! Thank you! 🥰

[@yasmine2556]

SAMEEE! All my friends have straight hair, and only one has curly hair but it is more of 3b-3c and im mostly 2c and a bit of 3a

[@sc1123c]

I’m lucky, almost all my friends have curly hair. Just my best friend has straight/wavy lmao

[@lillyemo]

My hair some times become wavy and curly and super curly

[@lillyemo]

If you want we can be friends

[@queenofcamp832]

okay wtf where has this channel been all my life?! in school i used to straighten my hair to death every day because i was bullied for my frizzy 'hagrid' hair. now im 25 and STILL figuring out how to look after my curls. thank you for these videos!

[@simplyfitwithtara]

I'm learning so much! I had no idea my hair was actually wavy/curly until recently...for decades I just thought I had huge, dry, fluffy hair. I just had no idea I was pulling it, brushing it, and drying it straight. This is all so helpful and I see such a huge difference in the health of my hair!

[@seerchannah102]

I love your channel. These videos are so helpful.

[@rachellep2581]

Great video Gena, some very clever tips. As always thank you ❣️

[@Italianqueen1966]

Love it!! Thank ya Gena 🤗

[@livdelima6132]

So informative. Thank you really make sense

[@christubbs2614]

Excellent video, thank you!!!

[@curlgirl4265]

Gena, I am going to try these tips tomorrow on wash day. I have problems with frizz and this is super helpful. Thanks!

[@pattydecosta6160]

Thanks Gena. I’m definitely gonna try all your tips on my next wash day♥️

[@biscuit3834]

I’ve been styling my curls for roughly 3 years now and I’ve been doing the same things to my hair that whole time, now I’ve stumbled across this video and my hair has definitely changed for the better!

[@thayna1586]

I tried these tips, as well as your other videos' and it worked like a CHARM. Seriously, thank you so much.

[@ojosdepechicheonline]

Great info !

[@katinokotletai2994]

I never knew the mistakes I made washing my hair. Thankp for the video. It was he help

[@wickedwest89]

Will be trying out the condition, shampoo, condition advice!

[@kenzie7343]

This helped me so much! My great-gradma, grandma, and mom all had curly hair. But my mom never really gave me any tips on how to fix/style it. She has gotten my shampoo/condition for curly hair and other products from Rizzo Curls but never really and tips, so I would look on yt and tt for tips. This has bu far been the most informational video I have seen so far thank you!😌

[@babyted7901]

Finally a person who has the same hair type as me you are a god sent I love you so freaking much haha 😆 thank you

[@texantourguide]

you lifesaver. I always thought it was just the humidity but ends up a quick brush before a shower isn't enough to detangle, i need to condition before my shampooing which i never even knew was a possible concept lol. Hair grows a lot longer now

[@suzannejohnson206]

Thank you for more great curl care advice! BTW, I love that shirt!

[@GenaMarie]

Thank you!

[@5forhvn]

I used your methods and what a difference it made! Thank you!

[@justaddwater1227]

thanks i learn a lot from this video :).

[@hairhunger]

Beautiful shampoo video !!!! ...many more please ! ......

[@jessg.829]

So much great information! I love that you take the time to explain everything thoroughly. I look forward to learning from you every week. 😊

[@GenaMarie]

Aw thank you! I appreciate you watching each week. 🥰

[@Sugarfoot1271]

This helped so much, Gena! Especially the tip about washing and all upside down. I've been doing that lately and I've definitely noticed a difference but I didn't know why. It's the fuller cuticle. Thanks! Now I'm off to watch your 8 styling mistakes video 😊

[@GenaMarie]

Yay! Glad it helped. i get so many more tangles and more shedding when I do anything upside down, especially washing.

[@beautiful-moonlight514]

thank you I will try all theses next time ! Really helped me! I really did not know, all the others videos lied about COLD water for rincing....

[@gingersnaps5979]

I had no idea washing upside down would affect my hair! Wow! Thank you!

[@ElaEG]

I tried some of your tips yesterday when I washed my hair, specifically, dry detangling with an oil and applying a small amount of conditioner prior to shampooing. I also tried manipulating my hair less during diffusing, as I've observed that too much manipulation does cause more frizz (and I think I remembering you mentioning it somewhere). I tend to wash and style my hair in the evening and let sleeping on it (with a bonnet) break the gel cast. This morning I did have only a minimal amount of frizz, but my hair was also less full and less curly than usual. My hair does look good, but I like a fuller curlier look. I do appreciate your tips and will continue to tweak them till they work for me. This is clearly a work in progress. Thanks for your videos! 🙂

[@emmadionne264]

THANK YOU

[@hankahamidovic7859]

I have low porosity hair and my hair loves upside down washing, although the other tips sound very convincing. Will try!

[@candicefoy]

I never thought of washing upside down ! I always wash upside down because I really want to get underneath near the nape. Thanks for the tips :)

[@ilxveeunchqe]

thank you. i never knew about the conditioner on roots avoiding scalp 😊

[@5forhvn]

Love your videos! You have so much great knowledge!

[@GenaMarie]

Thank you!

[@5forhvn]

I have never owned a water spritzer until I watched your video. I followed exactly and had little to no frizz my second day! Thank you. I always seem to scrunch which in fact really makes for frizz!

[@xtinejoy]

This is the first vudeo I've watched from you. It's so helpful. I'm just new to curly hair washing method and I'm doing it wrong. Thank you so much!

[@GenaMarie]

Welcome! Glad it helped ❤️

[@arlenekanhai]

Gr8 tips 👍

[@Rootbeer1960]

Wow! I love these suggestions. Very informative. Thank you so much for all these tips to keep our hair strong and healthy. 🌹🤗👩‍🦱

[@GenaMarie]

Thanks! Glad it helped 🤗

[@Cat-no8ts]

I thought I was nuts when it came to conditioning my hair because I, too, was under the impression that when you conditioned your hair you were to not condition the roots because you wouldn't get lift or volume! I'm glad to know that even hair that is dryer, high porosity or lightweight, still needs conditioning even if it's just a glaze over. Also I was basically indoctrinated to wash my hair upside down probably since childhood, typically in the sink! But it's good to know that washing my hair in a vertical position, i.e. my hair in the shower, is actually better off because I'm following the cuticle and it means smoother, less frizzy results. Great video Gina. I'm glad I found your channel!

[@antoaneta70]

Awesome ❤

[@Irish9598]

Your hair looks like it's getting thicker! And it's definitely growing! Beautiful as always ❤️

[@GenaMarie]

Thank you! I feel like it might be too! 🙌🏼

[@emmagavars6385]

that was very helpful thanks i been doing most of those so no wonder i get really frizzy hair

[@julianna3162]

Hi, Gena! I hope you can make a video about trying out shampoo/conditioner bars for curly hair. I'm planning to switch and want to know your thoughts about it. Btw, love your videos! They helped me a lot in my journey. xoxo

[@LazyLlamaLoungingOnYourCouch]

Thanks for this! I am in a month of starting my CGM! This will be helpful!

[@GenaMarie]

You got this! 🙌🏼 I hope this helps!

[@sgd1903]

18 y/o male here, this video is super duper helpful, thanks!!!!

[@imyourhappydrug]

I recently started using conditioner before shampoo as well as after and it's a game changer. My oil heavy conditioner I was using when my hair was dry works perfectly to break up styling product residue before I shampoo. I now use a lighter conditioner after shampooing instead now that my hair doesn't need as much moisture :)

[@shannonepplett7890]

Just a clarifying question... you leave the conditioner in then shampoo, right?

[@imyourhappydrug]

@@shannonepplett7890 Mostly, yes. I drench my hair, add conditioner from root to tips, let it sit for a moment while I shave, make sure it is very wet again before adding shampoo for maximum suds, apply shampoo to the roots, use a gentle scalp scrubber brush under the flow of the shower while rinsing it out then apply conditioner from ears down and let it sit while I wash my face, squish to condish, gently do a final detangle of the hair with a wide tooth comb or tangle teezer and exit the shower to put my hair straight into a microfibre turban.

[@Aya-uj9td]

@@imyourhappydrug so you put conditioner twice before and after shampooing?

[@imyourhappydrug]

@@Aya-uj9td Yes if I have styling product to wash out, I do. If I have no stylers in but my hair needs a wash I will shampoo then condition as normal :)

[@Sam-uy5jq]

Me with pin straight hair: yes. top knowledge!

[@DebCampos]

Gina, this is such a helpful video! You explained a lot why for me having super low porosity hair warmer water and wet styling is the only way my hair absorbs product. Cold water and damp hair only make the products sit on top and build up really quick! PS: my hair tangles very little. Thank you Gina!!

[@brokenbutterfly3178]

I'm a guy. All my life I've just used shampoo. Once my hair is wet, I unable to run my fingers through em. Applying shampoo fixes that but as soon as I wash it out, my hair turns to glue again. I thought that was normal for everyone untill recently. There is no way I can style my hair when it's wet without pulling on and breaking alot of hair. Any advice?

[@annettearagon4493]

Thank you 🙏🏻 I also have been loosing a lot of hair idk if it’s due to Covid

[@TheNuggetShow2]

Such an interesting point on washing upside down. Everyone promotes it but I only find my wavy bleached hair looks terrible after I've done that. I can't leave conditioner on for long because it's uncomfortable and when I flick it back over the shape and tangle is just horrible. It always looks ugly 🤣 I'm going to try the conditioner shampoo conditioner tonight. I really struggle to get my top layer to wave. Its always frizzy no matter what I do, I'm blaming the bleach 😒

[@Moon-ci9ev]

I loved to know! I was doing everything wrong lmao and omg your face without makeup is so beautiful and young. I'm not the type to talk how someone should wear anything, but you could try more natural makeup like the korean ones to to the lips and blush

[@MyVintageLife]

Good tips, because lately my hair has been tangling into knots. I clarify once monthly, since I don't use other styling creams right now, other than a monthly protein treatment.

[@LilBitSyko253]

You might need a protein treatment

[@suneater_zeef050]

learned a whole lot from this video! super excited to keep improving my routine - and not let anyone make fun of me for using "girl products" this time!

[@lizmartin1844]

Hi Gena, love the video! Does the deep conditioner have a very strong fragrance? Thank you, Liz

[@GenaMarie]

I don't think its too strong, but I'm not sensitive to scents and they don't both me. :)

[@michelleosmond4356]

Also rice water is a game changer for healing & strengthing curly hair😉

[@tart7868]

What oil do you recommend for dry detangling?

[@EileenHoying1912]

Any hair oil to recommend? That can be used while detangling before shower and to scrunch out the cast after styling

[@veronicablack3976]

Love you!!! You have the best video's, for us frizzy curly headed girls. Can you just come do my hair please lol :) btw your curls are so evenly perfect, mine are part wavy/curly and sooooo frizzy! My hair is so confused.

[@sopherpoo]

wow i watched this right after a 2 week wash day

[@anne9134]

This is such a good thorough video, until you put the deep conditioner on. How do you rinse it out? In the sink with your hair upside down, like you specifically say not to do! I would really appreciate an answer please. I have only done this method once so far, but it really improved the frizz on my hair and I will definitly continue doing it this way. Thank you.

[@dianatorres6341]

Hi I love your videos but can you make a video about the cantu brand because I heard it makes your hair really dry and I don't want to risk damaging my hair

[@karengrove8785]

I'm going to try conditioner first and then shampoo

[@Nubesyxochis]

Is this conditioning-before-shampooing the same as using coconut oil on the ends before shampooing? And should the conditioner be applied on dry or wet hair?

[@shelbycavera5789]

What oil did you use when dry detangling?

[@jamesthesock1349]

I have low porosity hair, does this advice still apply to me? Like the conditioning before shampooing.

[@brendaarias5525]

What’s your go to oil for when you detangle hair before shower?

[@NinaRoxz]

I know I'm late to the video but I'm not understanding the issue with washing upside down. The hair is still falling in the same direction (root to tip at the bottom), just in front of your face instead of behind it... and you're still running your hands root to tip, the same way the cuticles go. The only real issue is getting it to fall naturally afterward (flipping it back).

[@ElaEG]

Had the same thought while washing my hair this evening. I don't shampoo upside down, but I often go upside down to distribute conditioners better.

[@kimmy2405]

What kind of oil would you recommend?

[@dudeitsstephanie]

What kind of oil do you use for dry detangling?

[@priscilliaippersiel3700]

What oil do you use?

[@zamiazakir726]

About the conditioning first then shampooing part applicable from straight , slightly wavy hair too?

[@Aya-uj9td]

is conditioning before and after shampooing necessary or should i just condition before shampoo.

[@sahisaya]

Do you wash the first conditioner (before the shampoo) out?

[@heidijasper5915]

What kind of oil do you use prior to shampooing?

[@rashahany6129]

Hi Gena Thank u so much for all what u do for us I wanna ask if i ll not buy this towel , is it better to use cotton shirt or microfiber towel to dry my hair🤔🤔

[@GenaMarie]

I would say a cotton shirt, but that's just my preference because its flat and doesnt have any fibers that stick up

[@aimeedipasquale4259]

What are things I can do to get less volume in my hair?

[@jenniecharles8133]

So when I condition my hair before shampooing do I rinse it out or leave the conditioner on my hair and shampoo with it in?

[@lorrainevanvelsor3655]

What kind of oil do you use to dry-detangle?

[@superfoodsmoothies]

Very informative video, thank you! Do you think it's ok to use conditioner or oil to dry detangle if you're using a cowash? I alternate cowash and shampoo. I thought it may not be fully removed on the cowash days?

[@GenaMarie]

Yeah, it may not be necessary when just using a co-wash because it's so mild anyways. You could either dry detangle first (with a little or no oil), or just apply a little cowash or conditioner to wet hair to detangle first, the cowash the scalp like normal.

[@superfoodsmoothies]

@@GenaMarie thank you 🙏Some co wash is a great idea!

[@hannahkeller2502]

Do you rinse the conditioner before you shampoo??

[@katoe4358]

Curly hair issue: never heard anyone talk about this. My curls will be elongated in the middle for whatever reason - weight, etc. but they’ll be ROUNDER and LOOSER at the ends. Hate it. Absolutely hate it. Ir ruins volume, concentrating it at the ends and contributes to triangle hair. What can help?

[@johannassburg]

Could it be the weight of the water? Like maybe try to dry it faster or something??

[@ishratjahan9305]

Is it okay that after shampoo and conditioner hair gets dry or moisturizer gone fast?

[@alphamemer9690]

if i have a perm , do these still apply as mines not natural ?

[@dudeitsstephanie]

When you condition before shampooing, you wash out the conditioner before applying the shampoo, right? Or no? I realize this seems like an obvious answer, but I like making sure 😁😅

[@unkn0wn_0ne1]

A question that I’ve always had is wavy hair curly hair? If yes, how do I manage it?

[@caratstayarmyblinkigot7onc489]

- untuggle hair with oil before bath, during bath with conditioner before washing - conditioner first then shampoo then conditioner -clarifying shampoo ( not too usually) - normally not upside down - dont skip conditioner -conditioning almist everything just not the inside in scalp. Just pass on top of the scalp with your hands -running fingers through hair to untagle. -deep conditioning 1-4 per months - (from twist) -use warm water. Not too cold or too hot -using cotton fiber to dry it out. Not common body towel.

[@caratstayarmyblinkigot7onc489]

Sorry just gonna add this to my notes! Thank you

[@tishaterry9886]

When you apply conditioner before shampoo Do you leave the conditioner in or do you rinse? This is excellent information love the tips and tricks. I started using Ouidad products 20 years ago and I’m very impressed with Twist and your detailed breakdown of what to not do and do. Thank you

[@GenaMarie]

No, I don’t fully rinse it out. I don’t think it matters either way. As long as you don’t use too much conditioner it should impact your shampooing. I just use a small amount

[@daphnen5296]

What oil can I use

[@chocolat5804]

gonna try this and come back some time after to say if it worked on me, I'm struggling to not have frizz

[@reaper0fmemes]

5:49 what if I use 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner or does it matter?

[@sierraedds6907]

Conditioner shampoo then conditioner again?

[@Fiyahgyal]

See I got wet frizz USING twist DC so I was thinking it was that cuz I don't get it with other products

[@amberboney4630]

Have you ever used innersence new detox mask as a clarifier instead of a sulfate shampoo ?

[@GenaMarie]

I haven’t tried it!

[@ashleylockett4436]

I have a question how do you take a shower when heat damages your hair do you take a cold shower or ? Sorry if this is a rude question

[@beckydiaz8981]

What kind of oils??
