Mell "We went over a lot of info today." So so true but this is important. I think I understand but I could be wrong so its ✔✔ First Phase Prep - 4:55 ✔✔ ✳Whilst hair is wet apply: 1. Moisturizing products e.g leave in condition. 2. Products containing glycerin or other humectants such as 2:17. Tip💡: On curly and coily hair brush evenly for best distribution but ensure looser curls or wavy textured hair is very wet first. ✔✔ Second Phase Style - 7:59 ✔✔ ✳ Section hair for better control then apply: 1. Curl enhancing/defining cream ( Note: it is okay to use products in this step which contain glycerin however ensure that in the poduct listing there are occulsive sealing ingredients that counter it such as petrolatum, mineral oil , coconut oil or dimethicone) 2. Gel or mousse for hold that contains polyquaternium-4 (Or these 10:24 really important for dealing with humidity) Tip💡: Define curls using denmin brush. Style using the 90 degree technique shown here I think. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmPVZXieerStbJY Tip💡: Dippity doo is lighter than the Aussie which has a heavier cream which is better for thicker hair. ✔✔ Third Phase Finish - 10:30 ✔✔ ✳ Begin hover diffusing I think this is the technique kzbin.info/www/bejne/iou8i3iilMisosU Pro tip💡: If humidity is high air dry inside. 🚨⚠ Don't forget happy hour while diffusing. Yes correct me if I am wrong Mell but I believe this is mandatory. ✳ Once dry apply final occlusive product. Tip 💡: Holy Grail for real humidity and thick hair 11:43 ✳ Scrunch and fluff. ✳ Refresh in a couple days. Get products that can be apply on dry hair. Now for bloopies💜💜💜💜💜 "Damm good hair day" True true 🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵 "You get the best of both worlds" Chill it out, take it slow Then you rock out the show You get the best of both worlds Mix it all together and you know that it's the best of both worlds Oh the nostalgia😅😆😢 🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵 "Purplefreak" Mel you know I want that superfreaky parody.

I second that! I'm just starting out with trying to enhance my naturally wavy hair and it's been trial and error so far. I have a lot of hair that's not really that fine, so I've always been generous with my products the way curlies are, but I'm finding that for my wave pattern, less is more. I also have stringy clumps at the bottom of my head that don't hold a curl the same way as the hair on the top. Any dedicated insight on type 2 hair would be helpful.

[@rainepanda]

This definitely shows that the "curly girl method" is not the only answer. You can use a combination of methods and products for your custom routine but not one routine is good for everyone. Mell doesn't follow the CGM an her hair looks amazing. The proof is in the pudding.

[@kellyortiz367]

[@lorrainemcgill5162]

My hair is more like your seester's, coarse, thick, looser curls. You mentioned that when applying leave in to apply to really wet hair and then brush it in for all over coverage but should I be applying my stylers to really wet hair also? I get wet frizz and it all goes to shit

[@nyhnen]

Do you maybe have some tips for more wavier, fine hair types? I always struggle with getting volume cause my waves/curls form mostly at the bottom of my hair. The rest just falls flat on my head

[@bronwenlowritew574]

fussfo definitely style hair upside down, put products in when the hair is soaking wet so the hair doesn’t get weighed down when drying. I avoid products with Shea butter and heavy moisturisers because my fine hair gets greasy and straight easily.

[@monas.6839]

Same here! Styling upside down helps to a degree, but it usually goes flat when my hair doesn’t quite need a haircut, but has gotten a little heavy since the last one.

[@sharroon7574]

I find sometimes my hair needs more protein and less moisture so styling products with moisture can help but also the right shampoo and conditioners. I mix my hair cream with water and spray it on so it's evenly distributed. It's a difficult balancing act for sure for our type. Maybe try finger coiling or the jump rope technique.

[@empoweringvitality2769]

I would love that! I have Curl type: 2B Hair texture: Fine density Porosity: Medium porosity hair.

[@AW-tv6nq]

I have longer thin hair that tends to be a looses curl/wave similar to Amanda. I have a satin bonnet but even when I sleep with it I wake up with curls that are stringy and often not even a natural curl pattern. The curls will bend at funny intervals or kink in weird directions. The only way I’ve found that sort of works for me is to plop my hair wet overnight in a t-shirt and then plop my hair dry? If that makes sense- the following days. Idk why my bonnet isn’t doing more for me. Please PLEASE give me advice, Mel or anyone else!

[@leilakabgrad123]

Sleep with a satin or silk pillowcase instead of the bonnet and tie it in a loose pineapple? Maybe don't scrunch out the crunch too much after putting gel on the first day to prolong the curls. I feel like if it gets wonky refreshing by gently wetting down the frizz with your hands (barely wetting it) and then putting some mousse might be helpful

Do you have any input on water quality and how it affects hair product choices? I live in Ontario and the hard water here makes my hair feel a little more coarse, makes my curl come out and stay in my hair longer. When I go back home to Vancouver each summer, the soft water makes my hair feel really soft, and I have almost no curl, and products behave differently. It can be frustrating trying to predict what types of products to use with the soft water, because I have been in Ontario for 18 years and have become so accustomed to the methods I use now on a daily basis. My hair is naturally normal/fine, Med thickness, wavy. Your Input on water quality and product choices would be appreciated.

I've been on my curly journey for about 3 years and I've watched A LOT of videos trying to figure it all out, and I have to say, I've had so many a-ha moments watching your videos, and I've learned more from you in this week than I have in the last 3 years. Thank you! I finally had a run of 2 successful wash and styles! That's anazing for me. I can finally wear my hair down most of the day instead of putting it in a bun on top of my head for 6 days until it's time to wash it again and have only 1 good hair day a week. I finally feel like I'm starting to know what I'm doing. Long way of saying THANK YOU!!!

[@efagough8602]

I literally never comment but I love your channel so much. You've taught me loads about how to care for and style my 3b/c curls. I had no idea I was doing everything wrong until I started watching your videos! Now I love my curls more than ever. Still aiming for your luscious curls and THAT VOLUME THO?!! Lots of love from London xxx

Hi Mel. I was wondering if you could make a video on a curly hair routine for mixed textured curly hair in a tropical climate. We have only have 2 seasons- rainy and dry. I don't know if my climate is humid or arid, but my hair suffers from serious frizz and I have tried switching up my product usage and routine according to your guidelines, but am still having frizz ruin my style by Day 3.

Finally at the age of 28 I’ve learnt to love my natural curls, thank you.

[@BlessedBrendee]

Great video...love your explanation of glycerin. THANK YOU.

[@emilyrivera5716]

I’d like to see DIY curly hair products

[@ManesByMell]

When I study to be a cosmetic chemist, I would love to DIY hair products. For now, I recommend leaving these things to the professionals 😘

[@isabellagrace340]

whoever dislikes your videos are just a bunch of haters.PERIODT

[@sarah.phillipa854]

Isabella Feliciano they are just jealous of her beautiful curls I think

[@noormahmood444]

I love how creative she is with her content and using catchy ways to help us remember things. You go Mell! Love your videos!

[@BLKA-nm7bt]

Most of these products you can't get in the uk! Please provide links on amazon etc for the UK not just USA and Canada please 😭😭❤️

[@cynthialees2760]

I have wavy girls will this process weigh down my fine curls?

[@sara.m88]

Yes, it may. It depends on your hair density and texture. I have fine thin hair and skip the curl cream. I only use a leave in and a mousse or lightweight gel. It's trial and error!

[@sonya0626]

Hi Mel, i have curly hair like your seester but not as much hair like hers. What budget friendly products do you recommend? Can you make a video for that? Thank you!

[@yadellnova]

Do you have a clarifying washing routine or can you make one please? 🥺

[@MoonLight-zm9sw]

I love your hair and you inspire me and my curl hair

[@Sheila20gold]

Love your vids, informative and funny! 😁 Can u suggest easy summer hair styles in one of the upcoming videos? Considering that curls have to last for a week?

[@skylardenson7971]

New to your channel😊( I’ve been binge watching all your videos) Do you think you could review Innersense and Briogeo? ( sorry if you already have and I haven’t watched that video yet lol)

[@ManesByMell]

I have been eager to try both of these lines so I im going to try them soon and will of course review 😍🙌🏻

[@skylardenson7971]

Manes by Mell Yay! Can’t wait!!!

[@joycekochman8115]

What is the lipstick you are wearing in this video. I love the color. It looks beautiful on you.

[@dumbgenious1960]

Watching this in the Walmart hair isle>>>>>>

[@laurenwarner5640]

🤣🤣 ‘she’s a purple freak!!’ 🤣🤣 I love the videos - always informative and fun but the bloopers at the end are just amazing 🤣🤣🤣 Never Change Mell your like an explosion of joy every texture Tuesday!!

[@sabinadzhaf2546]

Love your new hair tone👌

[@ManesByMell]

Me too 😍😍 I like my colour nice and natural looking!

[@outoftheklosset]

"Spring into curl cuteness" "Spring into wonder curls" 🤓😂🌷🌼🌿🐣✨ Question: do you need a special heat protectant if you use multiple products? Thank you for this video, Mel. If I may ask, would you please consider adding closed captioning to your videos so that more people can enjoy them?🤓 Auto captions aren't that precise and reading lips only works so well. I know that it would be really remarkable to have a hair guru on here make accessible videos.🥰🌷🌸🌿

[@tammydowell3723]

Thanks. I live in Florida where the dew points always around 70 or higher.

[@lancecochran1428]

Can you do a video on how to style and take care of short curly hair?

[@raajvishah]

So what your saying is I can use this in the winter- because an south Australian winter is always in the middle of conditions

[@royalya4759]

Hair length GOAL !!

[@jenniferades8492]

How would you handle year round dry climate? We live in a locale where humidity only gets to 50% if we are super lucky...and it rains for a week straight. We can't use products with coconut due to allergies, and we battle year round frizz...help?!

[@ManesByMell]

i strongly suggest you check out my playlist called Cold Curls! I share all about caring for hair in dry weather :) kzbin.info/aero/PLlgK3eS27-SWuxR9W_zXg8Bgyf3xugCl8

[@jenniferades8492]

@@ManesByMell Thank you so much we will definately check those out. Now we just need to get her under layer back to curling and we should be set...until she has to wear buns for dance again.
