Fabulous editing!! So many video shots! Killing it👍 Hope these girls show up for ya 😬

[@indigojonas3633]

Yes!! I love this video, i think it will help me so much with my curls while I'm still transitioning and after! I want more in this series please! I do have a question for you, how do you know when you're done transitioning?

[@Jordanlind12]

Yes please!!! ❤

[@rlet03]

Keep these videos coming!! So informative! And the editing!?! Soooo good!!

I LOVE this video and really enjoyed the suggestions offered for specific hair types.

Literally cried getting the notification to this video!! CANNOT WAIT to use the products I won on the giveaway!! You definitely hit the nail on the head with your diagnosis!!😮😮🙃 THANK YOU SO MUCH for helping me finally being able to start enjoying my hair to its fullest!!

So helpful! I'm learning so much about my hair! I wish I had all this information growing up as a child and even young adult but enjoying my curls in my latter years 💕💕

[@SuperBogey]

Yes! Please make this a series. My hair never comes out the same way twice and it's so confusing to me. After years of trying different products I finally gave up and went back to straightening. I'm just tired of feeling like I look like a foot everyday!

[@lyanagonzalez5599]

Hello kitt , I understand how you feel but that’s the beauty of curly hair is never the same and ik first hand how hard it is and i also have felt like giving up but eventually you start learning what works and even tho it never looks the same you learn to see beauty in the diffrent ways your curls look

[@PiinkPerfectionM8]

It’s never going to always look the same

[@bpicard08]

Mel, loved this. would really appreciate a series that included natural grey and curly/wavy older lady hair. (i would think the hormone changes have an impact on the hairs. thanks! love all your content

[@susanb5583]

I would love to be a model for this new (hopefully) series. I know your market is for the “younger” crowd, but we (slightly) older silver curvies need help, too!!! Thank you for always being there for us when we need help with the hairs. You are a beautiful person and always brighten my day! Big hugs from Texas ❤️🤗❤️!

[@the.curly.mermaid]

Ohkay, raise your hand if you want to see the girl's results with the routines she gave them now!! 🖐🏼🖐🏼🖐🏼

[@tiffsand9]

I have medium to thick texture with a lot of hair. I also have low porosity/medium porosity hair. I love the idea of creating videos like this! Its hard to find women who create KZbin videos that have similar hair to myself. It makes it easier when you create routines for curlies with different textures and porosities, rather than solely curl type ❤

[@MsLeeanne2010]

Loved this video, this would be an excellent regular series. !!! Thanks Mel. 😄😄

[@lydiawilson2723]

MEL!!! I was skeptical but I followed your recommendation for low porosity hair. It worked! My hair is Asian and African-American. Very thick and very coarse. I always thought I needed a lot of oil or conditioner in my hair. But you were right. My curl was weighed down. Now my hair looks so moisturized, it's soft and it's more curly. Thank you!!!

[@JorgeLuis80100]

I’m a guy and I’ve recently grew out my hair. I’ve never had long hair (I’m 28 atm) so this whole “taking care of your curls” is very new to me. I definitely want to improve my hairs health but no idea where to starts! I will definitely start be trying to figure out my hairs texture and porosity and definitely will be coming back to this video for recommendation 😍

[@AlethrialTheElvenEmpress]

Good luck to you! I’m 25, growing out my hair for the first time. I have more wave then curl, but it’s all very new to me as well

[@daftoptimist]

I’d love to see this become a series. Also I said “Yes!” out loud when you recommended it the Eva NYC mask; I’ve been using it since July or August and I love it. I believe my waves are medium-porosity (taking forever to dry), and fine-to-medium texture (doesn’t break very easily, but certainly not coarse). My biggest challenge is battling tangles and dryness after Day One, and fighting my climate which is always either too dry or too humid, never a happy medium.

[@froggywaffles9454]

your hair sounds very similar to mine, although i’ve got 3b curls our texture sounds about the same and my weather sucks too lol

[@Kimberly-grammy]

Oh Mell please keep doing this for a series!!! I need you! I also wish you could touch my hair and help me!!!! I’m getting desperate. I just can’t seem to find the right products. It always ends up horrible. Thank you for all the info. Keep it up girl!!! See ya next week

[@thats_crazy2175]

YOU ARE AMAZING!!! !I'm so tired of people on tiktok saying everything is bad for curly hair. This video really educated me. I had NO idea it was more about porosity than curl type. Now I know why I could never get my hair to look right. THANK YOU!!!!

[@ManesByMell]

This is why I’m hair, to educate and entertain!! I’m on tiktok too but clearly, I talk way too much for 3 minute videos. The things I hear people say on there is bonkers. Listen to professionals and you’ll be on your hairy way 👍 thanks for watching!!

[@cheyennelake1086]

Super helpful for my low porosity hairs. I’m hoping to do a vid of me using these products you recommended!!

[@mercedesstartzman2454]

I absolutely love this one! I work in ulta and I use a lot of the information I've learned in your videos to customers that are struggling with their hair texture and it is such a rewarding experience. My hair personally has always been a struggle. I color and mess with my hair regularly so it is medium high porosity and I have learned as I've gotten older that my hair isn't just frizzy and messy but actually curly and wavy with medium texture and a ton of it but I struggle with frizz

[@jacquelineisaac3685]

I have coarse, low porosity hair and I just tried the Twist shampoo. OMG my hair hasn't looked so shiny in two years! I didn't realize it had sulfates in it until after I used it, but apparently my hair was needing a very good clarifying. My curls also came back and I followed Mell's tips for volume video. My hair looks great. Mell always knows what I need. I'll be incorporating this sulfate shampoo once per week.

[@miasedrak6298]

Love you Mell!😄 You have totally transformed my 2c/3a curly hair!

[@ManesByMell]

I love hearing that thank you❤️❤️❤️

[@lyanagonzalez5599]

Same here i don’t think i comented this but I was the only one with curls and i had always struggled and hated my curls and hid behind blown out smoothed hidden curls to feel pretty until eventually I found the curly side of youtube and actually started not brushing my hair dry everyday and using product but it didn’t quite work and my hair didn’t look as good as i’d like and i would be so frustrated every washday and in tears thinking my hair was bad because no mather what i did i’d frizz until i found mell i had been tired of all the curly miss info and when i found mell her saying she was a professional stylist gave me hope like hey she won’t give me miss info she a professional and knows her stuff and slowly but surely following her tips , prep style finish , protein moisture balance, ph balance, finger coiling… my hair finally started looking better and it made me so happy and relieved and now im so grateful because my curls are so healthy and SHINE my hair would never shine in the past and is gotten so curly , when i started my curls were waves and now they somwhat tight and is so magical and for that I will always support and recomend mell , I have sent links to her channel to sooooooooooo many curlies from teachers to friends MELL IN MY HEART YOU SHOULD OF WON THE AAA AWARD sending love ONE OF YOUR BIGGEST FANS I STAN

[@viennacolmoc5935]

@@ManesByMell can you tell me what to say to a stylist to have them cut my hair like you cut Amanda's? Love you guys! Thanks for this video! I have medium por, med/corse textures with like a 3a/3b curls and was soooooo confused before you. My hair looks so much better. Now it needs shape!

[@widnastankewsky4589]

Thank you, Mel. I love all your shows. I have become emboldened to say goodbye to my Cher Hair (ironing my hair in the 70's, hot curlers in the 80's, wrapping my hair in t²he 90's and beyond until I discovered the amazing FLAT IRON. I NEVER, NEVER, EVER,EVER ALLOWED MY HAIR TO BREATH AND LET IT ALL HANG DOWN. Until now. But, here's the thing - I'm, uh, um, an older MATURE woman. I am post menopausal with thinning hair. All in all, its a mess. Can you please help me? SAVE ME MEL! P L E A SE!

[@kivzzzz]

From your haircut, hair colour, and hairstyle to your face, makeup, and personality. Mell, you're ✨ glowing ✨!

[@shanianigans2392]

Love this idea! Following you has made me fall back in love with my curls. I think I have low porosity and medium texture. My hair is the opposite of yours - looser curls on top and around my face then tighter curls near the bottom. Craves protein.

[@imeldaj2314]

Great video!!! Seems to make sense why certain products work better than others. I gotta check out some of the ones you suggested. Would love this to be a series, especially if you chose someone who is transitioning to or has gray hair. It's a different beast as I'm learning as I grow out my dyed hair at 39 years old (I started graying and dyeing in my late teens!)! Thanks for sharing your expertise!!

[@angelagarza9930]

This was SO helpful. I am a newly transitioning curly girl. All my life I thought I had semi wavy hair, so I straightened, blow dryed, used hot tools to get ringlets. In 2020 I had black dye stripped from my hair and damaged all my length. I started to nurture the damage and eventually cut it off. I started following your tips and low and behold, I have beautiful curls!! My hair is a crazy transformation to what it was a year ago. I have medium/high porosity and thick coarse hair.

[@annarborthenorris5455]

You are my absolute favorite. I love my hair because of your intelligent advice and example. Love this idea. I hope you feel better very soon. We need you two. You bring us joy, and happiness.

[@ManesByMell]

You bring me joy thank you so much for your loving support we are so happy to help you and your hairs ❤️❤️❤️

[@ikylm2121]

I would love to see a version of this video but for looser curls/wavier textured hair. My hair is coarse, high porosity, high density and wavy - I have no idea what to do with it!

[@joygirl3665]

This video is GOLD! I have low-medium porosity hair and I need a lot of hold to make it through the diffuser with some defined ringlets. I’ve been loving brush styling with the AG curl fresh definer, topped with a little Bounce Curl light creme gel! But my FAVORITE gel is the SheaMoisture coconut and hibiscus curling gel soufflé for the great shine and hold it gives.

[@JordanFaith]

This length is TOO CUTE on you with the half updos!!! 😍

[@lyanagonzalez5599]

Aw man this is so helpful for those of us who haven’t figured it out luckily thx to you lovely miss queen mell and lovely miss queen amanda i have found what works for me and im so happy and grateful , i’ve watched pretty much every hair influencer and the channel that actually helped me was this one best hair channel if you ask me and also mell these sit down videos and your insta stories inspired me to buy some David’s tea , i was a teavanna fan because my area used to have that store and since they went out of buisness i had been looking for a substitute , davids tea did the trick i love

Haha. I haven't figured it out 😅

[@lyanagonzalez5599]

Thank you Mell! All the ladies you featured are gorgeous (and their hair is too !) As a wavy-curly, I appreciate when you share tips for looser curl patterns!

[@malloryp8341]

I always thought I had low porosity hair because I have fine hair that’s prone to moisture overload, but my hair LOVES protein, so I guess I’m not low porosity 🤔

[@sccorde]

Of all the videos that you two have posted on this channel, this video has by far been one of the MOST INCREDIBLY HELPFUL!! I am blown away by how much I learned in the video, I've already sent it to three of my curl friends. Thank you SO much you two!! This would be an incredible series, I love bringing other textures and porosities into the mix!! As a curly girl with a mix of medium to coarse strands with low porosity, this was an absolutely amazingly helpful video. Thank you seesters!!! 🥰

Best curly hair channel ever 🥺 so thankful for you, Mell and Amanda.

[@LIIantonioIIL]

You have very beautiful hair

[@rlet03]

As CRAZY as this might sound, at 36, this past year has been a year where I have actually "risked" not using the products I have been used to, to wash & style my hair, & truly seeking something that is simply just better. A little back story on me, my hair, although I LOVE my curls, has always been an insecurity of mine because I was bullied from preschool up until high school, that remember of, because my hair was "different" & I was the only one in my family that has this type of hair. Therefore, my Mom didn't even know what to use, let alone, how to style my hair growing up, mainly because of its thickness. There have been many moments where I've been in literal tears because my hair turns into a frizz & it's almost as if I've put nothing in my hair. My Husband would just wipe my tears & assure me that we would find the right stuff, no matter how many products we had to buy. Mell & Amanda, you truly have no idea what this means to me. It's literally a life changing moment for me.🥲🥲🥰 Thank you!💜🤍💜

[@emilysometimes]

I'm the only curly person in my family, too. My older sisters used to use their curling irons to straighten my hair- I could smell it burning. :(

[@PurveyorOfTheOddThings]

I will just echo this whole comment. ❤️

[@stephaniewilson1479]

Felt

[@maureentoomey6521]

Yay! So glad you found them/they found YOU!!

[@mayradixon6822]

I can totally relate. My mom didnt know how to handle my curls. Ponytails all the time, brush time was so painful and the frizz is so out of control. I had the awful crown frizz, i'm sure you know what i'm talking about. It has been life changing having Mel and Amanda guiding us and embracing our beautiful curls. We are with you Arlette!

[@MrsBoochito]

Love this video! I’ve been following you since video 5 I think that you made. While my hair has DRASTICALLY changed since following your tips I still don’t know my exact hair porosity or texture 😫 I think I’m low porosity with medium texture. I also have one area that does not follow the rest of the curls no matter what I try. Frizz ball, no definition, gets dry after day 2. Anywho, keep on making these videos please! 💜

[@stephaniewilson1479]

Def going to try out some of those high porosity products!!! I was a natural blonde growing up, but as I got older my hair got darker, so I started getting highlights (from people who obvs didn’t know how to treat fine textured hair), and on top of that, around 2006 I started straightening my hair with the crappiest straighteners every stinkin day. I fried the 💩 out of my hair as I kept getting highlights. It wasn’t until 2020 when I found Mel and her advice changed the game for me. I get so many compliments now on my hair and how much better it’s doing. We’ve come a long way but still have a lot of repair to do. Thank you Mel and Amanda!!!! 💛

[@derrickjenniferwatkins1394]

The time and talent that went into making this video....wow! Great job ladies! Loved it!

[@itsamandapasceri]

Thank you!!!!

[@donnalayne2395]

Yes! thank you Mell! I couldn’t ever figure out why I wasn’t achieving hold I was putting to many moisturizing products underneath my gel. I am definitely going to try your tips

[@minnauyeda7339]

This was so helpful. I’ve got fine hair, and newly highlighted hairs. So I’ll be adding lots of protein and gentle cleansing. I have the twist light clarifying, the AG curl fresh defined, and Aveda be curly cream stylers, and set with ouidad strong hold gel, scrunching the crunch with verb ghost oil. All items I got because youYOU! I’ve always shied away from butters but I will try it now that I’m highlighted. Since surgery six months ago I’ve been losing hair in giant clumps, so now that I know fine hair is so much more likely to break I’ll be treating my tresses with extra tlc. Thank you Mell.

[@kpupio1006]

I’m also a medium texture and density with a low/medium porosity!! My hair is very similar to Maria’s with more of a wave at the root and curls are the end! Loved this type of video Mell!!

[@fathiabalgahoom3785]

Honestly this is so smart!! I really like the way you are tackling this topic. I had this really good hair day and I loved how my curls turned out but i haven’t been able to get it back to that place since

[@ManesByMell]

Thank you!! I’m glad it seems to be a hit! Document those good days❤️

[@Perpetual-Waffle]

Oh my goodness, the timing of this video is perfect. I have been struggling to find a new routine and have felt overwhelmed with figuring out mixing and matching the right products for my hair/goals-I needed this. 😭💕

[@fieryrouge]

Thanks for the video Mel and Amanda. Would like to see more videos like this. I like it when you show different price points. Happy Holidays.

[@reflastori]

im so happy i found this channel. it acknowledges all the nuances of caring for wavy/curly hair. im so over the cult-y cg world where they act like silicones and sulfates will kill you and obsessing too much on what their curl pattern is. i stopped trying to distinguish mine cause the pattern is different for all 10 hair strands that ive checked in one seating

[@desireerodriguez7601]

GURL PRETTY PLEEEEAASE with a cherry on top and all the fixins continue this as a series!! So many helpful curly nuggets you put in here. I'm in the NY metro area, and seeing as you are our wonderful Canadian neighbor what I would think to be an amazing thing, is if one day you decided to do some type of pop up here so that way you COULD get your hands on strands (and by strands i mean MINE) so we can get that proper Manes by Mell curly diagnosis and love. I THINK I have low to medium porosity and definitely fine texture with a mix of few waves as well as ringlets. And the house we moved into definitely has hard water so that's had a fun effect on my hairs...

[@katiemelton5444]

These types of hair videos are so helpful! I will definitely be looking for more videos with my hair type. I started my healthy hair/curly hair journey in August and the seesters videos are what has helped me get where I am today. My hair type is fine and medium porosity. Mell and Amanda, you are amazing!

[@gwendolynmcmillian4309]

I absolutely love your videos! I’ve been natural since 2013 and I STILL struggle! I’ve tried so many products & techniques but my strands refuse to be behave. I really like the different textures that you showcase, but how about adding a few ‘mature’ women for the 50+ ladies that follow you as well? Over the years my texture seems to have changed a little (as well as sprouting a few well earned natural highlights-aka grey hairs!) and I would love to be your first volunteer! You are fantastic, keep doing what you’re doing!!

[@angieduran5761]

Can you make a video on how to sleep with your curls? I always get really bad knots and I’ve heard it’s because of how I sleep with my curls.

[@minnaventola1023]

Thank you for this video! Very exciting theme, indeed. I'd love it to become a series. I have fine hair, medium density, porosity that is more to high than medium. This I have learnt from all of the tips on your channel how to find out, thank you so much for that, too! still much to learn, and I have yet to find the best possible products to my hair. Also, when I am a minimalist and want to keep the routine as simple and quick as possible. With full-time studies/work and family with children (hobbies to take them to several times per week plus all household stuff) I do not usually have time to use several hours for wash day routine.

[@SS-td9wd]

I had the clarifying shampoo from Twist am I love it. Thanks for another mask I can try. I have purchased the verb ghost shampoo and conditioner can wait to try it

[@laexploradoraaaXD]

Thank you for this video. I need to stop using creams and just stick to gels. I have low porosity, medium/coarse wavy/curly hair. I just got the Verb ghost prep and I'm excited to use it. I first stumbled across the Eva NYC line at Costco, of all places, and fell in love with that mask.

This is an awsome series with a ton of content. There are soooo many beautiful types of curls out there. I bought the AG curl fresh Definer and I get the best curls every time hands down. Love your content. Thanks for all your help.

Your hair looks amazing on this video Mell!!😍

[@aleynamack7898]

This would be such an amazing series. I feel pretty good about figuring out what my hair needs, but my friends always ask me for help too, so seeing different routines for different hairs is super helpful.

[@christina6254]

Yay! Texture Tuesday! I love this one! I’ve gotten so many good products from your recommendations & now I might get a few more 😂 My hair is medium texture & high porosity (I volunteer!) Your videos have taught me to be aware of the changing needs of my hair & it’s always fun to try different routines. My hair is SO much healthier thanks to you, Mell! Thank you for being hair for us all!!!🕉

[@tessaleathern4471]

This is awesome! I try following so much of what you recommend so often and while it works I never feel like I found that “holy grail” routine. I can’t wait to try the products mentioned in this video that match my hair type! Please keep doing this series it’s awesome!

[@Nicole-vn7id]

I love the idea of this series! I learned more about products I mights I have missed or forgot about. I love how your breaking it down is so helpful. I think I have between low and medium hair porosity and texture. My hair loves the twist products. When starting the curly hair journey I saw girl using thick, moisturizerizing products and using so much gel and over time I think my hair was getting weighed down and suffocating lol. Until I found your videos and learned less is more. And just use less of product and maybe using thick products aren’t good for my hair. The balance these products give is so nice! Keep this up!I recommend your channel to so any people.

[@sophiaaloeristok]

Okay this was so extremely helpful. Comparing the hair types with explanations omg so freakin helpful ❤️❤️

[@sannisanninen]

thank u so much for this great video!! Mell that hair color looks AHMAZING on you!! Love it

[@pattydecosta6160]

Happy texture Tuesday!! I think this will be a great series. I hope you continue. I’m always watching and learning so much from you. I try so many products you suggest and love experimenting. I’m waiting for the day I find the perfect routine!

[@cheriemahoney4739]

Hello! Me & my beautiful curls are so glad we found you .. I couldn't get my hands on the evanyc mask, but settled on the leave in conditioner - OH MY word, my hair was simply starved of protein and I can't believe the difference & seems to get better with ever use... I want all the things for fine hair

[@lngislgirl]

I have fine and high porosity hair. I been struggling with the right amount of product for my hair. I noticed that I continue to have split ends, frizz and can't last longer then three days. Hopefully with your great advice I can get my hair healthier. Thank you both for all your hard work.

[@amandabuise259]

Hi Mell and Amanda, first of all thanks for all your helpfull information and skills! It has been life changing for me 😍Nonetheless I keep on struggling to find the right products and routine in order to get those luscious and bouncy curls. After seeing many different combinations of hair characteristics, mine seem kinda contradictory. I've got very fine hairstrands but a lot of them, while being low in porosity. So I would say high density, but since the strands are so fine you are still able to see my scalp quite good. For an overall view it might be good to know that I'm caucasian/indonesian and we've got an oceanic climate over here, so mild wet winters and cool wet summers. Probably needless to say I'm very curious what your product/routine recommendations would be! Thanks again and greetings from The Netherlands! P.s. I'd love if you guys would continue these series! ❤Also wouldn't mind being one of your models so other curlies with similar characteristics can get benefit of it.

[@ginaq9671]

Loved this! Would love to see more videos like this. I found a routine that worked a year ago but now that my curls have “healed” from years of flat ironing daily, my current routine isn’t working as well. Add in post partum hair loss!

[@kassandrakhouri5242]

Love this! It really helps to figure what would work for for you when a video highlights different textures. I would love to see some girls with similar texture and porosity but different densities. As someone with fine low density (can almost see my scalp in some areas) waves/curls, I find it hard to figure out how to get volume when more of the girls on IG and KZbin have higher density hair. Would love to see more content with that addressed ❤️❤️

[@jmhoff2ns]

Can you please do gray hair? Graying hairs? My grays are super coarse but my browns are medium…so 2 sets of products on the different colored hairs?

[@cristinadiaz6685]

Omg that would be an awesome series. Doooo miiinnneee next. I know my curls/waves are in there but they're lazy. Help a sister out. 😍😍😍

[@madisongalejessop3106]

I absolutely adore this video Mell! Thank you for all that you and Amanda do for us!

[@ellapavlechko571]

Love the idea to have this as a series! Just started my curly hair journey a few months ago, and your videos continue to give my curls life! Would love to see someone with my thin, high-density, medium-porosity hair next!

[@katiemelton5444]

Me too! :)

[@Aiusagi]

Love this. My hair type is medium thickness high porosity. I struggle with volume (especially on my crown).

[@paytonp.6387]

YES!!! Pleaaassseee make this a series!! Xoxo

[@blakeweston9105]

Thank you for breaking down the routines, this has helped me tremendously. It’s given me the knowledge for choosing products and understanding the “why” for each! My hair is very similar to, fine and high porosity.

[@rebecasantacruz5886]

I have a lot of very fine curly hair that gets weighed down at the scalp very easily. Thank you! What I’ve learned from you has resulted in my hair looking better than it ever has in all my 61 years! On a rainy day where my hair got lightly rained on it did not freeze! WOW! I am still tweaking my routine to try and get the best results. I have found the Twist product line affordable & I’m trying different combinations. I don’t use hairspray a lot but would love a suggestion from you. Should I stick with the Twist product line?

[@taylorpatterson2944]

This is such a fantastic idea! I've been dying for something specific like this. I have medium porosity, fine/medium hair with some super coarse bits in the front. My hair is hella curly and so healthy bc of you but I haven't found that absolutely perfect routine or product combo just yet. Have a hard time getting my hair to last beyond day 3

[@juliekegley9181]

Love this! Fine, high porosity. Happy that I already have most of the products you recommended. I’m obsessed with Oribe tho.

[@rosewithrow2829]

Love this! Super helpful to get specifics for an individual's hair. Please do one for fine, low porosity (2c/3a) hair that a body can't make last more than one day! I have a baby now so if I could get a week out of a wash day, that would be great! I've just been straightening it since that currently lasts longer...

[@klb755]

I'm 31 and am just starting to learn to love my curls! From what you said, I think I have fine and high porosity hair, so I'm going to try some of the products you recommended!! Thank you so much for doing a video like this. I loved it!

[@kendralynn2490]

AWESOOOOOOME vid Mell, thank you!! I dentified most with our Medium Queen; really looking forward to trying the recommended products. And yes, this would be a BOMB series!!

[@Hoid1990]

Omg I love this! More videos like this please! Such a great idea, especially from an actual hair stylist!

[@sydneyvillavicencio3865]

This is such a great idea. I'd love to see more! I have low to medium porosity hair. Medium density and a wavy texture. I find that my hair has no volume, possibly because of its weight and length (I have long hair). It also gets frizzy really easily, and I've tried to use harder hold products, but then it makes my hair stick to my head. You have really helped me figure out how to work with my hair and make it the healthiest it can possibly be. Thank you!❤

[@JuliaJohnGirl]

Yes! Loved this! Would love more, too! I’m on my third straight view, and it’s waaay past my bedtime, but I keep being distracted by Amanda’s oh-so-excellent editing, and then being entertained-LOVED the octopus fingers demo on high porosity hairs, Mell! Bye for now, gotta watch again and this time, I’m taking notes!

[@vsquared30]

I am HAIR for this! I've always loved my hair but didn't really know how to care for it in a way that enhances what I have (read, I used basically nothing outside shampoo/conditioner). Until I found your videos by chance at the beginning of the pandemmy. I've learned SO MUCH from your content. My hair is on the finer side of medium and low porosity, but higher density. I've gotten better, but I generally struggle with volume, and don't get me started on these dry Wisconsin winters!

[@lynzicollins8131]

Happy Texture Tuesday! So excited for this video!! ❤️

[@michellestewart1459]

More please!! 😍 I know I have fine and thin hair but I'm still not sure on my porosity 😕 I tend to have more of a greasy scalp but it's gotten better since switching to silicone and sulfate free hair products, point is I can't tell if the greasy hair is what resists the moisture especially towards the top or if it's porosity. It's always frizzy from like mid to upper shaft and down (which when I diffuse i don't mind cuz it helps it look fuller lol if that makes sense) it tangles easily and takes longer than expected to dry, especially in the crown and nape area. It's so confusing 😭😂 I know I need a major cut but I want to get my routine down so I can help it stay strong and healthy so I can at least have a bit of healthy length. 🙏 you girls rock! Thank you for all your vids! ❤
