CURLY HAIR FOR BEGINNERS: HOW TO START YOUR CURLY HAIR JOURNEY

[@AT-nz4vs]

This is exactly what I need to watch just now! I feel like giving up on my wavy hair.. some parts are literally poker straight and I have no idea what to do. Also, day 2 hair is a mess with literally no definition, HELP😔

[@hanzcurls]

It can take time to see changes but you’ve just gotta keep at it! It may be worthy using a stronger hold gel. Also make sure you are protecting your hair overnight. I sleep on a silk pillowcase with my hair in a pineapple

[@Tinyturtletami]

Also check out hanzcurls video on refreshing curls the next day! That has helped me

[@AT-nz4vs]

@@hanzcurls thanks for the tips and encouragement. I've watched all your videos (amongst others) and feel like I'm getting no where. I received a huge Noughty order and saved some money thanks to your code also, so I'm hoping these aid in my journey now😊x

After watchinv yoir video I went and bought a full Noughty haircare regimen. ONE WASH and there is already CRAZY improvement. All i did was scrunch in the prodcuts, no heat and no styling, and my curls are so much more defined! Love these products already, cant wait to use mire and see how my hair continues to improve! Amazing i am so excited

[@hanzcurls]

So glad to hear this! I love that brand!

[@nataliabla1249]

just started this a week ago and i already see by wawy hair turn more curlier😍

[@DaemlichesStueck]

I have just come to the realization that I might have wavy or curly hair... I'm 32 and I've just been caring for my hair as if it's straight. I have fine hair, but with super high density (I have enough hair for like 3 people) I just noticed that my hair, when I let it air dry curls slightly. And that it's poofy when I blow dry it and brush it. So IDK, it gets mostly straight when brushed and blow dryed but it's dry and poofy...

[@linabean007]

Oh my goodness, this is so helpful!! I have a regular hairdresser who I love, but she cuts it wet, and I have just recently started back on my curly hair journey again to get my curls back. I love that you made a list of both what to ask for with a curly hairdresser, and a regular one!! SO HELPFUL!! Thank you!!♡ (Also, my sister has similar colored hair as you! Love your hair and curls!! You are so beautiful!)

[@dianamontalvo3714]

I don’t have curly hair I have wavy hair type 2 A 2 B trying to wear my hair natural ! Mine is medium i need a lot of moisture 😫It’s so hard I get a lot of frizz and I get bad tangles if I don’t comb it ! It’s kinda overwhelming you are right so many products out there , My hair is chemical damaged I have highlights so I need products that will also treat and help with that! Any more recommendations besides what she tells us in the video?! Need help 🙂🙂

[@user-cs1uv4pm9v]

You have described my exact hair haha. have you tried anything that helps? Xx

[@rachelcrowe4555]

I’ve always thought that I had a coarse or thick hair type but I did the thing you said with putting it between my fingers and now I think it might be fine and I just have a lot of it. That would explain why most of the curly hair products I’ve tried have weighed my hair down and made it feel greasy.

[@rebekahcroft3395]

This is soooo helpful! I think that we have pretty similar hair type and density and I'm a ginger as well! I'm so excited to commit to taking care of my curls and I just put in a massive amazon order for a bunch of goodies and accessories to get me started! Can you do a video dedicated to how you refresh your hair? I see everyone talk about refreshing all the time but I think it would be helpful to see a more in depth how-to style about refreshing on day 2-3, etc. I love your energy and passion for hair and can't wait to see what other videos you come out with!❤️

[@StormyDay]

Think about this: when I was young, every shampoo had harsh sulfates and there were NO products for curly hair. ZERO.

[@samanthagibson2030]

I have noticed that after I put gel in my hair (on a wash day, after curl cream), there is this white buildup on my hair.... Is it possible that products don't play nicely together?

[@zieuc964]

I had really nice curls as a kid, probably a 3A but around the age 4-5 they slowly fell out and my hair got super straight. But about a year ago I noticed after I’d shower and my hair would dry it was VERY wavy. And then when I’d brush it out it get super frizzy and it looked awful :,) So I know I have curls and I really hope this can help me get them back!

[@kiwi8475]

[@lewami05]

I find my hair loses a lot of definition and get some frizz overnight. My hair is shoulder length as I just had it cut. I’m guessing I need a satin pillowcase!

[@ecdewey1992]

Love how simple and to the point your videos are xxx

[@gilldonne-davis9808]

Thank you for this informative video! I got very overwhelmed at the beginning of my curly journey but have found less is definitely best! Try not to compare your curls with others as all curls are unique just like you 😂❤️

[@Tinyturtletami]

I love this video! Very useful. Also I cannot figure out my porosity so I'm glad you aren't sure either and it's not that essential when buying products. I started out with cantu products and I don't think they are working for me.

[@ivn2022]

I got a customized shampoo and conditioner from Prose and I still cant figure out my hair 😭😭😭😭😭 its soo hard to find what works and what yout hair needs

Yay! Glad it helped you 🧡

[@joannaburcham9566]

How often do you wash your hair?

[@kylagladstone9737]

PLEASE HELP! Just starting my journey and have a burning question. I am a very active person and hit the gym everyday. When I workout, I sweat through my whole head. Like it literally looks like I got out of the shower when I'm done. This means that I have to wash my hair after every workout. Do you need to style your hair every time you wash it? Does the gel add to your hairs health? Or is it just for aesthetics? If its just for aesthetics, should I just skip this last step until I am going somewhere? Typically I'm just going to the gym and throwing my hair in a ponytail anyways.

[@cathje832]

What you could do is just rinse your hair with water after you worked out. Then you just put some curl cream in your hair. You can plop/diffuse. I only use curl cream and gel after washing (shampoo). Gel is to define your curls but there are gels that do more for your hair. I use a flaxseed curl gel from Aunt Jackie's. It's really nourishing. You don't have to use gel. And if you do use it you don't have to use a lot. Especially when you have fine hair like me. I just use a little to scrunch in my damp curls after i used a curl cream.

[@missjaninemorgan]

Just ordered the boucleme towel. I find microfibre soaks to much water out of my fine hair and causes frizz

[@adamsgeckos7165]

I love this towel, really happy with my purchase

I cant tell if my hair texture is medium or coarse but i know for sure it's not fine 😢

[@jodiebutcher2543]

Thanks for being approachable and helpful with your suggestions.

[@Miss2ndEdition]

I used the Asiam co wash. I'd mention that you do need to use something more clarifying regularly. My hair started to fall out when using it for a long period of time.

[@barbarapasillas534]

Is casting curly hair good technique?

[@emmalander1905]

Definitely going to be trying some of these products - I recently got the Giovanni one on a whim as I was getting low on the umberto one and it made my hair sooo dry, going to give it another go in case I just used it wrong but will definitely be checking out the boucleme ones as well!

[@laurasearch4155]

Hi I have natural curly hair, I use a tooth comb and curl Smith products. I would like to know how to add volume to the top of my hair? I don't like using tools to dry my hair just naturally dry it.

[@cathje832]

You could try a hair pick. You use it to create volume at the roots. I love it. After your hair is completely dry you lift your hair up at the root with the pick. You can find video's about how to do it on KZbin.

[@katebrandt4064]

Well I guess I know mine is fine and medium-high density if every hair stylist I’ve ever been to says without fail “your hair is fine but you have a lot of it”? The porosity is something I’ve never heard of… but it makes total sense. Thank you for not charging $325 for this. I’m sure the money is worth it but it’s not in the cards for anyone. ❤

I am a straight-haired momma to a curly haired boy who decided to wear his hair long. It has been a battle because he refuses to wear his hair up and he's in every sport imaginable lol. So we have been locked in a war of tangles and matteing. There have been a few times I've threatened to cut it all off in frustration because he doesn't take care of it; but after watching your videos I realize that I've been approaching his hair all wrong out of ignorance. Thank you so much for all of this information! I'm going to have my son rewatch with me so we can discuss the best course of action of how to take care of his hair.

[@kimvanvoorst2032]

I just started my journey but it’s weird because I had to much moisturizer and my hair was still frizzy and very very soft because it needed proteïne

It's been a month but i feel like i have been doing everything wrong

Can the cream or gel makes the hair more frizzy if it is not suitable with our hair? Because I notice that my hair becomes more frizzy after I used leave in conditioner compare to when I not use it.

For curly hair - curly hair that’s dyed usually just needs a bit more moisture and sometimes more protein
