Your Hair DOESN'T Hold A Curl? WATCH THIS!!!

[@ritastutler1470]

Love that you understand us fine, thin, limp hair people.

[@ETG316]

I’m watching this video because my hair keeps falling out after I paid to get it to curl but my hair is thick.

[@Sarah_Spang]

If you get any hate in the comments for your tips, those people obviously don’t understand thin, fine, healthy hair and how stinkin hard it is to get it to hold a curl. Everyone these days has thick, over processed, textured, dry hair and then there’s the 1% of us that don’t. I wanted texture and dry hair sooo bad I would get super curly perms to achieve it ha!

[@caralynn7807]

This is so me…

[@1111fairy]

Yup! I get it bleached and re dyed to my natural color just to give it texture

[@bobbieandowenhill5690]

I have thick coarse textured hair & mine doesn’t hold a curl unless I use a beachwaver

[@caseymathis1921]

Yes! I used to bleach my hair every few months to make it “thicker” lol

[@lynndavinci4753]

It’s not just thin hair. I have very thick, coarse hair and a LOT of it, and it’s naturally straight and just won’t curl. It’s too heavy.

[@floraidh4097]

I remember getting my hair done as a bridesmaid and the stylist grumbled under her breath 'Your hair's just so healthy!' she spent forever curling my hair and it barely looked like it styled by the time the wedding started. Thank you for the advice, with fine hair it's really hard add volume, curl, or style.

[@youresocute3]

My hair before* straight My hair after 2 hours of curling* curly My hair 5 minutes later* straight 🙂

pinning your hair after you curl it works SO well. i have SUPER straight hair and it wont hold a curl for even 10 minutes but this made a HUGE difference. thank you so much

[@catmamabrown7363]

My hair is thin and fine and I’m so glad I finally have someone telling me it’s okay to wash my hair daily and what kind of shampoos to use- thank you

[@colleenann772]

I wash my hair every day too. 😊

[@joyciecat420]

Cant believe how many negative comments there are. I needed this so much and you put down the information in such an educational and eloquent way! New favorite hair stylist KZbinr 💗

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Thank you so much Joyce! I really appreciate such wonderful and positive feedback! I’m happy to help in anyway that I can :)

[@jennifermcdonald7513]

girl you are perfectly describing my hair and my problem! Straight, longish, healthy, all one length hair. Won't hold a curl any more. Now I'm even more excited about getting curtain bangs and some soft layers next week! woot!!

[@TheNyteScrybe]

My hair is not only stick-straight, silky soft, and baby-fine, but THICK as can be. It's a nightmare to style. This was the video I needed. Thank you.

[@ashleywest326]

this confirms everything ive been observing for decades, despite everyone telling me dirty is better. I also want to mention that people should make sure they don't have too much silicone build up in their hair. That was my problem for like 2 years. A clarifying shampoo once in a while helps with that.

[@tarar6926]

I need to do this, thank you for the reminder

[@EmpeROARFabulous]

Finally, some tips I haven’t heard elsewhere a million times! Thanks!

[@becbrown212]

So many great tips! I have fine silky hair which loses curl fast because its soft and slippery without any texture.

[@reshma_naidu7]

I love the way you are explaining everything.....not judgemental...not showing off....just giving the real knowledge with a heart warming smile.....Thanks for making the video I have been searching for🥰💓.....Keep it going 😘

[@cathynorthcutt2049]

Loved your video and it is sooo true! I appreciate you mentioning the difference between clean and dirty hair. I agree with you - and natural oils weigh down the hair, so washing is good. In support of your instructions, I am 53 and many professionals have commented on the health of my hair. The best results I've had were when the hair was 100% dry, curling smaller sections, and waiting for it to cool. Products: moose and sexy hairspray. While I most often use heat to curl my hair, I've also discovered putting rollers in my wet hair and letting it dry 100% before removing them keeps the curl longer, too. You just have to have the time and patience.

[@TheLavenderLover]

This video makes SO much sense! It took me almost 50 yrs to understand my fine hair. Pay attention to this woman!! 😂

[@HAIRHOLIC_1]

Same I was like giiirl that’s everything that’s happening to me 😫😫 trying next time with no conditioner

[@Gomba13]

I can't believe you didn't mention pinning the curl to your head after you slide it off the iron without dropping it, to allow it to cool. It's probably the most efficient way to have curls last. It's a tiny bit of extra work that really pays off.

[@GlamGirlGabi]

It’s funny you mention that because I actually did and then I edited it out because the video got too long and I figured most people wouldn’t do it because it’s too time consuming.

[@MegaTinni]

@@GlamGirlGabi I also have a set of hot rollers ... are they better than a curling iron? Any thoughts on that?

[@FootSoldier66]

That technique doesn’t work at all for me personally. Curls still don’t last even after that extra work.

[@TangoMasterclass]

@@GlamGirlGabi I do that, doesn't take extra time. You underestimate your viewers :-) Also the cold water washing/rinsing.. you mentioned that was not a realistic advice, but if it keeps my hair more healthy, I would do it without doubt :-) Thanks for your nice videos, I learnt a lot!

[@karleeg6437]

ive tried and it never works for me :/ what works is adding texture

[@artyplanty823]

I’ve had this problem for such a long time and it was such a simple solution, I conditioned first then washed and the curls held all day 🎉 thank you for that

[@serinajohnson780]

This is genuinely the most helpful video! I've been needing this advice for a good 10 years and in 10 minutes you've helped me to understand my fine hair. Thank you!

[@calicocritterscrafts886]

I needed this! Ugh! Fine, thin, healthy and very moisturized hair…cannot hold a curl for anything 😢 Used to live in the PNW and had pretty great hair days. Now I live on the east coast (USA) and can’t get my hair to do anything except frizz thanks to the humidity.

[@AgendaInMind]

My hair is so fine, perms used to wash out within weeks when I was a kid. Now, I don’t get them,but hair color washes out within 2 weeks, and I have to start using color shampoos to try to preserve the copper color. And I only wash it twice a week! Looks best using a narrow wand and mousse. Blow drying only breaks it.

[@cyndilm]

I’m going to try some of these tips asap. I used to have no trouble with my curls (straight hair, using a curling iron) bit lately they just will not stay. Thank you!

[@ImogenShade]

Watching for a friend 🫠 But it’s true even for naturally wavy/curly hair! I used a different gel to style my 2C/3A that sucked all the moisture out, the curls looked great & I thought I found the one but a few days later I had to untangle a few of my curl clumps which left them straight! I had to wet & rehydrate them before they where scrunchable, the rest still looked great by weeks end. Thanks for the tips, I’m sending this to my friend!☺️

[@carreyperea2201]

for years my hair would not hold a curl for more than one hour because i would blow dry it first to dry stage then curl with appliance, now i air dry without brushing it out and then curl with any appliance and it holds for 4 days ...the blow drying with hair dryer was essentially setting my hair!

[@juliannah5721]

I've never straighten/curled my hair ever in my life, I've always had gorgeous curls I grew to my waist. I got really sick, lost half my hair, had to do a sizeable chop, & my curl pattern changed completely with the lack of weight & meds. I refuse to learn how to style it lmao, so I've been trying to just curl it with a straightener, & bc my hair is in such great shape from never heat styling, it's not taking. Thank you so much, this was so helpful!!!

[@susannpatton2893]

A straightening iron is to straighten hair, try a curling iron

[@aicerg]

This just blew my mind, I never thought the reason I can't get those beautiful curls I see everywhere it's because my hair is healthy, oh god. Btw I have the same hair length as you do and I've been trying to get that hairstyle for the longest time but I can't seem to get it right, it's beautiful with your highlights ❤️ great video.

[@tymondabrowski12]

I think it might also just be your hair texture too, for example my hair is virgin and as far as I can tell healthy (nearly never using any heat, never styling with heat; and it looks shiny enough, I guess), but while it looks straight for the most part, after a shower, when I dry it a bit with a towel it is wavy. Only later the waves get looser and looser and the brush ends the job making the hair straight. But the ends are always curling a little bit regardless (from touching the shoulders etc.). That's also why a good haircut (chin-length with bangs) was self-sustaining for me, I didn't have to style it but it still looked great. Trying the "curly girl method" showed that it is indeed a little bit wavy. That's probably why when I use heartless curls they do stay at least a day (loosened up but still pretty), and with a styling foam way longer. Maybe your hair is just more straight than the person's whose results you tried to replicate?

[@Sookielein]

I actually really like hot rollers. They're not too hot and you can do a bunch of stuff while the curls cool off.

[@TerriPD]

I have very fine hair [though a fair amount of it] & steam rollers work like a miracle for me.

[@theChiefSavvyMonkey]

Thank you Gabby for all your amazing videos and tips! I have silky hair that is super heavy and straight. It’s hard for me to hold a curl. I have to dye my hair (damage) to add texture. I recently stopped using conditioner after I saw this video and my hair has more texture and volume! Your tips are so valuable and helpful! ❤️

[@SamanthaAshley5]

Thank you for sharing these tips. I stopped using my Moroccan oil on the days I curl my hair and so far it is working!

[@lisablackwell7098]

Best video yet! This is everything Ive learned over the years!

[@krfx2]

THANK YOU for this post and the product recommendations! I am getting the best results I’ve ever had in 56 years! I love my hair again!!! 🎉❤

[@GlamGirlGabi]

I’m so happy to hear it!

[@pochernyai]

I have straight silky hair, natural color. I do nothing to them and people sometimes ask where do I go for keratin treatment. but the problem is - my hair is very thin at the same time. without products, it won't hold curls even after curling iron. it has no volume and can look greasy after couple hours after washing. sometimes I just look like a wet dog. I struggle a lot with my hair and most styling videos do nothing for me - they don't take my hair type into account. your video is a blessing for someone like me. thank you!

[@catherinegrace828]

Thank you for the break in life And sharing all your tips with us ❤

[@stephaniemarkovic989]

[@GlamGirlGabi]

I’m so glad that you found the tips to be helpful Lucy!

[@Donna-cc1kt]

I’ve simply got to listen more to you. I watch at night when I’m tired. Think you belong on Saturday morning!! agree! I set temp anywhere from 300 to 350. I want long hair and lower temps mean less cuts.

[@ellengoodman1297]

What a great video, I have super fine,healthy, straight, blunt cut hair!!! So helpful!

[@peachjellytoast]

I feel like the condition then shampoo tip is going to be a game changer for me! My mom has a completely different hair type than I do, I have very fine silky hair and I remember so many times being in the JC penny’s bathroom before getting pictures taken as a kid with her re-curling my hair like “damn it why won’t the curl hold!” 🤬😭

[@lavaunjohns7796]

I fell into category 1 and am now category 2 because of one product I found at Sally's of all places. Loreal's nature therapy mega moisture. I have fine thin hair so I truly thought this would weigh my hair down but I've been using it for almost 2 years every time I shampoo and my hair appears thicker, healthy, shiny, no static electricity, AND it holds a curl. Love this stuff.

[@carlissaneumann8133]

Wow super informative and practical advice!!! I never knew about any of these and I’m super frustrated with my hair, I’ve used rollers and everything and it never turns out how I want! Thank you so much for this advice I’m going to try these 🥰🥰

[@katherineweisse8135]

This was incredibly helpful! I was doing so many things wrong! 😂 thank you!!

[@kay_22_i]

This is great! Thank you for all these tips. I'll definitely try skipping on the conditioner/cutting back on it and also trying to use a flexible hold hairspray before curling. I tried for so long to try to learn a curling iron and I just couldn't manage it but I'm gonna stick to it for sure!

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Thanks for the comment! All of these things in combination should definitely help you out. Don’t give up on the curling iron. It seems tricky at first until you get it and then it sticks (kind of like riding a bike). If you really want something easier, try a wand instead. It drops faster typically but it is an easier method of curling because you don’t have to fuss with any clamps.

[@kay_22_i]

@@GlamGirlGabi I usually use a wand! But I'm determined to get the hang of an iron! I'll be sure to come back and brag if I ever figure it out 😝😝😝

[@Sookielein]

@@kay_22_i Hot rollers! Trust me it's so much less of a struggle , it's way more gentle on the hair and in combination with all the other things she mentioned it really holds the curls. Plus you can do a bunch of other things like doing your make up or get dressed while the curls cool off.

[@ItsLaurenE]

Your videos are wonderful! I love that blunt Bob because i don't necessarily have fine hair, i just don't have a lot of hair. Always been a more than average natural shedder, and alas combine that with my trichotillomania which I've dealt with since i was 9, I'm 41 now. I've gotten a lot better at recognizing and having self control but it's not easy. I lost handfuls of hair after my 2nd daughter, now 16 yrs old. It never seemed to come back or at least not as much. I've never had ungodly thick hair though. Luckily i can hold curls quite well, i loved the tips given though as i keep experimenting with less heat for the integrity of my color damaged head 😂 I love coloring my hair, and change it often. And avoid bleach as much as possible.

[@angieryan2544]

Fantastic tutorial I really needed advice about using the hair wand so thank you very much 👏🏻♥️

I follow the Blowout Professor for the healthy hair trinity. My hair is super healthy, but doesn’t hold curl. I love the idea of conditioning first, moose, and dry shampoo on curly hair days. I mainly just enjoy my healthy straight hair but wish I had waves sometimes.

[@anna-mh5ct]

So do I, and while my hair is healthier and longer than ever, it doesn’t hold any volume or curls. When my hair was damaged, it LOVED holding shape 😂

[@user-be6sc7ic1k]

Thank you for the tips. Everywhere I checked they said lil bit dirty hair or use products with oils which I thought would be strange and that do weights the hair down. I have Christmas party tomorrow and bought like hair curlers like 4 of them also hot rollers, stick rollers and velcro. Not sure what I am going to use but it's good that I seen this video and haven't used anything on my hair.

[@samanthamiller5814]

The hairstylist I used to go see used a straightener to curl my hair, but the curls do not last at all. However, if I use a thinner curling wand, the curls last longer. I’m gonna have my aunt be my hairstylist for my wedding this year. She’s a cosmetologist and she is trying to decide what she should use for my hair. Another option I was debating on was using hot rollers because when I was younger, they were very effective. But nowadays, I'm not so sure since I've colored my hair. I'm not sure if it would work the same. Keep in mind, half of my hair is healthy and half of it is damaged. Previously, I had a balayage, but then decided to do my hair my natural hair color, and I used a product called Paul Mitchell’s PM Shines. It's a demi-permanent hair color that is ammonia-free. It is a liquid gel formula that contains a conditioning agent from meadowfoam seed that helps repair damage and intensify shine. It also contains Intense Hydrating Complex (IHC) that penetrates deep into the hair shaft for intense hydration. The shampoo I use is Biolage Hydra Source Shampoo. It hydrates and moisturizes dry hair. For conditioner, I use Biolage Hydra Source Detangling Solution. It detangles and controls static for less frizz and fly-aways because my ends are dead, they get frizzy and have split ends. Keep in mind, I have thick hair and I hope I’m using the right products. My aunt recommended BIOLAGE. If there's anything I can do to change my routine, let me know down below in the comment section.

[@shannonburbank]

Always had bone straight and a lot of thick strand hairs. Curl has always been my nemesis.

[@Marlene-ou5ol]

So: mousse + blow dry + dry shampoo + working spray. I guess that there is also a heat protection that comes on top of it (but not mentioned).

[@lisamedeiros7581]

Fantastic!! Great viedo! Very informative

Yes!! That is the recipe for curl disaster right there. I hope that these tips help you out!!
