As a long time viewer, I can appreciate the dedication and determination to learn this skill. You did an amazing job.

[@karimamckimmie]

Love my long time viewers❤❤

[@AAjmya]

i loveeeee when Karima is teaching us something because she WILL make it technical & understandable for us to replicate!!

[@karimamckimmie]

Yayyy so glad it helped 😘😊!

[@zenaassaad8152]

Loved this video! I miss old school makeup tutorials and yours were always great so seeing some more tutorials would be nice :)

[@ezhnf]

The editing on this is the actual visualization of what goes on in my head when i style too. P/S i've cried and given up curling my hair too so you're not alone Karima

[@karimamckimmie]

tysm 😘

[@Michellecrossan]

Aw she’s a pro now !! 🏆 I remember that day so well 💕

[@AuroraCarlisle]

Not a MUA but def a MU enthusiast. I’ve been hopeless with my hair for 10+ years and only just figured out how to curl my hair with a flat iron too. I realized I was so concentrated on trying to imitate the hand motions I saw people doing that I wasn’t just doing the curling/twisting motion that felt natural. That sounds weird but once I stopped trying to imitate and instead just told myself to “clamp, twist your wrist away from your face, and pull down,” it was easy and fast. It sounds so silly but I was soooo hung up imitating others in the mirror that I would trip myself up. Now I can just curl my whole head in 10 minutes.

[@karimamckimmie]

I think you just taught us a life lesson 😅, thank you for sharing ♥

[@cristinabenavente199]

The dyson dryer which has the smoothing part( looks like a hook) works a dream for baby hairs and smoothing day2/ day 3 hair 🎉

[@riya7606]

Loved this video! Please also do a drugstore makeup favourites video❤️

[@commonsense8318]

I ❤ this video so much! I too have tried for years to master this technique that so many other tutorials made look easy. Your internal dialogue with yourself while you’re doing it lol. Girl, I have been there!

[@egle2864]

This is everything I wanted and needed right now. Can't wait to try out all the tips! Thank you, Karima 💜

[@karimamckimmie]

Thanksss for watching 🥰

[@blushandpepperplans]

oh my days this was my struggle too. I also cried when I tried and failed. I hav only just got used to the Babylis curling thing that does it for you. at some point i will try with my GHD's. im too scared I will burn myself. 🙄

[@firnheledien]

That necklace is 🔥 love your outfit and the whole vibe of this video. It's like your impossibly cool friend showing you her hair secrets.

[@julespearson]

Interesting that it helped that Michelle physically helped you move through the curl. I never used to have any problems with using my flat iron to curl until I broke my wrist and elbow, now it is like they just don't now what to do. I do have less bend in my wrist. It is weird. I use my Airwrap a lot these days, I use it more like a traditional curling wand to get more beachy curls.

[@karimamckimmie]

I've heard of using your Airwrap that way but I've never tried! Will report back 😉

[@hyperkoool1]

Karima can do hair!!! 🥳

[@jesixbe17]

Loved this! I like my ends straighter too, I use the same method to curl my hair and just pull the piece of hair out when there 1-2 inches left at the bottom and leave it uncurled instead of going back in after.

[@ldubss]

Former hopeless hair girl here too!! 🙋🏻‍♀️ Both your curls and color are so so beautiful! My only suggestion is to leave the last inch of your hair uncurled. Will give you that undone look without the extra straightening step!

[@tamaramorton8812]

I just discovered you and really like the tips you gave in this video for long hair. I haven’t tried it yet but I am really interested to try your tip about making the ends of the hair straight. I could tell a big difference in your before and after picture of this. A little detail but it made a big difference. Thanks!

[@heatherrs141]

YAYYYYY KZbin VIDEO! And perfect timing because I really need to learn this in like ... 2 days lol

[@juliazoltzer9125]

Oh and the babyhair-solution: the new dyson hairdrier tool also has a very great function that puts the babyhair under your hair. I love it and I'm really obsessed with it 😍

[@susanneflora3133]

The dyson airwrap brush attachements (use before curling) works pretty well for smooting down a lot of the baby hairs for me 💆‍♀️

[@88mabelle]

love this video!!! I love the approach you take to makeup so to see your approach to hair is such a bonus!! thank you!!! you've just inspired me to do my hair again after so long

[@AyuZulaika]

LOL I can totally relate the buffering part 😂😂 great tutorial for beginners, Karima! Thank youuu 💕

[@trinaa0509]

This is so helpful, thank you! Btw, I’ve heard that some people like to have a clear brow gel tube just for their baby hairs. It seems like it works well but I haven’t tried it personally. 😬

[@karimamckimmie]

Let me know how that goes 😊

[@danicast573]

Yeeei! Thanks for making this video 🤗. To me you’ve been a hair pro since you were doing the unicorn hair!

[@asima781]

Beautiful! I usually curl my hair, what helps with sectioning is also using a couple of long clips to keep the curled hair separate from the uncurled, also start curling the hair in the back first and then make my way to the front (but that's because I know how many curls I'll get from one section). For baby hairs I feel clear eye brow gel, i.e the Anastasia or the Benefit one's work well too :-)

[@karimamckimmie]

Good idea re clear brow gel for baby hairs 😉

[@michellebh]

Baby hair: Spray a spoolie with hairspray then smooth. Thanks for this video.. very helpful 😊

[@carengurwitz5773]

I have the same trouble you had - I am going to follow your advice and have a friend help!

[@astridverastegui]

14:30 I like the spray and comb method you used. Usually if I just spray the hairspray dries and feels stiff like a helmet.

[@SapphireLite87]

Loved the vid, will try your technique next time I curl my hair

[@Users_rx]

Tbh, i miss her straight, long black hair from 5 years ago.

[@phoenixgate007]

KARIMA CAN DO HAIR! Congratulations 🎊🍾

[@karimamckimmie]

About time 😅

[@phoenixgate007]

@@karimamckimmie lol 😆 Let’s face it, you can do anything 💞

[@sleepyheadsarah]

For anybody else out there who has extremely fine hair that refuses to hold a curl and gets weighed down by styling products, I find that old-fashioned techniques work better for me. For example, setting damp hair in curlers or clips and letting it air dry.

[@karimamckimmie]

I would like to venture into that territory one day 😅

[@csd3529]

Karima 🎉 🎉🎉🎉 Please make a video about how you make your videos. What software do you use? What equipment do you use? I love your videos and want to learn how to KZbin

[@raquelsaavedrae]

your entire head of hair is about 1/3 or 1/4 of my hair. and that's why i ignore my hair. i'm a makeup girly, but aint nobody got time to do my hair. even hairdressers hate me lol whenever i come in for a cut or a blowout my hairdresser (who has worked with my hair for over 10 years) is always like "omg not youuu!! i'm going to finish at midnight and won't feel my arms for 2 days" hahaha

[@florazelenka8069]

I'll have to try these tips! Have you ever tried any heatless curling methods? I'd be curious about your thoughts on them. :)

[@karimamckimmie]

I haven't tried it yet, but I have a pair of leggings ready for heatless curls, will report back 😘

[@morganashleyroll3805]

Thankyou so much for showing me this. ❤

[@morganashleyroll3805]

Heya girl.. I m messaging you back..

[@samnicol9388]

I’d like to see an extensive review on all prices of eyeshadow sticks. I use these from all brands for a quick makeup or as a base for powder eyeshadows for longevity. Can you please find some unique colours like the terracotta matte from revlon or the weird antique green one from make up forever? I need something not pewter mauve taupe, is it me or do all Laura Mercier caviar sticks look the same on the eye?

[@chasebennett6164]

can you please do a slick straight low ponytail tutorial with a lot of your aveda hairspray? spraying the tail as well!!!

[@chasebennett6164]

is that ok?

[@everg14]

You look amazing!!

[@Claire-f]

Would love to know if there’s anything special you do to take care of your hair so it does stay healthy, whether it’s internally or externally.

[@jackielopez9739]

I am exactly like this. I cannot do my own hair. It just doesn't click for me yet

[@renadempsey842]

I love your natural brunette colour….but I also went more blonde and then went back. 🤷‍♀️❤️

[@nainaparashar1205]

You spoke about hairloss, was it because of accutane? Thanks for your video 😀

[@emiliepryor51]

I have those SAME accutane baby hair growths. It cracks me up. I feel like a muppet.

[@saimahabib8495]

Hiii lovely i need to know ur opinion about hair oiling, does it cause any difference to fair falling or impoving the quality of hair.

[@sobean9309]

what if I blowdry and then curl/straighten my hair right after, should i reapply heat protectant or is it still working?

[@haileyj831]

Does that mean that we’re saying goodbye to the “Karima can’t do hair, but tries very hard” portions of videos? 🤔😂

[@karimamckimmie]

Definitely not 😅

[@juliazoltzer9125]

Yes yes, nice hair, girl... but whats on your eyes????? I would think it could maybe be zora liquid eyeshadow from Lisa Eldridge? It looks gorgeous! No, seriously, thank you for this very informative video (as always!)

[@elisefournier4774]

Gorgeous eye glasses ! Where did you get them? Also Good tip about teaming up with a hair expert friend.

[@Future-zx9ts]

She says in the video who makes the glasses. 😊

[@hottopiccasey]

"Karima can't do hair but tries very hard?" Nah, fam, we've graduated. Karima *can* do hair

[@blushandsky]

your hair looks amazing, but I will forever miss the segment of „Karima can’t do hair but she tries really really hard” 🤣

[@dapurairlangga]

Hello karima❤ This is a good video that I've ever seen, friends are always connected, if friends need authentic Indonesian recipes, I make them, I complete your language for each video so you can try Indonesian dishes, greetings from Indonesia, friends

[@mizshellytee]

How it started: "Karima can't do hair but tries very hard." How it's going: this video.

[@BeNiceBeGood]

You lost weight on your face, hope you're doing okay

[@morganashleyroll3805]

Hello. I'm messaging you back..

[@yukkaru1]

Karima , I apologize But it seems like on pic you look older with this color IMHO
