I don’t remember which video was it but watch Manes by mell videos. I think one of the reasons for flat roots was applying too much product in the length of the hair which makes the hair weigh down. Also, for better curly results, do finger coiling once in a while after applying your styling cream or whatever you use.

Epsom salt spray really brings out my curls even at my roots. This only works if your hair gets curlier when you go to the beach. I guess it’s the same chemical reaction? 1/2 teaspoon epsom salt dissolved in 1 cup hot distilled water, (can add 10 drops of lavender essential oil for a lovely scent), spray generously, scrunch well, let dry (it dries stiff. Don’t panic!), scrunch well again until the stiffness is softened. Epsom salt can be drying so deep condition weekly. Strangers have complimented my hair. Such a confidence boost after years of feeling ugly. I can’t use gels, creams, etc. My skin breaks out everywhere (face, neck, ears!) my product-laden hair touches it so the only thing I can use is epsom salt spray. I also use aloe vera spray since it doesn’t cause breakouts and has very light hold.The Denman brush did not enhance my curl pattern unfortunately. My hair is too thin/fine.

I had a Denman brush in high school. Back in the days where I straightened my hair every single day. I lost the brush years ago and when I started really looking into how to enhance my 2c hair, I saw that brush mentioned and kicked myself for not keeping that brush. I've already ordered a new one because seeing several ladies' results with it really showed me how much of a difference it really makes. I also use a wooden bristle brush because I've heard that the wood absorbs your natural oils from your scalp and spreads them throughout your hair way more easily. Granted, I only get that chance once a week, but still!

I hated how short it was. I started hating the curls. I started heat damaging it ON PURPOSE. I repeat ON PURPOSE. I would do a rinse of steaming hot water on my hair in the shower for about a minute and straightening it everyday without heat protectant. Now I have medium length and horribly damaged hair.

I used to straighten my hair (3A/B curls) almost every single day too. Now I barely use heat anymore to style my hair and although it's difficult in the beginning, it's really worth it. I never followed the strict curly girl method rules, just picked up tips and tricks here and there and went with what I felt like worked best for my hair (mild sulfates once a month, no silicones, deep conditioning once a week, diffusing, scrunching to name a few), but the transformation after 2-3 months was pretty incredible (even to me, although I'm usually my harshest critic) and thinking about what my hair could look like once all the heat damage has grown out/cut off makes me really excited about my natural hair journey. The beginning is scary when you're used to straightening all the time and basically have no clue how to handle your natural curls (trust me on this one though: your curls are as confused as you are at this state. Give them some time!), but not only the final outcome but also the journey is totally worth it! Almost all of my straight haired friends love my natural hair and wish they had curls too, so if nature has blessed you with natural curls, take good care of them and embrace them! ❤️

All good stuff. Only thing is cold water does not seal the cuticle. You’re better off with hot water. It’s all about ph. Use distilled water or apple cider vinegar. Staying around that ph will seal that cuticle!! And yes Ik it sounds crazy but water at different temps or stages has a different ph.

Are you using silicones or heavy creams? Silicone will weigh down the curls as I mentioned in the video. Also clarifying frequently is good to prevent the roots being weighed down.

For those of us that are celiacs, wheat protein is POISON. It can make our hair fall out, and get rashes/psoriasis or eczema type rashes. Of course, not everyone has these problems, but for those of us that are gluten free, this is a big issue for us. Even though our hair doesn't "digest" wheat from eating it, it still is a poison for us and we get issues from being exposed to it on our skin.

The tips in this video will hopefully help for the hair at the root too! Just remember how it takes time and is a long process to fully grow out and recover hair. Diffusing upside down can help to curly up the roots more, along with scrunching.

I have the same curl type that you do! Anytime I notice the top getting real straight or wavy, it’s time for a haircut and some more layers. I usually only need a cut once every 5 or 6 months. If all your curls are kinda sad and undefined, you might also need a protein treatment! Hope that helps!!

Yep! You just have to angle the brush how I showed in the video, and twist your wrist around so the hair wraps around the edge of the brush as you pull down the strand. That’s what gives it the ringlet. You may not get actual ringlets since your texture is looser, but it will give it more wave.
@longyarn42885 жыл бұрын
I'm pretty sure I've seen a couple of other wavy KZbinr's use the Denman brush, and they got good results. You'll want to check and make sure, but I believe if you buy it from ULTA and you keep your receipt, if it doesn't work for you then you can take it back, but I got one of the small ones like she had from Amazon and it wasn't that expensive. You can always give it to a little girl to use on her dollies if it's too much of a hassle to return but you wanted to try it. 🙄 🤷♀️
