NO SCRUNCH Challenge/Method On Wavy Hair | crazy results!!

[@symbeline]

OMG real wavy hair with messy styling and in the end it looks like hair goals. I've been trying to get this particular style, big, lazy, loose waves bc my hair is a mixture of ringlets, defined curls, loose waves and straight hair and it looks like a hot mess! Will definitely research this and try it if it doesn't seem too scary for me

[@monsev.arellano9125]

Me too! Sometimes I just feel like a fraud doing the wavy hair routine because the lower back section of my hair is straight, I have some kinks all around the top and I only get ringlets in the very front. Definitely understand you!

[@patriciamayer3401]

I've used this routine a couple of times after seeing Swavy Curly Courtney do it and I like the results that I've gotten. The curls are softer and I prefer that look right now. I used different products that I already had. It's nice to know that I can still get defined waves without crunching. I now have the option to have tighter or softer waves. BTW, I love those soft waves on you. Thanks for doing this.

[@tabithagingerich]

Thanks for watching! I love the option to have softer looser waves 💗

[@maisiebadham2773]

Looks beautiful

[@Sarah-og8np]

To be honest,i am a curly girl and i have been doing curl girl method WITHOUT scrunchies from last 6 years but i used to never say anyone as other curly girl people would judge me. Without scrunching i always get loose volume waves and i loved it like that...thanks now everyone follows same.

[@annaburns5382]

I like your hair like that. It's really nice. An alternative to scrunching that I learned from a curly hair stylist is to clap your hands together with your hair in-between. It works well for me.

[@rileypaigemc7018]

Beautiful!!! ive been doing the no scrunch challenge before it was a challenge because i really didn't like how my roots would go flat but the mids to ends would have volume. so i started brushing it all down, shaking my head just a bit to create movement, then tucking my hair behind my ears. i loooooove it!

[@beth1865]

I've always wondered what my hair would look like if I did this, but never wanted to waste a wash day😂 thanks for documenting the experiment!! I'm also surprised at the results, maybe I'll try it!

[@tabithagingerich]

Lol I feel you! I think it’s worth a try though 😊♡

[@ILOLnumber1]

Wow! Your hair turned out really pretty and still wavy! That proves that your hair has truly been trained enough to wavy on its own now! Right?

[@tabithagingerich]

Haha maybe but I hope it’s just natural 😅

[@laurettahannel6034]

Lovely! It looks so soft! I’m eager to try this method after watching lots of people try it!

[@IKKclauKR]

Hey, don't know if this might help you I bought a cream from Not Your Mother's (is not the curl talk, but it's a curly one), and my hair didn't like it at all So I kind of use it in my refresh, I put a bit in the spray bottle, and mix it with water, and it helps my hair a lot when I feel that it looks limp

[@Colley_co]

@@princessmanitari4993 I am not sure if it was the new conditioner (NYM Curl Defining Conditioner) or the new gel (NYM Curl Talk gel)... Ive been using OGX Biotin/Collagen Shampoo and conditioner (tons of protein) and Kinky Curly Custard for a while and they have been great. I just wanted to try something new but I washed and styled like I always do and my hair dried almost completely straight.

[@Fjongan]

Looked so good! I will try this out of curiosity 😄

[@jessicagalyon5840]

This is the hair I want. And my hair is a lot like yours I just can’t seem to get it right. It’s been a week tho.. but I’m getting frustrated. I never used product in my hair before. So now I do & end up w stringy hair if I brush it in & the wave falls out. If I don’t then I end up w crazy webbing frizz. I don’t care about curl, I just want uniform.. soft not frizzy hair!

[@micapabia8167]

The end results are so pretty!! 🥺 I think I’ll try this on my next wash day 🤎✨

[@tabithagingerich]

Thank you!! Good luck ♡♡

[@mr.fahrenheit347]

if i scrunch upside down i get really pretty 2c beach waves or even rockstar waves but if i finger coil and scrunch upright my ringlets pop out a bit more

[@almasmith3930]

do you have a video on your go-to haircut with your wavy hair? If not what would you recommend like front framing layers and longer layers in the back?

[@tabithagingerich]

I don’t have a dedicated video but I talk about it in a few! Most recently my “wavy hair mistakes part 2” video!

[@yolo6334]

Did a no-scrunch method on my curls and I love it- dont get me wrong, I love my natural curl pattern and how springy it is, but I also like looser curls. Theyre beautiful. Not to mention it makes my hair look longer than it actually is

[@aavv1818]

[@MarcP5267]

After washing your hair isn’t your hair dripping wet? How you drying it when you’re applying your leave in and gel?

[@elfriedeschmidt1494]

I may try this next wash day. One question I have is do you think it would work if I diffuse instead of air dry like you did? I simply can’t go a whole day waiting for my hair to dry (I have Raynaud’s disease and cold air, especially being wet, is my worst enemy). Thank you.

[@princessmanitari4993]

I think diffusing would definetly work too! Out of experience i would say definetly, but you'd have to diffuse all of it

[@tabithagingerich]

I think it would, yes. Haven’t tried it, but at least hover diffusing should be fine!

[@IKKclauKR]

Im guessing if you hover diffuse, it should be good The idea would be no scrunching, so if you don't put and cup your hair in the diffuser, it should work

[@elfriedeschmidt1494]

@@tabithagingerich Well it’s worth a try. Thank you for the idea!

[@lori2719]

I've been using this method on my lazy days for a while lol. On a styled day I wash, condition, rake in Cantu curl cream and Aussie gel, plop, scrunch, diffuse/air dry. But most days lately I wash, condition, rake in cantu curl cream, throw my hair in a microfiber towel haphazardly for 15 minutes to do my skincare, air dry and go about the day. My results are similar to yours most days, but are flat by day 2.

[@tabithagingerich]

Thanks for watching! My hair was definitely more limp and flat than normal on day two.. although I really enjoyed the first day results ♡

Was this without plopping, too?

[@tabithagingerich]

Yes!

[@katherinefrederick3164]

My hair is almost just like yours I might have a little more curl in some spots but I’m having so much trouble with frizz . I just started my curly girl journey and I’ve watched all your videos on frizz and others as well but I just can’t seem to get it gone lol or tamed I use most NYM curt talk products and Shea moisture shampoo and conditioner any tips or product recommendations ?

[@tabithagingerich]

Thanks for watching! I think sydney said this routine helps with her frizz, so it might work for you! I just don’t deal with a ton of frizz in general.. if I do it’s usually because I I need moisture. Do you usually get a cast once your hair dries?

[@katherinefrederick3164]

With the NYM curl cream and gel I do not get a cast which honestly I would like to get a cast but haven’t achieved that with those two products . Maybe not using enough ? Lol

[@mimisdailydose]

Can you do this routine with a gel that leaves a cast? I got the Shea Moisture Styling lotion you like but it doesn’t work for me on my wash days (works great for refreshs). Could I use a normal gel or maybe mix the gel and the styling lotion? I really wan to try this tomorrow:)

[@tabithagingerich]

Haven’t tried it but I would think so! I like the idea of mixing the two ♡

[@rociocarrizo6598]

Hey! When I’ve finished applying the gel and my hair is still soaking wet, what technique should I use to dry it with my microfiber towel?

Dry plopping

[@rociocarrizo6598]

@@hotchocolates3828 how do I do that?

[@tabithagingerich]

You could try gently squeezing the lengths of your hair with the towel! I just tried to squeeze out a lot of water before and then apply products and brushing it out helped for some reason! I should’ve mentioned that I feel like my hair dried faster with this ♡

[@rociocarrizo6598]

@@tabithagingerich squeezing it while scrunching? Or squeezing it vertically?❤️❤️

[@rubymaebalane5075]

If you bleach your hair, will the curl still be there when doing your usual hair routine? I hope you notice this.

[@tabithagingerich]

Hi ♡ it can keep them from being as defined but if you take good care and do lots of masks you can get them pretty close to as good as new!

I brush style my hair almost every time I wash it with the Behairful brush. I don't need to scrunch it because the brush does all the work forming curls, so this challenge makes no sense to me.

[@maddymichael8998]

If your hair is more wavy and less curly, you are not supposed to brush it after you put product in it because it will just pull out your wave pattern rather than forming curls. Wavy hair tends to only like srunching in your product to get waves

[@Floridameerkat93]

[@NEChristo]

Not sure why you’re shocked that your hair is not drying straight when you don’t have straight hair lol yeah scrunching definitely adds wave and definition but wavy hair will never dry straight. 🤔

[@jeng6786]

If you brush your hair you brush oit the curl pattern and it can end up falling flat. Many of these woman thought they had straight hair because it would always fall flat because of how damaged and dried out their hair was. But when this method is learned we are taught to scrunch a lot so she's probably never not scrunched it before.

[@Seashellsbytheseashore21]

Half of my half is very wavy, and if I brush it after a shower, majority of it goes straight.

[@MarcP5267]

If you’re hair is naturally wavy then it won’t be straight even if you brush your hair.

[@Seashellsbytheseashore21]

My hair is naturally wavy and when I brush it, most of it usually goes straight.
