Wavy / Frizzy Hair Tips

[@rubydoo3307]

I went to my hairdresser and showed them this video for a cut, and they said it wouldn't suit me, so I did myself at home, and you weren't lying. My hair is so naturally defined now, I barely need hair cream or anything, for that fact.

You look more like a mix of Helena Christensen and Linda Evangelista. Lucky you!

[@rachaeldeacon2039]

The way you do things is some kind of magical combo of refinement and carelessness, sophistication and utilitarianism and it’s so refreshing and genuinely helpful. We have the same hair and mine usually looks pretty good, but I’ve recently realized that putting in an extra 5 min goes a very long way. This couldn’t have come at a better time

[@BarbaraT.]

Careless sophistication, that's it!

[@samchapmanmakeup]

This is such a lovely comment and compliment. Thank you x

Did it work?

[@meghanworkman6449]

@@samchapmanmakeup YES!! I gave myself a shag haircut first, and then used your tips to style it, and I am BLOWN AWAY by how wavy my hair is now. I feel like this is the haircut/look my hair has been crying out for.

I have this type of hair and cut as well. Thanks for posting.

Same! A lot of curly advice doesn't work for my wavy, very fine, frizzy hair. This video is giving me some ideas to try. Definitely also subscribing.

[@ninayoung8240]

Me too

[@theresetal219]

Oh, same for me - now to find a hairdresser that understands

[@jamieguthrie0317]

Love this! One thing I also do is use a silk cap at night - it really helps to tame and also preserve the style.

[@manavaatma]

Helena Christensen, that’s who you remind me of. Beautiful!

[@lorrainestephens5706]

Me too!

[@AMcDub0708]

I have this hair and I’ve found for me to cut down on frizz is to actually part my hair on the OPPOSITE side of what I want for styling. Let it dry. The weight of the hair under the opposite side of the part kind of presses the frizz out. The exposed side of the part gets frizzy by being open to the air and movement. Once fully dry, flip hair to the opposite side for the part and hair is much smoother.

[@2lipToo]

You are so easy to listen to, unlike so many others - mostly American it seems - with heavy focal fry. And you're gorgeous!

[@raraavis7782]

You're my hair twin! Curly in the neck, wavy and drying almost smooth on top. Gets easily weighed down, despite being very thick and dense and healthy. It just does not absorb product and especially oils (natural or synthetic). And I also need an insane amount of layers and thinning for my hair to look good. Which most hairdressers just will not give you, even if you ask for it. I'm so grateful for the whole 'wolfcut' trend. Now I can finally put a name on what I want.

[@Nemisha17]

I'm same! Oils don't absorb at all!

[@SM-cw9jk]

I have the same type of hair. I stopped going to the hairdresser's because no matter what i asked for, layers and thinning (my hair gets thick and weighted down) i never get what i ask for. I tell them i dont straighten my hair, dont blow dry, i natural dry as much as i can. I always end up with a cut for straight hair. First wash after my cut. I end up looking like no country for old men. Mortified Thank you for all the tips. Lovely hair cut.

[@awhwll2229]

Same experience here - I ask for layers and they NEVER cut enough out!! What do you do in terms of cutting your hair now? Do you cut it yourself?

[@cinfull50]

You are the first person I have ever seen do exactly the same as what I do with my hair and get exactly the same result it always dries nice and definitely all about the cut and the push up for that rocker curl is what I call mine. I'm also a hairdresser so I know how to get the cut right ❤

[@TheRayjane]

Could you be anymore gorgeous Sam? I just love your beautiful ice blue eyes….love the shag cut, stunning on you❤

[@insanechimpanzee]

FINALLY someone with my exact hair. I cannot thank you enough!!! I was able to look up the cut and do it myself. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Getting my hair to do something I want has been a life long struggle! Finally something that works!!

[@Alexa-kb7fl]

Could you please share with me how to achieve this hairstyle - this is exacty what I want for myself. Looking forward to hearing from you.

I love this you have❤my EXACT hair type and I’m currently 42 and am only NOW learning from you how to keep it healthy and awesome 👏 ❤❤❤❤

[@iveysimone7388]

You should keep this hairstyle for ever and ever and ever ....the perfect combination natural but with style and unique edge! It suits you in such a fantastic way. Recently discovered your channel and am so glad. sometimes the algorithms really come together.

[@caroonuki3082]

I have exactly the same hair type, ❤ would love it if you shared some more detail on the hair cut or did a tutorial!

[@lellytalks4296]

You're so right. I got suckered into the million product and steps regime. Wash, scrunch, leave and (in my case) just a bit of mouse and presto!

[@marleyhill34]

I'm black...our hair is even more complicated but doesn't need to be when you just do the basics. weekly shampoo, use a deep conditioner/hair mask, use a leave-in conditioner, detangle with a wide tooth comb, put it in two French braids and get your trims every 3 months/seasonally. that's it! Most straight-haired people can skip the leave-in conditioner and can use a brush instead of a comb.

[@immahuman9483]

Lovely haircut. I think that’s a huge part of being able to allow your hair to air dry and not look like trash. I quite like Hairstory’s Undressed spray for a refresh and textured air dry!

[@floraluxla]

Stuntz Beauty Hair Gloss is the only product I use for my wavy hair that works. And it smells soooooo good!!! Like a beautiful, rich sandalwood.

[@Ando_Warrior]

This is my hair, wavy not curly but frizzy. I needed this!

[@mcds1122]

Laughing- I never met anyone who described my hair, but you did :) bravo

[@a.b.9830]

You just literally SOLVED my hair conondrum that I've been struggling with for YEARS. I have this exact hair type and I've never seen anyone actually talk about and address this type where there is waves underneath and basically almost straight hair on top. I so WISH I could have a shag haircut but I have alopecia and the layers would probably expose my hair loss spots, sigh..... anyway, I WILL try this some time either way! Also, you look amazing!! Love your eye makeup as well.

[@julietabernal5448]

This is the type of my hair, I’ve found that very recently in my life, im 42! I do exactly the same routine. Few days before I’ve been putting my head down when my hair is almost dry and spray some curly hair product and it looks more fluffy and I receive a lot of compliments :)

[@mimimimz6719]

Since I haven't come across someone with hair like mine before , I always thought that I was the only one who has this "weird" hair. I was equally shocked and delighted when you started describing your hair and I realized that is my hair described to a tee. Thank you for this video and all advice and tips. It's exactly what I was looking for; easy, effortless but it looks great ❤

[@beautybliss7127]

Very nice, but the moment I step outside into the humidity, I become an instant frizzball. 😂

[@marleyhill34]

frizz is friction and/or hair that is too dry so it's swelling out to catch the humidity/moisture in the air. If you have any wave or coil or kink avoid friction in your hair. Straight medium hair can handle the friction more a bit of product smooths it back down. coarse or fine hair is a nightmare to tame without make it in weighed down. for dry hair, try a weekly hair mask, a daily leave-in conditioner and/or an anti-humidity product.

[@l_tmszk]

That's why you need topping like silicone serum or oil. It will make shield over hair because what is making frizz is your hair with open pores is sinking water from air.

[@mandolinwind]

​@laura_tmszk Yes, love " Wow " product

[@slayorcs]

This is very similar to my hair and hair cut. My hairdresser is excellent and understands very well about cutting hair to enhance it's natural wave etc. I don't use any products in my hair, limited amount of conditioner and only on the sides and ends, no heat drying, natural drying only and lots of scrunching when it is damp. So just about everything in this video. Its been the best result for my hair in my entire life and I've been around for quite a few decades.

[@peaceatlast2684]

I have that kind of hair too, left unchecked would be like the lead singer of Europe "the final countdown" style. Great informative video, thanks

[@LisaGrisham]

I have totally tried exactly what you do with your hair... same haircut as well. My natural hair texture is curly frizzy, wavy frizzy, thick, coarse, color treated, frizzy hair!!! I grew up in the 1960's & 70's. We had nothing as far as product's went, in those years to help my awful hair. I literally and seriously hated my hair. It was a nightmare! People would come and say, you are so lucky to have your naturally curly hair. I wanted to scream, and say you have no idea what you are talking about! However, I never said anything, because I was brought up to be a respectful young lady. Thank goodness that there is help with this kind of hair texture now. It takes a lot of work to get it smooth, but I can achieve it now. I'm happy that girls and women of today, don't have to go through what I had to go through. When I was raising my children, my daughter would ask me "mom how did you do it with no products?" I would reply honestly, and tell her that it was a difficult situation.

[@eonarts]

In the 80’s London brought out lots of products that did this. Then dupes arrived in the US but today it’s hard to find a pomade that doesn’t also set. Happy to have found this!

[@marleyhill34]

I'm black...people with straight fine to medium, low-density hair: just brush it....never brush dry wavy, curly, coily or kinky hair....unless you want an afro. while I'm over hair with kinky-coily-penspring high density but ultra fine hair....my hair would break and the comb.... so glad my trichologists taught me to comb my hair while damp with leave-in conditioner!!

[@lisaeger3960]

Thank you so much for the video! I have exactly the same hair type. I'm 59 and when I was younger that was exactly how my hair was. I have been trying to get back to it with the a proper cut, but now I have a lot more info. Awesome!!!!

[@Walkingtalkingprayer]

Oooh how do you cut it? Can you recommend a tutorial? Or make one? 😂❤️

[@tdhawk167]

My longer lengths are much more curly, and healthier looking. The shorter my hair is cut, the straighter and frizzier it gets. It's usually the opposite, at least with the people I know. I just stick with long layers. A long wolf cut, looks like a long lion mane. Works.

[@robincrowflies]

Two years ago, when I turned 55 and had my menopause, I got my butt-length hair cut into a shag. This is what happened--this is my hair routine--except I don't use any product at all. I finally have the hair I wanted when I was sixteen and got perms to achieve. LOL. I'm going to try with some product, just to play. Thank you.

Yes, I have the same kind of hair, and I agree it is hard to style. If you put too much product, it will become heavy! Thanks, I will try that product to see if I can style it better.

[@bethany45101]

I have this exact hair type. The top part is kind of straight and then underneath I have defined ringlets. My old old old hairdresser said it’s a genetic mixup in our bodies that gives us that hair. Idk how true that is but it is interesting to consider. I recently got a very short pixie cut and it has made my life so much easier styling and frizz wise. I have so much texture in my pixie without any work and the frizz is minimal.

I have the same type of hair. When it’s wet, I apply a lot of MOP TOP curling custard. I scrunch it into my hair and don’t touch it till it’s dry. Once it’s dry, the hair is crispy. I just take a towel and scrunch out the crunch. This makes my hair conditioned and smooth. No frizz.

[@denisemc607]

Same! Nice with your eyeliner. It took me 40 years to realise this to get my waves to do this - NOOOO combing or no towel drying. I leave in my Acid Blonde Redkin Conditioner to tame my highlight damage. John Frieda used to work well pre-bleach days and cheap x

What I have learned recently with our type of hair is: ends need friends. Waves/curls need other hair to form a wave or curl. Had a cut in April and the dresser cut my layers too short on the top so the bottom hair does not have much left. My hair is fine and wavy. Since April I have not had a good hairday and wearing it in a bun 😞

[@GoldDustX818]

Good Day. For decades I have bought everything under the Sun to stop exactly what was happening to your hair. Tools, OTC products, Wearing it up, hair wraps to cover the Frizz and Good luck if there is Humidity or a frizzy weather element no pun intended. I bought this cream just to see once again. I have for decades drying my hair exactly as shown however the too and side frizz would adventualy show. **** THIS product WORKS perfectly and actually lasts as stated the following day with a spray and crunch you're good to go. Thank you so very much. I have donated all my tools and unopened mega boxes of hair products. I now only have this. I will be stocking up in Fear it will be discontinued. I am so grateful to finally have the hair I have been praying for only for 35 years. My hair changed after my Son's birth and it's been a struggle since. Love your Shorts as well and have learned a lot. Bravo. 🌟💜❣️

Finally someone addressing exactly my hair and my hair problems😊😍! I also got a shag/ wolfcut some months ago and the hairdresser had curly hair herself and I feel like she was the first to cut away enough hair 😀. I didn’t have bangs though because she basically talked me out of them and I‘m not sure it looks flattering on me, but basically, it’s a lot of work and obviously needs to be recut soon. But then again a wolfcut looks coolest with bangs. 😅 The only thing I noticed that bothered me a little with this haircut was, ponytails and anything that can keep your hair out of your face, is not going to work anymore so keep that in mind. Anyway, thanks for the tips Sam, I‘m going to try it exactly like you showed even if my wolfcut is mostly grown out in a way.

SO VERY HAPPY I came across your channel. Oh how I needed this product for decades. I was using Bumble and nope didn't work. I was weary because I have been looking for ever. I bought 1 did exactly what you said and it has worked beautifully.!!!! Needless to say I returned and bought 3 more just in case. If anyone has this problem with their hair I can attest that this product 100% works. The following day or day 3 you can spritz your hair lightly with water and add THIS product, mold your hair and it stays in place, no Frizz, fly away and you DO NOT NEED Hairspray for a hold. This ☝️ is the Holy Grail to stop the Frizz War on our hair. I also spoke with a friend with longer hair that frizzes out and it works on her hair as well. Thank you Sam for such a Wonderful long overdue product that actually works, does not damage the hair and it's the gift for Wolf cuts that keeps on giving. 2 months into the product and will be using it FOREVER. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays. **** This is wonderfully priced as well and would make a great Christmas present 🎁 for your GF's with a Frizz issue. 🧡

I used to get the conditioner through my hair when it’s wet in the shower, of course starting at the bottom and working my way up and then letting the conditioner sit for a while, then rinse and never use a comb or brush until the next wash cycle, which is typically 4-5 days later.

I don’t rinse it.

[@puggirl415]

I have this type of hair and I have struggled getting it to perform as curly. I am lucky to have an experienced hair stylist who looks at everything before he decides my cut. I got a wolf cut/shag last time but because my hair is down to mid back it was modified for that length. It's a great cut because if the short top layers don't dry correctly you can simply rewet them and blow dry and the cut looks very cute with the longer layered bits curling up and the straight just curled under top hair just on the top of the crown. Makes your hair look like it has more volume and the curls look very flowy and spiraled in that area near my ends. I still use some products mainly for moisture but they do weigh my hair down so I twist each section with some gel to get more curl. If I got my hair cut like yours and really layered I could see how that might work for me. Good to know what could work cut -wise if I get tired of this longer hair.

[@JaneDoe-ys8no]
