I find it so interesting that Courtney and I both are wavies but we're SO different. I have less wavy hair and lower density. My hair LOVES leave-in conditioners and dislikes gel. Like the amount of gel she uses - my hair will go into serious product build up and overload. I use very little gel when I do use it. On the other hand my hair DRINKS leave-in conditioners. Curl creams are heavy for me too. Both wavies, both so different.

What do you use product wise? I have low porosity hair too. But everything I use, waves fall flat within a couple hours after dry
@GummyBear19724 ай бұрын
Tips for hair that fall flat... Microplop as much water as you can out of your hair, especially if you air dry. Water weighs waves down. Section your hair to ensure your styler is applied to all areas. Brush your styler through your hair to ensure even distribution and make sure you use enough to hold that wave with a cast.

Would love to see you use the same products but diffuse! It would be so interesting to see the difference it can make 😊

Crazy!! I just bought this shampoo last night.... Before I found this video. They did not have the matching conditioner, so I got bolero moisture and hydrate hair mask with coconut milk and banana. I did not see the gel .... Used these once and my hair feels great and looks pretty decent! Oh the dollars I could have been saving😂😂
@ruthannsolomon27948 ай бұрын
Very nice...I love watching your technique. Definitely need to diffuse, but it's refreshing that someone can start inexpensively. In addition to the ingredients you watch or for, I look to avoid artificial fragrance, which eliminates a lot of choices. But it's much healthier!
@GummyBear19724 ай бұрын
I hope you try these all again with diffusing and show the difference. Thanks for delving into affordable products for waves. Everyone likes saving money.

Cackling about the unicorn baby blankie plop! Thank you for doing this video. I only discovered your channel a month or two ago after discovering my frizzy dry hair is actually wavy. Then, I went down the rabbit hole, buying too many products. Then, I found "Curl Scan" and sadly tossed a few of the products I bought as they were not CG friendly. Then, I said, "What Am I Doing?!" I need to stop this madness and found this. Perfect. Back to basics is where I will feel most sane. (Plus, my hair is pink and purple (purpinkle?) so I know I have to customize.

I got one of those baby blankets as a "heat wrap" when I henna my hair, but I never thought to try it as a plopping towel!
@madsquishy34108 ай бұрын
Your hair looks beautiful and shiny! I would say just go ahead and diffuse next time. Rules are meant to be broken lol. Plus, even if someone was on a dollar tree budget they could still go get a cheap dryer and diffuser at walmart or on Amazon or something. Not your fault if the store doesn't carry something you need, right? But I still thought the hair looked great for such a minimal product routine.

Something to consider from hearing other people's testimonials is that silicones saved their bleached hair. I still wouldn't bleach my hair again but this was my experience as well. I also need a stronger shampoo formulation as someone who works out at least 4 times weekly and wants to go longer between washes.

When I gave up silicones my hair turned to crap. It is so much better since I am using them again.

I suspect that the gel already had a lot of water in it and that’s why it disappeared when you applied it. Maybe if you didn’t have dripping wet hair when it was applied you might have gotten a better result. I think it’s the gel that didn’t quite perform. Although your hair still looked very shiny and bouncy.

Hi to everyone! Hi Courtney. Great video as usual!! I had the same experience with the gel. I have tried Mixed Chicks with some great results. Really like the leave in conditioner from Mixed Chicks. Gives a very slight cast. Just started using V & Co. s/c. They do not have stylers as yet. Really enjoying them too. Also wanted to say that I ordered, via Etsy, a hair towel from MysticHairwear. I LOVE it. Some may say it's a bit expensive, but I use it just about every day. Would be a great request for Mother's Day?!
