how I fixed my damaged wavy hair

[@LimeCoookie]

Using lots of conditioner, squish to condish, and using praying hands on soaking wet hair to put in curl cream has given me my nicest waves\curls yet! I think I might be needing a bit of a protein treatment as well though

[@lissettegutierrez2876]

I love being on this curly hair journey with you! I am just starting out, and find you through your curly hair videos. The fact that you broke down the difference between protein and moisture overload is a huge game changer! I’ve tried looking that up in the past, but I never could figure out the difference with my hair, but now thanks to you, I do! Keep on rockin the curls girl! It’s doing wonders for you!!

[@bextree]

Yay, glad you were able to figure out how to improve your hair's health! My wavy hair game changer is using a mousse. my hair is fine, gets weighed down easily, and needs a product with some hold to maintain my waves. I've been using Not Your Mother's mousse and I've been really enjoying it! I apply it after plopping for around 10-30 minutes

[@yoselinurquizaurbina]

I’m so happy I found this channel! My hair looks great now!! Love you Taylor

[@howtopasstime]

The kinky curly curling custard is my holy grail, imo it’s great for wavy hair and it prioritizes clumping and smoothness and no frizz over hold, I like it like that though. A big game changer also was just like plopping, but kinda “guiding” the plop in the direction of your curl if that makes sense, so your curls don’t kinda fold over each other

[@SwavyBlonde]

My biggest game changer was stopping silicones completely. My hair was the opposite to yours, in protein overload so it was just snapping off. Silicones were making it straight, heavy and dry. So, quitting silicones, adding moisture to my hair, quitting towel drying it and adding leave in and gel really helped out my hair very much.

[@emilybrackett9571]

I’ve got brown long naturally wavy hair, to the small of my back. I’ve always hated my hair, but as a mom, a wife, and all the other 🧢 that I wear I was tired of the upkeep to maintain the look I wanted. Since I was a teenager I bleached my hair blond or put highlights in my natural brown hair, plus blow dried my hair with a stiff bristled brush, and straightened my hair with a flat iron 😩. I done tons of damage FOR YEARS. Recently I am just tired of maintain the maintenances with all of that work just to keep my blond straight hair. My point is just accept ur natural hair it’s beautiful 😍. Thanks to this video I realize that I need to find a different shampoo and conditioner and I also have MOISTURE OVER LOAD IN MY HAIR!!! So that’s why my hair looks terrible and I’ve just been throwing it up in a messy bun. So thank you so so much for this information I’m going to go get a protein treatment this evening and put it in my hair tonight 🤞it works.

Shea moisture was one of the first brands I tried when I started the wavy/ curly journey and it did pretty good on my hair gave me good definition then when I started going blonde last January I switched to more high end products like MoroccanOil and by mid summer my hair had no defined wave pattern and I was taking care of it as well 😔 around November I did the reverse balayage toned the blonde down and started using Shea moisture products again and I can see my hair slowly getting it’s wavy/ curly pattern back it’s like you said being blonde is nice but it damages so much! Try the Shea moisture Jamaican black castor oil strength and restore hair mask it has protein in it

Hey Taylor, You should boil flax seeds for 15 min and use it's water on your hair after you get out of the bath OMG it's revolutionary, the result is amazing and it's organic and natural and it has a lot of benefits, I promise it's super great, I got my natural curls back after they went bad bc of constant hair bleaching. Boiled flax seeds can define the curls and maintain their structure.

[@Anatheglamorous]

I recently got a hair dryer with a diffuser and it was a gamechanger for me. Before the hair dryer I would always let it airdry and that would just take ages. I still don't fully diffuse it so it doesn't get frizzy and loose shine. This way I get a lot more volume than when I air dry. But keeping the balance between protein and hydration is sooooo hard.

[@HansensUniverseT-A]

Short answer is simple drugstore products that contain zero proteins and other wacky ingredients, all a hair product needs to do is clean, literally. If you want good hair than focus on overall body health, shield your hair from excessive heat and mechanical stress, allow your scalp to build up sebum which is great to distribute in the hair as nature intended us to, that's literally it, just sulfate clean and let it air dry. Take my word of experience on this, the people i know that have great or amazing hair all use cheap and simple drugstore products, there is no need for anything else, saloon products are a major scam and contains ingredients that will destroy our hair in the long run, sometimes to the point where it has to be cut off.

[@Zenfart]

I got this stuff called “Sauce” from Sally’s and it’s a deep conditioner, I would use it once a week and that stuff was amazing. Highly recommend ❤️

[@katielorraine8967]

I need to try a protein treatment! Since I turned 21 (I'm 24 now) my hair has gone through so many different phases and curl/wave patterns. My biggest game changer has honestly been using two turbies! One right after I get out of the shower to keep my hair from being super week and then another one to plop.

Aveda products are really great and using a microfiber towel to scrunch my curly hair has seriously helped so much! :)

So I have 2C, fine, low density, high porosity hair. I stopped using heavy ass products and started using less amounts in my hair to not weigh down the curls! Right now I’m using a mix of the As I Am Coconut Cowash and the Giovanni Tea Tree Triple Treat shampoo/conditioner depending on if I’m clarifying or just rewashing my hair 💕 I wash every 4 days, and I clarify only once a week! I also stopped bleaching my hair. My natural black hair is super cute and it looks much more shiny than when it was blonde! For my styling products I use the Curls Blueberry Bliss leave in, AC Re:Coil cream, and the Innersense I Create Lift Foam/Ouidad Climate Control Gel 💕 If you have fine, low density hair, STOP PUTTING LAYERS IN YOUR HAIR!!!! Your hair turns see through and weird, you have random “bald spots” from your hair not being weighed down enough to cover your scalp, and it looks SO AWFUL 😭 if your hair is long you can get away with long layers but PLEASE don’t cut any layers above your ear. It will save you the time and agony of trying to grow them back out because the back of your head look ridiculous 💀💀💀
