The VIRAL Bowl Method made my hair CURLY?!

[@sddavis9874]

Ok. I tried this today. I wish I could leave a picture. I did modify it a bit. I have a bench in my shower, so I did the styling and the dipping in my shower. I have low density and low porosity hair. I’ve plopped my hair for 30 minutes. I, diffuse dried until it was a bout 50% to 60% dry. I just couldn’t hold the hairdryer any longer. I am disabled and have a lot of muscle weakness… But hunny! I’ve never had a wash day that looks so good.!!! I won’t do this all the time but for date night or a special occasion. I’m definitely doing this.

Tbh I loved the bowl method but it’s really inconvenient for everyday styling or even just doing it every few days

[@debraray5786]

Great video! I'm 70 -use the bowl method almost ALL the time! Put the bowl on a towel on a low counter and just bend from standing to do the routine-solves the pains!!

THANK YOU! I will def try it this way!

I love what you said at the beginning about wavy hair being the “before” I’ll have to check Kathryn out. Your results were gorgeous but I understand the time it takes is not really sustainable. Girrrl I often scrunch upside down and from side to side and I will tell you, I have some butt pain the next day 😂 I wonder about this Sophie girl, how she got the credit for the bowl method. I’ve been lurking around the wavy KZbins for many many years and seen tons of ppl doing bowl methods, then Sophie pops up last year and somehow gets the credit for originating it 🤔

It looks beautiful but girl I couldn’t. The amount of neck pain I would have. It’s too much effort for me. I can’t take a 30+ minute shower plus a 45+ minute hair routine after the shower

[@melindab]

I TOTALLY agree!

[@ashloudon]

Beautiful!

[@melindab]

Thank you!

I agree - a time/labor intense process. Sophie uses cream, then gel, then mousse. Why didn't you use gel?

[@melindab]

I linked the video of hers that I followed and she didn’t use a gel in that one! Which I was actually bummed about because I LOVE gel before mousse. I’ll have to find a routine where she uses both and try that one next! I wanted to stick super closely to the steps in this specific video for this wash day

[@dkb2375]

@@melindab Ah, I didn't see that original video. Here is a shortened version of where she uses both: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZzbiah3mNx0nLM

What do you do to sleep with wavy hair?? Because mine always straightens out at night Also, what diffuser do you use?

[@melindab]

I don’t do anything special with my hair overnight I just refresh it the next day because mine straightens out over night too. I use the xtava black orchid diffuser. I’ll link my Amazon storefront in the description box. It’s in there along with some of my other wavy hair favorites!

Got a cut a few months ago in a salon and she finally confirmed i have wavy hair. I have tried a few curly/wavy routines with not a lot of luck. I have yet to try the bowl method. I have used the NYM's curl talk gel and cream but stopped using it once I ran out. Currently just have mousse and spray leave in. Will that be enough or do u think a cream would still be better? My hair is very thick and not quite as long as yours. Very light waves.

[@melindab]

It’s worth trying with what you have! For wavy hair I typically use a leave in or a cream. Not both

Hmm…I can’t hear you after like 4 minutes. Just me?

[@melindab]

Oh no

[@melindab]

I can hear the audio! Hopefully it’s just a glitch on your KZbin? 😩
