TRYING THE HAIR BOWL METHOD ON MY NEWLY DISCOVERED WAVY HAIR! Did It Work??? TYPE 2A/2B Hair

Hey guys! Today we're trying the bowl method for my newly discovered wavy hair. IDK. I had higher hopes. It doesn't look bad but I think it's improving. I'm going to keep trying different options. I do really like the Curlsmith products that I used, so I shall keep experimenting using those! But as far as the bowl method, I probably won't do it again. Just seems kind of pointless for my wavy 2a/2b hair. Maybe it works better for wavier/curly hair? Also, diffusing my hair took forever. I don't have the patience for that either Lol. Let me know what you think in the comments below! I hope I did it right :D #wavyhair #wavyhairroutine #bowlmethod

I had straight hair that would not hold any curl when I was a kid. I used to get perms put in to get waves. After I had my first child I realized my hair had some wave to it. I honestly don't know how to deal with my hair either. I'm such a low maintenance person when it comes to my hair. I love that you're doing these videos. Might help me learn how to style mine as well. Thank you for sharing your journey!

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Of course! I actually tried something else today at home (I haven’t done a video yet) and it’s low maintenance and seemed to work pretty well for me! I’ll keep trying it and share a video on it. No way I could do the bowl method and diffuser every day Lol

Try shaking your hair out at your roots after your hair is completely dry! It'll help with the flat roots and also will give more volume to your hair 🙂 Love your vids Lainey!!!!! 💜

[@EverythingAndNothing08]

I never really understood why everyone was loving the bowl method. I never tried it myself since my waves are much less defined if I have too much water in my hair when styling. Your hair looks good, though! If this is something you choose to continue trying just know that you'll probably have more bad than good hair days for a while. I quickly learned that you can watch all the videos in the world but in the end you have to experiment and figure out what works best for your hair. I also have fine hair and can't use a lot of product. I think especially at the beginning a hard hold gel is going to be your best friend. Honestly, I don't even have the energy to style my own hair wavy very often these days. Leaving it straight is so much easier!

[@amandabourland2518]

When using the defuser, flip your head upside down so that way you are getting the top of your head. Hopefully you'll get waves where it was flat. It looks great though. ❤

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thank you so much!!!!

[@amandabourland2518]

@@LaineyMarieBeauty you're welcome

[@kathybaranyai671]

Yeah, it was too much for me to do the entire curly girl method. Your hair is gorgeous with the beachy waves. I use a spray bottle to refresh curls in the morning with some scrunching. Air dry, scrunch out the crunch. It revives the product, at least for me. I also root clip after scrunching with smallish spider clips. I also scrunch roots. Thanks for sharing!

[@MissAyce]

I love it, I have been curious about this method too. I’ve been on this journey in new ways to care for my hair. Thanks for sharing this in a more beginner friendly way 😊

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

You’re welcome! I’m not sure if I’ll do it again but I had to try ❤

[@katappleton4230]

I tried hard with curlsmith and a lot of wavy girl methods. I struggled. My hair never looked right. I hope all goes well on your journey though! It looks like you have more wave than me so that’s good! Just keep trying other products!

😆😆no bc it really does

[@mollym2955]

Not so bad Lainy.I turned 61 in February and have found my hair not as thick as it used to be so I think I'd like to see if products would give me some much needed volume. I have a couple of questions Lainy....1. Do you brush your hair completely before applying your product or when you first wash your hair? And 2. You note that the top of your head still seems somewhat flat...so maybe begin applying your product to the top of your head first then working your product to the ends of your hair! Then scrunch and begin the defuser from the roots and gradually until your done with your ends.!?

[@SuzanneHarden]

For volume on top of the head, scrunch at the roots the way you scrunch the length. If using heat on the top of the head, scrunch upside-down and allow to cool a little while upside down. Also, get your product on your roots. I had watch spring curls when I was younger. Now, it’s more like yours. Hope this helps! You’re doing great!!

[@camnangsong68]

👍👏

[@hopesmith3741]

Get the top of your hed wet too and remember to scrunch your roots with product; that might give you the volume you're looking for instead of that "helmet" look!❤

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Ooo okay! I’ll try that. Thank you!!❤

[@terrybarnhill8451]

Love it!!! I agree can’t do that everyday either. You are 😎

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thank you so much!!❤

It looks great, nicely done!❤

[@traceywassenberg2337]

I love that you are doing all the testing 😂

[@anniwilson2534]

It looks lovely, but I agree far too time consuming! Was the bowl of water warm or cold?

[@dawna8695]

Hey, I was (finally) just looking into this yesterday. After my first child-just like other commenters, I got a wave in my fine and straight hair. I would always just brush it out to keep it neat but it could get frizzy. I read that I need to brush way differently if at all and learned about 'plopping'. Like Lainey I've got a back part and also just not really used to the... free flowing fluffiness? Thanks for posting about your journey with this!

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Ohhh yes! I need to try plopping! And give that a go!

[@Crystal13164]

I struggle with the flat root area too. I think it ruins the overall look for me. And I can go longer between washings if I wear my hair straight.

[@annagamba3221]

Would be really nice if you could show us how it looks the next day or after you wear it in a bun for few hrs. There us no way we can go around always with the hair down especially with the heat. My guess is that it looks very messy and as far as you can not brush it i dont know what sence does it make. Either wear it ALL the time down or brush it gently and get back the ‘before’ result right after that ……. Please correct me if i am wrong

[@kayiclaneditz359]

When diffusing your hair also try use a claw clip and dry it so u will get some volume

[@333Lovelylaura]

What diffuser and blow dryer is that?

[@Shelley-gf2sg]

I love it but it was too fast I can't figure out what you did?😢

[@FaceItGrace]

I need a stronger cleanser as a gym rat with an oily scalp, need a lighter weight conditioning product as I also have fine hair, and love a harder hold product! Raking and scrunching in a mousse is great for volume. I don't follow CGM but make sure I'm giving my hair and scalp what they need to thrive, and pick styling products based on my hair texture.

[@joanneshaw3071]

I do this to my hair occasionally however I spent a lot more time with the bowl of water than you did plus I didn’t use as much water I think you have diluted the products too much. I also used 2 products and did the dunking in the water. I then spent some time “plopping” the curls plus a fair amount of time diffusing. I ended up with heaps of volume and amazing curls and my hair is less wavy than yours when I just air dry. I believe if you add additional steps as mentioned you will get the volume you’re looking for and a lot more curls

[@Tamara_R_Blodgett]

I tried diffusing and it was a total time-suck. I do the work in the shower and air dry. So much better. I use LA Looks to hold the wave/curl

[@MichaelSmith-zs1xx]

Good job

[@MaryseRacine7640]

I totally understand you and your newly found curly hair. I was 23 years old (35 years ago) when I found mine and they are a little bit more curly than yours! My mom hates curly hairs. I found out hers are also curly and she hates them. Hers are like yours… my daughter’s are crazy curly, like a spring. I don’t recommend doing the bowl at all. Whatch Mell by the manes. She help me and my daughter a lot and we are styling our hair once a week.

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thank you so much!! I will check her out ❤

[@BionAvastar3000]

Try brush styling it wet and then just letting it air dry. The less you use heat, the more pronounced your wave pattern will become.

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

Thank you thank you!!!

[@EverythingAndNothing08]

Air drying my wavy hair has never worked for me. It just ends up super flat so I have to diffuse.

[@kellydukepoo2450]

My hair dries like yours. I look like a crazy woman! I don't have a defuser tho 😕

[@LaineyMarieBeauty]

I just got a diffuser and am glad I did!

[@kellydukepoo2450]

@@LaineyMarieBeauty maybe I should invest in one.

Thanks for video ,but like u said rhis lost work, may do every once in while. Hope when you dl a pole on side buns that enough people say yes they like see videos on side buns. HAVE GREAT DAY ❤ 5:42

Your hair isnt just wavy, it's curly!!

[@totallyrandom1126]

I love that you try all the gimmicks but honestly this one is ridiculous. A lot of work for little payoff. Simply putting curl products in wet hair and scrunching it and then DON’T TOUCH until dry will yield you great results. That’s what I do and I have wavy hair.. You have fabulous hair and what a talent for styles. I am envious of your creativity.
