[@tlparker85]

Your hair turned out gorgeous as usual 🥰 Definitely going to get those jumbo clips, thanks for linking them!

[@BrittanyMia]

thank you 😊 , you're so welcome!

[@michellewhite6938]

I watched this video regarding Innersense Quiet Calm Curl Control because (1) I purchased it while on sale (2) it was Innersense and should work on kinky coils and (3) I wanted to see your results. Prior to using it, my kinky curly stylist informed me that the product works better on Caucasian type hair so I never used it and I’m not mad! You used a lot of product to get that bomb wash in go! I rather just keeping it simple. Thanks for showing us that we have options and I enjoy your aesthetically relaxing videos 🥰

[@BrittanyMia]

I purchased this while it was on sale at Ulta as well. I hadn’t heard much about the product, but I like the brand and its values. At first, I did use it a lot. I was a lil concerned lol. I was trying to figure out what to do and quickly discovered that it’s best used as a leave-in/primer. But once I figured out what I was doing, I wasn’t using all that much at all. Now I know I can, without a doubt, get at least six uses out of this one bottle. This is great to see because it’s a new favorite for me 🥳 Thanks for watching 🫶🏾 ☺️

[@felicia_716]

Yeah that curl cream doesn't have any hold. I use it like leave in or base like you did. Beautiful results!

[@BrittanyMia]

I don’t even know why I thought it would have hold lol that has never been the case.

[@downwardbrainspiral]

@@BrittanyMia idk if it's just me but i find it to be very minimal when it comes to getting a defined + moisturised outcome when mixed with gels it's meh, in my opinion kinky curly does a way better job

[@rachelm.3173]

Curly Sue 🥰 I love it! Every day looks exactly the same. Impressive!

[@ericaford1454]

Your hair is BEAUTIFUL!!! And Ouidad Recovery Mask is one of my staples. AND Your video is perfect!!! Not too much unnecessary talking, chill music, you got right to the point, showed clear results in great lighting. Please hold a class and teach the girls👩🏽‍🏫

[@BrittanyMia]

🙌🏾 It’s great to have you here!

[@Dgirl22s]

Your hair looks amazing! Great vid as usual. Appreciate you showing the products and saying how much you use, so many don't. It's not that we'll copy exactly what you do but it can help some of us with determining if maybe we need a little more or less product. I've had aha moments from watching vids before 😂

[@BrittanyMia]

Thank ya 💜 Me too! It’s always great to have a reference point. Why am I watching you do your hair if you're only going to show me halfway? 😩 it irks me so.

[@aunawalton2792]

Finally somebody with my exact hair

[@naomiomi4503]

Coming back and looking at these results after trying quiet calm control n ufd I realize it's a nice and soft wash n go that appears fuller.

[@BrittanyMia]

For sure. I love a soft wash and go 🧏🏾‍♀️ it gives great volume

[@MookieBaylah]

@@BrittanyMia have you tried calm control with I create hold? If so, how long did the set last?

[@nicki1050]

A mask that gets warm on its own. That's kinda amazing. Your hair is beautiful ❤️

[@BrittanyMia]

Top tier. Thanks 🙏🏾

[@pj4kds]

I truly love your curls!😍♥️👍

Thank you 💕

[@y.m.4810]

Another bomb result🤩 Thanks to you, I think I am an in shower wash n go convert! My initial attempt a couple of weeks ago was underwhelming, but I've been doing it since and my results get better each time! There's definitely a learning curve with how much water/product to use (esp since I'm experimenting with so many different products to get through my stash lol), but I'm enjoying the process. My last wash n go I did was with Curls B N Control Curl Sculpting Gel and I was impressed! It foamed up so much when I added enough water so the application was very enjoyable, and I got a pretty result. The main thing I've been struggling with though is maintaining my wash n gos. It's like they only last a day or two before I have to put my hair in a puff. Do you have any tips on longevity? I feel like my hair just gets smushed under my bonnet and my curls don't bounce back once I uncover it. My hair stays smushed and when I zhuzh it up, pulling and tugging to get it in shape, it just looks lifeless and stiff :( I think I could definitely use a shaping hair cut and that would help, but I don't have a trusted hair stylist for that yet so I'm just trying to work with what I have 😭I recently got a buff so I'm hoping it will work better than my bonnet, but we'll see. Sorry for the long post! Once again gorgeous results! I look forward to your next upload :)

[@BrittanyMia]

Ayyye! I’m thrilled to hear that you’re enjoying the process. That’s what it’s about 💜 experimenting is always the way. My hair lacked bounce back and structure when I didn’t go in with a primer/ leave-in or custard first. My base styler works to soften my hair up and make it pliable for the topper, which keeps the curls 🔒 yet bouncy and flexible. I hope that helps! And let me know how that buff works out. I’m inquisitive about switching up my sleeping style with my hair 😚🖤

[@y.m.4810]

@@BrittanyMia Hey, Britanny! I haven't used leave in for a while now, but I do have a couple in my stash so I'll definitely try it out for one of my next wash n gos! I can't wait to finish up my current gels so I can step into that UFD life lol. I'll keep you updated on the buff too☺. Thanks for the advice!

[@coco604]

First off, love your profile pick! Such a cute cat. Based on your description, it seems like your hair needs more moisture for your wash and gos. I also had the issue of losing shape and excessive frizz when I didn’t use a leave in/cream (or at least a good one). Try layering your hold products on top of a leave in, cream, or botanical moisturizing gel.

[@y.m.4810]

@@coco604 Aw thank you! Your pfp is adorable as well☺️ thanks for the advice! I’ve been trying to perfect my wash n gos since and I commented on a recent video that I think I figured it out: my wash n gos had no crunch! Having a crunchy wash n go is a key for me to longevity + I finally learned the best method to preserve for me. Also, layering gels like you mentioned is something I definitely enjoy the results of. I haven’t experimented too much with leaves ins/creams but I want to down the line. Do you have any fave combos? Thanks again!

[@coco604]

@@y.m.4810 Yes, crunch in your W+Gs is so important. I had an issue with this week's wash and go when I used a combo that gave me high definition, but no crunch, and it frizzed to such a degree that I had to wash my hair AGAIN. Some of my fave combos are the curlsmith protein cream and pattern curl mouse, the pattern styling cream and umberto giannini curl jelly, and the twist bounce cream and miche sculpt gel.

[@mariefs.]

Love the results ❤

[@BrittanyMia]

Thank you! 😊

[@monicamitchell538]

I used to have a lot of frizz afterwards in my crown, I realized it was the shaking. So now I shake lightly to help prevent it.

[@BrittanyMia]

Thanks for the tip!

[@PreppyFay12]

If you are interested in trying a different Innersense styler with some hold I would try the Innersense I Create Volume on top of UFD Curly Magic as a base! I think you might like that look more with more hold and bigger hair.

[@BrittanyMia]

Thank you for the suggestion. I got the Curl Control on sale at Ulta, and I thought it could help with giving me bigger hair, but nope! I’ll look into I Create Volume for sure.

[@angerleanhammond1143]

your hair always turn out really pretty nice and curly when you do your wash and go, but do you ever do anything else like braid outs or twist outs.

[@BrittanyMia]

No, I don’t. It’s not because I don’t like those styles; I do. Braid outs and twist outs are gorgeous. I just don’t want to do them.

[@angerleanhammond1143]

@@BrittanyMia ok i was just wondering because I see other women with natural hair do braid outs and twist outs so I thought I would ask. Thank you. Your wash and goes are beautiful. My hair is growing back from having breast cancer twice and it's at my ear lobe now.

[@BrittanyMia]

@@angerleanhammond1143 Absolutely. Thanks, I appreciate it. And that’s fantastic! Big ups to you for beating breast cancer twice. Sounds like good hair progression to me 🙌🏾

[@createyourlegendarylife]

This turned out super nice. And before the video finished I had already placed a pickup order at Ulta for the cream. 😂🤦🏾‍♀️ Gotta use up this UFD (I like Kinky Curly better... btw, Whole Foods has it on sale til the 16th).

[@BrittanyMia]

Have you tried the quiet calm curl control yet?

[@createyourlegendarylife]

@Brittany Mia yeah... I didn't like it. I maybe didn't use enough or something, but I felt like it didn't do anything for my hair. 😖 But it was fun experimenting. 😁

[@BrittanyMia]

@@createyourlegendarylife it’s something about the Innersense products. I absolutely love them, I just wish they were better for definition (the leave-ins and creams). They do a great job at moisturizing my hair but there’s almost no hold. Yet for some reason I still love that cream 😅. Tfs.

[@createyourlegendarylife]

​@Brittany Mia Yeah, I love the shampoos & conditioners. The spray leave-in was ok. Right now I've pretty much paired down to Kinky Curly (both steps) + Mousse Def. Or when I want more clumpage, just the leave-in + Mousse Def (it's drier though). I've learned I prefer bigger clumps. You commented something recently to someone about why you don't really use UFD anymore and you articulated why I don't really like it. I was trying to use up what I had left decided to just let it go b/c it wasn't going to get better. Couldn't get the product/water ratio right either. 🤦🏾‍♀️ Trying to figure out how much I like Ouidad Anti-Humidity Gel... I thought I liked it, but now I dunno. LOL. And as of recently, I think it agitates my hairline. 😢

[@BrittanyMia]

@@createyourlegendarylife Same. I just tried the spray leave-in and it confused me lol but more to come on that. Good! You have some core products that work for you, love that. I have 3 salon sizes of the UFD Curly Magic that I purchased during the half off event they did last year and we're just lookin at each other like 👀. Idk how i'll like the Ouidad Anti_Humidity Gel without the UFD. I'd HAVE to use a cream because it makes my hair soooo stiff with a light leave-in. If it agitates you're hairline issa no.

[@JazzmynDesir]

Heyyyy boo which is your favorite oiudad shampoo and conditioner?

[@BrittanyMia]

I love the ultra nourishing cleansing oil shampoo and the curl quencher moisturizing conditioner.

[@burgandiwatson2477]

Wow beautiful hair!!

[@BrittanyMia]

Thank you!!

[@kearstenw3855]

I know, it shocked me the first time I used it too. All of a sudden my head start getting hot and then I found out it's supposed to do that, LOL

[@BrittanyMia]

When I first used it, I swore I would never use it again. I forget just how hot it gets because I use it like once a month, if that. Each time it surprises me 😂

[@kearstenw3855]

@@BrittanyMia It's some good stuff!!!

[@leoskiss3390]

I just used this mask and it freaked me out how hot it got! I threw it away lol 😅 and also after I read finally read the back label it says not use with 24 hours of chemical services??? Too weird to me so I won’t be using again

[@sabrinacambridge3327]

Your hair is gorgeous.

Gracias 💕

[@aleialaw]

My curls must be the only ones that hate the curly magic. I keep trying to make it work but it makes my hair a sticky, goopy mess.

[@BrittanyMia]

It doesn’t work for a lot of curls I’ve learned. But have you tried the kinky-curly custard? I’d use that one all the time if it were more affordable, it’s a staple.

[@mansakali7276]

Are you using it on soaking wet hair? The Curly Magic draws water in and using more water may help distribute it better.

[@aleialaw]

@@mansakali7276 yup. Right in the shower.

[@madih473]

Did you get any flaking?

[@BrittanyMia]

I had no flaking with this combo 🤎

[@quelsplace5956]

I feel curl cream after definitely made it worse

For sure
