youtube failed to mention this about my curls

The video I needed when I started my curly hair journey…
I curated this curly hair routine based on advice from curly hair stylists + curl researchers + my personal experience
It’s a bit unconventional and counter-intuitive, so I appreciate anyone who is willing to listen and learn ❤️
My hair was around 2A when I started my journey, and I think I’m at around 3B / 3C now?
Out of all the routines I’ve tried, this has made my curls:
- Less frizzy
- Tighter
- Less reliant on product
- Look better without product
- Softer
- Have ‘Disney hair’ movement
- Improve over time
Here are some of the stylists/creators that I have learnt the most from
1. curlhealer - Acacia, Curly Hair Stylist
2. curlvision - Dusty, Curly Hair Stylist
3. shaiamiel - The Curl Doctor
4. sarahingleofficial
5. blowoutproffesor
Their advice can conflict each other’s, just do what makes sense to you!
⚠️this video is no hate to influencers, they helped me SO much… my problem is with the companies misguiding them to sell products⚠️

GIRL! I JUST USED YOUR HAIRWASHING METHOD AND IM AMAZED BY THE RESULTS. my hair has more movement now, it still got frizzy but im starting to taking care of it now so i know is not a one-night solution. the innersense products are a lil bit pricey for me but one day i will try them. THANK U A LOT for sharing your routine, i was using oil in my ends and i didn't understand why it was so frizzy and i never got a clump well define, I WAS MAKING A HUGE MISTAKE AND I DIDN'T KNOW. THANK U SO MUCH

[@sarahssuperspa]

Omg I’m so so so glad!!! Keep us updated on the progress this is amazing to hear🤗🤗

[@isabella.amaraa]

I can tell sharing this routine makes you so happy! I’m so excited!

[@sarahssuperspa]

Let me know if you try it!!🤗

[@parkseora1264]

Thank you so much for this video. I just started learning how to style and care for my curly hair. I used to hate my curly hair because people around me always told me that only straight hair is beautiful and I should straighten it. I was really insecure about my hair. You are a really beautiful person and I want to try to be more confident with my hair and love it more like you. Thank you so much❤️

[@tonie48]

I don’t think double shampooing your hair is controversial at all, I feel that’s the standard of what you’re supposed to do

[@scorpianna420]

Right. I've done that since I was little. Always have, always will. It doesn't necessarily mean u have to use a lot of shampoo

[@leo.mood304]

points to help me :) (heavily based on my hair type) thicker hair- brush your hair when there's conditioner in it, dont brush it before going into the shower, it can be damaging. leave the shampoo in your scalp and ends for a while before washing it off shampoo your hair twice(already doing it lmao), rinse off the shampoo REALLY well start detangling (while conditioner is on) from bottom to top- use your fingers to brush through your hair clumping is a sign of healthiness in your hair- the more your follow this routine, the more clumping you get if your using hair cream, make sure to get every strand of hair and not just the clumps- a lot of water and a bit of product separating clumps and making sure every curl moves on its own is important to not make your hair stiff dry your hair with a towel, in clumping motions and make sure your hair isnt sticking to your scalp to avoid a flat headed look when your hair isnt wet(just damp), use a hair dryer and make sure to focus the air onto the base of your neck area because thats where hair dries the slowest and you want your hair to dry at the same rate having dry hair when you sleep is very important, otherwise when you will develop more dandruff 23:27 tie your hair like this when you go to bed to avoid frizziness

[@katherinelima9158]

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I feel like curly hair method had indeed ruin my curl’s also made my hair unhealthy. It’s nice seeing someone different, teach the opposite of what curlyies are used too.

[@gukvenchy8173]

I'm going to try this and pray that my curls come back to themselves. My curls come and go and they really be out here doing their own thing. Since it's started to get colder and wetter in the UK my curls have gone limp and lifeless again, it's a constant battle with the elements I swear 🙄

[@sarahssuperspa]

The water is so tragic! I’m back in Pakistan right now and after just 1 quick wash my curls look 100x better than when I try hard in the UK

[@anavicky335]

I’m so excited! I’ve been following the routine on your story and it’s made such a difference for me already because I didn’t even know how to use these products! I can’t to watch this and get all the details 💞💞

[@sarahssuperspa]

That makes me so happy!! Keep us all updated 🥹🤗

[@luciarivera8996]

Girl, you have no idea how much I've been waiting for you to show us your haircare routine 🙈😆 It is actually quite similar to mine, except for the excessive water part 😅 I will definitely try it, though

[@sarahssuperspa]

I’m SO sorry it took this long 😭 I need to step up my KZbin game thank you for being here!!

Thank you so much for this in depth routine! Your hair looks so healthy and gorgeous, can’t wait for my next wash day

[@sarahssuperspa]

Thank you for watching!! Please share your thoughts 🥹💕

[@AKisonline]

@@sarahssuperspahey Sarah! I’ve been doing the routine since you’ve posted it and I’m not exaggerating my hair has not looked better. Thank you for sharing this. And to everyone else, try this method! It really works! I don’t have the same products but the technique still works for me and is really gentle on my hair. I love how low maintenance this is with the no styling after. My curls are really individually defined, soft and bouncy. I don’t use any excess products because I have really sensitive and eczema prone skin and my curls last for 3-4 days. Though I still do use oil on my hair usually argan oil during the day and do oil masks now and then. Again, thanks Sarah! 💗

[@dwlrma]

ur such a lifesaver ily

[@ailurii]

I would absolutely *love* a flaxseed gel tutorial! 💗

[@grmw7]

boil two spoons of flaxseeds with a small cup of water until it's slimy you can use it like that but if you want to oil your hair at the same time and use it as a mask i put a spoon of coconut oil and spoon of black sesame oil

[@urslanursla2520]

Can you make more hair videos, your hair is so lovely and I believe it will help a lot of girls/women struggling with hair like yours 🤗

I am a curly girl too and I stopped using oils about two years ago and my curls are so pretty now also I don't use shampoo like ever unless for some reason I use a lot of product I only use herbal essences conditioner as a co-wash and it works so well as long as you only use the conditioner it also smells so amazing I'm so happy with it and it's such a small change that makes a huge difference

[@terkimmalo]

Hi Sara, I’m new to your channel. 😊 I was just wondering… do you think you could list the hair washing products that you use? Also if there are links to purchase them? I would really love that! Thank you for sharing your beautiful curly hair routine and journey! I can’t wait to start mine! 🫶🏼

[@suzannasaurus5]

how can someone be so gorgeous omgg but this routine made me realise i need to step up my hair care 💀

[@belindamarie3222]

Thx so much for the very detailed info on how you do your curly gurl hair routine. It's great! Where's the flexi gel info? I'd love to make it..or buy it.

[@sarahssuperspa]

I have a KZbin short and tiktok about it! I will make a KZbin video for a more detailed version soon too

[@actuallyarjun]

curly haired guy here xD. Imna see which of these methods work for me! Trying not to look homeless while growing out curly hair feels impossible. The goal is to make my hair look as healthy as yours when it dries :) Also, do you detangle your curls on the days you don't wash em? (I've got thick 3A curls so I use an afro pick for detangling and I'm wondering if it's bad to mess with them everyday)

[@afiyafathima3656]

This video was amazing , you explained it so well. I was wondering if you do anything fot hair growth

[@sarahssuperspa]

Thank you! My hair has always grown pretty well, although I noticed an increase after implementing scalp massages more than anything💖 I follow Anastasia beauty fascia on KZbin/tiktok

[@xoxorosequartz]

i had curly hair after puberty and i didn’t know what to do so i would just use 2 in 1 and look like a bush and when i tried cgm it made my hair so ugly so i started straightening my hair and now it’s wavy from all the damage. I think my hair could be 3a naturally but right now it’s on it’s last life and it’s like 2c at best

[@sosohelal]

this is the first time ive finally found someone with a similar hair texture and curl pattern to mine. my hair looks exactly like yours when youre explaining the routine, if i havent done anything crazy to it between washes. I'll have to give this routine a go 🤩🤩❤️❤️

[@gremlin2320]

Do you ever tend to switch up your shampoo/conditioner? Just wondering because I’ve been told that the same products can use their effect after a while of continual use but not sure if that’s true! :)

[@-farawla]

You are so beautiful ❤ ive been wanting to start my natural hair journey but it’s needing a lot of courage 😂. I have been getting keratins treatments which feels like torture. I think my hair is heroically maintaining certain level of healthiness however a lot of women opted to cut their damaged hair straight hair and I don’t want to do that 😢 is there anyway to work around this? My hair is mid back, healthy, but the older strands are more straighter than my roots. Advice please?

[@dafnecf8882]

I use to move my long hair in the same way under water ☺️

[@hazaubel6532]

Super helpful thank you so much !! Your so underrated and very beautiful

[@AnoushaSpeaks]

Flax seed gel video pls!

[@judithlirios3050]

I put oils on my hair once a week before getting into the shower because oils help hair to grow and stop the hair fall. What do you think? Also, curly hair method made my hair thicker as well, and I didn't know what I was doing wrong... What I'm doing right now is brushing it dry because if I brush it wet I feel like a lot of hair is falling and also it stays tangled and dirty...

[@zucchini_flowers]

The biggest thing I've learned throughout my life in terms of hair care is that it's so completely dependent on your own personal hair type, skin type, etc, and nothing is truly a fix for everything

[@Jjrs598]

What would you recommend for deep conditioning/ treatments?

[@user-lt9et7tr8w]

Is the colour radiance daily conditioner what you use? There are the pure inspiration and the hydrating cream alongside

[@grmw7]

you’re stunning please how do you take care of your eyelashes

[@jasminecomer9436]

What diffuser did you use in your other video? I need it in my life

[@psb6479]

Can we brush the hair with wide tooth comb after its dry , or we should not brush at all when its dry ??

[@sg-cg6lr]

Do you know how to keep flaxseed gel from flaking? Any tip is much appreciated!

[@sarahssuperspa]

It doesn’t flake much tbh but I do find that since I started using curl cream before it has helped the flaking- also I don’t let it sit and thicken for too long before transferring it, which seems to help too

[@taratravis7527]

Please show us how to make the flaxseed gel

[@hoopette]

Thankyou, I have almost the exact same hair as you and this is very helpful, you're the best KZbin lady for beauty advice🫶🥰

[@yellowappearances4425]

i have kinda curly hair and i feel like its been getting curlier over time but im just not happy with the way it looks. I wanted big curly long hair (funny enough I stumbled over this vid and had a semi stroke seeing your hair, like, can i please snatch someeee) I just cant seem to get it and especially with the whole volume thing I cant seem to find something that works.

[@sunnyhunnybunnie]

Do you comb your hair in between washes?

[@allyb34]

What if I don’t want curlier hair though?,cause I actually prefer a looser wave pattern?Do you have any advice for that as well?

[@sarahssuperspa]

I think the healthiest routines will make your curls look how they’re meant to- whether that’s loose or tight, for me that’s the best! I feel that trying to push your hair into something it isn’t naturally would have to be through ‘unhealthy’ methods if that makes sense!💕

[@allyb34]

@@sarahssuperspa Hmm that actually makes a lot of sense,thank you!🥰

[@Aaarandom]

I’ve noticed my hair is curlier with oil but it also looks stringy? However with no oil it barely wants to curl. Does anyone know what that means? I’d appreciate any advice. Also, my scalp gets oily pretty quickly but my ends are dry and a little tangly on a normal day

[@mikki_desu9699]

Sounds like you need to wash more, with a better shampoo and conditioner

[@Aaarandom]

@@mikki_desu9699 I wash 2-3 times a week

[@djhernandez85]

Stop using oil, you are drying out your hair

[@Dressmealltheway]

You sound like me, I have low porosity hair so it doesn't take in moisture quickly and the ends feel dry and become lifeless. This routine did help! Try a deep conditioning mask or leave your conditioner on longer in the shower

[@kfc1501]

What if the middle and top of my hair refuses to hold curls and is just wavy/straight but the bottom of my hair will hold curls and ringlets? I have never used heat on my hair except for diffusing it (which is not often at all), what can I do to fix this and make it curly throughout? (also i have no layers)

[@aalliaandreadis5109]

Cut layers all throughout and it ll happen naturally

[@samleg]

how do you touch up your hair in between wash days? like do you ever condition only? pls help thank youu

[@sarahssuperspa]

I dont really touch up other than separating the clumps! I just tailor my hairstyles to what will work with my hair’s state until it has to be slicked back haristyle - then wash it that day

[@bunnie2122]

yayy

[@lbn1909]

Which hairdryer do you use? Can you please recommend one for curly hair? Or anyone else in the comment section? Thanks!

[@sarahssuperspa]

This one is babylis and it gets the job done but idk if I’d repurchase- If I could get any in the world, it would be Dyson but I really love the treseme one though!

As someone with curly hair who was raised in a family of ppl who only had straight hair, thank you! I wish I had known some of these things as a younger person. It would've helped my confidence so much!

[@stayingdeluluisthesolulu-kp9gz]

Heyyy 💫💫 can I use this routine on my thin 2c/3a short hair?

[@Dressmealltheway]

Do you wash your hair before or after body? I always do hair first because product on my body causes acne. I guess I could shampoo/condition first, body, then styling product?

[@sarahssuperspa]

Hair before! Same reason ❤️ the products are for your hair not your body

[@Dressmealltheway]

​@@sarahssuperspathanks! Just tried it last night and it wasn't too hard. Question, my curls are voluminous but have a lot of spots where the curl reverses or flattens out, did you have this too and does it go away at all? With the denman brush they go into perfect ringlets but this way they are a little chaotic, curlier but also funkier

[@liedie268]

How do you refresh your hair duing the week?

[@djhernandez85]

How often do you cut your hair

[@sarahssuperspa]

Around every 2 months myself :)

[@divyasasidharan2960]

I wish i had asian hair like chineses korean so my life wouldnt b wasted on "managing" my hair. Its so much work just to dry too. I wanna wash my hair everyday n just walk out free. Nothing else to do. I once did permanent hair starightening n life was so easy for a couple of months, i wash whenever houwever n thats it. Now i wanna shave ny head off every time i think about washing my hair 😭 i have sooo many times chopped all my hair off out of frustration. This summer ill do it again so can go to beach more often

[@sg-cg6lr]

Let's just be honest, most curly hair products are a disappointment

[@sarahssuperspa]

!! I was so frustrated before 🥲

[@xoxorosequartz]

shampoos marketed towards curls give me so much dandruff and a lot of scalp sores istg

[@maitreyafischer4304]

I liked it a lot, but one of the things I don't understand is why you say that oils are bad for curly hair, on the contrary, like argan oil, shea oil, coconut oil, among others, which are even found in creams for curls only. and they nourish your hair, like the Skala brand for example. The other thing is that instead of heating it in your hands, you have to do it directly from the head, that way when the foam comes out it is cleaning your scalp.

[@maitreyafischer4304]

[@justme8841]

I wish washing twice a week would be something i could do, i have oily hair 😂

[@pikachu7572]

OK but you have fine hair and you should have never been using heavy oils and butters except on your ends The trouble with stylists is they're about styling and cutting not maintaining length
