@Peldyn 3 года назад

Truth. 30 mph wind ruined my hair today

@lilypianoforte 3 года назад

Another bonus tip: accept the looseness of your waves 🥺 I'm pretty sure I have 2A waves and when I did everything right, I could get it to look 2B for a day before it loosened back to 2A. I went from trying to accept that my hair wasn't straight to now trying to accept that my hair is not curly or even very wavy. Good luck to anyone else who feels the same 🥲

@tracyvision 3 года назад

Same! But over my last 19 months of learning how to deal with my natural texture I’ve learned to love my barely there 2A waves. So much so I rarely jump through the many hoops to get it wavier. These days I prefer just some leave in and air drying that I brush through once completely dry - that gives me very soft hair with a subtle bend, and that’s ok by me.

@CrazyPlantLady911 3 года назад

@nikkirun9157 3 года назад

Honestly, I would also be ok with whatever curl type I end up with if it were at least somewhat consistent: After washing I have everything from completely straight to 3b. The second day I very much need a refresh (using the same lightweight products from my wash day style) and end up with straight and frizzy 2c - nothing in between except for curly front pieces... It never looks cohesive and more like I didn't bother with my hair at all and just came straight out of bed. Pair that with a washing and drying time of multiple hours even after a slight wet down for refresh and I am close to quitting after a year... Like I said: I can handle whatever curl type if it wouldn't look drastically different not only on one day on my head but differently over several days as well :/ I am getting so tired of investing so much effort and the reward is so inconsistent and sometimes downright awful 😩 Sorry for the rant 😅

@apothekarya 3 года назад

I had the same over-moisturized problem, Courtney, and air-drying didn't work for me either. However, once I started squeezing out more water instead of applying products soaking wet, my hair held waves better, AND I could get away with not diffusing (too much work in my book) since I didn't have so much moisture to dry out. Hope that made sense!

@michRobalino 3 года назад

Interesting, it's like this for me too. Waves stay longer when I apply products to damp hair rather than soaking wet

Phenomenally helpful video! I allllllmost disagreed with the protein moisture balance point until you elaborated. At the beginning, moisture moisture moisture and then start slowly with protein. 3 years into ACTUALLY paying attention to my hair health (I've always worn it curly), nailing the balance is crucial for my wash day longevity. But that's after I've already nailed ALL the other stuff you've mentioned. If I could give this video 10 thumbs up, I would.

courtney! I have definitely experienced several of these lately. thank you so much for making this video. I think I've resolved several of them thanks to you. I still do have mid-shaft to end dampness even after diffusing. maybe my diffuser? I have a really good dryer and I'm using the one that came with. considering getting the one you recommend. I have discovered that if I pineapple my hair that used to be too short to do it it comes out wavy on the second day but has more volume on top so I don't mind the waves. thanks again! and oh by the way I've been doing Curly girl for several years but the techniques you have taught me with applying stylers and recommendations for products have been a game changer. my hair is healthier shinier and softer. thank you so much!

I really do think a lot of my issue is protein/moisture balance.

@Nubesyxochis 2 месяца назад

When they say 2b hair is relatively straight at the roots, they're not kidding! My 2a-2c hair is above the jawline right now and apart from the 2c-locks framing my face (where my hair is longest), my curl pattern is much straighter than normal (1c-2a). Happily, I did start the wavy-girl method before I cut it so I know it can curl but not at this length, apparently. So I'm just going to enjoy the light waves and lo-a-ds of volume this length entails. It's interesting seeing my short hair start to go wavier as it grows and the longer front pieces will often have a tighter s-pattern or ringlets.

this is totally my hair right now! I'm 2 and half months into curly girl and I have a very loose wave that I just sort of discovered, plus I lost half of my hair after having a baby so I have less hair than normal and I have no clue what it's doing half the time. I think I watched 90% of your videos by now trying to figure out what to do lol I find that I can get my hair to look kinda cute while in the cast and then I scrunch it out and... it just loosens up so much! I don't really get it... while I do bleach my hair (also use olaplex regularly) I never straightened my hair and I haven't been heat styling it (yes, I used to curl my hair with curling iron ALL THE TIME, because CURL GOALS) for at least a year now (prior to even starting curly girl). I already used gentler shampoos... one thing that I don't get is how you can use a strong hold gel and not weigh down your curls? I'm trying to use smaller amounts because I have short hair but i can never get it evenly distributed and I have some pieces that are in cast and some that are just flying away (and I do try to use a lot of water!) this is such a learning process...

I ALWAYS scrunch out the crunch too soon. 😩 I probably diffuse to 70% dry but that last 30% takes FOREVER to dry! Like 4 hours! Maybe I just need to be okay with going out crunchy. I love the hard hold of Harry’s gel but next wash day I’m going to try a gel that doesn’t have as hard of a cast and see how that works-no scrunching on day 1!

@deorrbit 3 года назад

Okay. Staci - let’s talk cpap. I tried a mask that only has ear loops. Worked great for my hair but made my ears hurt. I’ve tried silk scarf and satin bonnet. CPAP on floor. I’ve had the best success with a “buff” with my hair pretty forward. My CPAP mask has a strap on the crown of my head and one down lower toward my neck. I just have to be careful but to stretch out the lower layers of curls. When my hair is long enough, I’m sure I will pineapple under the “buff”.

@denisem8570 3 года назад

Courtney, after 4 1/2 years of embracing my curls, I was ready to give up, as my curls seemed to disappear this winter. Then I saw your recent video where you used non-alcohol hair spray. Though I only had regular hair spray on hand, I tried it and WOW--bigger clumps, more spirals in my 2B-3A hair, and 3-4 days of great curls with just a spritz of water in the mornings and a quick scrunch. Most of my life, hair spray has been an absolute necessity to control my unruly hair. Although I've not used it in my curly hair journey, maybe I need to accept that it is a necessity in my life! It's allowed much less manipulation to my hair every day.

@@cherylgratton7940 Cheryl, I don't know how you feel about denatured alcohol, but my best results were with Aussie's non-aerosol spritz. The first time I used hairspray again, I use the Aussie spritz after I dried and styled my hair. I sleep with a satin cap and my curls only need the bit of water and quick scrunch I mentioned above. Before, my curls were pretty nonexistent when I removed my cap, but this method had my curls looking good even when my scalp was screaming at me for a shampoo on Day 5. I've had great results from the Aussie products I've tried, and this was my best result so far. Another day, I sprayed my WET hair with Tresemme hairspray after applying my styler and gel and before diffusing. These results were good, too, but the curl hold and frizz control were not quite as good. I don't know what the long-term use of hairspray might do, but I only use it once on wash day and it's kept me from chopping off my shoulder-length hair back into a pixie! Hope this helps!

@cloudy192 3 года назад

Third reason... That's me 😭😭 complete neglect of my hair. Literally 10 years of hair dye/bleach/flat ironing without protecting it or adding any products to help my hair whatsoever. Before the neglect, I had SUPER long wavy hair, almost to my knees. Curly hair is a dominant trait on both sides of my family but I never paid attention to what I had because firstly, it was too long and then I focused too much on coloring and making my hair as straight as possible. I recently accidently found a pattern when I rinsed my hair with rice water for a month and noticed my hair begin to bend and wave out. This is my third week in giving my hair the love and care it desperately needs. Right now I have a loose 2b pattern, it's wavier than 2a but only on the top half of my hair 😅😅 the rest is definitely heat damaged

@VengefulAngeI 3 года назад

Another reason could be buildup! Products that normally work and last for days either stop working and you can tell right away, but sometimes it seems like it's working until the hold doesn't last and everything falls and gets frizzy

I can’t stand my hair touching my face, either. I love ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ headbands! Of all different styles! And, I too, love quick and easy. That’s why I’d rather air dry than diffuse. After styling I plop with a t-shirt. When I take the plop down I slide on a headband and go! 😂Thanks for sharing! Love your videos!

Do you only use silk or satin headbands? Thanks!

I just crunched out the crunch, and my hair was still damp !! The frizz was bad. And The waves a mess. But im a beginner and dont follow everything. But i dont use silicones, sulfates, drying alcohols, and no paraben and waxes. I just gave up recently. But im on it again. Just want a healthy hair.

I can't get my hair to last to day 2. Not because of the curls dropping, but I can't really protect my hair at night. I tried a silk turban and a silk scarf, but I get hot easily during the night and my scalp couldn't really breath, so it would be really oily the next day. Just doing a pineapple and using a silk pillow case doesn't really work since my hair is not long enough and gets frizzy, so that is not as oily, but very frizzy :/ I am trying to accept that I can only wear my hair open on day 1 but oh how I wish I could get to day 2 :)

Can you do a video diffusing with the Dyson diffuser attachment? I heard that a shallower bowl should be good for wavy hair because it encourages it to curl more. I'm interested to see how the results compare to your larger bowl diffuser attachment.

I can understand why someone with longer more density hair may not love the dyson diffuser. For me, the dyson diffuser works fine as I have fine thin density. And my hair is shoulder length.

Did you ever make the diffusing video? I could use some tips...just started the method 10 days ago. My hair takes FOREVER to dry!! It’s fine but there’s a lot of it!

This is the perfect video for me right now! I'm in month four of "CGM" and my hair is wack. I think it tries to curl but it does't know how.

Actually asked someone on Instagram to help me out with protecting my hair while sleeping and I bought a silk pillowcase and silk scrunchies (like those scrunchies with the invisibobble kinda ties inside) and I'm just excited to receive it quickly! Also, totally forgot how much I loved your personality and videos! Definitely will have to watch you more again!

My hair hates wash day, I have very little curl/ wave on wash day. I wet it in-between washing it and the longer I go without washing my hair the more curly and wavy it will be. I wash my hair once every 6 /7 days . Idk why but wash day is always a bad hair day for me . The dirtier my hair the better it curls, it's super thick and frizzy also but it get let's frizzy everyday after washing it .

Every time I pixie diffuse, my curl pattern is getting messed up. It gets these weird kinks and bends.... WHYYY??!!!

@katiekate3476 3 года назад

Yes please update diffusing video. I just started CGM and one side of my hair is very curly and the other side just kinda drops, help! And a little frizzy.
