I really don’t get the 391 dislikes this lady is gorgeous and has Stunning curls 🥰
Thanks. I think the dislikes are because people judge the video before they watch more than a couple of minutes. My videos are not designed for the light minded or to be skimmed. They take thought, analysis, and discussion. Ha.
I think that's precisely why people have disliked the video.
Hint: jealousy.
I wish I could like it twice to counter act the negativity
I think probably a complete hair wash might be easier. That might be reason for the dislikes but she has the best curls I have watched so far in TH-cam
I don't like pointless negativity either. But to play devil's advocate, the dislikes are probably due to the fact that the process is kind of pointless. Why refresh if you have to go to almost the same work as to jump in the shower and cowash first? Err on cleanliness, I always say! She does mention that you should just get in the shower instead. And I agree with her!
And I also agree that she has stunning curls. Wow-curls even! I hope using her method will help my curls plump and clump also!
Thanks for all the great info in this video. I learned a lot about my curls! ♥
I was under the impression that 'refreshing' was just slightly dampening your hair. I'm realizing it really does come down to your hair porosity as well as your curl pattern. I should've listened to my hair that one day when I literally stuck my head under the faucet and my curls looked even BETTER than the 1st day. Other girls get away with such a low maintenance routine but the fact of the matter is that everyone's curls are so different. I know what to do from now on, thank you for this video!
This has been my realization too. Environment also seems to be a big reason for either a low maintenance routine or a high maintenance one. The humidity is so high where I live pretty much all year round so I've realized as much as I would love to do less to my hair its just not possible. My hair reacts to spraying a fine mist of water on dry hair as the same as it reacting to humidity. If I'm not thorough about applying water my hair will continue to reach out to the air to get more moisture. So for me a 'refresh' ends up being a cowash on 3rd day hair.
Very true. I'm learning the same thing! It's kind of fun!
To be fair, she's not really refreshing here, she's just showering without the shower :D haha. I've watched a lot of refresh videos, but none are as full on as this. Still, great video and her hair is beautiful!
CutiePie i think this is considered a wet refresh tho, as she doesn’t (co) wash & condition her :)
I was coming to comment the same😁 when I saw she had 2 spray bottles. Aint nobody got time for that.
Hardly anyone mentions stringy second or third day curls. Thank you for the video! I'll try adding more watering and helping the clumps come back. Your curls turned out beautiful!
i like my hair slightly 'stringy' - its more defined. I spray very lightly (compared to her) with water/conditioner/gel and i'm quite happy with it
@@caraziegel7652 TH-cam never told me about your message here. Thanks so much for commenting. Have you been to my website yet to see the products I used in my video? www.AthenaPadilla.com
Great tips. I am new to curly hair. I am 75 and just realized I have curly hair! LOL My daughter is teaching me some tips and these are a great addition to what I have been learning! Love love your hair! ♥
@River Benson I have been letting my hair grow and I am learning that I need to put it up in a ponytail at night. I take the ponytail out, shake it and spritz it and go. I put a little curl product in if I need to for the day. So I don't shampoo it every day. Good luck to you!
Renee Sullins Hi Renee, I am loving my hair. I have switched products a couple of times! I am finding I am really liking to Color Wow line of products! My hair is so soft! Find me on Facebook if you want to chat about it. You can find me at connie Norleen.
@@connienorleen I'm so intrigued by these statements from yourself and others saying you just realized you have curly hair! Could someone explain that because now I am wondering. My hair is very thin, flat, and straight on top and in front but thick and very wavy in the back and at the bottoms so always very hard to say what my hair type is!
@@aplainjaneproduction8285 Hi Laura, You sound just like me. I was so confused. Are you on FaceBook? If so friend me and we chat about how I discovered my curly hair and how I take care of it now! And I'll show you pictures. Just look for me by Connie Norleen.
Me too! I’m 65 and just realized I have curly hair. I even spent 10-15 years getting perms. I don’t care to spend all day on my hair so looking for a simpler routine. Getting a Devacut next week so maybe that will help.
I make a strong tea of lavender & sometimes other herbs, strain, then use to refresh my hair. Herbs smell great (aromatherapy) & are good for your hair. Chamomile (relaxing) for blondes. Rosemary (stimulating) for dark hair. Lavender (relaxing) for everyone. I mix 1/2 herbal tea & 1/2 pure aloe vera juice in a sprayer.
We Are Legion thank you so much for the advise!
great advice!
I have an Herbal Moisture Mist that I make on my website guys!! Comes check it out. www.NoFrizz10.com
Your hair color and curl pattern both give me serious curl envy! ☺️ Thank you for your videos-I enjoy them!
Yes! Anytime I refresh I end with with flat frizzy curls. I will definitely be trying this method of soaking my hair to refresh. Thanks so much, very informative video :)
wow, thats how my hair is! i never figured out a way how to handle it. will definitely try this out! your curls looked super cute.
Breathtaking result...
I just discovered you, and I love you. You are hilarious and so open, and genuine seem like happy person. Thank you for sharing tips. I'll try your routine I've watched today. I have fine hair so I'll use less product, and I started using flax seed gel I made.
I could relate to this. Stringy hair on refresh days and sometimes on wash days and I always thought that the hair needed more product. And more gel and leave-in ultimately made the hair heavy and the result was doubly stringy hair than usual. Thanks for clarifying this bit. Knowing that your hair is low porosity helps, I face the same problem. It really takes about 5+ minutes in the shower to get it all wet. Thank you for this video.
Wow, I never thought about the fact that my hair wasn’t completely soaked through. Stringy and clumping. Thanks!
Great tip! I never thought of this. If i don't soak to refresh I also get tons of frizz. My hair gets curlier every day i refresh. I add a little curl enhancer and gel every time too.
You look beautiful! Very useful tips:) I think your finger brushing method (with a head upside down) is exactly what i was missing :D thank you!
Wow. I am late af but have just discovered this video and I must say.....yours has been the MOST helpful when it comes to refreshing and I have watched ALOT of top curly hair influencers over the past three years. I love all of you but you legit gave me the answer to my refresh dilemma! Thank you !
Thank you so much. I hope you are able to watch my hair product and curly hair tip playlists too.
Thank you for this video! I always struggle with how to refresh! Your hair is gorgeous!
Try the flairisol water spray bottle, it keeps spraying with one small squeeze.
Girl I refresh exactly the same way! I use to put my head under the sink because it was less time consuming. I was told by a beautician, saturating my scalp everyday could cause hair loss. Your hair looks beautiful.
Thank you. I have found that the frequency needed for saturating one's scalp depends on personal need. My scalp is most healthy when I wash every third day but others do better on only once a week. Just do what is best for you.
My hair is similar to your- I loved this video - thanks!!!!
Wonderful pure curly beauty. Thank you for the inspiration
8:55 after clumps are created, then scrunch with a t-shirt once in each area to lock in curls!
I feel this way too....find that spraying and spraying and styling and diffusing takes almost as long as a wash day without the benefit of that feel food wash. I am with ya.
I totally loved your video and getting more curly hair education each day. Glad that you spoke about the importance of working with totally wet hair. Very true as my hair is thinning a bit and I get straggly ends at the bottom of my curls and my bangs tend to frizz. I will try tomorrow about directing everything one way because I have so many cowlicks on top.
Excellent and informative video.. Thanks so much...
I don't normally do refreshes because I don't like getting my roots wet due to dandruff issues. But wow! I learned a ton from this video even if I never do a refresh!
Thank you.
I agree. My refresh is always quite frizzy. I end up saturating the ends to get the clump. Or I just scrap the whole refresh and wear it in a cute bun 😉
Beautiful curls! Thanks for sharing the tips & tricks! I just turned curly after years of straight hair so I am learning to care for the curls. Keep the videos coming....we love them!
oh my goodness I wish I had seen this before I decided to "refresh" my hair! It's super stringy because the other videos told me to just dampen my hair.. Looks like I'll just re-wet it in the morning and hopefully save these curls
Athena I absolutely love your curls here. Thanks for sharing
Thanks a lot for sharing your technique, I'm having problems with my old one. Love your curls! I like to diy hair products too.
WOW your curls are amazing!!!
Beautiful curls! Will keep trying 😌
Hello Athena, I'm German and use a translator. Thank you for your great and informative videos. You feel that you love your curls and you give yourself endless trouble with your explanations, show everything in great detail and in peace. Thank you thank you!
Aww, that is very sweet of you. Thank you for watching and I'm glad that you appreciate.
Danke für Ihre Wertschätzung
Your hair looked so elegant pulled back like that! Very nice
Your curls are insanely gorgeous!!!
My hair texture is just like yours, I'm glad I found you 😍😍😍
Thank you for this video. I thought I was the only one that didn't get the results I wanted from refreshing, I always end up wetting my hair in the shower. My hair used to be so beautifully curly, it's been so hard to find a good routine that works, now thanks to your video I think its probably because I stopped raking! All other people say not to rake, but now looking back I remember raking! Will try doing this again, thank you!
Thank you for this video. I never put 2 and 2 together with the amount of water I've been using during a full refresh!
I feel like a lot of these tips can be used on wash day too. Thank you! I never realized I was finger combing (raking?) wrong. Slowing figuring out the best methods for my curls
Thank you so much! This is why I used to wash my hair every day and be sooo dry, now I'll have better hair thanks to you. Have a nice day!
the before and after is impressive
This is very helpful! I am new to the Curly Girl method and starting to think I must be doing something wrong because I get tons of frizz and strings when I try to refresh.
It's normal for a quick refresh to end up having a less defined result then one where we take more time. Just remember that the way we wear our hair is our choice, meaning, Curly Hair can have consistency and deliberate styles through practice, knowledge, and ability. Continue to learn how to manipulate your hair then as long as you get what you expect that's where we want to be!
Athena Padilla That is so true, Athena. I just didn’t realize that this curly journey would be as complex as it has been so far.
Wow! Incredible curls
OMG! Thank you so much for that trick towards the end! My hair ALWAYS wants to fall forward in the front. Definitely gonna try that trick to get the curls to fall backwards! Hope my hair doesn’t snap 🤞🏼It breaks so easily 😭
"But cha know what, that's what happens sometimes" Lol, exactly how I feel everytime I do my hair in the morning.
she would lose her products she put in down the drain out if she wets the hair her hair would be wet and doesn’t have to add more products
What a great video! Thank you for showing us that it’s not always easy to refresh. I’ve not been successful as yet, but after watching this tutorial I think I will try it. Thank you so much!! ☺️
Stunning curls, wow!
Beautiful hair! Nice. I wondered why my curls looked so stringy with my refresh. Thanks.
Your curls are beautiful! I wish my fine hair was double the volume. Yours is so so thick!
Your hair is so beautiful!’
Wow those curls look AMAZING!
Oh wow!!! Your hair looks amazing!!! I love how curly your hair got! I am having trouble w my curls. They do not curl as they use to. I will use your technique on my next refresh day. Thank you so much for making this video!
Oh my gosh your curls are GORGEOUS!
Wow! Brilliant and informative video Athena. Thank you 😊
I done this before with my curls. But now the I watch this video I'm going to do it as the way she does. Thank you for the video.
Excellent demo! My hair is quite different from yours, but I find spraying mine for a refresh just causes it to frizz. I really have to be wet to the scalp so I've always just wet it under the showerhead. The downside to that is that you lose alot of product under the showerhead and must reapply like it was wash day.
Ya. The trick is to learn how to deal with average hair. Ha. Either that or spend lots of extra time on it more often then we'd prefer. Lol.
TH-camr Hair Romance has lots of different ways to refresh and go days without having to wash. She has curly hair too. I've followed her for years.
Now I'll add Athena to my list!
New favorite product..."WOW Dreamcoat" for curly hair. No more multiple products, just this! Amazing!
I love WOW products! They have a nice variety of paraben, sulfate, and silicone-free shampoos. Nice to see someone else has had a good experience with their products :)
This video saved me from quitting on my curly hair and going back to brushed hair.
Thankyou so much .
All that water actually help a lot I have fine long curly hair almost like yours.
Thankyou so much
I'm so glad. I'm here for ya! Let me know if you have any other needs.
You looked so truly happy when you saw the end results aww! Great video!
Wow beautiful curls, I am not using enough water thank you!❤️
Beautiful result!! All the women telling me how they wished they had my curls have no idea how much work (and struggle) that is...😄
Your hair looks gorgeous - thanks for a fabulous tutorial!
Great video as usual! Very informative!
Omgggg, this Is exactly what i needed to see!!! So glad i found it
Your hair is MAGNIFICENT!
My hair are exactly like you. The length the texture everything.
Thank you so much for the tips! Gonna try it tomorrow 😊
only way im able to “refresh” my hair is getting it wet in the shower and conditioning it almost everyday. i shampoo every 3-4 days but i condition it every day or every other day and reapply my products every time i do that
Awesome video! Amazing curls
This was a helpful video! I've started refreshing in a similar way with water and a tad bit of product but I had never learned to flip my head and rake, or to flip and diffuse upside down. I will try this!
Exactly what my hair looks like when I need to refresh. It looks fluffy and wavy...
you did a wonderful job here! love your results =)
Your so pretty! Thank you so much for the tips!
Wow, your hair is gorgeous!
Oh my, I have just seen your video and tried it......I have curls and no frize.........ITS AMAZING. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for teaching us! I'm new at this, maybe a week in. I try something a little different every day to experiment. My hair is more wavy but getting curly on the bottom, still straighter on top. I've blow dried and flat ironed for years and I think the conditioners are helping the health of my hair. I also stopped coloring my grays about 14 months so I'm grombrey with 4 different colors in my hair!
Check out my Ribboning technique next, for added curl at the top.

Do you still wear your hair natural?
@@lauranagel8634 Of course. Come to website to see more. www.NoFrizz10.com
Wooooooow I have so much hair envy
Thanks for the video. I have the same problem with my hair. Now I have a couple of ideas
I'm so glad this showed up in my recommendations! I could never get my hair to look nice with just a spray bottle. The water seemed to just run right off my hair and it would still be mostly dry. I'd always give up and just jump into the shower lol.
why not directly wet it in the shower
Same last name lol and I'm on my healthy hair journey with 3a 3b hair.
What lovely, magic hair! Hoping to get mine to be happy and manageable like that too
Beautiful curls! Thanks.
My private Facebook group "NoFrizz10 GROUP" is full.
I can still help! Please come to my public Facebook Page called, "Soft Springy Defined Natural Curls".
facebook.com/nofrizz10/
Also, my recipes are private. I'm sorry, but I intend to sell them in the future.
I think you're the first person I see that has similar hair to mine, in terms of curl pattern and thickness! Not sure what what my porosity is, but I think it is low. Even the "before" look is so similar to mine! Never had my curls looks as good as the "after" though and now I can't wait to try your technique.
So refreshing to relate :) Subscribed!
your hair is absolutely gorgeous!
Is fantastic to hear a curly person say they really don't like to do a refresh. And also follow up by saying that she brushes it out instead. 👍👍👍👍
we also would like to know the ingredients you use for your conditioner product... How do you make it your hair is beautiful and so are you thank you for your demonstration
Come to my Facebook pages or private group to learn more.
I found this video reaffirming! My hair is thicker and has tighter curl and CANNOT be refreshed. I'm NEVER happy with the results. Rather than stingy curls, I end up with a frizzy mess. I have to rewet my hair in the shower and reapply products. I might try applying a little less product after seeing this video. I'll let you know the results. Many thanks!
howd it go?
@@recklessmermaid
Thanks for asking. I still need the same amount of product. I'm sure it's the nature of my hair ( 3A/3B, course, dense, thick). No cost savings here.😉
darn. If you're still experimenting, many people say that wetting their hair with a spray bottle causes the frizz, so they wet their hands, mix in a dollop of leave in, then apply down their lengths with praying hands. Then repeat but with water and gel. Lots of people swear by this technique.
For me, it stretched out my curl too much and then when i scrunched it got all tangled and i was left with a flat, stringy, tangles mess. So I'm back to the spray bottle.
But I'm in the minority from all the people I've talked to. You hair is curlier so you probably won't lose as much curl as i do.
I'm always experimenting. 😊 Thanks for your suggestion and detailed description. I know this wouldn't work for me. My hair is just too thick and dense. I watched a really long video with Lorraine Massey this morning in which she described "spot refreshing" (my term). That is only spraying the section(s) that need with water and adding the right amount of conditioner for you. (In my case, probably a lot.) I will try reapplying gel too. I'll add the link to the video my next message.

This is the first video of yours that I see, and I have to say that your curls are one of the most beautiful curls I'v ever seen!! just amazing you are definitly blessed!
The result is absolutely amazing 😍
Thank you! I've been dealing with second-day hair that is both stringy and frizzy at the same time. I also have difficulty with the ends getting tangled and dull-looking. I guess I just need to really wet and detangle my hair every day.
hwales1 if it’s just your ends are getting tangled it might be time for a trim. When was your last trim? Trims also encourage curling at the ends
Gabi Marie Just had one less than a month ago. My hair is quite fine and has always tangled easily. Just looking at it will tangle the ends.
Try the Anti-frizz Liquid I make at www.NoFrizz10.com. It is a light weight detangler for daily use and natural.
Thank you for this video. I'm new to the curly girl method, although I dampen my hair on refresh days I don't get it fully dripping wet, so I'll try this to see if it works for me :)
Wow thank you , watching you style your hair (soaking wet) and explaining as been wonderful. More informative than a lot of videos I have watched. Or I’m just finally getting it. Thanks bunches 💜💜💜💜
Omg your curls are dreamy!!!! 😍
Do you have video on your conditioner and homemade gel
I asked the same thing.
Yes, I'd like to know your recipe for them. I just started the curly girl method yesterday. I have trouble putting too much product in my hair as it weighs it down easily. But if I don't get enough in it then it gets frizzy in the back. I'm letting it go natural and haven't colored or heat styled it in over a year. I'm getting it trimmed off soon and that should help the process. Thanks for the video!
258house hey girls ❤️ She pinned a comment to the top of thread with the link to her Facebook page. Her recipes are on there 👩🏻🦱
@@roachcoachn9077 thank you. My recipes are also posted here in my community tab.
My conditioner and flaxseed cream gel is now a private recipe. Many recipes are still available though or can be purchased at www.AthenaPadilla.com
Got it, water & more Water! I do not like the ramen noodles look on me. I prefer the clumps! Your refreshed curls are gorgeous. My hair is not long like yours, but I can still try to get my small curls popping, like yours.
Thank you!! My 2nd day 3b curls look even better than day 1!
Tgis looks really good! Thank you! I will try this in the morning. 💗🙋😁
Thank you So Much for this video! I'm about a month into the CG method and I didn't even realize it was possible to not have stringy refresh hair, I just that's what you got! I'm so excited to try your tricks. You have such nice detailed advice and I like your commentary the whole time too haha.
You're very welcome. Thank you.
I think one of the most important parts was the technique of raking you used. I'm new to the CG method and I REALLY appreciate the in depth technique explanations. I thought raking was bad but not raking might be part of my frizz issue
raking helped me some, but a denman brush its what really helps that issue. Raking on steroids.
Alison Stephens I thought raking was actually making my hair break since it’s so vulnerable when it’s wet. I was losing so much hair all the time constantly trying to detangle and remove knots from damaged hair while conditioning it. I use a wide tooth comb now upside down which surprisingly is easier to detangle (plus better moisturizing products) . I think removing the terrycloth towel - plus the right conditioning products/style products for my hair type and texture is what helped me tame frizz more than anything.
I think it’s technique, technique, technique
