I love that the curly hair movement has embraced so many different people, regardless of gender/race/ethnicity - it's so amazing ❤️ I myself have wavy hair and am currently transitioning. Love you ladies and your positive vibes!!
We laughed so much during these collabs! I am SO happy we got to. meet in person and work together for the betterment of the curly community! Can't wait til our next meet up!!
I enjoyed watching this video so much, because it didn’t only talk about curly hair transitioning instead it emphasized self-love. I believe that’s extremely important in society nowadays. I love how curls can bring people together and create friendships ❤️
My curly hair journey was inspired by my daughter as well. She is a beautiful 26 yr old curly hair girl and I've always told her how much I love her lion king "simba" hair. Since last year she was calling me out on my hair trying to convince me to love my curls again. I kept coming up with excuses as to why I couldn't...the main one was "it'll never look like yours!" I finally gave in and decided to go curly once I accompanied her to get a trim at the curlology studio. I did go as far as to do the big chop and that was so hard. I am a cancer survivor and I've had an emotional attachment to my hair since it grew back. I can proudly say its been 4 months since I started my journey and I'm loving my curly hair (again) and its all thanks to my daughter...and your videos as well...thank you for taking the time to share :-)
rican link That is so beautiful! What an inspiring story, overcoming cancer and learning to love your natural curls. I’m sure your daughter is so proud of you, and I hope you feel proud of yourself too! 💕
You girls are great . When Jackie talked about a child believing their hair was “a problem’ , that’s how I felt about my hair since I was little. Curly hair was thought to be messy, unkept, ugly. I now embrace my curls and get compliments all the time 😮. Transition was difficult but now I AM ME ! 😃 😃
I am an anglo but I have always hated my curly frizzy hair. My Mom was wonderful but had no ideal how to deal with my curly hair. My dad would always say "Can you do something with that girls hair?" Now I am older and you rarely see older women with curly hair. So proud of you girls!
Yessss!!! Literally my Puerto Rican & black/white daughters were my motivation to transition! I’m here taking care of their hair and I’ve done cgm on them since birth and I was here neglecting my hair. 3 months now cgm and going strong!! 🙌🏼❤️🌀
I am so happy to have found you guys ❤️ I’m European (so white) but my hair is a curly and frizzy and sometimes it’s hard to see the other white girls at school looking all pretty with their straight hair and whenever I straighten it is usually when I get compliments on my hair. Though, with videos like this I’ve become a lot more confident in my natural curly hair and I’m embracing being different :) so thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Fresca Kanari Aw I’m so glad to hear that! When I was in school, I only got compliments on my straight hair too, never on my curls. But once you find a curly routine you love that works for you, it won’t matter much what others think about it cuz you’ll have that confidence. 💕
Jackie, empowering your children through example is SO amazing and beautiful!! Mad praise to you! And Kelly, when I saw you in my Ulta mailer, I felt like a friend was the model! You two ladies are beautiful inside and out!!! Blessings to you both.
Love Jackie's story cause it is similar to mine, I needed to love my hair cause my daughter has gorgeous curly hair and I wanted hair to feel confident in her own hair. My teenage years I grew up with Teen magazine which always have advice to straight hair girls, and all the articles and hair advices I got wasn't helping me cause I had curly hair. They talk about frizz and ai thought defrizzing my hair was the answer to my situation, turns out it was not. I want to share good Mom advice with my girls and I am so grateful that I have you girls out there to back me up with your stories and journeys! Thank you for all your videos
I love this!!I just started my curly hair journey like 3 weeks ago and it's hard there's days my hair looks alright and other day I'm like ahhhhh..but all these tips and words of advice help me look forward to what is to come from all the work and care I'm giving my hair.
OMG...it so sooooo refreshing to hear the struggles you guys went through during the transition phase of your hair journey because I can totally relate. I had moments where I almost gave up too and it definitely requires alot of patience and commitment. I am 8 months into my journey and I am thankful for all that you ladies share. It has been very helpful and encouraging.🤗💖
I love the curly movement so much!! As someone with a Scottish heritage and texture I feel so embraced by this movement!! Thank you so much for being an inspiration for all of us to love our curls!!! I used to fight my texture so much and I am finally learning to really embrace it!
Thank you both so much for being such an inspiration!! I'm seventeen and starting to transition after years of not even *knowing* that I had curly hair. I brushed it daily and thought that that was my natural! All my time of sadness and straightening are behind me now and I'm ready to put in the work to love my hair and myself just like you guys
The same exact reason that jackie had,is why i decided to transition my hair. My daughter stood there telling me she liked me hair straight, and i told her "no you love your hair curly" while im standing there doing that. I felt so hypocritical. And now almost a year later my curls are changing and ive learned to embrace & love my curls.
This video was the Best!!! This is pretty much the message behind LUS brands. It is great to have this self love and acceptance. I can actually remember my second son wanting to have hair like Corbin Bleu from High school musical, when he was 5! I couldn’t figure out where he had seen such a musical since I hadn’t taken him to any besides the nutcracker! Lol I finally realized it was a Disney movie! So my kid wanted curly textured hair when his hair was straight. Which is kind of the same for a lot of people. You want what you don’t have? I think what Jackie was saying is highly important to instill in kids. Every parent has to teach self love and acceptance to their children. I saw a parent just the other day ripping through her kids hair in a parking lot. Like she was purposely being mean and trying to be as rough as she could. The girl hadn’t been resistant at first, but it seemed her mother was intent on making her cry! Meanwhile her mother’s hair was covered in a scarf and barely looked like she just rolled out of bed with the way she was dressed. I felt so bad for the girl. I wanted to say something to the mom, but I know it would not have been received at all. Keep preaching this too our kids and any other curly people out there. Sometimes I wanna reach out and tell people to embrace their curls and stop damaging their hair. But then I think they will think... who the heck is this chic? I didn’t ask what you thought did I? 😂 I LOVE this content!!! Thank you ladies
I can relate so much. I also felt ugly as a kid, teen and upto my 20s with my natural curly hair. But today, thanks to you tubers like you, I feel extra pretty as my natural self.
I started the curly girl journey on Christmas haven't flat ironed my hair since omg I'm loving it! Also just got 8 inches cut off it was very damaged I have my curls back! And plan on keeping them healthy 😍
I love your comment at 3:28. When I was starting my career in the eighties/nineties, I thought the same thing. Straight hair was professional. My Irish mom didn’t know how to deal with my biracial hair so I got twice a year hair straighteners from 6! I wish I knew how to deal with my hair sooner. I was in my thirties almost 40 before I embraced my curls and had my last perm. I feel bad it took that long. When I first wore my hair curly to work, it didn’t go unnoticed. Had a balding coworker ask if I stuck my finger in a light socket! Thankfully only one negative. And husband always prefers my hair curly.
I loved your collab with Jackie, both videos really spoke to me as a Puerto Rican naturally curly redhead. I always struggled with my hair growing up and even though my mom never put me down about it, she had straighter hair so she didn't know how to help. With all the knowledge I have now and going to get more of, I look forward to the future and possibly teaching my future curly headed children when the time comes!!
Thank you so much ladies for post this! It's so inspiring! I've been getting so frustrated with my transitioning hair and it helps so much to hear this. I literally teared up watching it, you touched me so much. You're definitely right in point with all of this. I was told growing up that I looked better with short hair (or boy hair as I saw it) because my mom didn't want to deal with my curly frizzy mess. But now that I've accepted it, I feel so much more confident overall. Not just my appearance. You ladies and beautiful inside and out.
I hear you about being a role model for our kids. I have four kids each with different texture and type of hair. My second daughter in particular has the curliest in our Japanese family. Her hair is lush, gorgeous, thick 3c curly hair.....but she’s always been self conscience because it’s very uncommon for Japanese to have such big thick curls. I’m half Japanese but I got my 3a curls from my Irish dad. I used to wear my hair in a short straight bob, straightening it, but since getting a serious sickness it’s easier to just be curly and accept my hair as it is. I hope my daughter will embrace her curls. Both my girls were in social circles where blonde, blue eyes and straight hair is the norm...even my oldest daughter with super thick 2b hair is accepting her hair. My boys have such different hair. One is thick wavy and super course, the other fine and super straight. My husband is bald. We’re all different and beautiful. Thanks for the message!
Love the both of you!! Need to meet you all soon! Both beautiful ladies with lovely curls 😍💙 And Kelly I need to know what routine you did bc girl😍😍that definition it ON POINT !!
That is the reason I started my curly hair journey! My daughter has beautiful curls and I want her to love them as much as I do so, I had to love mine first!! Great job ladies!!
Ahh! two of my favorite curlies together 💕 love you both! So inspirational! I’ve never loved my hair and myself more than I do now embracing my natural texture 🙌🏻👏🏻 great video guys 💋
I'm in eighth grade and there is this one boy who always tells me to straighten my hair because I look weird and crazy (I'm not transitioning because i never really have done anything to ruin it) also I am Mexican and Syrian and have loose ringlets like you
this video helped me soo much i have curly hair and im transitioning rn being an afro latina buh pale olive skin its very confusing buh im excepting myself more and gaining a lot more confidence ayoooo💘💃🏽
I started my journey around a year and a half ago and I love my 3a hair now (it looks a lot like the girl on the left but thinner). My sister has 2b-2c hair and she straightens it every day because it’s frizzy and thick and she doesn’t know how to take care of it so I’m gonna teach her and give her tips so she starts embracing her natural hair :)
This is exactly why I’m transitioning. Because I want my daughter to love herself and her curls. And all the women in my life with curls straightened theirs.
so cute to hear about why you both embrace your curly hair! both my parents have straight hair and they kinda make fun of me embracing my natural hair as well as using sulphate and silicone free shampoos, conditioners and stylers. They make fun of me to other people thinking what i do to my hair is funny e.g doing braid outs or doing a pre-poo treatment. I keep telling them that they will never get it because they don’t have curly hair. Any advice?
I’m not a woman of color, and I’m not trying to claim the struggle of my curly sisters who are, however , my sister has blonde straight hair and my other sister has brown straight hair and both my parents have wavy hair. I had dark brown curls. I had nobody to teach me to love my curls. I always felt like the outsider. 24 years and I’m still trying to learn to love my curls. I’m gonna start that curly hair journey now cause I’m tired of trying to change the hair I was born with.
Yes, growing up was not fun. I had puffy, frizzy hair. My mother didn't believe putting gel or moose on your hair. Kids at school would make fun of my hair or even made a song about my hair, having roaches and all types of bugs. So sad, I permed my hair because I wanted straight hair. Now, I'm making a change, I know I will feel insecure but I'm going to my roots. Curly hair, here I come.
I just found your channel about 2 hours ago, and I’m about to try some of your techniques for curly hair and I’m so excited!!!!! Also, any suggestions about maintenance for curly haired girls who exercise a lot? My hair gets flat when I run because of the ponytail I wear.
Yayy welcome to my channel! 😊 Try not to make a tight ponytail when you exercise. I do a loose bun or pineapple. Then I refresh the next day (I have a few videos on how I refresh my hair.)
Joy Before Her thanks so much for the advice!!!!! I already tried your tutorial on finger-coiling hair and it has already changed my life🙌🙌🙌 you’re a friggin’ superhero!!!
Soph H I working too because I’m in the military and I usually use silk scrunches and do what Kelly said about making sure it’s loose. Because we all know that dent in your hair when you are wearing a tight style... always causing for a refresh or wash day all over.
My daughter has very straight hair. Everyone else in the family has curly hair. She has begged since she was small to have her hair permed. She doesn't like her straight hair.
My daughter is the same. Also the only one in the family with dead straight hair. She's been asking for curls since she was 4. She's 11 now. She would take my iron and miracurl to curl her hair when I wasn't at home and her hair was damaged from the heat so I I took her for the perm so she would stop curling it herself. She had curls for a day. Her hair was so straight the perm didn't take. Funny thing is I know how she feels. I was the only curly haired person in my family growing and my school.
Is there still a transition phase if you never dyed or straightened it but just didnt take care of it and are now going through the curly hair journey? Or is what you have now the best of it ?
there definitely is! i never straightened my hair, never dyed it and rarely used an airblower, but my hair still didn't look presentable. now i'm almost a year into curly girl method and i feel so confident now, my hair is so much healthier and curlier because it finally gets the moisture it had always needed.
I feel like I have three different types of hair. On the top they are like 3A-2C, but under this layer they are a little bit wavy. It makes me mad, because I do not have like a lot of thick hair.
I have a question about finger coiling.. i just started wit the cg method (week 4) and to be honest I didnt expect that my hair with curl that fast but as I’m trying to finger coil sometimes I dont get the curl I want and my hair is so wavy but also curly.. how can I define more curls? Also when I diffuse some of my curls get wavy😢😔.. did I do something wrong? Or do I have to be patience? Can you please advise?
My four year old daughter is asking for stripes which means straight. I know it might be because what she watches and the kids in her class. I thought she would never ask me to straighten her hair since i always leave it curly.
Maria Zapata Yeah it seems like the older they get, the more they’re aware of what’s most popular on tv and their surroundings. As long as she has you affirming her, she’ll remember that as she grows up I’m sure 😊
@joybeforeher I used to think the only way I could deal with my curly hair was $200 blowouts every 3 months until I came across this channel and @manesbymell. Now my hair looks better than it ever did and I feel so beautiful and confident with my curls.
I love that the curly hair movement has embraced so many different people, regardless of gender/race/ethnicity - it's so amazing ❤️ I myself have wavy hair and am currently transitioning. Love you ladies and your positive vibes!!
FormerlyknownasPonti Thank you! And yes I love that too, it’s the way it should be!
We laughed so much during these collabs! I am SO happy we got to. meet in person and work together for the betterment of the curly community! Can't wait til our next meet up!!

Sahar Shawa Love this! Your daughter is blessed to have you teaching her love and acceptance! 💕
And we have to love our own curls, our own texture because we can’t necessarily have the same curls as you or Jackie. Great video!
Pamela Fitzpatrick Yes exactly! Our message is all about loving your own curls, whatever curl type they may be!
Girl love both of your hair it's sooo pretty ❤
Sage Clarke Thank you! 😊

You two ladies are so beautiful! I love your curly hair!! Transitioning is hard. I'm 4 years in and just in the last year learned to embrace and love!
I love the curly movement so much!! As someone with a Scottish heritage and texture I feel so embraced by this movement!! Thank you so much for being an inspiration for all of us to love our curls!!! I used to fight my texture so much and I am finally learning to really embrace it!

Miriam Michelle Thank you for watching!! 💖
You guys both have such beautiful hair I have course 3A 3B hair and I used to hate it but now I love it
Thank you! It’s been a long journey and to love what God gave me has been a game changer!

Both so stunning
Love you guys, I started my journey last April and I’m going through a rough stage right now with my curls. in the long run it will work out. 💜
I love your comment at 3:28. When I was starting my career in the eighties/nineties, I thought the same thing. Straight hair was professional.
My Irish mom didn’t know how to deal with my biracial hair so I got twice a year hair straighteners from 6! I wish I knew how to deal with my hair sooner. I was in my thirties almost 40 before I embraced my curls and had my last perm.
I feel bad it took that long. When I first wore my hair curly to work, it didn’t go unnoticed. Had a balding coworker ask if I stuck my finger in a light socket! Thankfully only one negative. And husband always prefers my hair curly.
Love both yalls curl patterns! Thx for making vids! I appreciate all the help in my journey:)
Yes I am still transitioning both of ur videos so helpful and inspiring - I feel exactly this way learning to have self love ❤️ thank u for sharing
I loved your collab with Jackie, both videos really spoke to me as a Puerto Rican naturally curly redhead. I always struggled with my hair growing up and even though my mom never put me down about it, she had straighter hair so she didn't know how to help.

I hear you about being a role model for our kids. I have four kids each with different texture and type of hair. My second daughter in particular has the curliest in our Japanese family. Her hair is lush, gorgeous, thick 3c curly hair.....but she’s always been self conscience because it’s very uncommon for Japanese to have such big thick curls.
I’m half Japanese but I got my 3a curls from my Irish dad. I used to wear my hair in a short straight bob, straightening it, but since getting a serious sickness it’s easier to just be curly and accept my hair as it is. I hope my daughter will embrace her curls. Both my girls were in social circles where blonde, blue eyes and straight hair is the norm...even my oldest daughter with super thick 2b hair is accepting her hair.
My boys have such different hair. One is thick wavy and super course, the other fine and super straight. My husband is bald. We’re all different and beautiful. Thanks for the message!
Love the both of you!! Need to meet you all soon! Both beautiful ladies with lovely curls 😍💙 And Kelly I need to know what routine you did bc girl😍😍that definition it ON POINT !!
Yay! Loved this!
Angela Bedoya Thank for watching Angela! 😊💖
❤️ I have a curly boy and I’m teaching him to love them , too
That is the reason I started my curly hair journey! My daughter has beautiful curls and I want her to love them as much as I do so, I had to love mine first!! Great job ladies!!
This whole video 💜👏👏👏.
Ahh! two of my favorite curlies together 💕 love you both! So inspirational! I’ve never loved my hair and myself more than I do now embracing my natural texture 🙌🏻👏🏻 great video guys 💋
Beautiful video Kelz! SO true about the kids thing, the reason I went natural was cause of my daughter as well
Genesis O'Neil Aww ur whole family is blessed with beautiful curls!! 🙌🏼💖
Love this!! Love what God gave you! Becoming a role model for your kids is great.
I'm in eighth grade and there is this one boy who always tells me to straighten my hair because I look weird and crazy (I'm not transitioning because i never really have done anything to ruin it) also I am Mexican and Syrian and have loose ringlets like you
Absolutely loved this video thank you guys
It’s so wonderful we have a place where all curly/wavy hair sisters can raise each other up ❤️
I love this! As someone who is smack in the middle of the transitioning stage, I love hearing stories like this that let me know it’s worth the wait!
this video helped me soo much i have curly hair and im transitioning rn being an afro latina buh pale olive skin its very confusing buh im excepting myself more and gaining a lot more confidence ayoooo💘💃🏽
I started my journey around a year and a half ago and I love my 3a hair now (it looks a lot like the girl on the left but thinner). My sister has 2b-2c hair and she straightens it every day because it’s frizzy and thick and she doesn’t know how to take care of it so I’m gonna teach her and give her tips so she starts embracing her natural hair :)
Love this message!!!
This is exactly why I’m transitioning. Because I want my daughter to love herself and her curls. And all the women in my life with curls straightened theirs.
Thank you for posting this video, it helped. It is a journey and a confusing one, Thanks for being honest and relatable.
Such a beautiful conversation. Thank you for this loves😘
Jackie is speaking the TRUTH. My profile pic is me straightening my hair, but I have 3 A hair and my journey was INTENSE.
LOVED this!!!

Soph H I working too because I’m in the military and I usually use silk scrunches and do what Kelly said about making sure it’s loose. Because we all know that dent in your hair when you are wearing a tight style... always causing for a refresh or wash day all over.
Great video!
Love this video! ♥️
My daughter has very straight hair. Everyone else in the family has curly hair. She has begged since she was small to have her hair permed. She doesn't like her straight hair.
My daughter is the same. Also the only one in the family with dead straight hair. She's been asking for curls since she was 4. She's 11 now. She would take my iron and miracurl to curl her hair when I wasn't at home and her hair was damaged from the heat so I I took her for the perm so she would stop curling it herself. She had curls for a day. Her hair was so straight the perm didn't take. Funny thing is I know how she feels. I was the only curly haired person in my family growing and my school.
Is there still a transition phase if you never dyed or straightened it but just didnt take care of it and are now going through the curly hair journey? Or is what you have now the best of it ?
there definitely is! i never straightened my hair, never dyed it and rarely used an airblower, but my hair still didn't look presentable. now i'm almost a year into curly girl method and i feel so confident now, my hair is so much healthier and curlier because it finally gets the moisture it had always needed.
Hey beauties!!!!

What do you think of the rice water treatments?
veronica newbury Never tried it but I heard good things
finally someone with my hair type 😭
I feel like I have three different types of hair. On the top they are like 3A-2C, but under this layer they are a little bit wavy. It makes me mad, because I do not have like a lot of thick hair.
I have a question about finger coiling.. i just started wit the cg method (week 4) and to be honest I didnt expect that my hair with curl that fast but as I’m trying to finger coil sometimes I dont get the curl I want and my hair is so wavy but also curly.. how can I define more curls? Also when I diffuse some of my curls get wavy😢😔.. did I do something wrong? Or do I have to be patience? Can you please advise?

Neve's Channel We want to! But I live up north and she lives down south so it’s a little hard lol
My four year old daughter is asking for stripes which means straight. I know it might be because what she watches and the kids in her class. I thought she would never ask me to straighten her hair since i always leave it curly.
Tell her I said her haiR is VERY VERY BEAUTIFUL 🦄🐩🐈💐🌷🌹
Maria Zapata Yeah it seems like the older they get, the more they’re aware of what’s most popular on tv and their surroundings. As long as she has you affirming her, she’ll remember that as she grows up I’m sure 😊
Wait...i’m confused! You’re not twins?
Is that your natural hair colour?

@joybeforeher I used to think the only way I could deal with my curly hair was $200 blowouts every 3 months until I came across this channel and @manesbymell. Now my hair looks better than it ever did and I feel so beautiful and confident with my curls.
