As a person with very curly hair, it blows my mind that a famous beauty expert is talking about styling curls. I'm young but even I remember the days of Lorraine Massey's book being my only resource and every stylist in town wanting to straighten my hair on the way out of the salon. I am so happy with this trend in the beauty industry yet I can only hope that curl and texture acceptance continues far past this trend. Let's make it happen!! Also from Queer Eye to Over the Top to this channel JVN is creating such incredible content and I love it!!!
Yesss. I was 35 when I found a hairdresser that knew what to do with my super curly hair. My mum got my childhood hairdresser to just cut all my hair off bc no one knew what to do with it! When I went to a hairdresser to get it straightened after I’d grown it all out, she complained that it took too long (and it looked TERRIBLE). FINALLY us curly haired people are being taught and encouraged to embrace and love our natural hair!!!! 👏👏👏
This is exactly what I was thinking. Also, the little side-eye crinkle, skeptical look he gives his hair while he is spraying the texturizing spray... That is the look everyone has made at their hair in the middle of attempting to push that 75% perfect style be 95% perfect... A little scolding to say, you better not make me wish I had stopped at 75%.
Yeah there are a ton of extra steps here. I just wash my hair, put in product, pin the top back and go. After years of struggling with my curls while everyone had stick straight hair, now it's my time to take advantage!
I'd love a video for a total beginner's guide on adding some variety to everyday looks? (eg straightening, curling, plaits, buns). I literally only know a basic ponytail and look the same everyday lol. I find a lot of style how-to videos intimidating and complicated tbh so would love a really simple one 🙂
Same. I have long hair so it’s always in a bun. When I do wear it down, people always comment on the length and curl. I’m watching closely to see what I can do to get the curl more tameable.
I’d highly recommend CuteGirlsHairstyles. Especially her earlier videos. She even did some “daddy dos” (styles meant for dads, and beginners) including one where her husband taught how to do a 3 strand braid.
Best way to protect your curls during night is using a satin or silk cap, you look like and old lady, but your curls survive the night. Or also, you can use a satin pillow case 🙂
Yes to the satin cap but you can also do a pineapple ponytail on the top of your head. Use a scrunchie or I use cut up sections from the ankle of an old tube sock. Doesn't crease the hair like a hair tie.
I have the same texture as Jonathan and pineapples have never worked for me. I recently discovered a method where you use 4 small clips to avoid crown flattening and it's changed my life. This is the video: th-cam.com/video/M-Ob-EVVjm8/w-d-xo.html and the method I'm referring to is at about the ten min mark
What Lily has said. Medusa clipping is the only way mine stay good for multiple days. Similarly my hair is a similar length and texture to Jonathan’s. I find pineapples or buffs stretch waves out too much and bonnets allow for too much movement.
Good stuff!! Curly Girl Method has heaps of info if you find yourself getting stuck. Your hair will go through a period of transition where you will regret changing, but stay the course and it will come right in no time!
I’ve lived 38 years with this weird curly/wavy hair that I never really quite knew how to style well. This is maybe one of the best videos I’ve watched on how to wash/diffuse style curly hair! Thank you!! (Also my first time ever seeing one of JVN videos!!!)
Yea curls! Bring them on! Mine are 62 years old and are finally fantastic with all the fun and great enhancing products like these. Thank you for your great help. I'm going to go out in style 😉😉. Thank you for your Beauty TH-cam channel. I'm so glad you've made it happen. Cherish you JVN, you make a significant difference in this world, in many aspects. Stay strong.
Right? I've seen so many curlygirl method videos and reddit posts, but it was always way too complicated. (I thought letting your hair be natural was supposed to be easier!?) I've never been able to get a diffuser not to make my hair frizz the eff out, but now I'm going to try this technique next wash!
The Pandemic meant I had to figure out my curls cuz I went 15 months without a cut! I am now a curly addict and LOVING my hair. This is a fantastic overview video. Anyone who wants to go deeper, figure out your curl type (I'm a 3A, it goes from 1-4, ABC within each number) and find youtubers who are exclusively curly hair experts. There are many out there, even down to high vs low density hair and more. I had NO idea I could have such predictably awesome curls.
I don’t have curly hair, but my daughter does. When I’m trying to take care of her hair it becomes a strugs-to-func situation. Thanks so much for this tutorial!!
Some tips that JVN didn't cover here that maybe you, with straight hair, never had to thought about: curly hair gets detangled ends to roots (don't get that comb or brush and push it down from the roots). Work the knots little by little. Try to not brush it dry as well -- that makes the hair look frizzy and can break it too --, but if your daughter hair gets very tangled, use a lil bit of oil, work through the bigger knots with the oil in your hands first, then come in with the brush. It's normal for the hair to get a bit "crunchy" after drying with mousse or cream on it; wait until it's COMPLETELY dry (either naturally or with the blow dryer), then come back with your hands with a lil bit of oil (or using an old soft cotton tshirt as a glove) and scrunch (that crunching motion JVN showed in the video) the hair until there's no crunchiness left. It's also very normal for people to have different kinds of curls and waves in their heads, so there might be some parts of her hair that are curlier, others are wavier, some can even be kinda straight! If she has a lot of different textures it might be a good idea to apply more or less product on that part of the head (more for curlier, less for straighter). I know this is a lot but your daughter will thank you in the future for helping her with her curls! :)
Yes mama! I was in the same boat, really curly and my mum had pin straight hair - so I didn't learn how to do my hair properly until I was in my 30s. The above tips are GREAT! And also check out The Curly Girl Method, there's a ton of information out there on how to style and manage curly hair of all textures and at all price points and skill levels. You are doing amazing just by even considering it! Go you!!
How has it taken five decades for me to discover these awesome tips? I am so done with allowing people who cut/color my hair thinking that straightening it is always the last step. I. Want. It. Natural.
Aghh! I literally have been waiting for Jonathan to talk about curls for soo long! Love this. But I would also really love it if we could see a whole cycle of curly hair. I feel like I'm quite confident with how I can style my hair straight out of the shower, but after the first day things start to look quite sad haha, and I haven't really found great ways to bring the curls back to life which ends up in a bun or a hat over them and then they are ruined, so I have to take showers more often than I would like.. Anyways, thanks for a great video Jonathan. I'm glad you're finally over on youtube :)
Oh honey you need to search up the Curly Girl Method, there's A TON of information out there!! Jonathan did a pretty amazing job of explaining styling but there are a couple more rules to follow (the 2 biggest are no sulphates aka no shampoo, and no silicone) But I've been CGM for 3 years now and have absolutely no regrets! Have fun!
If you have a wavier texture I’d recommend ManesbyMell (esp videos with her seester), Jayme Jo and Curly Susie! In order of most-informative to most-easy-to-follow.
@@anitaballachanda2693 curly suzie is why I decided to make the leap 3 years ago 😊 Her tutorials are easy, no bullshit, clear, and not pretentious or expensive to follow!! Love her
I have to admit, as someone with naturally curly hair, I was v skeptical. I've watched all of Queer Eye and seen JVN's Instagram, so I figured if anyone would know what he's talking about, it'd be him, but I was pretty sure I hadn't seen him with curly hair somehow. Had no idea his was naturally curly too! Honestly, the routine he does isn't super dissimilar from mine, though my hair is SO thick that it'd take hours if I spent an equivalent amount of time on it, if that makes sense. 😅 Like he clipped up his hair into two layers... Mine would be maybe 5-7 hahaha. and it would take maybe an hour to dry with a hairdryer. Needless to say, I've been waiting for this video since every single episode of Queer Eye ever 😭🧡 thanks JVN
THIS is the video I've been looking for! I have fine, curly hair and, even at 50, have never quite figured out how to help it live up to its curly potential. Thanks, JVN! 😘😘😘
I have 80’s Flashdance hair. In the 90’s I used to iron my hair (yes, an actual clothes iron). Now I’m just full 80’s hair. Curly hair is wild and fun. Embrace what you got!
I have naturally very straight hair and I’m so obsessed with curls that I set my hair in hot rollers or over night roller sets. Sending love to the natural curl Queens 💗
OMG! all you ALL need to say 'thank queen Jonathan for not just saving hairs but saving souls like mine!"....Thank you for keeping us focused on first things first! love yourself!
I’ve had curly hair my whole life & can even say I’m guilty of the over washing because I genuinely didn’t know what to do with my hair. Videos like these genuinely have helped me out. Thank you❣️
A couple years ago half my hair fell out due to stress and health. We chopped it short to try to take the weight off, I tried to leave my scalp alone because it was in pain, I ate way more protein to fit my lifestyle, and I researched the curly girl method and also for what the women of Color were doing for their hair. It saved my scalp. My hair over time got used to my natural waves and I started sprouting a couple real curls. I’m so happy being this way with my natural texture and my scalp isn’t in pain anymore. I do get slapped by non- curly girls (never guys) for saying curly girl method. To them I don’t have curly hair. But the actual curly girls are so kind and do agree that my hair is curly. I hope people become more accepting of the curly life. Everyone’s hair is so different and personal. It’s about appreciating what you have and loving your neighbor.
My mam has incredible frizzy hair and my hair is flat, straight, fine and flyaway. I remember we once went to the salon and I got a curly blow dry and mam got her hair straightened and my Dad said we'd swapped hair for the day! LOL Love seeing how you embrace your natural curls.
This is pretty similar to my strategy. I actually diffuse with clips on the roots if I'm looking for volume, though. I also put a layer of gel over my mouse to make the style last longer. As others have mentioned, if you haven't tried a Denman brush, DO IT!❤️ I don't use it most days, but when I'm putting in the time to look extra cute it's my best tool!
I've got a lot of natural curl and I straightened my hair for a lot of my adult life. Had some hideous haircuts chosen for me in elementary school 😂 This video is 50/50 stuff I'm doing and stuff I didn't know about, so it's both validating and educational for me, thank you 😁 I have to admit btw that I use some kind of leave-in moisturizer at basically every stage of drying/styling my hair once I'm out of the shower, like, it might be slightly excessive 🤣 But it might also be rescuing my hair because I started bleaching it a few years ago 👀😅
Oh my goodness I love you so much🥺 this really did my heart good. I love to see people embrace their natural curls. Watching tv growing up, it was so hard finding someone I could identify with and I used to wish my hair was straight so badly so I could fit in. There were days I would cry straightening my hair because it would never get as silky and straight as other people’s. But now I am deeply in love with my uniqueness and curls☺️ thank you so much for posting this and being a positive light 🙂
In Canada there are a chain of salons called Curl Ambassadors which only cater to curly hair people. Its been a life saver for those of us with lots of density and texture. In the salon we tilt our head forward when applying product till its saturated. Its so great to see JVN rocking this ! Love from Canada 🇨🇦.

Hi, me again. I will give all these tips to my niece, I am very straight but she... she has beautiful curls and they will be more with everything you teach. Thank you JVN you light up my life, our lifes!!! 💞
Honey, this is amazing!!! As somebody who's had curly hair all her life and struggle with it, you made me feel seen and actually excited to take better care of my curls! Thank you so much ❤️
My hair is moderately wavy, but wow, I don’t think I’ve ever used these many hair products. Can’t tell if this is just a sales pitch for bumble and bumble, or if I’m doing my hair wrong. Usually I just pat my hair dry and go.
Ooo so cute! How do you maintain the curls the next few days without squishing them completely? I'm struggling with that part. Love my curly hair, but after day 1 it's such a mess!
I use the sebastian curl cream, I rarely ever use mousse, so my curls are a bit on the softer side. I put my hair up in a *very* loose bun at the top of my head when I go to sleep. then in the morning I lean over the bathtub, flop my hair over, and I have a spray bottle with water and a liiiiiiiiiiittle bit of my curl cream in that I just mist my hair with and re-scrounge the curls ever so carefully.
THANK YOU!!!! I have always been hopeless with my curls (the texture is very similar to yours). It always looks nice on the first day and then a hot mess afterwards. Love you!!!!
I use leave in conditioner and/or hair oil on wet hair, like just stopped dripping hair, brush it through, and run my finger horizontally to break up the large chunks of pattern from brushing it. If I want volume, I hang my head upside down and wrap my hair in a towel or tshirt like a durag. Wait for it to dry and then unwrap and shake/poof.
Watching you embrace your natural curl pattern more and more has made me so so happy! When I was a little girl I never saw people with hair like mine and I had no idea how to style it, so I didn’t learn to love my hair until I was well into my 20s. Love this journey for you JVN
I would love a video about how to completely air-dry curly hair. Is there any way to keep it from completely flattening on top? Are the curly-hair products different for air-drying? I find it really hard not to tuck it behind my ears while it dries.😫
I learned from Curly Girl Handbook to use small clips to pin up a crown of curls at the top of your head so they set that way as they dry. But lately I’ve also found that I can take a big butterfly clip and do a high volume, loosely cinched half up/half down to get some of that effect. The latter technique has the benefit of looking semi-normal if I have to leave the house before it’s completely air dried (norms against wet hair in public be damned--it’s summer, anyway!). Not sure if this explanation is clear, but might help you not tuck while wet.
Something I’ve found helpful is “plopping” my damp hair with a cotton t-shirt (google for articles/vids on how to tie it up!). I use a microfibre head wrap when I initially come out of the shower. After I finish drying off/moisturizing/etc I’ll let my hair down, rake in product and then plop it on top of my head. I’ll keep it up for as long as it takes to get ready, or longer if I’m not leaving the house right away or at all :)
Yes! I have this problem too and have found the solution for me: clips on the top of my head while drying! They’re two-pronged and metal and I use maybe 8 around the crown of my head to lift the flat parts up while drying. Got them off Amazon. Also what’s helped is tilting my head down and toward my knees when applying conditioner. I then hold the ends in my hand to keep in the conditioner and rinse out the rest of my hair with my head DOWN still. Then when ready to towel, I use my Tee-Owl which i swear by for my long thick curly locks!
Omg! Just tried this and I’m loving my curls! I always struggle with wearing my curly hair natural and usually only looks good on day one. Gonna see how this looks on day 2-3! Thanks for the video!
The curly haired girls thank you for this tutorial! Also the diffuser yoga makes me feel SEEN!

I'm 24 and I've been straightening my hair since I was 13-14 because I had no reference I hated so much my curls. This really makes me want to embrace them and stop doing the keratin straightening treatment I do every year
OMG 😆 “My good friend Tan France! - It’s just fishnet stockings.” 😂🤣🤣🤣 Love you so much and you are an amazing human!! ❤️❤️❤️ And I LOVE those curls on you JVN!!!
Thanks so much; love your tips. My sister got the super thick, ringlet type hair from my mom. My fine, wavy hair seemed to only look its best in summer with added humidity until I started paying attention to moisture and using products. I am learning to better care for my long tresses and voila, I can have pretty curly hair now, even in winter! Who knew?! I know your tips are greatly improving the overall condition and behavior of my hair. Love your info, appreciate your style!!!!
I have long hair down to my waist, with mild body/waves, and I was skeptical about this. I was thrilled to have this treatment work!!! OMG!!! I've tried it a few times. I'm even able to brush it out when it's dry, then re-wet it down and reactivate the curls. This is really important because I play music outside at festivals and having a "rain sturdy" hairstyle has been a problem. I'm VERY happy to say this will solve a TON of prep problems. Thank you Jonathan! You ROCK on so many levels. This will save me a TON of time, and I'm so happy with it! :: HUGS ::
There's so much realness in the contortion involved to defuse properly! i'd love to see a video discussing how different shapes of curly hair suit different faces and body types (bob, afro, shoulder, long...))
You look so great with curly hair, you look similar to Michael Hutchene from INXS. Thank you so much for this channel, looking forward to seeing more videos!
Hi JVN! First of all i love you and thanks for the abundant content of curly hair care you produce in your vlogs. Hope you could read this one and help us out. Daily cleansing/shampooing of hair is recommended or even required especially when you just came outside as an extra precaution during this pandemic. But we all know that’s not good for a curly hair or any hair in general. How do we take better care of our curly hair especially during this pandemic when we are extra when it comes to cleanliness and disinfection. Thank you and i love you so much!
Wow diffusing really made a difference! I'm gonna try it this way because I've been avoiding it since it made my hair even frizzier when I tried it one time
Hi Jonathan, could you please make a video on how to take care of your hair and how to grow it long and healthy? How often to wash it, how often should you get a trim. Ect. Thank you ❤
so much work haha! I wash, detangle with my fingers a bit....use a bit of leave in conditioner....flip my head upside down and give it a wiggle and scrunch with fingers and done! I just air dry my hair, no need to heat...just a little patience and an episode or 2 of Buffy and done.
Jonathan I thought you were awesome in every way before, as a curly haired boy I now think you’re double awesome. What I wouldn’t have given for a role model like you in my life when I was growing up! X

The diffusing sequence is THE most accurate thing I’ve ever seen
This is exactly what I was thinking. Also, the little side-eye crinkle, skeptical look he gives his hair while he is spraying the texturizing spray... That is the look everyone has made at their hair in the middle of attempting to push that 75% perfect style be 95% perfect... A little scolding to say, you better not make me wish I had stopped at 75%.
I hope everyone that is "jealous of your curls" watches this and the effort we have to go through.... this is why I 95% of the time messy-bun it.
i'm still jealous of your curls.... but as someone who hates doing self care i'm like... i will just admire the curly haired's around me
But we don't really have to do all that. There's extra steps in there... lol
Yeah there are a ton of extra steps here. I just wash my hair, put in product, pin the top back and go. After years of struggling with my curls while everyone had stick straight hair, now it's my time to take advantage!
We love a natural hair moment! I would love to see a follow-up video to see how to enhance your day 2 and day 3 waves/curls!
a spray bottle with conditioner and water! some hair spray. maybe an update with mousse if necessary. That's about it!
Oh my god, yes please!!
Everyone in the curly community is RAGING that you wear your hair straight so much with curls like that
RIGHT?!?!
The curly community is toxic anyways. They talk about "being you" but the moment you talk about straightening they get pissed or try to talk you down.
It's because it takes so much more time.

Great video. I would like to know what do you do on the days you´re not washing it. and how to make them survive through a good night sleep

I have naturally very straight hair and I’m so obsessed with curls that I set my hair in hot rollers or over night roller sets.
Sending love to the natural curl Queens 💗
Les cheveux bouclés c'est superbe j'en ai toujours rêvé 😃❤❤❤❤❤❤ Cela te va tellement bien !!!!! 😍
As someone who has naturally uneven wavy hair this helped alot especially the moose application!! Thank you!!!
OMG! all you ALL need to say 'thank queen Jonathan for not just saving hairs but saving souls like mine!"....Thank you for keeping us focused on first things first! love yourself!
I’ve had curly hair my whole life & can even say I’m guilty of the over washing because I genuinely didn’t know what to do with my hair. Videos like these genuinely have helped me out. Thank you❣️
I was literally going to pick up my straightener but saw this video. Can’t wait to try this next time I wash.
A couple years ago half my hair fell out due to stress and health. We chopped it short to try to take the weight off, I tried to leave my scalp alone because it was in pain, I ate way more protein to fit my lifestyle, and I researched the curly girl method and also for what the women of Color were doing for their hair. It saved my scalp. My hair over time got used to my natural waves and I started sprouting a couple real curls. I’m so happy being this way with my natural texture and my scalp isn’t in pain anymore. I do get slapped by non- curly girls (never guys) for saying curly girl method. To them I don’t have curly hair. But the actual curly girls are so kind and do agree that my hair is curly. I hope people become more accepting of the curly life. Everyone’s hair is so different and personal. It’s about appreciating what you have and loving your neighbor.
My mam has incredible frizzy hair and my hair is flat, straight, fine and flyaway. I remember we once went to the salon and I got a curly blow dry and mam got her hair straightened and my Dad said we'd swapped hair for the day! LOL
Love seeing how you embrace your natural curls.
This is pretty similar to my strategy. I actually diffuse with clips on the roots if I'm looking for volume, though. I also put a layer of gel over my mouse to make the style last longer.
As others have mentioned, if you haven't tried a Denman brush, DO IT!❤️ I don't use it most days, but when I'm putting in the time to look extra cute it's my best tool!
I've got a lot of natural curl and I straightened my hair for a lot of my adult life. Had some hideous haircuts chosen for me in elementary school 😂 This video is 50/50 stuff I'm doing and stuff I didn't know about, so it's both validating and educational for me, thank you 😁 I have to admit btw that I use some kind of leave-in moisturizer at basically every stage of drying/styling my hair once I'm out of the shower, like, it might be slightly excessive 🤣 But it might also be rescuing my hair because I started bleaching it a few years ago 👀😅
Omg. I just had to pause to say this. Jonathan. Darling. You are FLAWLESS with your towel dried hair 😍 **swoon**
❤️❤️❤️
I have SUPER stick-straight hair & would LOVE to see a video about different hairstyles I can do with it!
Omg! Jonathan you look gorgeous with curly hair !
Yess let’s embrace the curls
Thank you for giving us curly friends content!! What do you do with your curls at night and on second day to make them still look fab?
This is the best video I’ve seen about curly hair!
Gorge 😍 my hair is not even curly but here I am 😂 ♥
Look at those kick ass curls! You own it honey!
This is the best curly hair video ever!!
Oh my goodness I love you so much🥺 this really did my heart good. I love to see people embrace their natural curls. Watching tv growing up, it was so hard finding someone I could identify with and I used to wish my hair was straight so badly so I could fit in. There were days I would cry straightening my hair because it would never get as silky and straight as other people’s. But now I am deeply in love with my uniqueness and curls☺️ thank you so much for posting this and being a positive light 🙂
In Canada there are a chain of salons called Curl Ambassadors which only cater to curly hair people. Its been a life saver for those of us with lots of density and texture.
In the salon we tilt our head forward when applying product till its saturated.
Its so great to see JVN rocking this ! Love from Canada 🇨🇦.
Hi, me again. I will give all these tips to my niece, I am very straight but she... she has beautiful curls and they will be more with everything you teach. Thank you JVN you light up my life, our lifes!!! 💞
Love this! The fishnet idea is pure genius 😄
Honey, this is amazing!!! As somebody who's had curly hair all her life and struggle with it, you made me feel seen and actually excited to take better care of my curls! Thank you so much ❤️
Oh god! The contortions we do... To get the best dry/position combo
The info on what to do for the top of the head is extremely helpful
My hair is moderately wavy, but wow, I don’t think I’ve ever used these many hair products. Can’t tell if this is just a sales pitch for bumble and bumble, or if I’m doing my hair wrong. Usually I just pat my hair dry and go.
Squelch...ok purrr queen! 🥰👑
❤️❤️❤️
i love that ending so much
I don’t know how you do this. Well, now I do… but you’re just always looking great! And you defusing your hair is me when I’m going through it.
JVN we STAN!!! You are giving me life, honey!
These tips are Game Changing! Love 💕 the information for us curly hair folks- I picked up the Bumble and Bumble hair texture spray, we’ll see!
Your texture is so much like mine, along with length! Love these tips!
Ooo so cute! How do you maintain the curls the next few days without squishing them completely? I'm struggling with that part. Love my curly hair, but after day 1 it's such a mess!
i do 2 dutch braids before bed, one on each side... but yes the curl power goes down after some days :(
Silk scarves or plopping
I pineapple my hair at night and use a satin pillowcase.
I use the sebastian curl cream, I rarely ever use mousse, so my curls are a bit on the softer side. I put my hair up in a *very* loose bun at the top of my head when I go to sleep. then in the morning I lean over the bathtub, flop my hair over, and I have a spray bottle with water and a liiiiiiiiiiittle bit of my curl cream in that I just mist my hair with and re-scrounge the curls ever so carefully.
Plopping in a T-shirt works miracles!
THANK YOU!!!! I have always been hopeless with my curls (the texture is very similar to yours). It always looks nice on the first day and then a hot mess afterwards. Love you!!!!
THANK GOD FOR THIS CHANNEL 😭 WE LOVE YEWWWWW!!💜
I use leave in conditioner and/or hair oil on wet hair, like just stopped dripping hair, brush it through, and run my finger horizontally to break up the large chunks of pattern from brushing it. If I want volume, I hang my head upside down and wrap my hair in a towel or tshirt like a durag. Wait for it to dry and then unwrap and shake/poof.
I have been struggling with my wavy hair! I tried this last night and my hair looks 100% better I feel way more confident already! Thank you so much
Ooh..... Love the fishnet hack!!
Watching you embrace your natural curl pattern more and more has made me so so happy! When I was a little girl I never saw people with hair like mine and I had no idea how to style it, so I didn’t learn to love my hair until I was well into my 20s. Love this journey for you JVN
Your hair is exactly like mine. I need to follow this tutorial.
goooorrrrggggeeee
I would love a video about how to completely air-dry curly hair. Is there any way to keep it from completely flattening on top? Are the curly-hair products different for air-drying? I find it really hard not to tuck it behind my ears while it dries.😫
I learned from Curly Girl Handbook to use small clips to pin up a crown of curls at the top of your head so they set that way as they dry. But lately I’ve also found that I can take a big butterfly clip and do a high volume, loosely cinched half up/half down to get some of that effect. The latter technique has the benefit of looking semi-normal if I have to leave the house before it’s completely air dried (norms against wet hair in public be damned--it’s summer, anyway!). Not sure if this explanation is clear, but might help you not tuck while wet.
@@maddiechera4708 Thank you Maddie!! Genius with the butterfly clip idea. 🥰
Something I’ve found helpful is “plopping” my damp hair with a cotton t-shirt (google for articles/vids on how to tie it up!). I use a microfibre head wrap when I initially come out of the shower. After I finish drying off/moisturizing/etc I’ll let my hair down, rake in product and then plop it on top of my head. I’ll keep it up for as long as it takes to get ready, or longer if I’m not leaving the house right away or at all :)
Yes! I have this problem too and have found the solution for me: clips on the top of my head while drying! They’re two-pronged and metal and I use maybe 8 around the crown of my head to lift the flat parts up while drying. Got them off Amazon. Also what’s helped is tilting my head down and toward my knees when applying conditioner. I then hold the ends in my hand to keep in the conditioner and rinse out the rest of my hair with my head DOWN still. Then when ready to towel, I use my Tee-Owl which i swear by for my long thick curly locks!
Omg! Just tried this and I’m loving my curls! I always struggle with wearing my curly hair natural and usually only looks good on day one. Gonna see how this looks on day 2-3! Thanks for the video!
The curly haired girls thank you for this tutorial! Also the diffuser yoga makes me feel SEEN!
I'm 24 and I've been straightening my hair since I was 13-14 because I had no reference I hated so much my curls. This really makes me want to embrace them and stop doing the keratin straightening treatment I do every year
It’s the opening KICK for meee! 💚
OMG 😆 “My good friend Tan France! - It’s just fishnet stockings.” 😂🤣🤣🤣
Love you so much and you are an amazing human!! ❤️❤️❤️
And I LOVE those curls on you JVN!!!
Thanks so much; love your tips. My sister got the super thick, ringlet type hair from my mom. My fine, wavy hair seemed to only look its best in summer with added humidity until I started paying attention to moisture and using products. I am learning to better care for my long tresses and voila, I can have pretty curly hair now, even in winter! Who knew?! I know your tips are greatly improving the overall condition and behavior of my hair. Love your info, appreciate your style!!!!
Yes!! Help me with my 2a wavy hair, Jonathan ❤
I have long hair down to my waist, with mild body/waves, and I was skeptical about this. I was thrilled to have this treatment work!!! OMG!!!
I've tried it a few times. I'm even able to brush it out when it's dry, then re-wet it down and reactivate the curls. This is really important because I play music outside at festivals and having a "rain sturdy" hairstyle has been a problem. I'm VERY happy to say this will solve a TON of prep problems.
Thank you Jonathan! You ROCK on so many levels. This will save me a TON of time, and I'm so happy with it! :: HUGS ::
Loved this! Thanks for sharing Jon!
There's so much realness in the contortion involved to defuse properly!
i'd love to see a video discussing how different shapes of curly hair suit different faces and body types (bob, afro, shoulder, long...))
Beautiful!! I didn't even know you have such curly hair!!
Please make a video about different hairstyles for different hairlines
You look so great with curly hair, you look similar to Michael Hutchene from INXS. Thank you so much for this channel, looking forward to seeing more videos!
Hi JVN! First of all i love you and thanks for the abundant content of curly hair care you produce in your vlogs. Hope you could read this one and help us out. Daily cleansing/shampooing of hair is recommended or even required especially when you just came outside as an extra precaution during this pandemic. But we all know that’s not good for a curly hair or any hair in general. How do we take better care of our curly hair especially during this pandemic when we are extra when it comes to cleanliness and disinfection. Thank you and i love you so much!
So good! I think our hair is a similar texture, and I've been trying to get this level of curls.
Wow diffusing really made a difference! I'm gonna try it this way because I've been avoiding it since it made my hair even frizzier when I tried it one time
Okay I'm definitely buying a diffuser now! Great video 💙
Hi Jonathan, could you please make a video on how to take care of your hair and how to grow it long and healthy? How often to wash it, how often should you get a trim. Ect. Thank you ❤
OMG Thank YOU 😍 Needed this, would love to see more, like ways to style n such 👏👏👏
Yay, a new curl friend!
I’ll probably never take the time to diffuse/blowdry my hair good, but wowow thESE CURLS!! Ugh the potential my hair has
so much work haha! I wash, detangle with my fingers a bit....use a bit of leave in conditioner....flip my head upside down and give it a wiggle and scrunch with fingers and done! I just air dry my hair, no need to heat...just a little patience and an episode or 2 of Buffy and done.
I LOVE your curly hair tips!!!
I don’t have curly or wavy hair at all but just came to say you’re a amazing and so aspirational for me! You are everything the world needs right now.
I was literally in the bathroom for aaages trying to encourage my waves to stay today xD I needed this video so bad! Thank you
You killed me with the Tans Frans part :) love your channel Queen!
I pressed the like button during advertisements just because I knew I’m going to enjoyed like the Curious Podcast :)
Thanks for the content 🤍
Jonathan I thought you were awesome in every way before, as a curly haired boy I now think you’re double awesome. What I wouldn’t have given for a role model like you in my life when I was growing up! X
