Don't Forget To Live Your Extra Life.
Brad Mondo creating and praising hair that looks (nearly) like mine has when I forget to brush it... after years of hearing people tell me my hair 'looks frizzy' or 'messy' or 'brush your hair' or 'use a straightener' is very validating in a way I didn't know I needed.
Girl i felt that cause I was so confused with the end result. Literally looks like my messy slept on curls
Omg same. The end result had me going “oh so my hair in the morning”
Don't we love when what we have naturally comes into style and everyone is trying to look like us for a while? The only problem I had, before layer cutting was my only cut, was the "triangle" look from the ends poofing after brushing. My hair would tangle easily when it was long so brushing was critical.
To this day i can't leave the house without combing my hair. So my waves end up puffy lolol
Same, except I am kind of forced to brush my hair out because it looks to stringy if I don’t, but when I did brush it out it turns into a frizzy mess! So I can never win! But thanks to Brad’s comments, I makes me feel as though my hair is pretty naturally! ❤️
I never bought a tool like that because I didn't like the super crispy crimp look. BUT THIS... oh buddy I'm glad my birthday is Monday, because I know what I want to buy for myself hehe 🤩 I'm so excited to follow this tutorial and have mermaid hair 💖
My bday is on Monday too! X
Happy early Birthday
Happy birthday!
@@odessawignall5940 Tysm!
@@Bellzgorg2 Happy (Early) Birthday!
Tbh I never dye my hair or really do anything with it except hair care. But I still always watch Brads videos cause they are so relaxing for some reason.
His videos ARE so relaxing and hilarious! I binge 🥰
I’ve had one of these for two years and I never knew how to use it 😭😭😭 thanks Brad!!!
This honestly makes me feel so much better about my natural hair texture! I have waves/loose curles that range from 2A-3A because my hair is very long with lots of layers (it covers my butt lol). But without any styling, I can brush my hair and run my fingers through it with a little oil, and it just has the natural "beach wave" pattern to it! I used to hate my hair but now I've learned to embrace it. It makes me so happy to see people desiring looser curls/waves bc I always thought they were just "meh" since everyone used to straighten them. Ive come to realize that all hair is equally beautiful, including mine :) Thank you Brad! xx
My hair looks like this, too, and I rarely go out without someone saying they love my waves. Ironic since I spent years blowing it straight due to a conservative job, but now I've grown it past my bra strap and let it be wild and free!
Your hair is pretty
My waves are natural,but if I had straight hair, I'd so be doing this technique, as it makes the hair look beautiful 💕
Mine too
Ignore the top/first reply! It's a scam
I have wavy hair too but it's often temperamental. So using a wave wand can help give my hair structure
Omg. In the 90s, when my hair was relaxed, I did the twisty technique alllll the time! 🤣 12 year old me was a professional!
You didn't need to use a relaxer. You could have just used a flat iron
@@paulgalvani2141 for longer lasting straight hair, people with very curly/textured hair use a relaxer. Straightening it isn’t going to last.
@@paulgalvani2141 lol I can’t tell you’ve never used a relaxer 😂😂😂
It’s nice to have a relaxer bc it chemically breaks bonds to creat straight hair. It’s nice if you tend to wear your hair straight often. Also takes way less time
@@Bribreezzzyy it damages it. I would never do it. I'm even scared to straighten my hair with a hair straightener!!!
@@paulgalvani2141 yeah but even the sun and repeat pool water exposure can damage hair.
I understand what you mean. But for folks with textured hair who want to wear their hair straight that’s a cost benefit analysis they have to weigh.
I love this tool. Although I do mine a little different. I alternate how the wave falls every section. One section I have the plate facing me, the next section I turn the plate away from me. It alternates your waves so they aren't all the same direction. I feel this really helps make it look more natural and less like you used a wave crimper.
Omg wait thank you for this
Thanks! I'll try to remember that 😊
Honestly exactly what i've been trying to do with my hair for eons. You are amazing at what you do.
This guy is on another level of adorable. I binge watch his videos for fun. He is quite the character.
I have really wanted to style my hair in a natural, loose looking wave for a long time! I really want to get one of those curlers now, thanks Brad! 😄
bedhead has a good one I think mine was under $30
Absolutely! ❤️
My last name is Buckley too ayee
White just looks so great on Brad, umm please I can't breathe, soooo prettyyyy
Lol
He looks great
Yes he does look 😍 👀 good in white
I finally ordered xmondo hair.... shampoo, conditioner and mousse....honestly my hair has never looked better...I've been telling everyone get xmondo NOW....LOVE IT AND YOU...THANKS 👍💯
WHOA! I am so excited about trying this. Brad is always teaching us how to make ourselves more beautiful, while reminding us that we are beautiful to begin with. 💜🥰
I literally crimp my hair all the time and I love it so much when crimped! This helped so much brad! This is the video I needed! Love u brad!🤍
I grew up as a major tomboy and now at 32 years old, even though my hair is tailbone length I literally have no idea how to style it other than braids and braided up-dos. Thanks for making all these tutorials for different tools and showing different techniques, it gives me to confidence to try something new :)
Brad, Ive been a licensed hair dresser for a little over 34 years and I love watching your channel, I learn something new every time! Its always so much fun. And I happen to have twin boys too, so much love to you!
Oh babyyyyy have I ever used one! Love love love a triple barrel waver, bar none most useful hair tool I used to own!
I wasn’t going for waves though lol, I’m a 90s 💁🏾♀️ girl and used mine exclusively for crisp, defined crimps - with the deep side part and swoop bang 🙌🏾🔥 suchhhhh a look, couldn’t tell me SHAT!
If I didn’t have locs now, I’d put some in right this instant 😙
Haha that swoopy bang was ESSENTIAL. bonus points if the swoop bangs were unnaturally straight while everything else was curled or crimped 😩
@@Sarah-ic4yu the straightest of straight, anchored down by all the black gel and all the pump it up spray you could stand 😂😂
Omg where has this man and his products and techniques been all of my life??? Ugh .. ❤️ loveeeee
I have naturally wavy hair, and what you just did on Miss Quin, looks *exactly* like mine after a great wash day!! *chef's kiss*
Actually.... that seems like a lot less work/time/effort than what I do on a regular lazy wash-and-go day lol
Saaaame
I have had my waving iron since the early 90s! It's the greatest thing since sliced bread and still works beautifully! I'm happy to know I've been using it correctly all these years! Fun fact: I also still have my crimping iron!
My mom still had her crimper from the 80s! til about 6 or 7 years ago and she threw it away. I wasn't too happy with her decision and would've gladly took it had I known she was gonna get rid of it. I had fond memories of crimping my hair as a 9/10 year old little girl. I told her 'you never know, it may come back in style' and now look! It's in style and I could've had a perfectly fine working legit 80s crimper! 😂
I haven't favorited a TH-cam video in years and I have now favorited this one. My gods. I never knew. Thank you Brad Mondo
Hi Brad! I've been subscribed to you since the start of Covid and I just wanted to say hello and tell you how much I've been enjoying your videos. I ADORE your energy!! You are so genuine, honest, and freaken hilarious!! You are seriously my favorite person online (possibly ever!). I'm 45, never married, no kids, and am only just getting back into makeup, fashion, etc over the last couple of years (makeup in the last few months) after a 15 year long break! I've been so nervous peeking my head out into this world and I just want you to know how much people like me appreciate how easy and fun you make everything seem. Did a wolf cut a few days ago (followed your instructions) and am in love! Thanks for being just an all around AMAZING human being. I wish you every success and joy in life. Thank you for bringing fun and enjoyable beauty back into my world :) Sending you so much love from Canada!!💖🇨🇦 Keep sparkling and sprinkling that magic unicorn s**t you have! 🦄✨😊
I threw my breakfast at the wall & spent the day disassociating. Brad always brings my back with a smile. 💖
hey brad I have a question, could you make an advice video for students in cosmetology
i think he already has one on being specifically a hairdresser, but i’d love another one from brad
I love this idea! I hope he sees this
Mr Mondo you young man are my hero 😁 I'm a nearly 50yr old with waist length hair and lost my waves the longer it got, but I made a promise I'd grow it as long as poss as I'm turning grey 😅 I've just tried the twist and wave technique and boy oh boy it looks amazing and I can work with thicker sections too, thank you for being you keep it up 😘
Me and my natural curls are only watching this because it’s Brad 😂
Wavy is my winter hair and in summer it goes curly! I always hated my winter hair texture since I miss my summer curls... everyone always says "oh no.. what happened your hair USED to be so pretty?"..So this is really nice to see some appreciation for some waves!
I just love you, Brad! You make me smile ear-to-ear, and I giggle, like a little girl, every time you say, “Hi, beautiful!” Thank you for your sincere charisma that fills me with a shameful amount of sheer joy! Lindsey ❤️🐞
I just came across this video and I immediately saved it and subscribed to your page. I love everything about your whole personality and vibe. Even though this video is a year old. I'm 46 years old, officially in menopause and have hypothyroidism so my hair is thinning and I'm trying different things to help combat that one of those being this tool. I have noticed when I use it sometimes I love the way that it makes my hair look and then other times I am not as happy with it. I'm definitely going to try these techniques. Thank you so much! You are just a delight!
can we just have a moment for brad’s hair, LIVING FOR THE 90s SHAG 🙌🏻
The fact that I want this tool so that my hair looks more “put together” than my natural hair pattern, then Brad Mondo’s tutorial makes it look similar to what I already have hahaa it’s validating
Wow, THANK YOU! Waves are in style and I never feel like this tool works. Perfect topic!
Holy - once again, Brad Mondo saved my life! Thank you so much for all these tipps 💖
Best waving video hands down. I always come back to this tutorial
I wear my hair like this everyday I never get tired of the look it’s my favorite
Holy guacamole I’ve been doing it wrong! Thankyou Brad I was about to put my hair waver in the bin because I hated the weird uniform look I always get
wow this takes me back to 2007-2011 when I used this crimper ALL THE TIME, never knew all of these tricks back then but this video makes me want to get one again!
Thanks Mr Mondo.😊
Such a brilliant channel.
I have had so many lovely compliments on how lovely my hair looks.
I tell people to check out your channel because your instructions are easy to follow and if followed properly anybody can have fabulous hair. I'm over fifty but Hey, I love the young, sassy styles.
Gonna try these waves, can't wait to purchase this tool.
I'll check out your hair products too!
My daughter watches your channel too.
She always cuts her own hair, it looks really good.👍
I love this tool!!! I wear extensions and it’s so easy to blend and look natural quickly before work. Thank you for the tips Brad
Your hair is giving me late 90’s boy band and I’m here for it
My favorite part was Brad's "I Love Hair" comment!! The hair is so fire! Love it!! Definitely trying this today!!
I used your 'trusty halo section' on my daughters hair tonight fornthe first time tonight, so i could crimp her hair for her dance tomorrow. GAME 👏 CHANGER 👏 It made it infinitely more easier to do her hair!!! Everything just flowed so much better 💚💚
This is how I do mine, hold the hair UP AND BOUNCE UP amazing technique brad! Love u so much!
This is my favorite tool, it mimics my natural wave pattern, but neater!
….which probably means I need to try your wave products 😂
I have one of this, that looks SICK!! 🤩🤩OMG! Now I know how to use it, mine been seating on my cupboard doing nothing for so long!Thank you Brad Mondo, you always amaze us!!!🥰😎😃
Hey! I love your videos! can you please make a video of how to dye your hair to colours but where they mix up in the middle?✨💅
You are such a talented person!!!!! Amazing ideas to make this tool to work! Nothing compared to what you see online with these horizontal lines. Well done Brad!
I’ve had this waving hair iron for a year or so and used it once because i didn’t like the way it made my hair look, after this video they look amazing! Def a 10/10 technique!
Buying the wave thingy tomorrow and adding all of the products to my XMondo list ASAP!!! Thanks Brad Mondo!!!
I've had one for years and only recently started using it more often and I'm OBSESSED with the waves it gives. If I use my fav heat/volume spray I've gotten up to 3 days wear out of it!!
I was literally thinking of giving mine away today. Thankfully I watched this video today! And Brad, I do watch your channel pretty much everyday ;)
Okay I’ve used this tool for years and YOU ARE A GENIUS BRAD! Never once thought about any of these techniques 👏 much love ❤️
I love this!! I want you to give us some more of these technique videos. My hair is the thick and slick type that it doesn't really hold curls and on top of that I have anxiety so I always sweat out almost any style 😅 I really need all the help I can get
I’m literally getting ready for an 80’s event and this is so helpful! Thanks Brad!✌🏼
I loooove you Brad, you made my life easier and prettier! 😍😘
Thank you for this vid! I have this waver and a larger one. I love them but hate the one-wave-across thing. Your tricks freaking solved my problems! Can’t wait to try them out! ❤️✂️
I love when you show how to make natural curls or natural waves and they look so gorgeous… And I’m sitting here with naturally curly hair thinking “What woman with natural curls or waves has hair that actually looks that good?!” 😂
I have this wavier & im so glad I watched this video! I found out I’m doing it right! But I also learned some stuff too! Thanks Brad
Cannot wait for my hair to grow back to being long enough to try these techniques!! Decided to try a pixie cut and now trying to grow it back to shoulder length
I was totally doing this the 'wrong' way. But as soon as you showed the right way, I was like:'of course! This makes so much sense!!'
Will definitely try.
Walked into a door at my new job, so same ❤️ I have curly wavy hair that doesn’t need any crimping whatsoever but I still thoroughly enjoyed this 👌🏻
Thank you for this video! I have had this waver for years and could never get the look I wanted. I’m so excited to try these tips and tricks out.
Can’t wait to try these techniques, the top hair I like to slant it slightly so I don’t have that weird wave on the top of my head
I hate using a curing iron as I kinda suck at it and it takes me forever. I usually just straighten my hair, but I think this could be a game changer! I can't wait to try this out! 😍 ❤️
I have a waver but I was using it wrong!! Thank you Brad you beautiful soul💖
O wow this works. Used the vertical method and lifted the roots. Now I have the hair I was looking for. I gave up on the styler as it made me look like I put my finger in the plug socket. This is gamechanging!!!
Yes! I have this tool this is exactly what I needed today! Hooray!
I have natural wavy/curly hair. Wavy when my hair is shorter and curly when my hair is longer. I love some of the techniques you use for wavy/curly hair especially if the hair is frizzy and dry
Gorgeous waves decoded. Thanks Brad ! I'd love to see you vintage hair tools in a video for fun. My Great Grandma uses to use a vintage Victorian hair curler. It's like an old cast iron hand iron that you heat over a fire, or stove. Talk about dangerous beauty tools. She also used copper coils to create curls after dampening her hair, all non electrical beauty tools. Also some of the wacky sci-fi esq. Electrical beauty tools from the 60's. That would be cool to see and fun to watch you use the right way. I can't imagine going thru that for a hairstyle apparently it could create style that lasted up to a week, just using waxes pomade s and home mixed oils. No Aqua Net needed( hadn't been invented yet). 😊 Pin curls, rag curls, pink foam rollers. My favorite thing passed down to me was the amazing styles I could create with different designs, and Temps of hot rollers. Am I a dork? Heck yes! These tools can singe you locks off if used incorrectly. However when we learn how to use the they create some beautiful, fun, classic, vintage, and even funky results. She used to tell me beauty can be painful. You'll forget about the Inconvenience when you are happy with the results.. We have so many skilled stylists, modern tools, and hair elixirs and products today. Many women never had access to in earlier era's. Yet they produced iconic stunning results with what little they had.
Thank you so much Brad! I tried this on my short hair and love the results! Looks soooo much better!
Love that shorter layered look with it almost makes me want to chop mine down. Gorgeous. Now if only I could get someone to do my top and back for me lol
I know this is about the waves. But man you're looking gorgeous in this video. Love your look, the outfit, the hair, everything. Keep up the good content.
I didn’t know I needed this video but I really did. Was totally using this tool incorrectly. Thanks Brad!
You don't know how much I needed this video! Thank you Brad!
I have the bed head blue waver and cut my hair to my shoulders so I haven’t been able to use it much….. I used the twisting technique on my hair, GORGEOUS!!!! And super easy! Thank you!
I love this tool! I’ve had the same Revlon one for 13 years lol
These tricks worked so well for me. Just what I was looking for!! Thank you! 🙏🏻
The elevating is such a good tip!
So glad to see this because I was interested in this tool --- but your result is exactly how my wavy hair air dries anyway! 😁
Yoooo, I am so glad you also showed how to use this on short hair. I love this styling tool but I'm not great at using it. Now I have some tricks to try 😉 TY!
My mother keeps asking me why am I watching you all the time. All I did was write a big paragraph about how amazing you are 😄
Brad should start a series on the channel where he dyes and cuts fans hair. Or people that have been on hairdresser reacts
I've had a wavy hair tool sitting in my drawer forever and NOW I'm going to use it 🤣😍 Just bought some products from your website and so excited for them to arrive! I would LOVE for you to do my hair...#1 hairstylist mad skills...
I love these video they help me so much with finding the correct products for my thin straight hair
Very smart elevating the hair for a better wave. Thanks for all the wonderful tips!! My hair is long, think and frizzy. 2b curls naturally. I use a Hairitage Wave Tool and love it because it doesn't create uniform waves by it's design. It gives great lift at the root which I love. Also is easier for me because it doesn't weigh as much as the type your showing and doesn't kill my thumb by the time I'm finished.
Thank you for this; I can now dig mine out from the back of my wardrobe and give it another go!
You killed that!! Love the different techniques. I've been wanting one of these for a long time. Guess I need to go get me one now.
I love ur channel and how u react to people completely failing with their hair and then turns out to be a masterpiece
I can just never get enough of your vibes :D I love it, always brightens my mood :> Thank you!
My hair is pretty much the same length and cut as the second one and i have natural 2B/2C waves/curls and i have been styling it purposely to get loose waves (closer to the 2B side) because i agree 100% it looks waaaay better that way on this length.
I pulled my Bondi Beach Waver out for the first time in 2 years. I forgot I had it. Lol Thanks Brad
Brad, I’ve done this same way you have done it my whole life. I have very fine hair and a lot of it. I’m so so so happy this is coming back into style!! I just turned 40 a couple days ago so it’s making me feel a little better!! I would love to send you some old photos if you can show me how!! Thankyou! ( I also have some extra tips and products I used to use!) Your my fave as always!!!
Edit: this style is very forgiving on fried as uneven hair if your too scared to lose length even though you know it needs to be CUT!! Believe me! I went to hair school I know all this but when you have fine thin hair your length seems to engulf you!!
Lol edit!! I was about to shut the video off before I was gonna add one of my tips and I heard you say it BRAD!! YES !! The sea salt spray!!! 😂😂😂 one of my favorite products In about 2000. YES!!!
Okay, I am sold! I agree that the way people have been using this tool looks so weird, but those waves are amazing! And so much less work then with a flat iron or curling iron.
I've been meaning to try out this style for a while and now I know how to do it professionally 💕so excitedd
I have the same crimper/ waver and it is my favorite thing to use on my hair, the waves turn out so pretty. I love it so much. I highly recommend getting one.
Yay!! I've been doing it the right way. Winning. 😁
I have one, and I just did my hair the other day and when I went out I got so many compliments and I got a number ☺️☺️☺️
I got on TH-cam today specifically to find a video like this. I love the idea of the waver, but I've seen the videos you're talking about where people get that uniwave, and I'm trying to avoid that. 😆 Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for showing me how to use my tool! I was not doing it right AT ALL!! ❤❤❤❤
