No one has completely straight hair naturally. So there isn’t a natural routine. It’s probably included heat tools. Also curly girl method is for waves and curls. Just use lighter weight products so gels rather than creams etc
Hey Isabella, I think you should try getting a layered haircut. Your hair right now has a very blunt, straight cut, so the top layers of your hair are getting weighed down. Look at the bottom layers - they are much more defined. So i think getting a right haircut might be very beneficial for you. You don’t need to go to the curly hair specialist, more often than not, they don’t have a lot of experience cutting wavy hair. Just go to your regular stylist and ask for some medium-short layers. I’m sure your hair would spring up. Keep up the good work, us wavies need to stick together!
Hi Isabella! I dont know if you will read my comment but I hope so cause I like you and watch your hair videos. You are the only youtuber I have seen sharing her struggling with hair and it's sort of enjoyable to see we are not the only one with this struggle. Anyway thanks to a video by Mane by Mel I have finaly figured out how to get perfect wavy hair. I mean they are not every day as wavy as when I have just washed them, but my hair is every day with defined waves/curls with no freeze and very shiny! And the secret is... moisture and protein balance! I love the castor oil mask by shea moisture that I use before my shampoo, and I also use a mousse enriched in proteins. And it's a dream came true! Good luck ❤
Hey Isabella my hair has way less wave then yours does so I apply flaxseed gel on my hair and it has made my hair a lot more softer and my frizz nearly non existent Thank you for everything you do it helps us viewers a lot
Ngl your hair does not look as bad as you describe it or maybe I am the only person thinking this way. Your hair texture is like the go-to hairstructure I know from every kinda curly haired girl. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Maybe just do what you want with your hair and accept it. For sure it wont be straight and silky anymore but your hair on the left side looks so muhc more natural and beautiful to me like idk. Maybe you need to hear this from a complete stranger on the internet. But thank you for sharing your journey as it helped me with my hair struggles as well.
I love the amount of work and effort you put in figuring out the best for your hair... I have type 4 hair (super coily hair) and I am just now learning how to take care of it properly... so I takes time but eventually it becomes easier 🥰
I just noticed, I love how you changed your TH-cam photo with your wavy hair! I know this journey has been very hard for you but I can feel that you’re starting to really accept and love your hair. As a person who’s really anticipate your cgm vids, I am very happy and proud of you❣️ Also, thank you for your vids, they inspire me a lot! I am also learning to love my natural frizzy hair >.
Have you tried a mousse? I've got a very similar curl pattern to you (2b mainly but parts are 2a and some parts are 2c) and I find mousse gives me the best hold while still enhancing my waves
honestly i love mousse, the generic morrisons pink mousse has been my fav so far but the superdrug lvl 3 firm hold is also pretty accessible and good! mousse takes less time than gel to dry but still eliminates frizz which is super good if you're always on time constraints like me haha
@@oggtastic curly hair girls say not to use stuff like l'oreal as they sell straight hair products not only curly i suggest looking for a moose brand that oNLY specialises in curly hair but u can do wat u want xxxxx
GIRL! Your hair is amazing! And yup! Definitely you are transitioning from straight to wavy hair. The same happened to me when I was a teen. Kisses from Costa Rica. Muaaaaaah!
Because of you I have discovered the curly girl method and it has changed my life. I really appreciate all you have told us and I agree that gel is wonderful. Thank you for documenting your struggles...I hope they resolve, but I certainly have learned so much from your openness, thank you, ❤️🙏🏼⭐️🌞
gel is everythinggggg. i have the frizziest thick 2c hair and i order gel by the gallon LOL...it changed my life. thanks for continuing to share your hair journey with us.
Try using a light weight leave in conditioner before the gel for a more moisturized look. And maybe finger coil then scrunch with gel for more defined curls
My hair is mixed straight and wavy, but mostly straight with some waves in the back. I usually say my hair texture is not straight, not wavy. It’s frizzy. The only thing to tame it, is time between washes as the fizz will settle down naturally with the natural oils from my scalp, but i don’t think i’ll ever be able to achieve nice freshly washed hair with no frizz. These two things just don’t work together for me. I did try flaxseed gel but it didn’t do too much for me, i probably didn’t use enough :P Following your entire journey i picked up some tricks that make the frizz more bearable (apple cider rinse, no heat, silk cap/pillowcase, protective sleep style) but it’s never fully gone. it did get better but it’s still very apparent. I’m happy with my hair tho. I love my hair. Just the way it is So i wanna continue to care for it, not because i want it to “look better” but because i love it and i want it to be as healthy as possible 🥰 You helped me a lot on my way to healthier hair so thank you Isabella. I hope one day you can love your hair too just the way it is. Because i know how hard that can be
aw thank you! yes i find that even with all the methods I've used over the years my frizz is always present and always comes back, but I am learning to accept and love my hair more these days! x I'm glad you enjoy my videos and thank you for watching! xx
also yes, with the flax seed gel i use looooads. until my hair is all slimey, I find more gel works better in my own experience, but I'm still experimenting and learning x
i know that it's not for everybody but i started washing my hair with water only about a year ago and it's done wonders for my hair. it's a lot wavier than when i used shampoo and it's really healthy and not frizzy at all. Since you said that the oils from your scalp help you with frizz maybe that's something to look into. it takes some getting used to and the transition period is pretty bad but for me it was totally worth it
My hair is so confusing. I have been wearing it straight my entire life. When I blow dry it, it dries straight. I noticed when I let it air dry it has a very slight wave. No frizz, just a light bend. I wouldn’t say it’s 2a texture but it’s definitely not straight. I don’t known if I should keep treating it like straight hair or if I should try to find a routine that enhances my natural “wave”.
I agree with the previous comments, you're hair is probably wavy but that doesn't mean you have to change your routine especially if your current routine still works for you and if you want to wear your hair wavy just let it air dry and see what happens :) This is not because your hair is wavy that you have to wear it this way or search to enhance it
Maybe try no silicones or sulphates and no harsh alcohols etc and just see how your hair reacts. If nothing happens, you're just giving your hair a little extra tlc!!
Wow , just watched your full journey. I’m so glad u found a type of routine that does ur hair some justice. Well done! Congrats , a new subscriber :) x
I don't know if you'll read this but I've been following your journey for a while now. I see the struggle to long, thick healthy hair and I feel you, I'm on the same path, which feels never ending but I do have to say, your hair looks much healthier and silky. I want long hair so bad that sometimes I loose the sight on the hair quality which is equally important. I truly love your hair colour, texture and how shinny looks. Keep it going girl!!!
been watching your hair updates. I actually followed you YEARS ago when you we doing your first grow out. I was so sad to see your hair trouble😭 I know the feeling. I caught my hair on fire one year. Then the pill caused me to go almost bald the next. Eating beef liver saved my hair! Then i had four babies back to back and of course lose a lot of hair after each kid. Then i learn how important animal foods ard for you hair. More hair has thickened and started growing twice as fast ss before! All the protien i guess. Anyway, I love your videos! Lets grow our hair!!😊😊😍😍
Your hair like this, suits you the best! And i ve been watching your vids since u has long straight hair... I think those cute curls really show good on you
Girl your hair looks great Also I don’t know if your still wondering but a hair doctor is actually called a hair tricologist (excuse my spelling) they usually specialise in the hair and the scalp
Hi! I just watched this video, and then watched your 'my hair journey' video. Best of luck with figuring out your hair! I'm trying to figure out my frizzy hair too. You mentioned that you've done a lot of deep conditioning to try to fix your frizz, and I was wondering if you've looked into hydral fatigue? Sometimes your hair can go frizzy because of excess water rather than lack of moisture. Since you've done a lot to keep your hair moisturized, I wonder if that might not be an issue for you. Apparently there are two things you can do to help this: - Apply a heavy oil like coconut or olive oil to dry hair, at least 30 minutes before washing your hair. This prevents your hair from soaking up too much water. (I got this from the Curly Chemist here on TH-cam) - Use more products that contain proteins, or do protein treatments (like putting egg in your hair for 10-20 minutes before washing). I'm going to be trying the pre-poo oil method on my next wash day tomorrow myself. I hope you or someone else finds this useful!
Something that has helped my wavy frizzy hair on the curly method is changing the way I brush my hair. I have reduced my breakage by more than half by brushing my hair with a wide tooth comb from the ENDS up. (if you head little crinkle noises when you're brushing your hair it is the sound of your hair breaking!!! its not the sound of going through knots, it is your hair breaking off).
My hair is actually frizzier than yours (but maybe that's because it's a lot thicker so it just looks like there's more frizz) and girl I feel you. Gel has literally saved my hair, I wouldn't feel confident without it.
Thanks for this! I used to only use conditioning creams but now I know to get rid of the frizz I should use a gel too! Could you do a cream vs gel side video?
Wow, your hair really looks healthier and glossier than it used to be. Your hard work is so admirable and you always look beautiful, never forget that. I have curlier hair and I was always disgusted with hair gel, but seeing you using a Aloe Vera gel I might as well give it a shot and if it doesn't work I can use the aloe vera gel for other purposes!!😊😊😊
thank you! the aloe vera gel is definitely less sticky and its a more natural and simple option. it doesn't give as much curl definition but it does look nice when I use it in my experience.
I have the EXACT same hair type as you. Literally the exact same and I struggle with it too. Nothing I do ever works so I'm gonna give the hair gel a go.
did you know rye flour can be used as a shampoo? i wanna try that sometime and i found a guide on how to prepare it (its in german) but i think maybe you wanna try that, too? btw im so glad your hair is doing so well and i hope you are, too! see you next week
i had frizzy hair too so i got a treatment, i know this didn't worked for you but it worked for my sister's friend. she got a treatment and also put some vitamin in her hair and her hair was very healthy so i asked my parents if i could, at first they said no but after a few weeks or maybe about a month they agreed! I got the treatment a few weeks ago and it seemed to be working pretty well, I'm not sure how long this is gonna last but if it doesn’t work, i will make sure to try the curly girl method!
Hi Isabella, for starters: wow your hair looks so healthy and shiny and omg!!! So cool to see where this journey got you. And you've also inspired me to follow the CGM and it's really helped me fix many problems I had with styling my hair curly before. I was wondering if you could make a video on plopping. It basically means you style your hair and add product when it is soaking wet, then let it sit in a T-Shirt/Microfiber towel for a bit before you finish drying. It is supposed to help with definition and formation of curl clumps (these individual curl strands).
@@IsabellaDemarko That sounds cool! I have been experimenting with that too. Love how the curls look and the volume but it's thougher to get my oily scalp clean. Excited to see how it will turn out for you :D
Girl you need to try using a lightweight leave in, cream and then the gel. I have 2C/3A hair but when I started transitioning my hair was your frizzy side. For your hair type maybe use a leave in spray then the tiniest amount of cream and then your usual gel 👍🏼 you’ll have great definition, volume and no frizz 🙌🏼
My hair used to be puffy, without bounce and definition. I recently switched to a completely natural shampoo and I banned conditioners (because they almost always contain quats) and oh my gosh, after a couple of weeks my hair has completely transformed. Actually, I came back to my natural hair, when it is washed only, in the most natural way possible, without any chemicals added to it. It feels light, bouncy and I see the individual strands without any added product. Only a gentle shampoo that's all it needs. Oh and oiling before shampoo (I use Complexe 5 from René Furterer and Amalaki oil from Blue Beautyfly). My hair is fine but I have a lot of it. Hope this helps.
I like the care and attention you give to this hair journey, and how it shows in your videos. Especially how you do that without going too far. I.e., you try to stay balanced and objective about so you don't lose yourself in the process. Not too much anyway, heh!
You can try to use a protein containing product of any kind. Like conditioner or curl cream. The protein will add the fragments back into your hair strands and help with frizz without gel.
i have the same hair texture and length and i recommend using any kind of oil and braiding it lightly to not interfere with the natural wave pattern but enough to give it definition so it won't be frizzy
Hi Isabella, first of all sorry for bad english, it's just not my natural language. My wave pattern is 2b 2c kinda similiar to yours, maybe a bit thighter. I struggle with my hair a LOT. Like 2 weeks ago a had the best washday I have ever had and I used just leave in conditioner. My hair looked amazing without refresh even on day 3 and 4 and I was so happy that i finally found a good routine that fits me. But today i did the exact same thing and my hair is frizzy and undefined but very soft to touch. I figured out that I might have moisture overload. Maybe this is you problem too.
Hey, just watched all your videos, my hair are super fine and limp , they use to be really straight now they are getting weird frizz and gone really dry, I don’t use hot tools, my hairdresser recommended Oiai hair mousse for curly hair air dry, it’s amazing 🤩
my hair looks like that when i dont use gel too! but sometimes i dont use gel if i want to my hair to dry quicker or if i feel lazy and want it tied up for the day. strangely enough when i take my hair tie off my hair is practically straight but it still clumps and less frizzy than usual. maybe this is what they mean when they say wavy hair is versatile
Your hair is looking so good ❤️ I’ve recently discovered the Denman brush, and I must say my curls are looking so beautiful! We have very similar hair and so I think it’ll be amazing for you!
Can we talk about how healthy and gorgeous her hair is now! And she deserves it x
So true! Love the waves! And it is getting longer healthily now :) :) :)
Yes it’s so beautiful!! ❤️
absolutely! shes such a sweet girl
G weird flex but ok ( just joking girl good for you )
G so?😂
*Straight hair routine*
*Curly girl routine*
Where is *wavy hair routine* ?
There should be one!
The curly girl method is also for wavies lol and also there is no 'straight hair method'
@@stevegreet3554 sorry but I've seen girls posting *My straight hair care routine* kinda thing.
cgm is for wavies too but in my experience the only difference is the kind of products to use
Yess
But my hair is between straight and wavy so idk what type of hair I have 🤔🤔🤔
No one has completely straight hair naturally. So there isn’t a natural routine. It’s probably included heat tools. Also curly girl method is for waves and curls. Just use lighter weight products so gels rather than creams etc
I just wanted to tell you that the last video you posted actually got me to start learning how to roller skate.
The Fabulous Random Gal that’s great
Wowwwwww!!!!!!!
The same!!
That's so great!!! Hope you make it like a pro!!!
aw yay! i'm so glad
I love the fact that we follow the evolution of her hair through her videos 😁
Hey Isabella, I think you should try getting a layered haircut. Your hair right now has a very blunt, straight cut, so the top layers of your hair are getting weighed down. Look at the bottom layers - they are much more defined. So i think getting a right haircut might be very beneficial for you. You don’t need to go to the curly hair specialist, more often than not, they don’t have a lot of experience cutting wavy hair. Just go to your regular stylist and ask for some medium-short layers. I’m sure your hair would spring up. Keep up the good work, us wavies need to stick together!

Hey Isabella my hair has way less wave then yours does so I apply flaxseed gel on my hair and it has made my hair a lot more softer and my frizz nearly non existent
Thank you for everything you do it helps us viewers a lot
Flaxseed gel dries hair through time try to use an oil with it
Hajar Louani i do that but thank you
natasha romanoff i still have a light wave especially at the ends and my hair curls up when wet but there is no hold
how do prepare it...and what is the amount id flaxseed applied to water
How do you use it?
Ngl your hair does not look as bad as you describe it or maybe I am the only person thinking this way. Your hair texture is like the go-to hairstructure I know from every kinda curly haired girl.

If you let it air dry and it shows some waves than you it's defenitly wavy hair that u was forcing to be straight trough blowdrying
Your hair is naturally wavy , try to do wavy routine and check how your hair will become
I agree with the previous comments, you're hair is probably wavy but that doesn't mean you have to change your routine especially if your current routine still works for you and if you want to wear your hair wavy just let it air dry and see what happens :) This is not because your hair is wavy that you have to wear it this way or search to enhance it

Hi! I just watched this video, and then watched your 'my hair journey' video. Best of luck with figuring out your hair! I'm trying to figure out my frizzy hair too. You mentioned that you've done a lot of deep conditioning to try to fix your frizz, and I was wondering if you've looked into hydral fatigue?

I love how my hair looks when I do the gel! I just feel so much more put together 👍🏻
Omg where has this video been all my life!!!
Something that has helped my wavy frizzy hair on the curly method is changing the way I brush my hair. I have reduced my breakage by more than half by brushing my hair with a wide tooth comb from the ENDS up.

I really like the verb curl cream because it adds moisture and hold. The extra boost in moisture can help with frizz too!
your hair is so nice and healthy now, I'm so happy for uuu
You can always try dernman brush for your hair. I'm your hair twin, and I use fake denman brush from aliexpress ( 2 euro). I trully recomend it ❤️
Her wavy hair is so beautiful and would look absolutely gorgeous at tailbone length
Thank you for making these videos! You are teaching me so much about my hair I never knew
Your hair looks BEAUTIFUL 😍😍😍
Thanks for this! I used to only use conditioning creams but now I know to get rid of the frizz I should use a gel too! Could you do a cream vs gel side video?

Thanks, this was so informative. Can you do a curl gel Vs flaxseed+aloe gel, one side each?
Your hair looks so beautiful! 😍
Omg the aloe Vera gel did help me tame my frizz! Thanks u!!!!!!
I can't believe she did this for us!
Hi Isabella, for starters: wow your hair looks so healthy and shiny and omg!!! So cool to see where this journey got you. And you've also inspired me to follow the CGM and it's really helped me fix many problems I had with styling my hair curly before.
I was wondering if you could make a video on plopping. It basically means you style your hair and add product when it is soaking wet, then let it sit in a T-Shirt/Microfiber towel for a bit before you finish drying. It is supposed to help with definition and formation of curl clumps (these individual curl strands).
i was thinking of doing a video similar to this where I do my entire routine upsidown and see how the curls look x
@@IsabellaDemarko That sounds cool! I have been experimenting with that too. Love how the curls look and the volume but it's thougher to get my oily scalp clean. Excited to see how it will turn out for you :D
YOUR HAIR IS GORGEOUS. 😍🎇
Girl you need to try using a lightweight leave in, cream and then the gel. I have 2C/3A hair but when I started transitioning my hair was your frizzy side. For your hair type maybe use a leave in spray then the tiniest amount of cream and then your usual gel 👍🏼 you’ll have great definition, volume and no frizz 🙌🏼
My hair used to be puffy, without bounce and definition. I recently switched to a completely natural shampoo and I banned conditioners (because they almost always contain quats) and oh my gosh, after a couple of weeks my hair has completely transformed. Actually, I came back to my natural hair, when it is washed only, in the most natural way possible, without any chemicals added to it. It feels light, bouncy and I see the individual strands without any added product. Only a gentle shampoo that's all it needs. Oh and oiling before shampoo (I use Complexe 5 from René Furterer and Amalaki oil from Blue Beautyfly). My hair is fine but I have a lot of it. Hope this helps.
I like the care and attention you give to this hair journey, and how it shows in your videos. Especially how you do that without going too far. I.e., you try to stay balanced and objective about so you don't lose yourself in the process. Not too much anyway, heh!
Omg I had no idea gel could help with frizz!!! Grabbing a bottle rn
I just saw you review of 6 months curly method and I must say I like your hair more on this video then after 6 months...
You can try to use a protein containing product of any kind. Like conditioner or curl cream. The protein will add the fragments back into your hair strands and help with frizz without gel.
i have the same hair texture and length and i recommend using any kind of oil and braiding it lightly to not interfere with the natural wave pattern but enough to give it definition so it won't be frizzy
Niiice! One comment: maybe squish even more the conditioner, like trying to rinse it out with water and squishing. It really makes a difference
Hi Isabella , have you considered doing the Brazilian keratin treatment again?
Hi Isabella, first of all sorry for bad english, it's just not my natural language. My wave pattern is 2b 2c kinda similiar to yours, maybe a bit thighter. I struggle with my hair a LOT. Like 2 weeks ago a had the best washday I have ever had and I used just leave in conditioner. My hair looked amazing without refresh even on day 3 and 4 and I was so happy that i finally found a good routine that fits me. But today i did the exact same thing and my hair is frizzy and undefined but very soft to touch. I figured out that I might have moisture overload. Maybe this is you problem too.
Your hair looks beautiful on both sides❤️
I really appreciate your hair care and so would like to suggest that you can add some garden cress seeds in your diet for a good hair growth.
you're so pretty and your hair (gel side lol) looks amazinggggg
Love love love your channel ❤
And if you want more volume and shape, layers would help
Hey, just watched all your videos, my hair are super fine and limp , they use to be really straight now they are getting weird frizz and gone really dry, I don’t use hot tools, my hairdresser recommended Oiai hair mousse for curly hair air dry, it’s amazing 🤩
I'd love a video of how you do your research on hair.
my hair looks like that when i dont use gel too! but sometimes i dont use gel if i want to my hair to dry quicker or if i feel lazy and want it tied up for the day. strangely enough when i take my hair tie off my hair is practically straight but it still clumps and less frizzy than usual. maybe this is what they mean when they say wavy hair is versatile
Your hair is looking so good ❤️
I’ve recently discovered the Denman brush, and I must say my curls are looking so beautiful! We have very similar hair and so I think it’ll be amazing for you!
Wow! The CGM is really working for you!
your hair is looking so much healther
I'm so glad that you took my aloe vera gel advice😍 even if i ment the pure aloe vera gel from an aloe leaf :D
I've known about aloe vera gel for hair for many years. all the things I try are mainly from my own knowledge and research. x
Wow 😮your hair has improved 👏😍
U can try mousse on dry hair for refreshing. Water gives me frizz so I like more dry refreshing with mousse and/or oils.
Love it. I have a similar wave pattern. This has been so helpful!
You look extra adorable in this vid
Your videos are so entertaining !! Love it. Hugs to you ♥️
