  • Style with me and ‪@CassandraBankson‬ as I teach her how to embrace her natural texture, how to style and treat her heat-damaged curly hair and show her how to style her fine, medium-length wavy/curly hair for the best volume and definition! We had such a fun time connecting with Cassandra, not only is her curly hair journey relatable, but her glowing energy is admirable. Her videos have helped my skin TREMENDOUSLY, so I hope I could do the same for her hair!! Make sure you follow her to see her journey and give this video a big THUMBS UP if you want to see updates!!

      Mell, I enjoy your collaborations so much.
      I have super fine, high porosity, thick, short wavy hair so I would love to see a someone with hair like mine. It seems all of the hair videos are with long hair which is easier to style than short (above the shoulders) hair. Or at least that's the case when I had longer hair vs short hair. Unfortunately, since my hair is so fine it doesn't look thick..ugh.
      I've also noticed every hair video is dealing with dry hair or ends. My hair is healthy and not dry so creams and leave-ins are usually too heavy causing my waves to straighten. But I need a leave-in to keep it healthy. I prefer healthy hair over nice looking hair but to have both would be nice too.
      Please, pretty please with a 🍒 on top do a collab with someone with similar hair to mine! 😘

Thank you so much for your insights, for your hairy fairy godmother wisdom, and for helping me embrace my natural hair! My waves are so appreciative, and I can’t wait to share updates with you and everyone else… I also can’t wait to dive into your skin care routine!

      When you said “Rat’s Nest” my eyes teared up. I am probably more than twice your age, and as a kid in the 60’s I was repeatedly told my hair looked like a “rat’s nest” and if I would just brush it or wash it more it would smooth & straighten out. I thought that phrase had died out with the invention of blow dryers & styling cream & big 80’s hair. I’m sorry you had to hear it as a kid. Of course your beautiful smile & infectious laugh tells me you have long since gotten over it! I’ve been watching Mel almost since the beginning and I have shown her to every stylist that has touched my hair for years. She helped me love my hair, and I really hope the two of you will do a video update so we can see how your hair is doing & what Mel suggests as your hair gets used to this new routine.

      Yes! I've been dealing with it for years and actually figuring out how to manage it without a topical steroid is part of my journey of discovering I actually have wavy/curly hair lol
      I've never used VERB products before, but if anyone is looking for a cheaper option, I cleanse my scalp with a concoction using Dr. Broner's tea tree oil castile soap and then apply aloe to my scalp and hair while it's still soaking wet. And every night I dampen my scalp and hair and apply more aloe until I need to wash. To help with irritation I add two drops of peppermint oil and a few drops of rosemary and a couple drops of lavender to kind of balance out the scent. The oils can be expensive, but I find they last a long time, so I can plan to buy them beforehand.

      @@lauralvw8445 Yes, wavy hair is not an insult! Just another kind of beautiful. There are some wonderful advantages to this type of hair too. Much faster drying and blowouts last forever, but unlike mostly-strait hair, it will actually hold a curl brilliantly when styled in rollers or a wet-set. It is kind of the best of both worlds in a way. You just need to know how to work with what you got.

Side note: most of my family had slightly wavy which has gone full curly as they aged so now they have to ask me what to do. So tempted to tell them to just brush it😂

    Since watching Mel’s scalp care video a long time ago, I do not have issues with my seborrheic dermatitis any more. I searched online for years (like 10 years) and tried so many things some even made it worse. Dermatologist visits with not much change. What I’ve learned from Mel has worked: never sleep with wet hair. Use a clarifying shampoo, nyasol shampoo sometimes, and always diffuse until my scalp is dry, exfoliate with a treatment or even a brush in the shower with conditioned hair. And most of all curly girl method ain’t the best for everybody….and definitely not for a scalp with seborrheic dermatitis!!!

    Aaaaahhhhh! I've definitely noticed Cassandra's curls have been popping lately! Knew she was becoming a fan of yours, but this collaboration is SO AWESOME! QUEENS!👑👸🎉🙌🙌🙌

    @karinac1999 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Oh my goodness. This was the best video! I love the look of aw in Cassandra's face every time she learned something new. It's so great to see that happiness when those curls started to pop. The things we don't know when we're starting this journey. Cassandra, your curls look amazing. Mell, you're an amazing teacher. ❤

  • @terrir3353
    @terrir3353 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    As someone who has both curly and wavy hair, this was amazing. Although I have watched a ton of your videos, I feel like I have learned new things in this one as well. (Bigger curl, bigger section, and a colander can work in a pinch 🙂)

    My older sister got made fun of for her curly hair so much when we were kids 😭 people said she was gross and didn't brush or wash just cause it wasn't straight... I recently realized I am wavy/less curly, glad to have videos like this to help figure things out!

  • @sejieneedscoffee94
    @sejieneedscoffee94 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    So happy to see Cassandra on this channel!!! I remember watching Cassandra’s videos when I was in high school. It’s amazing to see my favorite creators collaborating and embracing their curls!

  • @Gloria_Chav
    @Gloria_Chav ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Not done watching and I’ve learned so much. I came to this video from watching Cassandra’s about hair thinning/loss bc I have her exact same issues minus scalp acne. Literally such a treat, funny and heart lightening. Also blew my mind when Mell said air drying, your hair is flat and open to the elements… it’s what I do bc I’m intimidated by the time it may take to diffuse 😅 Thanks Mell. Diffusing tomorrow 😅😅😅

  • @catniphell

  • @lindathompson3660

  • @wendylees4382
    @wendylees4382 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Mel, I’d love to see you virtually guide/collab more TH-cam curlies. It gives us inspiration that you don’t have to be a hairdresser to get great results.

  • @joyindrelie6715
    @joyindrelie6715 ปีที่แล้ว +5

  • @trina9301
    @trina9301 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mell, I think this is your best video because you are walking Cassandra through the process with split screen and providing products for her hair type and beach lifestyle in the sun and water.
    Doing videos like this with people in different climates and weather conditions is informative. Thank you. Good Job!

  • @SunshineHappiness161

    @Psieks ปีที่แล้ว +4

    You and Cassandra are both people who have helped me a great deal with improving my self care and your collaboration is amazing. You're both so authentic and I've enjoyed getting to watch each of you.

  • @marcirussell6013
    @marcirussell6013 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I love that you were able to help her. What I would love to see you do is a video for people (like me) who have to wash their hair every day, but don’t have the inclination to use a tremendous amount of “stuff” in their hair and don’t have the time to do everything you’re doing, but still want their curls to look good.

  • @calpernia4613
    @calpernia4613 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Mind…Blown! Two of my TH-cam favorites in one video?! Yes please!
    I’m a newbie learning to deal with my wavy hair, too. Mel has been a great teacher. Good luck on your curly hair journey, Cassandra! ❤

  • @lucrecevonkasm
    @lucrecevonkasm ปีที่แล้ว +21

    This kind of tutorial was so useful thank you so much! Mell any chance you could do a tutorial like this with someone over 45 with wavy, thinning, much dryer hair... I believe it would help so many, especially your older audience who like myself adore you. XX ☺️

  • @susanabbott2769
    @susanabbott2769 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I have been watching Mell's videos for a while but must admit that this video was eye-opening. I learned the techniques (brushing and clipping) that I have watched but wasn't able to duplicate. Thank you both for this amazing, fun, educational video.
    Any chance that Mell might give brief consulations for determining products for viewers' hair? I would give my arm and leg for one. 😊

  • @joyspellmann4312
    @joyspellmann4312 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I had not owned a brush for over 40 years until I started watching you Mel! And I truly did not believe my hair would react like you said it would. It did, a very long time ago when I found you, and now I can’t not brush it. I tell people about your channel ALL the time!

  • @aurorafowlerful
    @aurorafowlerful ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I loooved this video! Watching someone new to the process walk through the steps was wildly informative, and gave me some ideas of what products I could add to my routine or replace my current ones with! Thank you again for helping us wavies!

  • @gerickson9552
    @gerickson9552 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Oh girl, you’ve got CURLS in there for sure!! It may take a little time to nurture them (while you stop using heat and straighteners), but stay the course and enjoy your gorgeous hair!

  • @aimster2084
    @aimster2084 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @TheWawa85
    @TheWawa85 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is the best collab I’ve ever watched! I’m so glad I searched for wavy hair gel in the search bar and this came up as the second result. I got told by many hairdressers over the years that because my hair was wavy it would always be frizzy and not once did I have a hairdresser tell me how to look after my waves so I brushed my hair multiple times a day, blow dried it and straightened it often because I hated the fluffiness and the waves never sitting nicely. Then I started doing the wavy girl method about 9-10 months ago but wasn’t having much luck at first until I got a curly cut done by my local hairdresser who happens to be a curly specialist. I was just using a curl cream from the supermarket until that point. Afterwards I got a better quality curl cream (Moroccanoil curl Definer) and Moroccanoil Curl defining mousse but didn’t try the mousse until a few weeks ago. Had been struggling to do refreshes with the mousse as I find I end up a sticky oily mess the next day so put my big girl pants on and brought a gel. Today is the first time I’ve done my full routine with a gel and I’m hoping the results are better 😊.

    Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you! When I tell you I have watched almost every single curly hair video there is it is not an exaggeration. I adore you both and I adore this collaboration. This single-handedly so inspiring for me personally. My son is getting married in less than six months and so I'm really trying to revamp now for something that will work on a very special day in the middle of the summer heat. Thank you so much to you both for your explanation, honesty and sharing your experiences and life experiences, humor and creativity!

  • @vanessaadams3140
    @vanessaadams3140 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Watched this video twice and implemented the techniques. I am already amazed at the difference in just one go and how much better my scalp feels. Build-up is gone and not sure I could ever say that before. Always watch videos but nothing ever seems right for me but when I sawCassandra’s hear is much like mine, I knew this was the right one. Thank you! Just turned 43 Friday and finally figuring out what to do with my curls.

  • @dominiqueagniel1406
    @dominiqueagniel1406 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Thank you for posting this! I had virgin straight hair (never colored, never straightened, never used a blow dryer) and I recently got a perm to get the wavy look like Cassandra’s and I have loved the results but have so much frizz! This is PERFECT!

  • @rachelp310
    @rachelp310 ปีที่แล้ว +2

  • @lenaboyer6981
    @lenaboyer6981 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    This was really fun to watch and so informative! Cassandra’s level of knowledge at the beginning of the video is about where I’m at now (just started researching curly hair yesterday) so it’s perfect timing 😊 You gave a lot of advice that I’m excited to try out!

  • @elizebeauty
    @elizebeauty ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I honestly can’t tell you how helpful this has been. Firstly I wanted to say Thankyou for making me laugh my head off seeing you both use a pasta drainer and sand shaker to diffuse 😂 Absolutely made my day but who doesn’t love a good improvisation!!💁🏻‍♀️
    Secondly, I have so much respect for both of you and I have followed Cassandra for some time and her knowledge has been so helpful to me and helped me with my skin.
    Mel I found you through your hair cut at home video and I’ve followed you ever since. Your tutorials and tips and tricks are so helpful. I’m really struggling with my hair because I can’t seem to find products that it likes but I’m also losing my hair so I’m desperately trying to hold onto what’s left 😫 I’ve been an organic hair oil every night and massaging into my scalp as it was recommended to me. Any other advice would be gratefully appreciated 🙏🏼
    Videos like these are so fab though because we can see how products and techniques work on different hair types in real-time and also watch you show how to trouble shoot and rectify things as you go along to which is something you rarely see in videos 🦋
    Again, Thankyou so much for making this and sharing it with us and I hope you have a wonderful day 😘💖🦋🌸🫶🏼
    xXx

  • @soniajaunita7541
