Thank you for this video. I’m 53 years old and have always hated my curly hair because it always looked messy and frizzy. This video has changed my life! I love my naturally curly hair now. No hair dresser has ever taught me any of these tricks…no more flat iron for me.
Same!! No hairstylest ever taught me the tricks either and I've always said "I don't know how to style my hair curly". You think ONE of them would of helped us! I am SO excited to try her tips - I can't wait to see how my hair turns out. I'm 45 and have always struggled too. Your comment has given me so much HOPE! 😊
@@lindsayc4332 - make sure you use clarifying shampoo every other week or so to clean up the “ buildup “ from all these hair products!
I actually prefer less defined hair with more volume and very small curl clumps and your "don'ts" just taught me some tips on how to achieve that. Thank you!!
Wooohooooo, I helped by accident!!! 🤣 I’m so glad!
Exactly. I love both curls do and donts
Yea, I love the looks here ... 9:19, 9:31, 10:47 ... the hair is soft and voluminous ... may be a bit of the 80s, but hey, I am a gal from that era, and I still loooove those styles.
I actually think that the contemporary super-defined curl pattern looks too harsh. But hey, to each our own, right?! 😉
@@ExtraordinaryLiving I used to style my hair like the "do's" section but I never had the volume I wanted, my curl clumps turned out too big and crunchy and it was way too much work to use different products and section the hair like that, only to have to do it all over again 4-5 days later. Nowadays I just apply some gel like she did in the don'ts section, scrunch it with a microfiber towel and dry it with the diffuser as she did in the don'ts. I now get soft hair with the balance of volume and definition that I like and it's half the work!
@@ExtraordinaryLiving I agree! Especially since my hair is very thin, when it's too defined it looks too thin. Gotta plump up the volume a bit and sacrifice some definition!
OH MY GOODNESS. You literally described exactly what I’ve been doing to my hair for 15 years. 🙈 these tips are GOLD. Thank you so much! Your curls are gorgeous! ❤️
Girl I think we all did the Don’ts for decades 🤣 thank you so much!!
Same here! I’m laughing as I see every step! Check, check, check 😬
One of the best and understandeble 😂 guides ever! Will give it a shot!
OMG, I feel you on the "professional" hairdresser just destroying your curls to give them more "volume". The worst is how expensive the whole thing turns out to be. Not every hair salon knows how to deal with curls, a lot of them find it "weird" that I refuse to blow-dry it because I don't want straight hair. That's when you realize they don't know how to style curly hair. It's annoying, they won't be honest about not knowing but they will for sure charge you a ridiculous amount of money for the disaster they did. I'd happily send your video to a lot of them 😂
You're a lifesaver!
💯😩
I would say most hairstylist don't have a clue...Most with a capital M. I have never received an actual quality, helpful haircut in my entire life😳 And I live in the Seattle area. I'm finally planning to go to a curly stylist this winter. Wanted to long ago but couldn't bring myself to spend the money🥴 I cut my own hair but it's so much work and I'm too busy. I'm excited to see how much having a curly hair enhancing cut will give my hair an advantage of styling more effectively🤩
Tip: go to a salon that specialises in curly hair. I went to one last time I cut my hair and it looked so cute, they even recommended me products I currently use right now to curl my hair.
Would you believe I know some stylist who can give a great curly hair cut but still don’t understand the styling process? I have to remind my stylist every time I don’t want a blow dry before I leave the salon. Nor do I want to use any of the products they use on other clients. Sometimes it almost seems I have offended her/him.
I always get anxiety getting my hair cut. They always want to blow dry it and poof it out and put a tiny bit of serum in it and I'm always like, I'm good, I'm just gonna run out here with soaked hair, thanks! 🏃♀️
I do the "you do colour and cut and I do the styling" at the salon.
Other guests usually give me strange looks, but I don't care.
Uh… excuse me??? You, my dear, are AMAZING! Thank you for sharing your wealth of curl wisdom!! I am 55 and just this summer started trying to figure out how to manage my curls - been straightening my whole LIFE! I learned SO freakin much in the past ten minutes. THANK YOU!!!
Only another curly lady can know how life changing this video has been for my hair! That moment when it works and you just explode into a cloud of glitter ✨ I thought diffusers were a myth until this came into my life. Thank you for sharing the knowledge 💛
I love the line "explode into a cloud of glitter" that's EXACTLY how I felt when I learned from the "Curls Gone Wild Salon" here in AZ.
Oh my goodness this is so helpful! I’m still figuring out having curly hair. Last fall I began growing out my hair after having really short hair for seven years. Curls! There were curls! I had some curls as a toddler but by age five I had stick straight hair. Now I’m learning how to have curls and I’m 62 years old! I love it!
I am going to try these tips and this video gave me the courage to try diffusing again. Oh! AND I decided to stop coloring my hair! BIG learning curve here!
I’ve blown my naturally curly hair straight my whole life only to have it turn to frizz when the Fl humidity hit. Now at 71 I’m just learning how to embrace my curls and it has really been a process! This video has been a big help!!!
Girl! I am 45 and I am STILL struggling with how to style my curly hair! Your video may just be my lifesavor! I'm trying it today 😊
Life saver 😭 your “don’t”s have been my entire routine my whole life and that explains everything 😭😭😭
I was being lazy, taking shortcuts, and doing a lot of these “don’ts”! Thanks for the great videos. Seeing a huge improvement immediately (as I recently stopped straightening)! 😍
That’s awesome!!!
This helped me realise why my once 2b/2c and some 3a pieces were so stringy and flat, I thought it was the products but it was me and my techniques. Thank you so much 😊
I’m glad it helped!! Styling techniques really do make all the difference! 💛
Oh. My. Goodness. I am 42 years old and have lived with frizzy, unruly, unpredictable 2b/c curly hair my entire teen/adult life. Usually putting my hair up as to not deal with it! I have I have learned soooo much from this video and am so excited to try these techniques and help my curls have life!!
Same here! How has it been going for you so far?
I followed this today and am 56 years old with a lifetime battle with having naturally curly hair look messy and stringy and frizzy. I love how you don’t try and sell any specific product but educate about the procedure! And you don’t talk and talk about things that aren’t relevant or even remotely interesting but rather you drop helpful hints and suggestions through out the whole thing! Thank you!
I'm very new to the curly hair method and the stuff you've pointed out is exactly the kind of thing that people DONT talk about in other videos but I've been doing them for my first 2 washes and lost all the beautiful curls that started to form !
Thank you so much for this video, you look absolutely gorgeous 🥰 !
I've had stick straight hair for almost five decades! I was in a coma with covid & nearly died. I lost about 75-80% of my hair during recovery (post-coma), and it came back in EXTREMELY curly. I know this is not a unique story, but it sure had been a huge adjustment for me! I'm 49 years old, and I know NOTHING about styling these (now) MASSES of curls! So I was very happy to find your channel! 😂 thanks so much for all of the helpful, informational content! ❤
Um, it certainly IS a unique story!
You're very gifted at curl-styling. Thanks so much for this video. It's so helpful!
I’m 65 years old, and you are teaching me so much! For years, I kept a brush blow dry style and struggled with straightening until I had thyroid trouble and my hair started thinning. Then, I went to a stylist who encouraged me to embrace what I thought was just enough wave to keep my hair always messy. I didn’t realize that I had actual curl until I got a layered scrunch and go cut, which gave great volume to my thinning hair. My curls always look wonderful when I leave the salon, but I could never get it to look like my stylist. I didn’t realize that I was causing my messy frizz by doing so much wrong, Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Question: How do you fix the squished, or matted bedhead the next day after making these beautiful curls?
Most well explained curl clump video yet! Diffusing the roots first makes sense yet that’s not how I’ve ever done it. Trying it out today and will update comment! Thank you so much for sharing!
Actually i love somehow the „don‘t“ outcome. It reminds my of the 80‘s and Olivia Newton-John in „Grease“😅❤️
YUP I totally see that 🤣
Your hair always turns out beautiful! It will be a year in July since I started transitioning. UHHH! It seems my hair never turns out right. FRUSTRATING!!!
You’re a life-saver! I’ve been struggling with my hair since quarantine, no salon visits and letting my hair grow out. I’ve got curls again, but I’d forgotten how to deal. These tips are gold. You’ve just gotten yourself a new subscriber 😊
You have given me the inspiration to actually try to wear my hair curly again. I have been blowing it out straight and flat ironing it for years and it’s getting old. My hair is dry and the frizz is terrible so thanks for the tips cuz now I know what NOT to do!
Best description I’ve seen so far on any channel, thank you so much!
Absolutely spot on. The best curly hair video out there. 🎉bravo!
This is so helpful. I don’t know how many videos I’ve watched and I can’t believe how many products I’ve purchased to try to tame the frizz. I just needed the basic technique and you provided that. Simple and effective. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your profoundly GENIUS curly hair tips!!!! I can't WAIT to try them out & change my old washed up routine into an actually consistently successful one, thanks to you ❤!! I really appreciate the no nonsense, easy to follow instructions. I'm definitely subscribing for more! Keep up the good work 👏
Thank you thank you!!! I’ve literally been doing all the dont’s my entire life. At last I’ve learned the correct way. Thank you. You have beautiful hair!
OMG. I've been searching for answers about my hair problems, specifically frizz, and you've literally showed me the reasons why. Also, we have the same face shape and curl type so I am considering the layered haircut you did on one of your videos. Thank you so much! 💖💖💖
You are great at teaching about how to handle naturally curly hair!
Myhair went from board-straight to very curly in 6 months. My PCP said it was my endocrine system. For whatever reason I am now curly haired, I am trying to figure out what to do with it. You have come to my rescue & I appreciate you very much! Today Im going to try your techniques & cross my fingers.
God bless you for sharing!❤
I don’t think I’ve ever looked forward to wearing my hair curly like I am right now! You left me blown away with your tips 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼😭💖 im about to go wash my hair right now just to try all this!
Thank you! I came across this video while searching for updos for my hair this weekend for my daughter's wedding. This has changed how I move forward with my natural curls. WOW Appreciate you sharing ❤
Just discovered your channel. Thank you so much for the simple put very understandable information!!! I have been trying to understand my hair for years and years now and your information makes the most sense of anyone I have listened too!
I can't wait to try this technique. Your curls are fabulous!
This is one of the most helpful videos. Thank you for showing right vs. wrong methods in sequence.
Omg! I can see why I have curl problems! 😝 I’m eating your videos and I got my cake beauty kit ready to practice all of your tips! Thank you so much!!!! 🙏🏻
I have been doing curly girl method for a year, the bad part is I was putting in all my products in the shower with my hair upside down and defusing the same way. You taught me so much today. You are the first person who has been able to explain how to finger coil and use the denmon brush correctly. Thank you . I cant wait to use what you have taught me
I am so glad to help!!! 💛
Same! Kind of relieved I don't have to do everything in the shower now trying to keep all the products and water out of my face!
Thank you ! Your curls are GORGEOUS!
You give tips no other curly channel does. Much appreciated! I’m saving this video, thanks 😊
Oh wow, thank you so much!!! I definitely try to make sure I share what works that other curlies might not know yet! xx
I can't wait to try this technique.
Amazing! Can’t wait to try this(I haven’t left a comment in literal years so that shows how much I appreciated this). ☺️
Great video! Really helpful! 👍
I've recently started watching some of your videos and I appreciate your demos so much. I work with special needs children and for 7 years, I have worn my hair in a pony tail breaking the Mohawk section terribly.
Recently I decided to brave the craze and start styling my hair like it was prior to pony tail crazy.
I've subscribed!! Enjoy your tips please keep sharing. My naturally curly hair needs you!! 😉
Your tip about sectioning before drying 🤯
And not touching the diffuser to uncast curls💯 THANK YOU💕
You comments were so funny. I appreciated the honesty. I realize some of my mistakes.
Thank you. I have watched many videos on curly hair. This one helps a lot. ❤
This was very helpful.
I may have been doing most of those don'ts!
Thank you so much!! I'm just now discovering that my hair is truly curly and learning how to wear it natural. This video is so helpful.
This video was a god send! My whole life I've wanted my curls to look like yours and after watching and learning, my hair finally looks great! I'm going to have to work on my drying technique as I think I paid too much attention to my roots and by the time I moved on to the rest of my hair, it was pretty much dry and really crunchy (I'm sure I used too much product) BUT I'm still very happy with a first attempt at properly drying my curly hair.
I have been trying to get my curls to clump for a few months :D I was doing MOST of the "Don'ts" you talked about. I am excited to try it the correct way!
my hair used to look like the don’t result every day... i thought that’s what it was supposed to look like 😅😅😅
Girl, ME TOO 🤣🤣🤣
@@TheFitCurls haha thank goodness it’s NOT
Thank you for your video! I’ve been styling my waves the opposite all these years! I will definitely style my hair your way in the future. Very excited it give it a go!
Wow! Thank you so much. I learned a ton from this video. I have been doing all the “don’ts” for ages. I tried your techniques and my hair looks better today than it has since pre-pandemic 😀 I found your channel while googling for honest reviews of LusBrand products so that video was very useful too. Based on your other videos I have realized I can use products I already own and just change techniques. Thank you for saving me money and helping me enjoy my curls again ❤️
I see it 3 times!!! It's fantastic! I did all those don"ts!!
Thank you for showing me all the things I was doing wrong!! I love your tips to get great curls. I haven't had long curly hair for 20 years so I need your help!
Thank you ❤ been looking for a step-by-step.
❤ I have to comment! I happened to come across your channel, and I just love your curly do's and don'ts tutorial! Thank you. And your wit and facial expressions kept me drawn! 😊
Thank you for the great tips. I’ve been straightening & flat ironing my curls for years. I want to try getting my curls back. I will be checking out the rest of your videos.
A like, a comment and a subscribe for breaking down the process in detail, and showing the different outcomes of (seemingly) small styling variations. Some women even use the Don't techniques (it seems to be a good compromise for thin hair, sacrificing some definition for the sake of volume), but now they understand what they are doing.
Thank you so much Angela!! I recently discovered your videos and they’re so helpful and I love your channel! Also I literally just bought the Cake mousse yesterday just because of you❤️
Calina George oh my gosh thank you so much!! That means the world to me - I’m so glad they’re helping you! Enjoy the mousse - it’s my Holy Grail!
WOW! Seriously you have beautiful hair - even the "wrong" technique still looks great! Thanks for all the tips!
I have absolutely done all the donts for 30+ yrs! Your tips were easy to follow and got great results the first time i tried them! Thank you so much for making simple but fun videos for us to follow!😊 10:15 10:15
Thank you - I have similar hair to yours and have been straightening it for about 30 yrs !! I’m embracing my curls now & your tips are fab xx
Welcome to the Fit Curls Family and to the curly community!!! I’m happy to help xxx
I needed the tip on sectioning off to distribute evenly !! ALSO I too use the Camille Rose curling gel and it is fantastic. I've had it in my arsenal for years. I just found your channel & I feel confident you'll help me finally find my way with my hair. Thank you SO much !
Your curls are what I have wanted!
Thank you SO MUCH! This is exactly what I needed.
This video is the bomb! Thank you!!!
Love this video! I was cringing a little bit as I was watching all the don’ts lol
Oh man, I was cringing filming them!! 😂 glad you enjoyed it!!
I can't wait to try this!
I am a formerly stick straight turned curly in my 30s curly girl with a mix of curl types much like yours. A prayer answered, but talk about clueless! You should have seen me when half of my hair was stick straight and the other half curly. 😱 I've watched countless curly girl videos and you are the only one I relate to because we have the same curl types, same hair length and I am FINALLY learning from you! This video is pure gold! I'm a new subscriber and I notice you haven't posted in awhile, but you do have plenty for me to catch up on. I would love to see where you are today. Are you still enjoying those beautiful curls? What are you up to? Heck, I'd even be interested in some fitness tips for middle aged disabled women who can't do a lot, but aren't willing to be fat and flabby! I love your spunky personality and hope you will continue uploading content! I understand that you can only do so many hair videos. That's okay! If I can embrace what I prefer to call early retirement (disability is so negative!), you can embrace your next adventure! Best wishes to you! Thank you for saving my hair!!!!🥰
Awesome advice!
So helpful! Thank you 😁
These are really helpful tips! Thank you!
This is good advice for any texture.
Great video. Very entertaining, funny and education. Good job!
Good tips here! I prefer volume over defined curls as well. Your hair is gorgeous.
The best advice I have ever seen.
You are crazy!! Blow drying and straightening my hair takes like 15 mins top!! Styling my natural curls TAKES FOREVER.... But yes, I never knew if it was going to look cute or not. So I'm excited to watch this...
Great video, I'm a wavy newbie and this was so helpful. thanks
Thank you for these tips!!
Yup, was doing most of “don’t” steps. Very helpful!
Glad to hear this helped! I know all about doing the “don’ts” 😂
As a guy who recently decided to grow my natural curls, this is extremely gold content
Thanks so much for doing this video. You are awesome!
SPECTACULAR advice! I’ve struggled with my naturally curly hair ever since my 50’s or so (hormonal changes?), and never understood what I was doing wrong. Turns out, pretty much everything I was doing was wrong! Now I can’t wait to try out all the new techniques! Thank you!
UPDATE: just ordered every tool and most of the products you recommend through your links. I’d always used a 1875 W hairdryer and thought it was the most powerful they made, and never used the diffusers. But time for change! Lots of it arriving same day (today)!
UPDATE: Ok, this takes practice to master. So far, I’m looking like a Medusa!
What products are best for curly hair? I haven't find a good one. Thank you!
Your tips are amazing!
Look at her caption there list what you need
Extremely helpful!!!!!!❤
Kinda love both results 😂❤️
I've finaaaaally found someone with the same hair type as me 😭😭😭 just two days ago I did the "big chop" and I have nooooo idea what to do with my short hair. But I LOVE it and can't wait to learn from you 🥺
Thank you very much !
I followed you tips and made a big difference.
Just found this video. My curl type is similar to yours. Thank you so much for posting these helpfil tips! 💯🔥🔥😇
I am so happy I came across your video! I have wavy/ light curly hair but never wear it naturally because I never knew how to style it and actually like it. I tried your suggestions and technique this morning and OMG!!! A little light frizz but overall I am blown away!! I didn’t have a hair oil to use so I used my hair serum but think it weighed down my hair just a little. Lesson learned but still I am so so happy!!
Im yo glad to see a video like this. I have the 3hair curls u do. You have inspired me 🙂. Thank you so much for showing me this video!
Your hair looks great. I'm going to try your tips 👍 Thanks for sharing
You are a Jem! Hair guro for curly hairs! ❤️
Actually, I like the “do not” hairstyle way better - cause, that's how curls look natural, what is pretty charming
Literally my hair!! These tips are invaluable thank you! Also are there any tips on what type of cut to ask for at the hairdressers?
Awesome tips!! Yes, a hair stylist did the same with the diffuser on my curls. Eek. I was cringing!!
It hurts SO MUCH 😭🤣 at least we know how to fix it, right?!
Great step-by-step!
Wow learned a few things! Can’t wait to try them
Yayyy keep me posted! xx
Excellent tutorial!
Would love to see what it looks like when air dried with this process as well as that's what I mostly do
Thank you so much! I tried your technique and it worked. I'm 62 years old and never knew how to style my curly hair! Thanks for your video!
