My left ear enjoyed this
You got left? I got right ear. Interesting. I am using airpods so I know I was using the right earbud in the right ear maybe you are using wired ones and had the wrong earbud in ur left and right ears?
@@kingslayer011 yea i got wired and its in my right ear
I've only got my right earphone in lol
left ear lonely
Your right, how annoying. Thanks for pointing it out. Im not sure what happed.
Tm
I only have 30% hearing in my right ear I thought my headphones was broken
no cap😭
My right ear really enjoyed the video :)
So I got curly hair already. But diffusing really defines my curls more. I appreciate this video
I think I have the same hair type as you mate judging by your profile pic, what do you ask the barber to get that style? I ask for short on sides and not much off the top but it never looks right they always fade it up to the top and the curls never overhang like you’ve got
@@rkb654 I ask for 2 on the sides and cut to the tip of my nose
@@cooperdinnebier3086 cheers bro
@@rkb654 no problem
Glad it was helpful!
Finally, a stylist who explains what the diffuser does and how it works, besides doing the demo. 👍 Btw, would you use no attachment, a concentrator or diffuser for our hair? Thank you!
glad you enjoyed the video. please can you explain what your hair is like so I can advise you ? I'm not sure I understand your question.
@@RossCharles Just the typical straight Asian hair. We never gave much thought about how to use the blowdryer, just dry using a concentrator but wondering if there is a better technique to create volume and keeping styles in place if using gel & hairspray products? Thank you.
@@spendingtimetogether8428 i wouldn't use gel for asian hair
@@spendingtimetogether8428 did he ever answer u 😂
@@justnwin1026 What do you suggest?
I want the frizz, so I am gonna do it like the people do in the 80's.
😂 Don’t know why this made me laugh so much
super helpful thank you!
You’re a very good teacher, thank you
Any alternatives to this product as it’s a bit hard to get? My hair is on the thicker and straight side.
Hi, Im planning on diffusing my already wavy hair to dry it up quicker will my hair become curlier than normal or would it just dry it without adding extra curls and volume? Thank you!
It should end up more curly. Sounds like a good idea ! let me know how you get on
@@RossCharles hey I tried it and it's great! It makes my curls much more defined
that is one stupidly handsome dude
im guessing its you
Lol it's him
Haha, I didn’t even catch that. I was gonna be like “he’s alright”
Lmao
Thank you so much and yes I sub
Does it really matter how expensive the diffuser is or is there like a big differnce in types of diffuser and results?? I got like 2b/2c hair. btw the vid was really great😄👍🏽
it doesn't really matter, but what is important is that it fits your hair dryer properly, some have a tendency to fly off while you are using them if they don't fit well. Thanks for liking the video !
@@RossCharles Thxxx💯
so i just to have put that thing on my head and i will get that?
Hi mate. For the diffuser, can I use it on quite thin straight hair to make it curly and stay in place? Usually blows in the wind and I want it fairly curly on top
I’d recommend after doing this process with the diffuser to sprinkle styling powder (sea salt powder) lightly tho! Too much on the hair will make it feel solid apply carefully!
apply strong hairspray afterwords once you have your desired look, then solidify the hairspray with a hairdryer.
Whats the setting of the hair dryer? High or low?
I usually have it on hi heat, just keep it moving !
can i do this with cantu product?
cantu product curls hair and adds volume
so does that gel go into wet hair? because most dont i think. Also should the diffuser touch the scalp / hair or can you leave some space?
Yes apply to wet hair. You can do both... not touching the scalp will prevent the hair from being moved into a different shape, good for naturally curly hair. However if the hair is naturally straight, it can work well to touch the scalp with the diffuser as the prongs will allow the hair to set around them.
what’s the length on top? is it thinned out or left at same length? every time I try this it doesn’t go anything like this.
The hair wasn't thinned out as such.. however it was textured. It can be done on lengths even as long as 10cm. However you may need to use strong hairspray and dry it in solid.
Does This work to Every type of hair
most hair types, just different effects
Will my hair stay up if i sweat??
If you have enough product on yes it should do. Although it will depend on how much you would sweat
Hey can I use curl activating mousse instead of the gel and then use the diffuser instead? If you could reply asap I would appreciate it
Thank you :)
Yes you can bro. You can also use a salt/sea salt spray. Only difference is that the gel will also hold the hair in place. The mousse and Sea Salt spray will give you more curl though.
@@kushsharma8375 appreciate it. Thank you
Yes of course! give it ago and let me know how you get on
Results?
I have to use low heat?
good question... use the heat setting that your scalp can handle.. If you are concerned about heat damage for your hair you can use a heat protection spray
I'm new into this stuff does diffusing my hair last long or it gets back to original quickly
nice sound quality btw
my fucking right air dude
How do I give volume to my hair?
I have *very* straight short, fine hair with absolutely no volume whatsoever.
Am I able to do that with a blow dryer? I have the Dyson supersonic.
Yes it is possible. use a good styling product to give support and use a brush or diffuser to give your hair elevation.
Ive had flat straight hair for a few years now and i want hair like your client however I do not have access to the gel as it’s not in stock and I live in the UK. I have tried using the diffuser but I’m not getting much success any tips? I use sea salt spray.
Thanks for your comment. We actually don't use this gel anymore, however we are now bringing one out in our own brand. It should be out in a couple of weeks and I ill send you a link to the site. Reg. tips, its really important that you prep the hair before you diffuse so I'm sure when you get the gel you will be fine. We also do a great sea salt spray which is great for diffusing too. Ill send a link for that also. Cheers
Ross Charles will it be available on UK Amazon? A delivery from America can take up to two weeks you see
@@oscarb9636 we're based in the U.K so no worries
If you don’t have curls you don’t have curls
Lol I’m the opposite, would love straight hair but I just get a curly frizzy mess. No idea why anyone would want curls 😂 so just need to work with what I have and try to make the best of it with these diffuser things
Can i make my straight hair to curly with this hair defuser?
how do you get curly hair just by squeezing it like that? When I try it my hair just stands straight up. Do I need longer hair?
Some of it is your hair type. Some people have naturally wavy/ curly hair. If your hair is straight, it might not be as easy. The squeezing helps the product lock in the curls I think
No idiot you actually need to have curly hair
@@wikz8480 it will always be fascinating seeing the extent at which people will make an ass of themselves on the internet for literally no reason. Chill out, man. I just don’t know anything about styling hair, that’s all :)
@@ostrava8904 I’m a ass for saying idiot ? Lmao if you get offended so easily the internet ain’t for you
@@wikz8480and now we’re gatekeeping the internet I guess haha. I think you’ll find most people won’t respond positively to being called an idiot believe it or not, im not one to take it personally, just pointing out it was uneccessary. Have a nice day man.
If i have fine straight hair will the diffuser make my hair wavy?
Yes it will aid your to achieve waves hair
Do you recommend high or low heat setting when diffusing?
I think higher heat will work better but obviously it’s not as healthy for your hair or scalp, so probably medium
@@Abxhj2939sjsj Ye although I only just started, I think medium heat + heat protectant seems the most effective while minimizing damage
you can use hi heat but keep it moving around. If you feel the heat too much on your scalp.. turn the heat down
Does your hair stay curly or do u have to do this after showers or something?
Chizzy Gaming Thank you for you’re comment, you would have to re-do the style again after washing.
Hey man what kind of product you are using with defuser
So if you have natural straight hair on top, does the diffuser still work to make it wavy/curly ?
Thank you for your comment, Yes if you make sure that you make the diffuser prongs wrap around the selected hair and make sure that you keep still on each section. You will most likely need to use more product too. That said if the hair is super straight then you may just get a slightly textured look. However keep practising it and the more you do it the better it will become. Also try AlterEgo Solo gel as an alternative to the one I used.
I hope that helps !
@@RossCharles what if you have slightly wavy hair. Will become really wavy or curly? Or will it just add texture
@@samuelmorris1236 In theory it should make it more curly. The diffuser exaggerates the movement in the hair. have a go and let me know how you get on !
i have naturally very straight hair sooo how could i get a look similar to this😓
How long do I have to blow dry it until it gets that dry look?
It all depends on the thickness of the hair, I would say on average no more than 5 minutes. You don't want to make it bone dry either. Hope that helps !
if you do this for like a month, would the hair start to become naturally curly
No i'm afraid not, it's temporary. You could try a perm if you wanted permenently curly hair.
Which diffuser was that?
Wait do you have to do this every time
Yes every time
What kind of product should you apply beforehand
It depends on the hair type, however in the video a gel was used. Always use water soluble products. suggestions could be Sojourn wet/dry gel or AlterEgo Italy Solo Gel.
Hair dryer name that was used in this video
abdullah tariq Thank you for you’re comment, the hairdryer used was a Colexia
Hi i have wavy hair i apply some coconut oil products in it when wet and its wavy when dry should i diffuse and style when wet or dry because when wet my hait would not be as wavy and im trying to get the wavy llook thanks
If your hair is wavy anyway and you want it to be wavy I wouldn't suggest that you should use a diffuser as it will make it more curly. Best to apply your product and leave to dry naturally
@@RossCharles but my hair will not naturally have volume and it always stays flat
Shaun 2510 Then use a diffuser if u want to keep the volume, it will curl it slightly more tho
What would you call the haircut needed for this. Like is it supposed to have fades on sides, hard part, longer in front, or what?
Messy top with a fade (skin tight or not) or just whatever number guard of your preference on the side. Either way works nicely with the style and if you want to add a hard part it would still look nice, too.
What if you don’t have any product
Hi Ross I had a question on how to style a hairstyle similar to this, is it possible to email you?
sure, go for it. or even a message on insta @ross_charles_1
Ross Charles I did!
Can we use anything besides gel?
Sure, you can also use curl creme www.hairdressersinyork.co.uk/product/curl-control-creme-30ml/
4:41 sorry what happened ??
Damn it I only have my left earbud rn wtf 😂
WEHT DRI VOLUUM
this guy looks like baker mayfield 😳
Don’t rub the hair
Proceeds to rub the hair
you are right there is a light rub of the hair. What I was intending was a more vigorous rub of the roots to shake the hair which would cause more of a frizzy look. perhaps on an other video I could explain more on this. thank you for your contribution
The“i cant get girls“ haircut
Did one of these guys screw your girl, mate?
@@Alex-rw9yj no bro. Those get scare of spiders and insekts like lil girls
How did I even get here, I was just watching German politics and... I have long hair!
