Right?! I just love her hair pattern so much. Mine is the most uneven I've ever come across. It's changed recently and one side is 3a curls and the other side and the back are both 2a waves. It looks absolutely ridiculous 😭
Girl, same!!! Most my family and friends have that typical straight Asian hair. Growing up I always thought it was normal to just brush my hair out even when it was dry. That’s just how everyone else did their hair. I would just have a huge fluff and frizz that I hated. I opted mostly for a bun or a long braid because it looked more tame or manageable. I went as far as straightening my hair almost everyday for almost 10 years, as well. I noticed my hair was thinning, not to mention, severely heat damaged. That’s when I looked into wearing my hair natural again and found all this info on how to take care of my textured hair. Now I love my curls/waves and hardly straighten my hair. I think my hair looks so much better and lively now.
What exactly does Asian hair mean? I mean in western Asia there are a lot of peoples with gorgeous curly hair. Especially in countries like Iran, Iraq, and so on, but also my Indian friend, who started to grow out his hair when all the hairdressers closed here in 2020, turned out to have really pretty curls at the ends of his hair. So who exactly is meant with "Asian"? Only East Asians? Or also South East Asians? I feel like using "Asian" to only refer to a part of Asians is a bit exclusionary or at least geographically inaccurate.

I’ve always loved how your hair looks on your insta and I finally started to copy your routine (I noticed we have the same hair type, and I always thought I had just frizzy and puffy hair) and the results are GORGEOUS!!!! THANK YOU!!
Thank you so much! As a teen with wavy hair I’ve absolutely died trying to keep my wavy hair in an orderly fashion. Now I don’t have to pull out the flat iron when I’m having a bad hair day.
I never knew you didn't have to reapply 😭😭 I've had wavy hair ever since I was young but my mom never knew how to take care of it so she treated it like straight...but now I'm 15 and I'm desperate to make it look good and not damaged looking😭😭
Thank you so much!! I have been struggling with my day 2 and 3 hair. It's always a frizzy mess. I'm still trying to learn what my curls need. Somedays it's wavy others, I get more defined curls. Thanks for all your tip, I'll try this out!
my hair is so similar to yours, i would just brush it out when it was dry because it was frizzy and itd become all puffy , this video has helped me so much, thank you!
I know this is late, but I use a silk hair bonnet that has an elastic headband bit… I sleep crazy too and that seems to stay put! I personally don’t like silky sheets and didn’t want an odd pillowcase so this option was better (and cheaper) for me 😊
Thank you! I have curly hair and I always disliked it when TH-cam and other people didn’t understand when I said “reset” my hair. Glad someone else knows how to do it without fully showering each time. Water bottle. Noted. Thank you sm! I subscribed :)
I have more 3b-3c curly hair but your tips have been helping with my hair,beautiful ♡♡Also what I do at night,sometimes bonnets or buns hurt my head, silk scarfs dont stay on my hair so I took a big silk scarf and a square cushion pillow and tied it around the pillow and that's my silk pillowcase 😂
i have curly hair and i have been doing this method for a month and it's been a complete GAME CHANGER for me!! i really want to buy a water spray bottle since i have just been dunking my whole head in the sink 😭
Yout the first person i know that has hair exactly like me I have wavy hair but always wanted straight hair I have a curtain bangs and a old bangs i hide on with a small hair clip I have the same hair color as you and hair type n haircut Tysm you learned me how to style my hair i was so desperate to find someone that show it how and has the exactly same hair type as me ! Also your so beautiful :) wavy hair rlly suit you!
cheap satin pillowcases actually work great, as long as its slippery to the touch. ive tried real silk and its honestly the same as my 8 dollar satin one.
okay so I grew up in a household where my whole family had straight hair, and as a kid I always straightened it until it became a habit. fast forward to now, I went overseas to see some cousins and they were shocked to see how dead my hair was, I never really realised until they mentioned it. i always sort of new my hair wasn’t straight but I’m pretty sure I have wavy hair! I just wanted to say that after trying this my hair looks gorgeous, usually my natural hair looks like a bed head but this really helped!!! thank you so much, and I hope I can get hair like yours in the future because it is so pretty ❤
Your hair looks gorgeous! I have curly/wavy hair also and never knew how to restyle it so thank you. The only problem is I don’t have time to do all of this. If you have any other techniques that take less time please share. :)
I was born with super curly hair, grew up with a wavy hair, and now with the similar situation as yours. I don't take care of my hair. it takes years to grow. and now, I get major hairfalls, resulting my hair in thinning out as well. my curls basically don't take shape anymore; only slight curves at the end of my hair strands. thank you for this video! I'm gonna try it out in the morning 💞💖!
Anyone with textured hair I would strongly recommend not applying water everyday because when ur hair gets wet the hair cuticle swells and then de-swells when drying which is extremely damaging for the hair because its like if u were to constantly stretch something it would end up getting weaker and weaker so u want to be exposing ur hair to water as little as possible. I usually (for anyone wondering how to get back definition without water) gently separate the hair to finger detangle and get out any hair that would've shed out then I apply a light layer of oil smoothing, scrunching then smoothing then do the same with aloe vera gel then the same with more gel then I use a small amount of aloe vera gel to smooth over the frizz on the roots. U may not get back AS much definition as with water but u get some back and its a LOT less damaging.
Hello! Im new to everything and am FINALLY going to start my wavy hair journey. Like you, I ALWAYS straightened it. I hated and never let my hair down unless it was straighten because I was so embarrassed and hated how it looked. I had no idea how to take care of it and I am finally going to start to with your help! I watched your wavy hair tips video already. I was looking at your description for this video. Sorry if this is a dumb question. So, you only used a prewash? You didn't use an "actual" Shampoo? & did you use the two leave in hair conditioners mentioned in the description at the same time? I would love if you did a day 1 hair wash video & talked about the steps!
My hairdresser told me to try to avoid comb, only use comb with careful, and if you can get a wood comb it will be better. Right now i don't use too much the comb, im just using it before shower and a lil bit after shower, but then its all finger work.
I hope you found a good satin pillowcase by now, I got one from dollar tree and it does the job. Just in case someone out there doesn't have a lot of money ❤
I'm almost 18 years old and I'm just now finding out how to take care of my hair ,due to no one teaching me. Btw this video was very helpful . I have wavy hair also. Thanks for the vid
i miss my wavy hair. my mom is always in control with my hair and she always wanted my hair to be reborned so now ny waves are gone. one day when i graduated im going to shave my head so my curls will grow again :)
@@Hangtw yessss it dried amazing !! Thank u so much for showing the curl technique I can't believe I've never seen it doing this tomorrow and getting that product !! Is that your fav/go to product for curls my hair is sooo dry/damaged
At the moment it is! But when my hair was super dry and damaged, especially at the beginning when I started my journey, I had to use several more products! (One leave-in wasn’t enough to moisturize). If you haven’t seen it yet, I recommend watching “wavy tips I wish I knew sooner” it has a list of products I use in the description and I share what I use/ how I use it! You can try this one first and if it’s not moisturizing enough, try adding pre-wash like olaplex no 3 and another leave-in like olaplex no 6
I finally found someone with the same hair pattern as me! I noticed you had layers in your hair and it looks so nice, what kind of style did you ask your stylist for?
Trust you should wear a Bonet to sleep that's literally all I do when I sleep and my hair Literally lasts all week I wash it Sunday and it lasts all the way to Friday and if I need a refresh all I do is put a oil and if your just lying around the house you can keep it on all day that's what I do and I literally have no split ends coz of this and if you do have any friz it usually calms it down.
Hmmm, try squeezing out the excess water (it might be weighing your hair down and that's why there's no volume up there) or use some clips to hold the pieces up while it's drying
I have so similar hair! Can you please tell me what haircut you have because I feel like part of the reason mine is a constant mess is because my hair cut doesn't co-operate with my hair type.
I got my satin pillowcase on Amazon from bedsure! I really like it, also I started wrapping my hair in a silk scarf and it wouldn’t stay on my head either until I secured it with at least 4+ Bobby pins. Now I sleep much more comfortably
My hair is between wavy and curly but when I sleep and wake up it looks CRAZY I use a silk pillowcase but usually I just put it up in a scrunchie but no matter what I do my hair is a complete mess in the morning so yeah 😭
2 inquiries: How often do you shampoo your hair also? And my hair is shorter cause I roll with that more; I was wondering if you know a finger roll technique for shorter hair (besides doing it the same)? This is sick advice
hey! i have wavy/curly hair, and i have to wear it up for work and i work about 6-8 hour shifts. my hair loses its curl pattern and gets all mess up from wearing it up and its so frustrating because then i have to re-wash and style it each time after work. my top layer gets the worst because its more wavy than curly so it loses its shape easier than my bottom layers which are much more curly. i hate having to wash my hair so much and i hate re-wetting and applying more product because i feel like it gets gross feeling from that. any tips?
Cowash every other day is what I used to do. I had to get it wet and washed everyday because I worked as a wastewater treatment operator. It is that gross of a job. You could if you don’t work in a disgusting environment just keep it up for a few days a week or learn different up styles. Like braids and such. So you’d don’t have to constantly wet it. I suggest switching around the style so you don’t get traction alopecia or hair breakage. That happened to the sides of my hair because I slicked it back while my hair was wet. Then when hair dries it shrinks while still in the hair band and snap! Off it goes. Good luck.
I'm so happy to find someone with a very similar hair pattern to me! So annoying when one side always turns out less defined than the other
So happy to have you here 🥰 and right! There’s always a side that looks better 😂
yessss
That’s because you probably sleep on that side more!
FOR REAL. One side is Gucci and the other is dollar general lmao
Right?! I just love her hair pattern so much. Mine is the most uneven I've ever come across. It's changed recently and one side is 3a curls and the other side and the back are both 2a waves. It looks absolutely ridiculous 😭
