      I'm not Mell but I've been following her for a long time and I'd say maybe try silk hijabs or satin head wraps bcoz it prevents frizz as opposed to cotton or wool head wraps. And if those are too expensive or hard to find just try silk/ satin scarfs or bonnets before putting on ur hijabs or hats. Hope that helps

    • @zhrae9992
      @zhrae9992 Рік тому +30

      @serenity8824 thank you so much. I put satin or similar head cover before the scarf but I thought a video with multiple tips for ppl covering their hair would benefit many.

      I just started trying to do my hair curly after straightening it for 10 or 15 years. I do color my hair every 4 to 5 weeks. Im not sure on porosity but I think it's high porosity. My hair gets wet pretty easily in the shower but it seems to dry really really fast. I have just been putting a cream and a gel in my hair all about curls high definition gel crunchless ultra hold Is the gel I use and all about Curlls bouncy cream touchable soft definition. I would like for my hair to look earlier than it does I have a few strands in the back that are just strings and they won't curl. Do you have any products you can recommend for me or a video I can watch for starting this curl journey?

    Wow, Color me highly impressed. I didn't learn how to take care of my curly hair til I was 40 when there were very few curly hair specific products on the market but the curly girl method saved me. I grew up with the straight hair culture. I am almost 59, and I still learned something new to try. I bought some products to try today from your many videos I watched today. I get a lot of compliments on my hair at this point previously, but my hair is changing as I age and it isn't the same as when I was 40 or even 50. I hope in the next few weeks I can refine, define and improved on what I have. Thank you Mell. I found you from Casandra Bankson's video.

    At 55 I've lived thru ALL the crazy curly hair struggles, the flat iron urges, silicone build-up, haircuts taken too short because the stylist didn't take my curls into account, and now a changing curl pattern due to "The Change".😮‍💨 But this video gave me SO many tips, new tricks and corrections that I'm looking forward to washing and styling my hair tomorrow. I have new hair products in my Amazon cart and I'm blocking off tome to watch a few of your "DIY haircut" videos.😎
    Thanks for the refreshing take on curly haircare ans all the fantastic info packed into this video!!!❤

    • @romilly99
      @romilly99 3 місяці тому +1

      I hear you, at nearly 59! I wasn't xurly as a child, then it got thicker and it was always brushed and just straight and coarse. Then it went mad after I had it cut for the first time ever at 18 and turned into a huge Bush...... cur the Hair Bear Bunch and Crystal Tips comments. Coloured it. Shaved it. Grew it. Cut it. Straightened it with big fat rollers .......
      I gave up fighting it and had no idea what to do with it at all so it has spent the past 20 years wetted every morning and put on top of my head. I know it forms ringlets with products but it's all changed again because I stopped colouring and I now have white hair with some old colour in!! I love Mell because it's refreshing to see curl knowledge and enthusiasm. Like you, I watched her self-cut stuff and am going to let a friend of mine have a go ....... what can possibly go wrong?!!!!

      i have 2c-3b hair, and refreshing with a gel works much better than a cream. i take a little gel, wet my hands, rub them together, and smooth over my hair. also, try sleeping with a soft scruchie loosely around your hair at the top of your head. that works well for me bc a bonnet never stays on.

    • @helsbels
      @helsbels Рік тому +1

      @@maya-mu3ce this worked great when my hair was longer but it's shoulder length now, so it stretched them out 😂 had reasonable success today, only doing half my hair in a satin scrunchie overnight, mind!

    Hey Mel,
    Nearly two years ago I discovered you ….and UA-cam 😳 ….when I needed help on whether to let my hair go naturally curly after nearly 50 years of wrestling my curly 3b hair into submission including tight pony tails, plaiting, chemical straightening, blow drying and hair straighteners. I HATED my hair and was always embarrassed by it. I had NO idea what the word hair ‘product’ meant and I had no idea that I had ‘curly’ hair!! I know that sounds impossible but because I had no idea how to care for my hair including always brushing it when dry…auuugghhh…frizz frizz and more frizz, no products …just trying to get it as straight as possible in order to have my hair look half way normal and manageable. Maybe it’s a generational thing?? (I’m older that your mum) and also because I live in Australia and we don’t have a huge, long established curly hair culture or community like in the US or Canada for example. Therefore our range of hair products that I see you guys and others using is considerably less along with actual hairdressers who know how to cut curly hair properly. BIG problem!!
    I know of only 3 hair stylists in Melbourne, Victoria that advertise themselves as being actual curly hair stylists (2 of which have recently undertaken Rezo cutting courses ). The curly hair stylist I am currently seeing every four months charges a whopping $300 (AU)…about $204(USD) for just a cut, wash and style (no colour)!!
    I am now actually enjoying my hair being curly and longer and it’s certainly healthier. I wear big funky earrings and sometimes strut big colourful headbands which I feel reflect my personality better than when it was cut very short and styled straight. I’m also in the process of growing my colour out which is an interesting journey in itself!!
    Anyway…hope your not nodding off coz this is quite a thesis!! Haha.
    Anyway thankyou for your engaging, humourous, intelligent and detailed vids which have helped me greatly in keeping me motivated and informed on my curly hair journey.
    I would love love love to see you cutting and styling more mature (50+ yrs) women’s curly hair (grey/transitioning to grey) in your future videos if possible. That would be amazing!!
    Thanks again Mel ✌🏼

Happy anniversary 🎉🎉. You really are my favorite curlfriend to watch because your videos have always been the more informative. You get nitty gritty and scientify and teach us the ins and outs of the curl. Thank You Guido seesters for all your work. Keep up the great work! ❤

    I’m in my 40s & had been doing a modified CGM since my 20s when I was gifted the original book. At the time it was helpful, but, SHOCKER, my hair’s changed a bit since then…. For years it’s never really done what I wanted anymore. I needed to change SOMETHING, but I didn’t know what, & then I found your videos & started, like, SHAMPOOING & BRUSHING & all these things that had seemed insane to me for years. And Mel. MEL. For the first time IN MY LIFE I can rock awesome day 2 & day 3 hair!! I always thought that was just gonna be impossible for me, but nope! I’ve even decided to start growing it long again, because I think I can actually DO it now!
    Seriously. Your channel’s been life-changing. Y’all rock.

What started as pandemic boredom for me (lol) has turned into a passion to really understand my curly hair. The fact that you have curly hair AND you are a hairstylist is amazing. Plus it helps that our curl type is very similar. 😊 Thank you! Looking forward to watching more videos! I’m going to look through your videos now for tips on making the style last longer and how to best refresh.

    I tried this, with different products though. This brushing method works. Thank you so much for sharing and caring for us curly haired ppl. I truly appreciate it.
    I didn't realize before that brushing my hair in a downward angle is just making it flat. After trying this method, my hair is super curly and bouncy even though it's long. I'm so grateful!

    Just here to tell you again that you rock. I haven’t seen a hairdresser for 4 years. Don’t get mad, I’m still trying to find a curly stylist. I am lucky in that I have a science background to help me with product part of things 👉 you are so scientifically correct, it’s impressive 👏👏 Kudos from a nerd

    Mel thank you so so much for this video. I was just this close to drop and ground my hair in a forever bun because I feel so tired of trying and not knowing what's best for my hair, feeling like I try a lot of things but not nowing what's going to turn out and why something I like works.
    Thank you ❤ I started my curly journey like 7 years ago and finally find a good guide in your videos. Ily ❤❤❤❤

    5 years ago, I discovered that my hair is curly/wavy. I lived my life with a frizzball on my head that I always put in a bun and/or straightened it to death. Around this time I found this Channel witch just had a couple of videos on it - but real helpful ones as I was overwhelmed and confused about what to do with my hair. Now 5 years later, I have watched every single video of yours, learned a ton, had countless good laughs (love your humor!) and: I have never straightened my hair ever since to this day. While I wish my hair has a little bit of a tighter curl sometimes, mostly I celebrate my curls and waves now. So thank you Mel, you changed my head and I love it! Greetings from Germany

    I've had curly hair my entire life. I just recently am attempting to use proper products and style "correctly", and I'm still learning things, like you saying 90° brushing. I use a wide tooth comb in shower because I have a lot of hair falling out from PCOS. I've never brush styled or tried finger coiling but I'm gonna give it a try! I usually just rake my fingers, praying hands, squish, plop, and root clip for some more volume, then shake my roots out once mostly dry. Or just put product in, squish it in, and let air dry. Thanks for your tips and tricks, I really enjoy how you explain everything. ❤

    I just wanna leave my testimony here! My hair texture has changed a lot throughout my life, from practically straight to REALLY wavy, basically curly. And my kiddos all have curly hair, really tight beautiful curls. And man, you really helped me out. I had no idea how to take care of curly hair, without these videos I would have been super lost. Thanks a lot!
