    Let's remember its JUST hair!!! This video was highly requested. You guys wanted to know my thoughts now that I've chopped about 6 inches off my hair. All hair types, length, density, color, etc are BEAUTIFUL. Please don't obsess over your hair length. Its beautiful at ANY length!!

    I love your hair this length 😍 It looks so full, thick & your curls are so defined! Not to mention it frames your face so well 🥰

    Ooohhhh yes, the amount of product we curly's go through! I always chuckle to myself when I read on a product label, "apply a dime sized amount on palm of hand." The reality is more like, "apply a baseball sized amount for starters then just keep going from there." Glad I stumbled across your channel, lots of fantastic curly hair hair tips! Cheers 🙂

    Your hair is still quite long considering the shrinkage. I think the new cut suits you and your face so well :) Love it!

    Ugh thank you for talking about how different products work at different lengths. My profile pic is old and I may have buzzed my head bald in it- but then I’ve been growing my hair for 3 years, with the goal to get my curls to my mid back. Almost there finally, but yeah it has been so frustrating whenever I thought I found the perfect products, they wouldn’t work as a few months later once my hair got longer. Its so frustrating to keep having to hunt for the perfect styling combo and or ratio of product amounts for the desired definition/volume. Can’t wait till the the hair on the top of my head reaches to the bottom my chest so I can blunt cut it across my chest to get rid of all the layers

  • @rosar.8624

    My hair is currently medium length just like your hair is now and it already takes me A LOT to detangle and deep condition BUT I still want my hair to be as long as your hair used to be.

  • @candicefoy

    The best benefit for me, like you mentioned, is product selection doesn’t matter as much and I could rock frizzy or bad wash day better with long hair. Love the shorter defined ringlets on you!

    My hair is soooo long
    Detangling is a nightmare..mind you I need a trim lol cause I get fairy knots
    All and all I preffer mid-short curly hair because the curls look at their best and not weight down

    • @Leximarcellaa

    • @amixeblu
      @amixeblu 4 роки тому +4

      I am barely wavy/curly and I have classic length (over the bum length) hair. It does get tangly sometimes, but ever since I layered it (compact cut, ponytail on the forehead), it's been swell. Don't attempt that cut if you're not ready, because it will give you a sharp V shape, and layers from waist/hip to over the bum. I love it though, and that's the most important thing! :D

    Congrats on doing things how you want to be. I was so not in the mood to be a UA-camr for naturally curly hair until I saw that people were getting sponsors. Making youtube should be fun not a headache Kudos in taking action how you want your channel to be 😍

  • @etrikia

    Woah I'm early :O
    I think this depends on the definition of "long" and short" my hair is just about the same length as yours is now and this is the longest it's been in years, I'm honestly waiting it out to chop it off again. I found shorter hair harder to look okay on the days before my wash day. But too short and not having the option to just put it in a bun kinda sucks. The biggest con I'm having with the longer it gets is how much more quickly it tangles/ and knots up. Not to mention drying time is also up!
    However, I can do a lot more with my hair in terms of styling to take advantage of the length ( I've been keeping it in a pineapple a lot more now)

    • @Leximarcellaa

      And omg yes!!! The tangles are just worse with longer hair 😭😭😭 I’m not missing that AT ALL!! lol

    I used go have long curly hair but now it's lob.
    One pro of long hair was that I could hide a bad hair day with a braid easily. But now if I have a bad hair day I have to wash it all over again.

    How the heck do you keep the top defined?
    I think I ruined it putting it up too much other than that half way and down of my curls looks like ur hair and the top is kinda just like wavy and undefined like a slinky twisted the opposite way

    So I have a question. I have this problem with my curly hair where the front sections of my hair is so dry and frizzy. I apply types of conditioner and creams and oils but it never fully soaks it in it's just super frustrating. So my question is do I need to cut it as if it was a layered bang to get it to come back to life? @Leximarcellaa

    • @Leximarcellaa
      @Leximarcellaa  4 роки тому

      Hmm normally that can be a few issues. The simplest one is that maybe your curl pattern is just different at the crown of your hair. But other issues could be your showers are too hot, friction (because the outer layers of our hair are most exposed), your over washing that area of your hair, heat/ sun/ UV damage. I mean it could be a few reasons. Id try to re-evaluate your wash and goes. But possibly your hair texture just might be different there? Hope this helps some.

    • @victoriavalentin2752

      @@Leximarcellaa wow that's one thing I never thought it could be is the hot showers. It now makes sense. I do have a bad habit of letting the got water hit my head alot. But its something I can work on. I thought I was gonna have to cut my hair. Thank you so much your videos help me so much and inspire me to care for my curls and actually love them. Before I wouldn't really care until I started to see the damage I was doing to my precious curls. Thanks for all that you do 💜💜 Just followed your Instagram can't wait to see more from you !!
