UPDATE: I no longer recommend these products due to recent claims of DevaCurl causing hair and scalp issues. But the technique is still fine and can be used with any products.
Can you possibly make an updated video with the new products you're using? I'd like to find new products because up until a few weeks ago I was a loyal DevaCurl user :( Please help a fellow curly-girl out!
@@ariyac2428 I have mostly 2c hair with 3a curls at the top, and I like OGX mousse. Both the Coconut Curls and the Argan Oil of Morocco have worked well for me.
I would like to thank you for all the tutorials you have made on YT ! It's hard to find technics and products when you have 3A or looser type of curls. So thanks to you, now, I embrace my natural curls which are more and more beautiful every week, following your pieces of advice. Thank you so much, I love you
Holy crap... I just did this the exact way you did it and 😐😐😐 WOW. I've seen these twist methods before and i was like, meh idk, and I never cared. But omg you made me wanna try and now I'm fabulous 😍😍
If some of my strands look like dreadlocks when they dry after I do the twist method does that mean it's wavy hair and not curly? Other parts curl nicely so I can see the difference between the textures
We literally have the same type of hair and i have been looking FOREVER for someone to help me with my hair. The back of my hair is 2c and the top is 3a and it was frustrating for a very long time and boom i found your video! Thank god and thank you for the videos!
I feel you hahahaa I have very frizzy jewish hair between a 2c and a 3a and her tips helped a bunch. (I still need to try finger coiling, i keep forgetting after my wash) Taking the sulfates out of my washing products helped a bunch!
Your hair is very odd, are you sure it’s 2c and not just flatter because you sleep on it? Not trying to question you it’s just that typically hair gets curlier not wavier near the back? (3A turning into 3b or c for example) Either way your hair is beautiful 😊❤️
Hahahaha its refreshing seeing girls with this hair types feeling like finaly a method does something good on our stuborn hair. Our hair type can be really tricky it took time to do this twist method but it was worth it and it lasted at least 3 days for me😁😅☺
@JJ Bowman That’s how mine is. Sleeping on it flattens the back. After a few days some of the pieces in the back get almost straight. Idk how to avoid it but I’m going to try out using a bonnet.
I got stressed when you said it takes long at first and takes a lot of practice to get good at til you did it and I realized it’s the exact same thing I used to do to my hair when I’d done out in class when I was 13 😂💀
Oooh I'mma try this out on my next wash. My hair is a range of 2a to 2c. It's annoying, how I do my hair and leave it really effects it. I love the definition and volume this gave you
Looove this. My hair is kind of curly and I spent so long trying to get my hair properly moisturized after 18 years of not knowing how to take care of my curls, but then got really sick and my hair’s been up in a bun for 4 months. I can’t wait to get my hair cut and give this a try when I’m better! I won’t look nearly as good as you do, but I’m grateful for people like you who are helping people learn how to properly take care of their curls.
Ashley exactly I have relaxed hair now and I don’t want to do the big chop so I’m trying to transition until my hairs the length I want to cut off the relaxed pieces but I saw this and wanted to watch
@@jazzy7877 I transitioned for 3.5 months but was seeing little to no change so I got lazy and big chopped. HUGE DIFFERENCE AND NO REGRET!!! (i'd been straightening it for 8 years without heat protectant and would also color it)
Wasn't sure if this would work on my 2b 30" hair but it did. Looks beautiful and my friend thought I had it trimmed because the ends look so much healthier. Thanks for the tips!
I have recently discovered this technique and it was a LIFE SAVER! 😄😄😄 i seriously hated my hair before.no definition. But this simple technique made the curls defined as if i used a curling iron.no heat 👍🏼😄 TOTALLY recommend it. And i liked the advice about the two directions so they wont become a big chunk, i will try it next time 👍🏼 XOXO from kuwait ♥️🌹
I just finger coiled my hair for the first time and OH MY GOD ITS AMAZING i have the same curl type as you and holy shit its like i used a curling iron
I'm Samoan with thick Polynesian curly hair. I always straighten my hair because I didn't know how to style my curly hair or embrace my curls. Watching your videos made me love my curls and start practicing styling them like yours. I love these video of yours sis. Beautiful.
I am so glad I found your videos I cannot find anybody that has such an exact curl pattern and type as me with fine hair you are awesome keep it up girl you’re gorgeous!! Thank you!
i found you yesterday and i cant get over how similar our hair is because i have never seen anyone with 2c, 3a and 3b curls all in one like me, your hair is beautiful and so are you
Gorgeous results! Finger coiling has helped my unruly curls in random places and the curls around my crown look so much more defined and spirally and it’s all thanks to your videos! ♥️
I love this, so many people recommended this technique for my curly hair but I couldn’t find a good video explaining how to do it right. Thanks so much!
ejbruks You’ve got to put those curls in a pineapple, my dude. Get a scrunchie, gently gather all your hair to the top of your head in a ponytail, and use the scrunchie to hold it. Only wrap it once, though. You don’t want to strangle your curls. :D
Last night I slept on a satin pillowcase for the first time and wow! The difference is amazing! My hair looked almost like it did when I went to bed instead of a big rat's nest.
Daedindalin I lift my hair up with no rubber band and sleep on it on a satin pillow case . I prefer this over the pineapple because i don’t get the flat hair on the top. As I turn from one side to the other I am used to moving it up in my sleep. In the morning there’s a lot of volume.
literally never related to anything more.. but i just put mine in an extremely low effort bun or top not & nothing will rlly 100% protect them but i use that method & it still helps a lot! it also makes things more comfy when you have wet hair from a shower.
I have 2c hair I'm in my transitioning phase in getting my natrual curl back. I'm so excited to start doing this. I think it will help. Although I've used Deva Curl ultra gel and wave maker they both dried out my hair. I've been using Curls blueberry Bliss Gel and Shea Moisture leave conditioner. It's doing an okay job. Still searching for a good gel.
I'm 2c-3b and my fave gel is DIY flaxseed gel! Check if those DC products have protein, you have be protein sensitive. It's a common problem with Devacurl products. I think it's more likely they have too much protein then they dried your hair our. Protein overload makes your hair feel like straw, and kind of brittle.
What color shea moisture do u use? I also have 2c/3a hair and I always used the orange one, but my hairdresser told me its to heavy for my curls, so I started using the bright pink one, that really changed my curls for the better
I found this video to be very interesting - I never knew that this method could be used for different types of hair. I have Type 4 curls - so tiny coils. I stopped putting a straightening relaxer in it a few years ago, and I am still learning how to deal with it. The latest transformation is that it is getting curlier and harder to straighten with heat. So, I started finger coiling the curliest sections. I find that the hair tends to retain length better - instead of shrinking down into an afro. It also helps to loosen the coils into spirals - which I really like because it looks like I spent a lot of time with a curling iron but lasts longer. If I take care not to get it too damp and wrap the finger coils into a bantu knot or around a scrunchie, I can get the hair to unwind enough to form loose waves. So, I use finger curls to loosen and unwind my naturally coily hair.
Beautiful! I have the exact curl type. I had done the finger coil but not quite like you do. Your technique is better. Since I have a lot of hair and it’s thicker, I am ok with curling my hair in one direction and not separating the curls quite as much. I’m excited to do your technique. Thank you so much for the wonderful tips!!!
and this whole time i thought these type of curls were only gifted to people naturally born with it. omfg thank you so much for showing us your technique and giving me hope for my unruly hair. You have no idea how many times i've just said screw it and put my hair in a ponytail or just chopped it off. Thank you. And You Just Got Yourself A New Sub!!!!
Love your channel girl! I have the same hair type as you. Although I'm still transitioning I've gotten about 70% of my curls back with only 3 months in to my CG journey! I feel like i have to finger coil to get the lasting definition, otherwise my curls have a lil mind of their own lol.
I saw this method a few months ago and I've been trying it ever since. It really does work 😍 the curls form beautiful 💕 It actually does train your curl pattern. I noticed the days I don't take the time to finger coil, my hair ends up drying in a coil by itself anyway. I definitely recommend 💯✨
I have 3A hair too and finger coiling is absolutely the best for my hair. Scrunching and other methods absolutely wreck my hair so when i found out about this i went to heaven
Oh my god thank you so much!! I’ve always had long hair (22-26”) up until my brain surgeries a couple years ago. I never knew how curly my natural healthy hair is (3B) but as it grows the thickness is weighing it down. I don’t like heat & rods are annoying to me so thank you for showing how to encourage my curls as it’s growing!!! 😭❤️
I love finger coiling my hair because it creates curl definition and volume. Not to mention it stays put together for a few days. Your hair is gorgeous😍
lol. I love finding the clumps from time to time and separating them, too. It is really satisfying. I'm 2b and 2c (I used to blow dry my hair straight. I mostly air dry now as I'm sick of the hairdryer). Now my 2b hair curls at the tips! Love that and even my hair stylist noticed the change. I learned to finger coil from you and it really adds body to my thin, blonde hair. This tutorial showed me I'm not even finger coiling 1/2 as taunt as you do and can't wait to try that! 😊 Your my #1 UA-cam for learning how to successfully transition to going naturally curly. 😁
You're a mixture of Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, and Zoe Saldana. That's it. That's what it is. You're welcome everyone who just couldn't find that last celebrity she looks like. I LOVED THE VIDEO BY THE WAY THANK YOU😍😍 I keep coming back to it because that's how much I love it and how much it gives me confidence to wear my victorian ringlets with pride even if I look like I just came out of the 1800s wearing jeans😂 take care gorgeous, love you always❣
KELLY!!! The final result is like making my heart -like- 3 sizes too big! GORGEOUS!!! I doubt you read all the comments, but OMG!!! Be still my heart with this- cannot wait to do it. Praise for girls doing something different than what urrrrrrrrybuddy else doing
Wowww!! Thank you so much for this video. I have been struggling to finger coil and actually achieve a nice curl for about the past FIVE washes! Smh. I used to only curl one time and it didn't do much... kind of even straightened some pieces. Now I do it about 3 times over and I got some great curls!! Yass! Thanks again!
I am not of a particular ethnic background but I have type 3a to 2c hair also and people accuse me all of the time of using a curling wand! It's irritating but kind of flattering. You're videos have helped me so much and my curls have never looked better! Thank you!
When I was Reading the comment above yours and I said she looks like Mariah Carey then I scroll down to see your comment you said the same thing I said
Super helpful. Will try this next weekend. Takes 4-5 hrs to dry my hair.... best overnight. Nervous about final look but weekends can be experimentation time. Thanks so much.
we have literally the same type of curls and the same thickness/texture from what I can see. I've only started my curly hair "journey" about a year ago and I look back at your older videos and my hair looks almost the exact same as you but blonde. I hope to get to the gorgeous curls you have in this video!
Jaleah Alvarez I don’t have a specific drugstore brand I love right now but I’m on the hunt. I’ll definitely make a video when I find products I really like
@@schockwaves15 OMG that website is life thank you soooo much! It was always so hard to Google each individual ingredient especially when the list is as long as a freaking papyrus scroll!
The hairdresser that helped me get/embrace my curls showed me finger-coiling, but in Texas, I only had to do a few, and only once in a while. I'm living in a much dryer climate and have been frustrated because my hair just hangs and the curl is "gone". I'm going to do this this morning and see what happens. Wish me luck!!!
I love your curly routine. I will take your advices the steps. I does use a brush comb to curl my hair but I think that's not the best thing to do. My ends does look fizzy . The brush does damage my ends. I will have to try the finger curl. Your beautiful and your is gorgeous. I did a big chop off. My hair looks more healthy and curlier
I never really cared before for finger coiling or doing anything to my hair after a shower. But wow! This technique is so amazing and leaves such beautiful defined curls! Thank you do much. P.S I love your bangs they're amazing!
Girl yasss! I’ve been using my finger to help my daughter’s hair along (but she’s impatient so not as much as this) but didn’t really know it had a name LOL “finger coiling”. I like this. So glad I found your channel. I’m gonna check out these products. Especially whatever you’re using to comb/brush out knots.
my mom use to do something similar to me and my sister when we were younger but she would wrap her finger and just spray our hair with water and lemon that she added to the water and that would set our because when she was young thry would use that as hairspray i dont know if thats damaging for the hair but it would stay for the whole day
I was blessed with extremely curly hair in most of my head and a small layer underneath and very front straight 😫 so I think this will help me a lot thank you oh btw I hate when ppl say oh that’s fake stfu ppl and stop hating so much
Your hair looks so amazing afterwards. I did this today and it looks nothing like that, not even close :( I couldn't get that level of definition out of them. Maybe if I did this more regularly?
Ellie May Yeah try practicing for a while. It takes time to develop the technique and to get your hair used to it. But it could also be that your type just doesn’t work with this technique and that’s ok too
Your video was so helpful I thought my curls would never cooperate until I saw your video it was so helpful and just you’re an angel I don’t know what I would’ve done without you it really helped them out and thank you
Thank you for showing the technique! I have struggled to find curl help videos for my hair type (which is very similar to yours). 🖤 Thank you, thank you!
Finally, someone I found with the same texture as me! I never really know what exactly to do with my hair because it's not as curly as everyone else's but I love it anyways
Idk if you are concerned about volume at the roots but if you flip your head upside down while you diffuse it you’ll have more volume. Your hair looks amazing I just really like super big voluminous hair and thought I’d share this with you
Or have your hair dresser cut in more layers on top. It looks absolutely insane straight, but curled, it's magic. My Deva stylist has been cutting it that way for years and it's never failed. Also, take a big toothed clip and clip up sections of your roots during dry time. It'll help lift the hair at the root since everything else you've done till this point is going to devolumize the crown. Gorgeous spirals, queen!
Thanks so much for this! I have transitioning, dyed, damaged hair that’s a mix from 2A to 3A and this looks like it might work for my curls/texture. Your hair is great and such shiny, defined goals!
Daniella Fagan I usually twist in random directions. But some people’s hair already lean toward a certain direction so I’d say to follow that direction if your hair does that
You'll probably know which direction to curl with practice. And one way to recognize whether that direction works is when its the wrong direction your curl will look like it's really fighting to keep shape, like becoming a frantic mess with a big zag shape instead of a cork screw. For me, if I accidentally curl it wrong, sometimes it's just a matter of trying a different angle, like maybe twisting it upwards instead of pulling down while you curl. Other times if I touch it wrong it's just over for that curl on that style day but it might curl well another time. Keep playing with it! You'll even get a memory for which curls like what direction and where each curl naturally is so you don't accidentally break apart a natural curl clump.
Daniella Fagan probably, i notice that my hair likes going a certain direction. What i do is i apply my leave in/moisturizer to the piece I'm gonna coil and scrunch. The curl tends to show you which way it likes to bend. After i find my direction, i apply the gel and coil, scrunching if needed.
I have 3a/3b type curls and I am so glad I found thissss, I have naturally curly hair but they have kinda been going away over time with heat and stuff so I want to start finger coiling to train my curls
Thanks for such an informative video! I’m a newbie CG and still learning. Your spiral method makes sense for my hair type and next styling time, I’m all over it!
My hair is like hers as it looks straight when wet and scrunching promotes the curls. I have fine low porosity hair assuming that has something to do with it.
I am so grateful I found your page. You’re so beautiful and I’ve changed my hair routine so much because of what you’ve taught me. My curls are living their best life and I use many of the products you have recommended. Thank you again for all your videos !
Thank you for this video! My hair pattern is very similar to yours. I think I've been using heavier hair products which makes my hair heavy. I love Deva Curl but have not used the products you use. Will be trying this now! 😊
Love the video! I understand you 💯. People always ask me if i use a curling wand . Cuz of how my curls are perfectly formed. I don't really need to do much in my hair . I only pick the pieces that are more of a wavy way than curls and finger coil them.💜love the video . I watch you from Puerto Rico! Blessings!
I coil a couple pieces in the front of my face (I think I need to layer and face frame but I'm not sure) and I love it, so I should take time and try it with my whole head!
No bc air drying doesn’t give volume to your hair as in it is drying “flat” whereas if you are drying it with a diffuser it scrunches up your hair and it will dry while being scrunched up which makes it stay in there for most cases. But you should try letting one side of your hair air dry and the other one with the diffuser to see which you like best. Hope this helps! :)
UPDATE: I no longer recommend these products due to recent claims of DevaCurl causing hair and scalp issues. But the technique is still fine and can be used with any products.
Can you possibly make an updated video with the new products you're using? I'd like to find new products because up until a few weeks ago I was a loyal DevaCurl user :( Please help a fellow curly-girl out!

Gorgeous. I'm curious as to how it would do if you just let it air dry.
Omg this works 100%!!! My hair is also a loose curl and when I did the finger method my hair came out absolutely beautiful 😍😍😍
This is kind of mesmerizing. I totally want to try this (my hair is like 2c), but I'm worried I would spend like 2 hours and end up doing it wrong 😂
Oh my god thank you so much!! I’ve always had long hair (22-26”) up until my brain surgeries a couple years ago. I never knew how curly my natural healthy hair is (3B) but as it grows the thickness is weighing it down. I don’t like heat & rods are annoying to me so thank you for showing how to encourage my curls as it’s growing!!! 😭❤️
I love finger coiling my hair because it creates curl definition and volume. Not to mention it stays put together for a few days. Your hair is gorgeous😍
candice44441 Exactly! Thank you for watching! 😊💕
I have a super super similar hair type to you... I need to try this! Thanks for the video ❤️
Love your curls💕 they are gorgeous 💋 💋
Alexa Style Book Thank you! 💖
lol. I love finding the clumps from time to time and separating them, too. It is really satisfying. I'm 2b and 2c (I used to blow dry my hair straight. I mostly air dry now as I'm sick of the hairdryer). Now my 2b hair curls at the tips! Love that and even my hair stylist noticed the change. I learned to finger coil from you and it really adds body to my thin, blonde hair. This tutorial showed me I'm not even finger coiling 1/2 as taunt as you do and can't wait to try that! 😊 Your my #1 UA-cam for learning how to successfully transition to going naturally curly. 😁
You're a mixture of Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, and Zoe Saldana. That's it. That's what it is. You're welcome everyone who just couldn't find that last celebrity she looks like.
I LOVED THE VIDEO BY THE WAY THANK YOU😍😍 I keep coming back to it because that's how much I love it and how much it gives me confidence to wear my victorian ringlets with pride even if I look like I just came out of the 1800s wearing jeans😂 take care gorgeous, love you always❣
KELLY!!! The final result is like making my heart -like- 3 sizes too big! GORGEOUS!!! I doubt you read all the comments, but OMG!!! Be still my heart with this- cannot wait to do it. Praise for girls doing something different than what urrrrrrrrybuddy else doing
Lauren Kirton So glad! Thanks for watching! 💕
I've never tried this before, but I'm excited! 💞
thanks so much im going on a road trip and my hair is always really frizy and know I tried it and I loved the results!
Beautiful! I've been using the finger coiling technique for a few years and it never fails. Great video and I will definitely give that gel a try.
Pretty lady, thank you for not allowing the haters to pull you down. You're beautiful! Thanks for sharing your technique.
She reminds me of four people shakira,Jennifer Lopez,Beyoncé,and Mariah Cary🤷♀️
True... 😂
Tiene de todos un poco . Muy guapa 🤗
Wowww!! Thank you so much for this video. I have been struggling to finger coil and actually achieve a nice curl for about the past FIVE washes! Smh. I used to only curl one time and it didn't do much... kind of even straightened some pieces. Now I do it about 3 times over and I got some great curls!! Yass! Thanks again!
This is my natural hair pattern, I just have a few flat pieces I could totally use this on so it all matches
I am not of a particular ethnic background but I have type 3a to 2c hair also and people accuse me all of the time of using a curling wand! It's irritating but kind of flattering. You're videos have helped me so much and my curls have never looked better! Thank you!
She looks like Mariah Carey
Yes, the young Mariah! No Beyonce there.
When I was Reading the comment above yours and I said she looks like Mariah Carey then I scroll down to see your comment you said the same thing I said
👏
watching her separate curls and watching the curls bounce back into tinier curls. soooo relaxing
Spectacular effect! But it looks like sooo much work.
Really cool idea. It doesn’t damage your hair. Really good step by step description,thank you.
Just found your channel! Love yours compared to some I’ve watched. I would love to see a video or video for day 1, day 2, day 3 or until next wash.
Super helpful. Will try this next weekend. Takes 4-5 hrs to dry my hair.... best overnight. Nervous about final look but weekends can be experimentation time. Thanks so much.
omg you are so beautiful! And the curly bangs are so unique.
we have literally the same type of curls and the same thickness/texture from what I can see. I've only started my curly hair "journey" about a year ago and I look back at your older videos and my hair looks almost the exact same as you but blonde. I hope to get to the gorgeous curls you have in this video!
can u use a drugstore instead of devacurl
products
Jaleah Alvarez I don’t have a specific drugstore brand I love right now but I’m on the hunt. I’ll definitely make a video when I find products I really like
@@JoyBeforeHerok thank u
I like to use Cantu curl activator cream and a gel to seal.
Yes it is possible, but you'll have to check if the ingredients are good for your hair, for example with this website: isitcg.herokuapp.com
@@schockwaves15 OMG that website is life thank you soooo much! It was always so hard to Google each individual ingredient especially when the list is as long as a freaking papyrus scroll!
The hairdresser that helped me get/embrace my curls showed me finger-coiling, but in Texas, I only had to do a few, and only once in a while.
I'm living in a much dryer climate and have been frustrated because my hair just hangs and the curl is "gone". I'm going to do this this morning and see what happens. Wish me luck!!!
Beautiful woman thank you, my hair is like a birds nest. Not anymore thanks to watching your videos! ♥️
I love your curly routine. I will take your advices the steps. I does use a brush comb to curl my hair but I think that's not the best thing to do. My ends does look fizzy . The brush does damage my ends. I will have to try the finger curl. Your beautiful and your is gorgeous. I did a big chop off. My hair looks more healthy and curlier
Your face reminds me of Beyonce . your very pretty😍
especially from the side view, if someone said she was Beyonce id believe them
Dee Watson what you said was very ignorant. Explain how Beyonce looks ghetto.
She MUCH prettyer than beyonce
Dee Watson how does Beyoncé look ghetto? You sound ignorant and dumb. Is it because she’s black?
@@jakarae9812 wth is wrong with you
I never really cared before for finger coiling or doing anything to my hair after a shower. But wow! This technique is so amazing and leaves such beautiful defined curls! Thank you do much. P.S I love your bangs they're amazing!
Although your hair is gorgeous, I just wanted to say you’re beautiful in general and you’ve got a beautiful smile!
Thank you very much! 💖
Girl yasss! I’ve been using my finger to help my daughter’s hair along (but she’s impatient so not as much as this) but didn’t really know it had a name LOL “finger coiling”. I like this. So glad I found your channel. I’m gonna check out these products. Especially whatever you’re using to comb/brush out knots.
my mom use to do something similar to me and my sister when we were younger but she would wrap her finger and just spray our hair with water and lemon that she added to the water and that would set our because when she was young thry would use that as hairspray i dont know if thats damaging for the hair but it would stay for the whole day
Lemon is not damaging
I was blessed with extremely curly hair in most of my head and a small layer underneath and very front straight 😫 so I think this will help me a lot thank you oh btw I hate when ppl say oh that’s fake stfu ppl and stop hating so much
Your hair looks so amazing afterwards. I did this today and it looks nothing like that, not even close :( I couldn't get that level of definition out of them. Maybe if I did this more regularly?
Ellie May Yeah try practicing for a while. It takes time to develop the technique and to get your hair used to it. But it could also be that your type just doesn’t work with this technique and that’s ok too
It could be the products, your hair type or maybe you just air dried your hair instead of diffusing it
I’m so happy I finally have found a UA-camr with the exact hair type as me ❤️🙏
That looks gorgeous!!!!! 💇💕
Your video was so helpful I thought my curls would never cooperate until I saw your video it was so helpful and just you’re an angel I don’t know what I would’ve done without you it really helped them out and thank you
Angelise Terrell Aww thank you I’m so happy to hear that! 💖
Lmao me toooo i catch myself separating clumps without thinking all the time
Thank you for showing the technique! I have struggled to find curl help videos for my hair type (which is very similar to yours). 🖤 Thank you, thank you!
Finally, someone I found with the same texture as me! I never really know what exactly to do with my hair because it's not as curly as everyone else's but I love it anyways
Yes!!!! Finally it worked!,especially with cold water!
Idk if you are concerned about volume at the roots but if you flip your head upside down while you diffuse it you’ll have more volume. Your hair looks amazing I just really like super big voluminous hair and thought I’d share this with you
Juliann a Yup I know 😊 That’s what I usually I do, but it’s hard to turn upside down while filming sometimes because I get out of the frame.
Or have your hair dresser cut in more layers on top. It looks absolutely insane straight, but curled, it's magic. My Deva stylist has been cutting it that way for years and it's never failed. Also, take a big toothed clip and clip up sections of your roots during dry time. It'll help lift the hair at the root since everything else you've done till this point is going to devolumize the crown. Gorgeous spirals, queen!
Thanks so much for this! I have transitioning, dyed, damaged hair that’s a mix from 2A to 3A and this looks like it might work for my curls/texture. Your hair is great and such shiny, defined goals!
How do you know which direction to twist? Does it matter? ♥️
Daniella Fagan I usually twist in random directions. But some people’s hair already lean toward a certain direction so I’d say to follow that direction if your hair does that
You'll probably know which direction to curl with practice. And one way to recognize whether that direction works is when its the wrong direction your curl will look like it's really fighting to keep shape, like becoming a frantic mess with a big zag shape instead of a cork screw. For me, if I accidentally curl it wrong, sometimes it's just a matter of trying a different angle, like maybe twisting it upwards instead of pulling down while you curl. Other times if I touch it wrong it's just over for that curl on that style day but it might curl well another time. Keep playing with it! You'll even get a memory for which curls like what direction and where each curl naturally is so you don't accidentally break apart a natural curl clump.
Daniella Fagan probably, i notice that my hair likes going a certain direction. What i do is i apply my leave in/moisturizer to the piece I'm gonna coil and scrunch. The curl tends to show you which way it likes to bend. After i find my direction, i apply the gel and coil, scrunching if needed.
I have 3a/3b type curls and I am so glad I found thissss, I have naturally curly hair but they have kinda been going away over time with heat and stuff so I want to start finger coiling to train my curls
Will this work if you have super long hair?My hair is 2c 3a and it goes down to my but. I really want to try this but idk if it will work.
It works for me, and I also have the same curl type as you.
Thanks for such an informative video! I’m a newbie CG and still learning. Your spiral method makes sense for my hair type and next styling time, I’m all over it!
Your hair barely looks curly when it's wet. How did it end up so curly?? Maybe I need to invest in a diffuser
Ultravioletx1 the curls swell/relax when they’re full of water.
curly hair of that type looks straight when its wet
My hair is like hers as it looks straight when wet and scrunching promotes the curls. I have fine low porosity hair assuming that has something to do with it.
Ultravioletx1 mine looks the same wet. Finger coiling and using a diffuser took me from 2a/2b to 2c/3a
Mine is like hers and it’s wavy/straight when wet
I am so grateful I found your page. You’re so beautiful and I’ve changed my hair routine so much because of what you’ve taught me. My curls are living their best life and I use many of the products you have recommended. Thank you again for all your videos !
Raynah Woolsey Thank you, I’m so happy to hear that! 💖
Thank you for this video! My hair pattern is very similar to yours. I think I've been using heavier hair products which makes my hair heavy. I love Deva Curl but have not used the products you use. Will be trying this now! 😊
I'm definitely going to try this method starting now since my hair is very short, and hopefully it will encourage nice curls as it grows out longer.
Love the video! I understand you 💯. People always ask me if i use a curling wand . Cuz of how my curls are perfectly formed. I don't really need to do much in my hair . I only pick the pieces that are more of a wavy way than curls and finger coil them.💜love the video . I watch you from Puerto Rico! Blessings!
Great tutorial😍 the hair on the crown of my head struggles to curl up so hopefully this will help my hair texture look consistent 😭🙏🙏
I have 2C 3A 3B curls too and people ask me everyday if I curl my hair because of the bigger clumps😂
We have almost the same hair type and curl pattern. I’m so excited to try this method!
Does this work with type 2a -2b hair?
Yes
I coil a couple pieces in the front of my face (I think I need to layer and face frame but I'm not sure) and I love it, so I should take time and try it with my whole head!
Will it look the same if you just let your hair air dry?
Omg I wanna know this too 😱
No bc air drying doesn’t give volume to your hair as in it is drying “flat” whereas if you are drying it with a diffuser it scrunches up your hair and it will dry while being scrunched up which makes it stay in there for most cases. But you should try letting one side of your hair air dry and the other one with the diffuser to see which you like best. Hope this helps! :)
Lovee this video! Finaly someone with my exact same hair texture I get so excited when I learn new techniques about our stuborn hair type😅😅
she looks like Beyoncé, Shakira, and Mariah Carey all in one !
Going to try this now! So glad I found this video moments before I stepped into the shower! 😍😍😍
