My hair is exactly like yours and I’ve been watching curly girl videos for years and no one ever talked about how thin and see through the ends get. My curly hair is almost to my waist, I love my long hair, but the last 5 inches are see through. I’m not going to cut my hair but I will try the thickening serum, for sure. Thank you for this video. I will become a new subscriber.
We always called stringly-looking hair in our house "stribbly" and I find it to be accurate. 😂 Thank you for your tips! You get it. P.S. I love your room -- it's like Greece! 💙 Wow I'm impressed with gals who spend this much time on their hair. I am too lazy. Wash about every 5 days (only brush before I wash), add some products, air dry with some finger help and then not long after inevitably I put it up because I can't stand the warmth on my neck or hair in my eyes, thereby undoing much of the curl. 🤦♀😂
Beautiful! I just used the CurlSmith new pink thickening lotion and WOW. I am blonde growing out my gray (10 months in) and my hair looks so see through so these tips plus the lotion was great!!
I am also growing out my bleach highlights ive gone cold turkey now for 11 months my ends are stringy from the beach damaged my new hair growth is much thicker I will have the ends trimmed once I get the length I want as I dont like short hair on me .I'm really looking after my hair with k18 ,Olaplex and curl smith Bond rehab salve since ive not had bleach highlights anymore. My hair is in such better condition my silver hair is shining through Thanks for this video I'm liking the bounce curl brush ❤
Yup ! I just got a Bob! Looks amazing! Mine was llong n nope!! Looked stringy n gross!! It looks so much fuller!! N I need volume on sides because I have a longer oval face!! I have all natural gray now n belongs at shoulder length!!
Thank you so much for explaining that there’s a difference between thickening products and volume ones. I now realize I always chose volume products expecting thickening results and was therefore always disappointed. Let a new round of experimentation begin! Question: do you think weather is also a factor?
That is annoying. I would be firm next time and ask for exactly what you want. You're paying your stylist, you're the customer, you need to be happy with the service!
@@HolisticEnchilada , I know, but you won’t believe how hard it is for me to get the cut I want. My hair is short now because I kept having to get haircuts corrected.
I have fine/thin high porosity 3b/3c hair and I've recently started my curly hair journey. I'm learning a lot but still trying to find a routine that's right for me. Thanks for this video!! How often do u wash ur hair?
Hi Delilah. Can you achieve the thickening result by using the Bounce Curl Volume Edge Lift version of the brush? I am not sure which one I should purchase, the Define version of the brush or the Volume version.
I honestly can't say because I haven't tried the volume version but I'd think it would work as well. It's probably better for my hair I just don't have it to compare.
I too have thin and low density/porosity hair. I have both and honestly I prefer the volume one. I find that the original one clumps them too much that I have “less” hair. I ended up gifting the other one to a friend that prefers larger clumps.
I have both brushes I have thinner hair type 2b curls I find the bounce curl volume edge brush makes my waves less curly and longer sometimes even stringy but does give volume the edge brush gives more definition and makes my waves look more spiral and curly I like both for different reasons
If you're asking which ones I used on this wash day, it was Malibu C Scalp Wellness shampoo and EVOLVh Smart Curl conditioner. If you're asking for recommendations, check out this post: holisticenchilada.com/high-porosity-hair-products-fine-curly-2b-2c-3a-hair/
The medium hold vs strong hold gel advice is terrific. Never considered that! Thanks!!
I'm so glad you found it helpful!
Omg! I’ve needed this video for 20 years 😭 finally someone who understands ❤

Since most creators with curly hair have thick hair not many talk about it. I hope these tips help you!

Thanks! I am actually redecorating it soon but keeping the same color scheme.
Just in time for washing my hair! Thanks!!
You’re welcome 😊

I'm ready to cut my hair again. It looks so full right after a cut.

Question: do you think weather is also a factor?
Glad that was helpful. The weather affects the volume of your hair and humidity can make it "swell", so yes.
The hair stylists always put too many layers in my hair and tell me I need them. It’s so annoying.

Usually every other day. I can go longer when it isn't so hot and humid.
I am in Arizona. Used to leave in Florida. Ugh the humidity! But now?? Omg dry dry!
Yeah they are both difficult to deal with for sure!

What clarifying shampoo do you use? What conditioner after?
Usually Malibu C Hard Water Wellness or the Nizoral dandruff shampoo followed by EVOLVh SmartCurl or TWIST Weather or Not conditioner.
