Back with another hair basics video for those of you who may be new to wearing your natural waves and curls. Those of us with wavy hair and those of us with fine hair are generally concerned about having defined hair without it being completely weighed down. Heavy products can cause waves and curls to become flat and lose their definition. In this video I explain what makes a product heavy and what makes a product lightweight.

Great video! I've found some silicone products to be the lightest styers I've ever tried. I don't think silicones automatically = weight. Typically people who are worried about their hair weighing down are clarifying regularly, so I say go for the silicones if it gets you the lightweight results you want. I would be more careful if you have low porosity hair because that's when you'll seal and dry out your strands, but my coarser, normal porosity hair would need a lot of silicone to stop it from taking in water. I'm on the hunt for one-and-done products that I don't have to clarify out bc my hair is so dry, but it'll be okay if I don't. For now, I'm making heavier products work for me by just emulsifying small amounts in wet hands, adding water till the mixture feels really liquidy. Hope that helps someone!
I started using Mielle hair milk and I love how it makes my waves “curlier” I love it! And it doesn’t make my hair look crunchy at all.
This video is so underrated. This really gave me a lot of knowledge and now I know what to buy! Thx gurl 🥰
This is really well explained and well thought out. Thank you so much for this helpful explanation
Thank you. Just starting and trying to learn! Super helpful
Suhanna I swear you are reading my mind!! I was just thinking about this topic and hoping to find a good video on this!! Love you😚
Thank you for this video! I have 2a,2b and 3c hair and I can't tell when the products I use are heavy or light. Btw your hair looks extremely beautiful today! Love you!😍❤
Thanks for the info! Finding the right styler has been a struggle for me because I have thick, coarse hair with a 2B/2C wave. For me I find that layering a light cream under a watery, lightweight gel keeps my frizz controlled but also doesn’t completely stretch my waves.
What products are you using? I have the same hair type
jay hulrs I’ve been loving the Not Your Mother’s Curl Talk Line. I use the cream as my only styler in the winter and both the gel and the mouse are light enough for me to layer on top of the cream in the summer when I need stronger hold.
So glad I found your videos! I think my hair is more similar to yours than anyone else I follow! 😊. Subscribed!
Most informative youtuber thank u sm❤
im about to start my wavy/curly hair journey and my bet is that I have wavy hair -- as someone who wears hijab it adds an extra layer of not knowing what to do or where to start but your videos have been super helpful!!
I literally always look forward to your Sunday uploads lol!! Can you please make a video about gel casts, how to achieve one, why you would want to achieve one, and which gels to use? I recently got the herbal essences gel u love and I wanna try creating a cast with it! Thanks❤️
Will add this idea to my list! Also that gel is ride or die, I hope it works as well for you as it does for me. 🙌🏾
You’re an angel thank you for this video 🤍
Thank you for always making videos so full of information! I always look forward to seeing another video from you! ❤️❤️
appreciate your videos! we have the same texture
Great video, I'm a guy who's been growing my hair out for over 8 months, right at the beginning i jumped on the cantu band wagon cause i didnt understand hair types and even though I got really thick curly hair i still find those heavier creams and products make my roots flat they also make my hair look greasy, clumpy and sticky, so i stopped using them for at least 4 months and was just using little bit of argan oil after wash day to control some frizz but recently my hair has been like an afro and needed more taming so I baught cheap leave in condtioner and cheap curl mousse from drug store and used them after wash day instead of argan oil and it's a totally different experience from heavy creams my hair felt really light, curls was defined, I did use a hair dryer with diffuser though cause other wise it takes 4 hours to air dry
I’ve just started wearing my hair wavy again and your videos have been SO helpful. Have you tried cake hair products at all?
I haven’t but I always see them in the drugstore, I know they have a wave spray but I’m not a fan of sea salt spray products
Thank you thank you !!
Helpful thanks
Very helpful video. I use a thicker gel but I add water to my hands and then mix this with the gel. Would this help make it lighter? Thanks
Hi, I love your videos and just started this method! Can you make a video about some light weight creams and gels? I found a good styler for gel but still looking for a good cream.

I wish I had found your channel before I purchased cantu products for my wavy hair, uhh, well this sucks lol. I have a lot of hair and it is thick and coarse with waves (curls?) at the bottom and straight thinish hair at the top. I can't get the tops of my hair to remain wavy and I doubt the cantu styler will help much. Oh well, better late than never. I need to do more research. Thanks for all the info! You're gorgeous and your hair is how I want mine to be.
Have the exact same hairtype! Thats normal you will never get curls everywhere, ony at the bottom :) but thats pretty too!☺️
Do you have a recommendation for a lightweight mousse for thin 2b-3a curls? That isn’t stick or flaky?
Would you mind to try and review the Garnier frucits hair mask especially the papapaya one 😍
I’ve already tried the avocado one but I can try the papaya one too!
@@SuhannaDeSilva I really like the Avocado one.😊
Is is good Cantu for wavy hair?
How does the OGX air dry cream compare to the mousse? I have fine, dry permed hair that would benefit from the lightweight products you mentioned. Do I need both types of OGX products, or just one?
I have been using a devacurl defining hair gel and it makes my hair really greasy after a day or two but it makes my waves wavier. Do I need to move to lighter weight products and will lighter weight products give me less definition?
You should probably stop using Devacurl all together
I have 2b-3a hair. Do you think I could get away with wearing just a gel as a styling product? I notice not many people do this so I’m just wondering if it would be alright
Yes you definitely can! Most people when they start styling their curly hair generally only use gel since it’s hydrating and also provides hold
I use a leave in conditioner with a gel after
do you have any recommendations for light leave in conditioners?
The Garnier Aloe air dry leave in
My favorite product ever was the deva curl foam. But I threw it out after all the hair loss videos I've seen. Can you recommend a foam or mousse that gives good volume and curl enhancement?
Herbal Essences Totally Twisted!
Something I am trying for the same reason and loving is the SheaMoisture's Coconut & Hibiscus Frizz-Free Mousse. Same pump/packaging as the deva curl one and the consistency is very similar as well.
I have low porosity, thick 2b/2c hair, any curling creams that can help ? i’m currently using the jbco leave in conditioner & scrunch gel afterwards but i really don’t need the leave in conditioner bc my hair is in a good state, i want a curling cream but have NOOOO idea what to use
& ohyeah, drugstore please bc i am ONE broke bitch
Try the OGX coconut air dry cream or the Marc Anthony curl lotion, it’s called a “lotion” but it’s actually really thin and light
Suhanna De Silva do you think it’ll work with thick hair ? some light hair products tend to make my hair puffy which is annoying
Hey I’m a dude that is growing my hair what type of product should I use if my hair looks like a helmet?
I bought the ogx air dry cream to try it out but idk when I should apply it in my routine. After I shampoo and conditioner my hair, I apply a leave-in treatment, and I apply gel. Should I do the air dry cream at the end or before the gel now? Anyone help pls 😭
After leave in, before gel
I bought this. Haven’t used it yet. I’m curious to see how it’s gonna work for me.
I'm probably the only person looking for products to weight down my hair.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I'm here looking for a super heavy product to weigh my hair down:)
Me too omg I hate when they go up so I want them to be down yk
Can you suggest a good lightweight curl cream?
I don’t use a lot of curl creams but the Marc Anthony strictly curls “curl cream” is super light, a little too light to be consider a cream product imo but it works pretty well.
does it help to dialute heavy products with water?
Yes!
Yes yes yes yes (I do this to every leave in or styling cream)
literally watching this with the cantu cream in my hand 🤡
