you are so gorgeous! my hair used to be that short too but i never styled it this way and now I'm sad because I'm in the process of growing it back. next time i chop it off i'll try this! thank you for the tutorial! the scarf suggestion makes all the difference.
I do not know if you still wear this style but!!! To help with the curls you should brush down with both a bristled brush and a paddle/wig brush simultaneously, saw it on Alissa Ashley's channel and I thought that might be a helpful tip!
really cute. I use to wear my hair like that too so I have a tip for you. when you are all done and your hair is fully dry go back in with your make up base and carefully blend your base back up close to your hairline so you don't have that two tone line where the gel took some of your make off. I usually do my makeup after my hair drier to prevent that. I actually miss my super short hair. so easy to was and go. the longer mine gets the more work. I may go back to my short hair. cute. thanks.
I found a link to your video on Pinterest and you've been a life saver for me. I just recently cut my hair and struggling with styling it. Thank you for this 🤩🤩🤩
She is presentable and seems neat. I suggest as opposed to gel styling exchange for the use of conditioner's for the promotion of course healthiness with hairstyling. Influencing conditioners as routine is better for overall stimulation. It leaves the hair dressed softer and smooths flyaways or the damage of dryness and eliminates splitting of the hair-type ends. Additionally, hair mousse includes textural control and stay. She is presentable and should soo as well treat her hair beautifully and admirably for best results too. The natural quality promotes much more basically the skin's own definition and radiance. How considerate. Madam, do take care.
+Vania Thomas I personally used scissors, but you can use whatever you're comfortable with. I think if you're looking for a cleaner/sharper look, I would use clippers to shape your hairline up if that's what you're looking for.
have you ever tried to finger wave your hair? do you think it would be possible with your texture? i'm planning to bc soon & our textures seem similar!!
I use a durag. and I trim my back down abit so it won't look rough in the back. but I think you should definitely use a durag, it's much easier. xoxox.
+Shlea Mychelle Thanks for the tip! I've actually been using a durag as opposed to my scarf for a little over a week and it definitely works much better at preserving the style :)
Drink lots of water, that is key. Find a moisturizer that works well for your hair. FIND YOUR POROSITY LEVEL, it will really aid in growth. Protective styles are your best friend. Give your hair a break you don't need to always have it out. Find a regimen that will last you a week or even more. It's all about knowing your hair. At the beginning some products might work, but don't be scared to switch up your routine. Wishing you the best hair journey.
A scarf is a black girl's hair miracle worker
Yessssss
wat tha...
the scarf doesn’t do all the work, also she looks great either way.
I love this style on you! Very soft and your curl pattern is beautiful. I do this style often on my own twa. So easy to manage.
+virgoanbeauty Thank you! It really is!!

Hey! I know I'm late, but I would recommend using a denim brush to get your curls in the back to lay flat with a sleek look.
+Melanin Mermaid don't have one ahah but thanks for the tip :)
Nia this is sooooo pretty! I can't wait to slick mine down (:
+Tierra J Beauty Thank you!!

Sara Cee Alyssa's texture isn't like this though
Sara Cee If this works for her, why do she need to do what you are telling her, why should she change things?
MsShaye H she doesn't have to do anything it was just a tip
Taneisha Lyles not about texture just technique but okay lol
Sara Cee What she is doing works just fine with her!
Where does everyone find such cute scarves? I can never find them so decorative and pretty.
+Kay C The scarf I use I "borrowed" (took forever lol) from my mom years ago!
Kay C You can get them for cheap at Walmart or Sally's.
OK, thanks! I'll check them out.
Kay C np
ik this is a super old comment but I buy cheap summer infinity scarves from Walmart and use them on my head lol
Loved your hair when it started too . Good to be able to switch for us

I'm thumbs up #3,289 super cute and chic look on you love it!
Wow such a cute look
Question? Did you cut your hair down with scissors or didu use clippers. I wanna start over natural which one should use?
+Vania Thomas I personally used scissors, but you can use whatever you're comfortable with. I think if you're looking for a cleaner/sharper look, I would use clippers to shape your hairline up if that's what you're looking for.
Nia Long had a daughter! ! (: lol beautiful
Beautiful scarf!
+ Melissa Joseph thanks!!
have you ever tried to finger wave your hair? do you think it would be possible with your texture? i'm planning to bc soon & our textures seem similar!!
I use a durag. and I trim my back down abit so it won't look rough in the back. but I think you should definitely use a durag, it's much easier. xoxox.

+Nia Hope your welcome!! xoxoxox.

Laura Winslow after she cut her hair!

please, can anyone tell me the items she put on her hair. I'll love to try this.
Cute. What brand of gel did you use?
+Linda Reed Eco Styler Gel with Argan Oil
What about wrap strips to hold your hair down, then place scarf on. Works wonders for me. 😊
so pretty!! where did you get your scarf?
+Hair Addict thank you! :) I actually "borrowed" this scarf from my mom years ago. Haha. I have no idea where she got it from, sorry.
where did you find that beautiful scarf? I can never find anything like that?
+Charlie Tiger I got this from my mom years ago!
Ma'am, you do not have 4b hair. Your hair is 3c-4a
YASSSS LAURA WINSLOW
Which gel did you use girl? 💕
Can this work while your hair is relaxed from the relaxer or it has to be on curly hair?
