my hair is literally so thin and I definitely didn't consider how the products I'm using are weighing down my curls. :'( I used a deep conditioner, leave in conditioner, gel, and a serum to lock it all in. Then diffused it and it looked PERFECT. but an hour or 2 later I lost ALL of the definition in my curls, I was super bummed. but this is extremely helpful, thank you sm!!
María Maroni most CGM approved products you can buy at stores and even some higher end lines cause build up on the hair. There are only a few brands that are truly water soluble and do not cause build up: Raw Curls, Innersense, Mop Top, Jessicurl, Giovanni Eco Chic, and Kinky Curly. If you use some water soluble products and some that are not, your hair will not be able to heal from the inside.
Cowashing is definitely NOT for everyone, no matter how you do it or for how long you do it. My hair felt heavy, coated, and had NOOOOOO volume! Yes, I also have fine hair.
co washing was just terrible. It looked fine the first time I did it because my hair was quite dry, but by the second it looked disgusting. This should only be done to hair that severely suffers from lack of moisture. It will not work for most people, and even for those that it does work for they should still be clarifying every once in a while depending on their hair
What I discovered about my hair...an occassional co-wash does work well for my curly, low porosity, fine hair. I use a hair scalp massager shampoo brush and it effectively cleans both my hair and scalp. Gel products weigh my hair down and have to use it minimally. My hair loves creamy styling moisturizer products. (What could effect everyone's outcome could be your water too. We have very hard water.)
Wow, your hair is stunning! Can you recommend a website/video telling us how to make our own "hair diagnosis"? I have no idea whether my hair needs hydration, or nutrition, which products would fit my hair etc... Thank you =)
I’m sure you have gotten this a million times but if you aren’t ever Merida for Halloween (if you haven’t been already) that is a loss. You are so gorgeous and I have learned so much from your channel!
Already thank you so much! It sounds so simple but I’ve always hated using gel or product in my hair because of the crunchy after effect so I never used them... great advice!
I made the mistake of experimenting on almost everything a washday before a concert, new hair dye I had never used, new conditioner, new deep conditioner, and new styling technique!! I did like the result but it's something I don't recommend at all haha! my hair is fine, but it also gets dry easily, so it's quite tricky to find the balance between too much and too little, great video as always!! :)
Draws Heu try using more gel/mousse, try to don’t touch it during the day (specially when it’s wet) and protect it while you sleep. In the past I swear my hair was wavy but all that little changes make me make it to the third day with still great curls
The biggest thing that helped me was to use crazy amounts of a strong hold gel. Definitely sleep with it in a scarf or a pineapple (tied on the crown of your head), as well.
Camryn-Adrianna LOCKMAN You should check out “naturallycurly.com”. It was incredibly helpful when I transitioned back to curls. (As well as vids on here of course!). Good luck on your journey. I found that patience is a must... don’t give up! I transitioned back in January and it was one of the best things I’ve done for myself. I do a modified curly girl method. Remember, your hair, your rules! What works for one curly girl, may not work for another. Just have fun with it ❤️
Thank god a brit girl on here who does the CG method ive just started to do the CG method havent got the method down to a T yet but hopefully will get there in the end 🙂
My hair does NOT like coconut oil either! A little in rinse out conditioner is ok at times, but NOT in leave ins or when there's a coconut oil based curl cream
Coconut oil is not too heavy for your hair? I can not use any coconut oil or shea butter as main ingredients in the leave-in, they usually weigh my hair down. Mousses are lighter than gel, you can also give a try!
It’s interesting as my curls look similar to yours at the beginning of your curly journey. I’m wondering whether mine is curlier than I realise? How many ‘curl type’ steps did yours go up from the beginning to it’s current ‘curl type’ letter/number?
Hi! I'm new to your channel. Thank you for all the great tips. Any ideas for brides who want to wear their curly hair down on the big day? Would love if you would do a video, you have the perfect hair for it.
Off topic but.. This is the first one of your videos I watched, the whole way through I was thinking.. Your hair is the most similar to mine I've seen of all the 2C/3A youtubers. Then at the end you mentioned your name was Hannah, that's my name too 😂 Thanks for the video! I found the haircut info interesting, I usually don't get layers, but think I'll try this next cut
Curly girl mistake I made... using Devacurl. But luckily I was warned soon enough to throw Devacurl in the trash 🗑 as it’s such a dangerous product to use. Be extremely careful of Devacurl lovely curly girls
My hair is to my waist and sleeping with it up on top of my head is uncomfortable. I sleep on a satin case, but the first bonnet I tried was too tight and the elastic have me headaches. Ok...maybe I'm a sissy😁. My hair isn't too hard to refresh, but my night routine isn't what it could be. Maybe I need to try a different bonnet....
@Rose Renee Thank you! Yes, that's probably the method I'm most successful with. I have lots of shorter layers so when I wake up I look like I've been through a high wind 🤣. Probably still better for my husband to see than a bonnet tho 😉.
What I really love, is that you ask for thumbs up and subscribe after the video, because by then I know if it did help me and if I liked the video. I really don't get why so many people ask for the thumbs up at the beginning. Because by then I don't know and after the video I just forget to like it. So thanks for the reminder at the end of your videos and please keep doing that for people like me who would just forget otherwise. And of course THANKS for your great videos, I'm not finished watching all of them but I will keep on watching til I have because I did like every single one of them so far.
I used to have super crazy curly hair as a little child but then my mum would blow dry it straight as she skipped the curly gene in our fam but I am trying to get it back but the top layer of my hair I find hard to get curly and the back as it is harder to scrunch and longer
I know it's not helpful but I literally travel two hours to Miami from my hometown to get my hair cut 😂 I was growing my hair from a buzzcut and got two different trims where they cut too much cuz they weren't used to curly hair and it made it way shorter so I decided to go to a specialist for trims at least until it grows out to my shoulders
I can never get my curls to last more than a day or so. On day 2 i just have a lot of frizz and my curls are basically gone so usually i just soak my hair completely to refresh it. Is soaking my hair everyday in the shower bad for it? I’m new to all of these different methods so I’d really love some tips!
Hey, soaking your hair everyday could potentially cause damage to the cuticles as everytime you wet and dry your hair they swell and shrink, which I've heard can make the hair fragile. At least that is my understanding. When I first started out, my curls didn't last that well, but now I properly protect them overnight and take the care to give my hair what it needs on wash day, my curls last better. Perhaps try adding a bit more product on wash day? I find strong hold gels really help :)
Emma Wishart you could spray a mix of conditioner and water onto your hair to reactivate the gels, I know it’ll work for gels whose first ingredient is water. This is how I refresh my curls...
Any tips on what to use when you’ve been outside and it’s a bit frizzy? I’m looking for something like a lightweight oil but I have fine hair and it gets easily weighed down?
I wish I had learned SOTC too I wish I learned not to part my hair it makes my roots fall flat and get pulled straight also to comb upside down and only in the shower for the same roots reason..also to fluff it out at the roots when dry.
Can someone help. My roots to mid hair are flat but my ends are curly. I tried everything like plopping and using denman brush but nothing worked at all
My hair is the same but I have research that there may be product build up. Clarify your hair with a clarifying shampoo or just anything without silicone. You can also use baking soda method. Style your hair in sections. Get layers. Or apply products closer to the root. If your hair is long it might just be because your hair is being weighed down. Most of these don’t work for me but I hope they work for you.
What do you contribute to the color difference in your before and after hair pics? Your hair color was more dull and now the color is more dark and healthier looking. I have a similar color to uour before picture
Jessica Sconzert Honestly I think my hair just looks a different colour in different lighting! It’s not changed colour drastically over the years, but it has lightened and got less ginger with age - not really sure why. I think it gets lighter in the summer too when the sun bleaches it x
My curly frizzy hair looks great after I wash and style but the days after FRIZZ FRIZZ FRIZZ !! I live in Florida so a lot of humidity. I've been using Quidad but still get frizzy the 2nd 3rd days. Any suggestions?
Do your products have glycerin in? Depending on the weather (!) glycerin can cause more frizz as the molecules reach out to take water from the air...Manes by Mell has a video explaining it!
I wash my hair everyday cause it gets oily fast but my hairs maybe 2b or 2c, if I don't use heat on it its straight to maybe my eyebrows and then it turns curly, but like frizzy messy curly not cute curly, and tips on how to stop the frizz, I've tried to stop dry brushing it and drying it with a t-shirt but neither help
it may be that your hair is damaged. Try to not brush it at ALL when your hair is wet and only use the t-shirt for about 15 minutes. Then let your hair breathe for a bit. Another reason it can get oily is because you wash it everyday. Washing your hair everyday strips the hair. Check out Brad Mondo xD. Also when your hair is wet try to scrunch it like how she does in the video, it really does help. You may be 2c-3a. I used to think I was 2a-2b. I later on thought I was 2b-2c. Now I am realizing my hair was damaged af and my hair is actually 3a. Also, a leave in conditioner plus a gel might help with frizz. Try putting your conditioner only on the bottom of your hair, not your scalp. And very minimal product on ur scalp.
I think it's pretty much certain that everyone hates their curly hair at one point or another, or has that moment where they feel like they are less because other people have nice straight or wavy hair. I hated my hair for so long, I tried to straighten it out, cut it off, and hide it away. It may not be what you wanted, but it's what you were born with, so it's best to learn to love it, and to love yourself. It can take time, but the reward is worth it.
It depends on you. I wash my hair 2-3 times per week, when I go to the gym 3 times. I do not like my hair looks greasy or it smells bad, so at the first sign of that, I wash it! :D. Many persons can be 1 week or even more without washing their hair, they say no problem! I have thin hair, I can not do that, sooo! Everyone's hair is different, try to do what's best for you! :)
If your hair gets oily easily, I suggest washing it more often but not too often. Wait and see when it starts getting oily and weighed down and time that to how often you wash your hair.
I have followed all the videos. I was my hair diffuse it and it looks amazing then within about 2 hours or looks dry and frizzy. What can't I do please?
I personally wear a mesh bonnet to bed, rather than a silky one. It's a lot more breathable and the holes are tiny enough that the hair doesn't get ruffled 😀 (made mine from an old laundry delicates bag!)
Hi, I have just started curly hair journey using curl defining cream and flax seed gel. But my hair is not getting dry and it's giving me an ugly oil look. What do I do with this?
Try scrunching it a ton. Also, you want to spread out the gel and oil throughout your hair but without a brush. Make sure you don't put conditioner on top of your scalp a ton, only a bit to massage it. Same with styling products. Also, make sure to not brush your hair while wet and protect it at night. You also may be washing your hair too often if u are producing tons of oil.
I made the mistake of putting way too much products into my hair. I overloaded with gel and it made my hair exactly how you describe it. Don’t use too much product, you can always add more but it takes a lot of effort to get it out again.
I use gel as a seal for my products. My hair gets super dry so I have put together products that work well. I start with either a detangler or primer. The styling includes my curl cream which is very light and moisturising. I finish with my gel. I use a liquid gel so it doesn’t build crazy or weigh it down. Also, try using a hair serum when scrunching it out. That genuinely helps out a bunch 😊
Hi! is there an actual difference between low poo shampoo's and clarifying shampoo's? I'm a little confused, in your list of fave low poo's u mention the bouncy curl claryfing shampoo, but is it low poo or claryfing? 😅
Low poo will have less of the strong cleansers in them. Some people that use clarifying shampoo too often find it strips too much of the hairs of natural oils.
A clarifying shampoo is basically a shampoo that strips away everything. I tend to use it once a month to remove product build up. Low poos you can use for the rest of the time. It’s gentle on the hair and scalp but it does make your hair stripped. :)
Hey! I usually wash my hair with a “low-poo” once a week-ish (about every 4-7 days) depending on the week. Then occasionally I will “clarify” with a sulphate shampoo to get rid of any buildup x
I think your hair is more wavy than curly. Not tryna hate but it’s more on the wavy pattern than curly like people with the 3c-4’s. Also just wondering are you of mixed race?
Dude she’s white and looks it. And her hair is curly it’s literally in ringlets... I’ve seen white people with literally kinky hair, usually they r Jewish. You need to get out more.

I finally found someone who has fine, curly red hair like me!!! This is such a good day :)
So glad I've found an English based curly girl with similar hair type!
Check out Welshiecurlgirl on Instagram too!
I'm just starting out with my curly hair journey! I've been doing research for hours and stumbled here. Thanks for the great tips!
Same, I just started too 😂
I’ve been doing CGM for 2 years and only recently discovered the difference between curly girl approved and water soluble. Game changer. 💯
Can you explain to me please?
María Maroni most CGM approved products you can buy at stores and even some higher end lines cause build up on the hair. There are only a few brands that are truly water soluble and do not cause build up: Raw Curls, Innersense, Mop Top, Jessicurl, Giovanni Eco Chic, and Kinky Curly. If you use some water soluble products and some that are not, your hair will not be able to heal from the inside.
Cowashing is definitely NOT for everyone, no matter how you do it or for how long you do it.
My hair felt heavy, coated, and had NOOOOOO volume!
Yes, I also have fine hair.
It also depends on the water. If it’s hard, it can lead to build up afaik
co washing was just terrible. It looked fine the first time I did it because my hair was quite dry, but by the second it looked disgusting. This should only be done to hair that severely suffers from lack of moisture.

My hair loves creamy styling moisturizer products. (What could effect everyone's outcome could be your water too. We have very hard water.)
I use Color Wow's Dream Filter between every couple of shampoos to get rid of mineral buildup bc of hard water.
There’s so many things I wish I knew too 😕
Wow, your hair is stunning! Can you recommend a website/video telling us how to make our own "hair diagnosis"? I have no idea whether my hair needs hydration, or nutrition, which products would fit my hair etc... Thank you =)
My hair has been a nightmare lately! Really decided to work harder to keep maintaining the curls, so much I didn’t know about an actual routine 😂
I’m sure you have gotten this a million times but if you aren’t ever Merida for Halloween (if you haven’t been already) that is a loss. You are so gorgeous and I have learned so much from your channel!
Hahaha I’ve done Fiona from Shrek, which was super fun, but yes Merida is on my list👌🏼Thank you 🥰
Thanks for the tips! :)
Can you make a video on how to protect curly hair during summer (Beach, sun, swimming pool)?
I know penny Tovar has a video on that topic
Swavy curly courtney just made a video about that!
Already thank you so much! It sounds so simple but I’ve always hated using gel or product in my hair because of the crunchy after effect so I never used them... great advice!
I made the mistake of experimenting on almost everything a washday before a concert, new hair dye I had never used, new conditioner, new deep conditioner, and new styling technique!!

Great quality video, love this and love your hair xx
You remind me of Natalie from Love Actually :)
This was so helpful! And your hair is so pretty. Thank you!
Can you also review the curls blueberry bliss hair milk and control jelly!
Also for me I need layers and short hair looks best. If I had learned that it woulda saved me a lot of heartache 🤷🏽♀️
Just started following you. You are so fun! Keep going! And amazing tips!
Hi can you do a tutorial styling your curly with gel? Air dry. I don't have timed to diffuse daily
I use a bamboo pillowcase and its amazing
god your hair is just gorgeous😍
Girl how did you get your hair so long?? It's so pretty 😍😍
Your voice is so soothing
Your hair is beautiful!’
Thank you for sharing your tips!
When I just washed my hair it’s always super curly, but when I sleep they just go out and my hair just gets wavy! I don’t know how to fix it😬
Draws Heu try using more gel/mousse, try to don’t touch it during the day (specially when it’s wet) and protect it while you sleep. In the past I swear my hair was wavy but all that little changes make me make it to the third day with still great curls

Ana Mercedes Martinez Torres thank you so much! I actually only own a curl smoothie from Maui! You have any good recommendations?
Blue Redyns thank you! That’s a really great tip, I have to try to tie my hair at night, thanks!
Draws Heu I really love not your mother, their curl line gives me life and I think it’s really economic 😁
I starting my curly girl journey soon! I just got no sulfate, no paraben and no silicone shampoo and conditioner!:-)
You should check out the r/curlyhair subreddit, I have found it very helpful for finding products and information. Good luck on your journey! 😊

2 months later: How is it going?
Thank god a brit girl on here who does the CG method ive just started to do the CG method havent got the method down to a T yet but hopefully will get there in the end 🙂
Beautiful hair! I have thick curly hair and it always looks frizzy. Also, very dry.
Wow hair goals!!
This video has been so insightful! Thank you!
My hair does NOT like coconut oil either! A little in rinse out conditioner is ok at times, but NOT in leave ins or when there's a coconut oil based curl cream
My hair is thick. It only seems to enjoy almond or argan oil blends as its leave in. It makes incredible curls. If I put anything else...oh boy...
My hair is so fine I can only use a coconut cream and a little gel. Or it’s too heavy and gets weighed down
same dude. same 👌🏼
Coconut oil is not too heavy for your hair? I can not use any coconut oil or shea butter as main ingredients in the leave-in, they usually weigh my hair down. Mousses are lighter than gel, you can also give a try!
Hey Hannah! Enjoying following you here and on Insta! My curl and color are very similar to yours. I'm growing it out and following the method. Thx!

You're so bloody cute. Thankyou so much for all these tips. It really is so helpful. It's such a minefield. XXx
A minefield is the best description of curls 🤣
I tried the coconut oil thing, for too long! It seemed to work for everyone, why not me?!?! I look back on it, how embarrassing 😆
11:14 I think your hair looks quite nice in both these pictures! But I wasn't there so idk as well as you.
Curly girl mistake I made... using Devacurl. But luckily I was warned soon enough to throw Devacurl in the trash 🗑 as it’s such a dangerous product to use. Be extremely careful of Devacurl lovely curly girls

@Rose Renee Thank you! Yes, that's probably the method I'm most successful with. I have lots of shorter layers so when I wake up I look like I've been through a high wind 🤣. Probably still better for my husband to see than a bonnet tho 😉.
I had the same problem had to shop around a lot
i find if i loosely tie a scrunchy around it only once or twice it works very well
Can you pleaseeeeeee review the camile rose naturals line especially the curl maker and the moisture milk!
Do you get a Deva cut then? Since you mentioned the curl specialist cuts your hair dry.
What I really love, is that you ask for thumbs up and subscribe after the video, because by then I know if it did help me and if I liked the video. I really don't get why so many people ask for the thumbs up at the beginning. Because by then I don't know and after the video I just forget to like it. So thanks for the reminder at the end of your videos and please keep doing that for people like me who would just forget otherwise.
And of course THANKS for your great videos, I'm not finished watching all of them but I will keep on watching til I have because I did like every single one of them so far.
I used to have super crazy curly hair as a little child but then my mum would blow dry it straight as she skipped the curly gene in our fam but I am trying to get it back but the top layer of my hair I find hard to get curly and the back as it is harder to scrunch and longer
if you were to not go to a curly specialist hairdresser, what would you ask for? I live rurally so there are no specialists around here :(

Is there anything else your hairdresser does, other than long layers and cutting curl by curl?
Hi can you do a tutorial using giovanni hair gel?
Loretta Rendon check out my hair routine video 😘
What is your hair type? You've got gorgeous hair ❤️
Any tips on what to use when you’ve been outside and it’s a bit frizzy? I’m looking for something like a lightweight oil but I have fine hair and it gets easily weighed down?
I wish I had learned SOTC too I wish I learned not to part my hair it makes my roots fall flat and get pulled straight also to comb upside down and only in the shower for the same roots reason..also to fluff it out at the roots when dry.
Not parting makes all the difference
Hi, what do you guys mean by not parting please?
Where do you get your hair cut?? Xx
Thank you!
Have you ever used the not your mother's curly hair products?
Can you show me how you grew your hair
Maris Ogechi Nwokoro I have a video about that x
Do you have a hairdresser you’d recommend at CurlTalk?
Do feel free to experiment for the day of an important event, but make sure you have time to fix it if it goes really bad lmao
Can someone help. My roots to mid hair are flat but my ends are curly. I tried everything like plopping and using denman brush but nothing worked at all

have you tried finger coiling?
I really felt the last one 😂 I thought it was just me who f*cked up her hair on special occasions 😅😅😅
Ana Mercedes Martinez Torres Hahaha, it’s the worst isn’t it, cause you know your hair can look so much better 😂
My hair always looks perfect when I have to stay at home 😂 like now in quarantine

I still don't really understand what breakage is. Can anyone help?
anyone?
What shampoo do you recommend?
I have very thin hair. My hair has lost a lot of it curls. Any suggestions?

try swapping your shampoo for a light cowash/cleansing conditiner every wash. curlyswavycourtney has a video on how to cowash oily hair.
my hair looks exactly like hers and i hate my hair !!!😭😭😭😭
Why do you hate your hair?
I think it's pretty much certain that everyone hates their curly hair at one point or another, or has that moment where they feel like they are less because other people have nice straight or wavy hair. I hated my hair for so long, I tried to straighten it out, cut it off, and hide it away. It may not be what you wanted, but it's what you were born with, so it's best to learn to love it, and to love yourself. It can take time, but the reward is worth it.
How many times should I wash my curly hair?
It depends on you. I wash my hair 2-3 times per week, when I go to the gym 3 times. I do not like my hair looks greasy or it smells bad, so at the first sign of that, I wash it! :D. Many persons can be 1 week or even more without washing their hair, they say no problem! I have thin hair, I can not do that, sooo! Everyone's hair is different, try to do what's best for you! :)
How do you only wash your hair once/twice a week or so ? My hair gets oily and the curls/waves look bad the third day
If your hair gets oily easily, I suggest washing it more often but not too often. Wait and see when it starts getting oily and weighed down and time that to how often you wash your hair.
HI
I have followed all the videos. I was my hair diffuse it and it looks amazing then within about 2 hours or looks dry and frizzy. What can't I do please?
Could try using a stronger hold gel?
@@hanzcurls I use cantu curling gel
low key wish u lived in US so you can help me with products lol
Hi, I can't stand the feel of satin/silk materials. Is there any other option for how to protect my hair when I sleep?
Hey! I've seen some people sleep on a bamboo pillowcase - this may be an option for you?
Thank you, definitely something I'll try.
I personally wear a mesh bonnet to bed, rather than a silky one. It's a lot more breathable and the holes are tiny enough that the hair doesn't get ruffled 😀 (made mine from an old laundry delicates bag!)
Hi, I have just started curly hair journey using curl defining cream and flax seed gel. But my hair is not getting dry and it's giving me an ugly oil look. What do I do with this?
Try scrunching it a ton. Also, you want to spread out the gel and oil throughout your hair but without a brush. Make sure you don't put conditioner on top of your scalp a ton, only a bit to massage it. Same with styling products. Also, make sure to not brush your hair while wet and protect it at night. You also may be washing your hair too often if u are producing tons of oil.
I made the mistake of putting way too much products into my hair. I overloaded with gel and it made my hair exactly how you describe it. Don’t use too much product, you can always add more but it takes a lot of effort to get it out again.
Do you get your hair cut or do your cut it yourself?
I get it cut by a curl specialist :) I talk more about this is my Q&A vid x
When I SOTC I lose all my definition and gets frizzy in a few hours. Does anyone have some advice for that?
Me too! Every time! It just looks dry and frizzy
Use a leave in under the gel and make sure the gel has a pretty strong hold :) also using a sealing oil to break the cast may help with the frizz
Thank you
I use gel as a seal for my products. My hair gets super dry so I have put together products that work well.
I start with either a detangler or primer.
The styling includes my curl cream which is very light and moisturising.
I finish with my gel. I use a liquid gel so it doesn’t build crazy or weigh it down.
Also, try using a hair serum when scrunching it out. That genuinely helps out a bunch 😊
Whatever liked
Hi! is there an actual difference between low poo shampoo's and clarifying shampoo's? I'm a little confused, in your list of fave low poo's u mention the bouncy curl claryfing shampoo, but is it low poo or claryfing? 😅
That product has a bit of a misleading name. It's definitely more of a low poo.
Low poo will have less of the strong cleansers in them. Some people that use clarifying shampoo too often find it strips too much of the hairs of natural oils.
A clarifying shampoo is basically a shampoo that strips away everything. I tend to use it once a month to remove product build up.
Low poos you can use for the rest of the time. It’s gentle on the hair and scalp but it does make your hair stripped. :)
What is your hair type
Is it actually nessecary to clarify if u only use low poo and don't co wash?
Carmen Declerck if you use hair products in styling. It can all build up
yes it is
Im the second
:
This might be a dumb question, but do you wash your hair with that shampoo multiple times a week? Is that the only shampoo you use?
Hey! I usually wash my hair with a “low-poo” once a week-ish (about every 4-7 days) depending on the week. Then occasionally I will “clarify” with a sulphate shampoo to get rid of any buildup x
@@hanzcurls Ahh thank you!!
I think your hair is more wavy than curly. Not tryna hate but it’s more on the wavy pattern than curly like people with the 3c-4’s. Also just wondering are you of mixed race?
Deltaz wavy is a type of curl just like coily kinky is a type of curl I always have to clarify this
S is wavy. C is curly Some just have small curls for wave pattern
She literally has ringlets. How is that not curly?
It's a loose curl sure, but it's still curly I'd say.
Dude she’s white and looks it. And her hair is curly it’s literally in ringlets... I’ve seen white people with literally kinky hair, usually they r Jewish. You need to get out more.
