Curly Haircuts
In this day and age it feels impossible to get to the point of a video. So enjoy a full curly hair tutorial in 10 seconds flat. Do you have any questions about styling your curly hair? 👇 . . . #curlyhairroutine #hairwashday #curlrefresh #curlyhairproducts #refreshingcurls
I’m such a sucker for a good before and after, but I would lie if I didn’t say the cut and wash weren’t some of my favorite moments of a curly hair styling session! These are the main moments that define whether someone’s curly hair will turn out correctly. If you take the weight off and give your hair some love, of course they’ll look amazing! But (and I’ll forever scream this from the rooftops) the products you use while washing and styling matter SO 👏 MUCH 👏 So if you want my favorite curly hair products, comment “LOCKS” and I’ll DM you a link! . . . #curlyhairroutine #curlrefreshingday #curlyhairspecialist #curlyhairtips #curlspecialist
If you use more than 3 products on your curly hair, you’re doing your hair a disservice. Do you need product to help define and hold your curls? Yes. Do you need 5-6 products caked into your hair to make that a reality? NO. You don’t have to drop hundreds of dollars to have beautiful curls when, in fact, keeping your routine simple is BETTER for your hair too. To avoid creating excess buildup and weighing down your hair, try using just these 3 products on freshly washed hair… Gel. Foam. Hairspray. Boom. That’s it. I’ll share all the curly hair tips I’ve got! So if you have any questions, let me know! And tell me if you try using less products and how it’s improved your curly hair 👇 . . . #curlsetting #favoritecurlyproducts #curlyhairproducts #curlyhairtips #curlspecialist
Curl-Refresh
The fastest way to see your curl results? Diffusing. The fastest way to get discouraged by frizz? Yes, also diffusing. Diffusing your hair can feel really overwhelming, but I promise once you figure out exactly how to utilize this tool correctly, your curls will look better than they EVER have. The key here is to use the tips I mentioned in this video and practice, practice, practice! Comment “VOLUME” and I’ll send you a link to my fave diffuser! . . . #clienthairtransformation #curlyhaircut #curlyhairproducts #curlspecialist #ohiocurlspecialist
Curly hair bush? Say less. Finding the perfect brush for curly hair can be SO difficult.

Hopefully this video from a curl hair stylist herself can clear that up for you 🫶Let me know if you have any questions on these brushes for curly hair and I’ll try to answer it for ya!

Curly hair products mentioned in video: 1) Miche Gel To Foam Styler: 6/10 Did not help my hair dry faster like it said it would, consistency really good, smell is overpowering, ingredients aren’t great, price point is pretty good. 2) Miche Sculpt Curl Defining Gel: 7/10 The smell was overpowering and gave me a headache. The ingredients are great, the price point is good, the consistency is okay but hard to scoop out of the tub when your hands are wet. 3) Osis Curl Jam: 7/10 The smell was a little strong, price was okay, ingredients were not great, application was terrible, but it held up nicely. 4) I Create Definition Styling Foam: 7/10 A stiff hold and feels like straw and crispy, ingredients great, consistency is great, used sparingly, but on its own is not great. 5) Big Poppa: 4.5/10 Definition is great, hold is awful, price point is great, ingredients are alright, and easy to scoop out and use. 6) Curl Wow Curl Shook: 1/10 Smell was fine, price point is high, ingredients not great, application not good, hold is non-existent. 7) JVN Complete Airdry Cream: 6.5/10 You have to use a lot for it to work, price point is expensive for how much you use, good if you like bigger/undefined hair, smell fine, consistency is great, ingredients aren’t terrible, hold isn’t great. 8) Amika Curl Corps: 5.5/10 Smell is fine, consistency is fine, ingredients are okay, price is extremely high, held up nicely. 9) Olaplex No. 10: 2/10 Does not have frizz control at all, consistency nice, smell too strong, price is too high for the amount you get, ingredients not good, hold not there. 10) A Curl Can Dream by Matrix: 0.5/10 Hold non-existent, smell not great, ingredients not great, price point is fine. Don’t waste your money. 11) Doux Mousse Def: 8.5/10 Consistency great, it’s a one and done product, ingredients not great. 12) Umberto Giannini Curl Jelly: 6/10 Price point great, consistency nice, ingredients not great, hold not great.
