So, hey guys it's alessia and welcome back to my channel today, you guys are finally getting the curly hair, routine yeah yeah. Finally, i'm actually sorry same thing as a same thing as a skincare routine. I kind of took forever, but it's here it's here, okay, but in all seriousness it took me forever to find products that actually work. For me, i'm still kind of testing out products, but these products that i have in this video are extremely like this. I love them. I love them. I dropped a curl routine on tick tock like almost a year ago. It just i used diva curl um. If you guys didn't, know diva curl, no, just no, not diva curl. Don'T don't do that to yourself, i'm not trying to bash but diva curl kind of ruined my curl pattern. It made my curls really dry it just like in the moment it actually worked extremely good, like i absolutely loved it in the moment. My curls looked so nice, but since i used it for a long period of time, my hair was not. It didn't end up. Cute, it's kind of back now, like my curl pattern and stuff like it's moisturized and whatever but yeah. I do not suggest diva girl. I don't suggest it also. If you guys didn't know, i cut my hair, really short um. I asked for like an inch, but my whole head got chopped up that wasn't really cute, but i low-key do suggest getting a big chop, because my hair grew back healthier than ever before. It wasn't as healthy as it is now because ever since it got the big accidental chop um, my hair grew back really healthy. So i do suggest that okay, but yeah this video is basically just the products i use in my routine um filled with a bunch of hacks in between so stay tuned and watch the whole thing to get every hack and to see how to use the products. What they do and what they are. I also have a specific order for everything and, like i also explain that in the video so like yeah another little like tip, i have really fast. Don'T. I should be telling this to myself: don't touch your hair like during the day, because it just makes it really frizzy. So me, i have a habit of touching my hair, i'm either doing this or i'm twirling it it's just. It makes it frizzy. So don't do that don't do it don't do it! Okay, but yeah enough of me talking. You probably want to kill me, but let's just get straight into the video. I hope you guys enjoy. Okay, so i just got into the shower. I just put on my makeup and whatever, but my hair is fresh and before we get started, i'm just gon na do my little shower routine and you thought you were gon na come in the shower with me not today, not today, okay, but in all seriousness, These are amazing, they're, the shea moisture curl and shine shampoo and conditioner. I love these because they really help to define your curls like after you're out of the shower, so i just love them they're, the only shampoo and conditioner that have actually done me good. The rest i've used were not. They were not good, they didn't work okay and like once or twice a week. I don't know if you guys have heard of it, but something called clarifying shampoo you're going to want to use that. Basically, what it does like this is my favorite brand of it. It just works the best for me, but what it does it? Just strips your hair of the gunk that, like like the build up whatever, but usually when your hair has a bunch of build up in it, it looks really unhealthy. It gets way down it's just it's not cute your curls get weighed down. Your hair goes like straight at the top. It'S just no so twice a week. You'Re gon na want to use clarifying shampoo or you could use apple, cider, vinegar and then just spray. It all over your hair and just rub it in that. Does the exact same thing but yeah, it's just more like concentrated and then, if my hair is ever feeling dry or i just like want to add back some moisture, i use the shea moisture leave-in conditioner in the shower. I just replace it with my conditioner sometimes and then just leave it in my hair, wash my body and then just rinse it off when you're done so yeah. That, basically just adds moisture to your hair, because curly hair moisture is the number it's the key to curly hair like if your hair's dry, your curls, are going to be disgustingly like they're, just not they're, not going to be cute. You have to moisturize your hair, whether like whatever products you use, make sure it's moisturized and not dry, okay, and i really suggest getting a denman brush. I don't know why i love it. I just do like it helps with breakage. First of all, and then, when i brush it out, it's just like it's easier than a normal brush like it gets knots out really fast. It'S also good for when you have products in your hair, and you just want to like brush through the product, so it like gets everywhere so yeah, okay and a quick little tip. Trust me on this. One use scrunchies, don't use normal elastics if you're not doing like an actual like slick back hairstyle if you're, just like putting your hair up for like out of the shower or whatever like to go to. Bed use a scrunchie because normal elastics cause a lot of breakage you're gon na wake up, take it out and your whole head of hair is gon na, be on the elastic. Even if you don't notice, hair loss from elastics. It'S there trust me and even if you don't get hair loss from it, it breaks the hair and causes split ends. So yeah i suggest using scrunchies and i don't know what my hair type is: it's either 3a or 3b, but like almost every day, i end up with ringlets. So i don't know, i couldn't tell you, but the thing with my hair is like when it's wet. It'S not it's not curly, no! Okay, let's get started with the actual like routine. Now, okay, so i start off with the styling spray. It basically just preps your hair for all the products and it adds a bunch of volume and adds shine. So i absolutely love this because it just makes the finished product look like clean. Okay, this step has to be necessary in every single curly routine that there is, and it's just like curl cream. I don't use both on the same like days. I switch between them, but i prefer this one better. It makes them really like soft, but basically what curl cream does it just preps your curls like again, it actually forms the curls and then later, when we put in the gel and whatever it just like, holds the curls okay. So today i'll be using this one because, like i just i just love it so, okay, so the next step is gel. Again, i don't use both in the same days. I just pick one over the other. Usually i pick this one because i like it better but basically like i said before they just lock the curls in like they just hold them so, okay, but the next thing i do is i use a microfiber towel to just get any extra moisture out of My hair and i use it other than a normal towel, because, first of all, it makes my curls look so much better and normal towels cause a lot of breakage in your hair, so microfiber towels are really good for that, so leading into that, the next step Is to diffuse your hair, almost every curly girl diffuses their hair. You don't have to, but i highly suggest it because it just makes your curls look way better and one thing with diffusing is: i see a lot of girls diffusing their hair until it's just like damp and what that does. It just makes it really crunchy, and i know you guys have that struggle. It just makes it really crunchy and frizzy, so i suggest drying it like a hundred percent fully like. I don't want to see one damp spot like 100 dry, it. Okay, my hair is 100 dry. It'S not damp anymore. This isn't like mandatory, but if you want, you could find a part or you could just keep it to the side. Whatever you could keep the messy look, it doesn't matter, but i like a middle part because i just feel like it looks the best on me. Okay and the last thing you're going to want to do is honestly works wonders for me. I didn't use it before, but it just finishes everything off like it's amazing, hairspray and volumizing spray. It just holds them and adds volume, and i, like i love volume personally so yeah. Basically, it's just a given like this holds your curls and doesn't make it flat, and this just adds volume. So this hairspray is amazingly good. Matrix is an extremely good brand. This isn't like my go-to one. This one is: what's it eight hours, my other one, i think, is like 18 hours insert picture in here, but the ambitions were sold out so but this one's still good look at those curls. The micros have not looked this nice in a while period. Okay, but the last step i do is use coconut oil and use a pick to tease it. So, basically, what the coconut oil does it just moisturizes your hair, even more because, like i said before, the key to curls is moisture and i feel like coconut oil, for me just helps to find them even more and it adds a bunch of shine which i, Like also really quick, i do recommend a heat protector, just like a spray or whatever, before you diffuse your hair, i'm out of mine. So i didn't couldn't really include that, but i do recommend that okay and it looks like we're done uh. My curls actually turned out pretty good. I cannot, i cannot lie, they turned out really good. Thankfully, i'm recording this because but yeah that was my curly hair routine for every day um. I do have a changed routine for like day two and day three with obviously less products. So let me know in the comments, if you want a video about that, but yeah, i really hope you guys enjoyed this video um. You guys have been begging for this. Like begging, so it's finally here, finally, here i'm gon na just make this sweet and short leave a thumbs up.

hennessy ocasio: A reminder that there is such thing as loose curls, there are three spectrums of curly hair: coily, curly, wavy. Her hair ranging from 2b to 3a (curly & wavy). You can have more than one curl pattern, most people do. As for the wavy haired people it’s better & healthier to follow a curly hair routine because your hair is not straight and will only cause damage and frizz if you treat it as such.
