What'S going on everyone welcome back to my channel and if you're new here my name is Alex Costa, please make sure to hit that subscribe button below to become part of our YouTube family. Now, as you guys probably already know, I don't wake up with my hair. Like this, it takes a little bit of work to get to my ideal hair style and I've always had wavy hair and had a lot of trouble with in the past, because I wanted to try different hairstyles and my hand was just so stubborn. It just didn't work, and I know a lot of you guys who don't have straight hair, probably share my pain and before we go any further, I'm not saying that curly or wavy hair is better or worse than straight hair. I think there are some amazing cuts and styles for both types. What I'm saying, though, is let's be honest. The grass is always greener on the other side. So if you have curly, hair and you're trying to manage those curls or waves, then I have five hot tips for you and stick around, because I'm saving the best for last tip number one before anything else. Your hair needs to be healthy and shampoo as little as possible, because that will dry your hair out. I only shampoo once or twice a week now and that has helped me so much. You can wash it with water and condition it every single day, but definitely try to shampoo less often also get used to applying a hydrating mask. Once in a while. I used this Moroccan oil mask for 15 minutes once a week and it detangles my hair, and it makes it feel really soft and healthy. Another product that you add to your collection is some argan oil. I applied just a few drops after every wash and before I style my hair, and it does wonders, plus it's really affordable, tip number two you're gon na need the right haircut and that's because the right haircut is the foundation to every single hair style and if You'Re, looking for a new hairstyle then make sure to watch some of my videos like this one on the best hairstyle of 2017 or some of the other ones that I've listed for you in the description below this video. If you have really curly hair, then I'd say: keep it short around 3 inches. Not here, wavy hair then go a little bit longer at 4 to 5 inches, but guys everyone's hair is different. What I would suggest is enhance what you have best. So if you have really nice hair grow it out and show it off to the world and then, if your hair is kind of hard to manage, then what I would say is: keep it short and make your life easier. That way, tip number three: let's learn about some tools. You can use to manage those curls. So now your hair is healthy. You have the right haircut. So, let's learn about some of the tools and the actual process of managing those curls. First thing: you're gon na need is a blow-dryer, and even if you don't have curly hair, you should get a blow-dryer anyway. Don'T be ashamed, don't be embarrassed, it's not just for girls, it's just a hair dryer. What you want to do is as soon as you get out of the shower towel dry, your hair and don't be aggressive, because you don't want to lose your hair. You just want to get rid of some of the water, then just blow-dry right away, and this will help shape each of your hair strands to your desired hair style. And if you want slicked straight hair, you can just use a paddle brush and just brush it all back. For me, I like adding a lot of volume to my hairstyle, so I'll blow-dry it upwards and towards the back everybody's hair is different. I personally have some trouble with some waves right here in this area, so I pay extra attention to that area when I'm blow-drying and sometimes depending on the day or the weather I'll, even bring out the straightener to manage any stubborn waves or curls also guys just A reminder that you should never apply heat to your hair without using some heat protectant products. First, remember that my first tip to you was to keep your hair healthy. I'Ve been using either this Brazilian Blowout one or this super affordable spray from Tresemme, which i included in my video for best hair products of 2017. I'M also gon na leave a link for that video in the description, so you can check it out after this one tip number four you're gon na need the right finishing products. If you have curly or wavy hair and you straighten it out blows your eye day. You did all of these things. You want to make sure that you maintain that hair style throughout the day. Obviously so my tip to you would be to get some medium to ideally high hold clay that will give you the best and longest hold, and sometimes that's not even enough. You know sometimes I'll spend a lot of time doing my hair, it looks perfect. I go outside and it's windy, and so what I would say is I would use a little bit of hairspray just to keep that from happening. I'M gon na list some options for you in the description below tip number five here is an amazing thing. Tip number five is probably my favorite one of them all. I'Ve always had wavy hair and I tried growing it out a bunch of times and it just looked like so I kind of gave up there for a while, and I thought I probably have bad hair or difficult hair. So let's stop there. But let me tell you you can do a lot to your hair. Okay, all you need is some research and a lot of patience. There are ways to permanently get rid of waves and curls. If that's what you want, and if you have straight hair, don't worry, you can do the same to get curls in your hair. I'Ve chemically relaxed my hair a few times to get rid of all the waves and it was awesome. It finally gave me the chance to experience different hair styles. Then I learned about the Brazilian Blowout and I instantly loved the results and, more importantly, how soft my hair was after the process between the two I would go to blowout chemically. Relaxing your hair can dry. It out and it's definitely more damaging to your hair. The blowout actually makes your hair feel amazing, so they both last about three months, and I have a video on each of these processes listed in the description below. So you can go and watch it. If that's what you're? Looking for guys, if you made it this far, I'm gon na ask you for two quick favors one. Please follow me on instagram at Alex Kosta.

Comments
Alex Costa: Hey guys! What is your hair type?
aaronroach: People with CURLY hair know that most of these do not work! Number one rule for curly hair: never towel or blow dry hair. You must air dry or it’ll be incredibly frizzy.
N M: Tips for people that want to embrace their curls instead of straightening it: Don't use a regular towel. Use a t-shirt or microfiber towel to prevent frizz and friction. Don't brush your hair. Finged detangle wet hair with conditioner in it and leave some of this conditioner in your hair and don't rinse it completely.
Callum Camfield: Awesome video mate! I've been straightening my hair for years but it's finally taking it's toll and I'm starting to have breakages and fall outs. Going to try your healthy hair tips and see how we go. Keep up the videos dude :D
Paciência: Parabéns pelo conteúdo, Made. Apesar de você não fazer mais vídeos PT-BR, eu sempre estou aqui acompanhando o seu trabalho, desde a arenagameplay haha, faz tempo. Foram muitas mudanças que você teve em sua vida, de verdade, parabéns por ser essa inspiração de mudança para nós. Um abraço.
Franksamillion: 1: Shampoo less - once or twice a week 2: get the right haircut for you 3 Get the right tools to manage your hair 4: Get the right finishing product 5 Hair is an amazing thing!
Gil Hernandez: I watched this 3 times and I keep missing the part about how to style curly hair...
No one Should know me: I've thought about completely shaving my hair several times lol
Liam: I don't know why I'm watching this video, I'm bald. Thank you Alex anyway
Ari kun: Video Title: How to style curly hair Actual Video: How to care and pretty much get rid of the curls altogether Got it
Aniruddh: Hey man, thanks for your tips. I have curly hairs and they look great when they are wet but once they dry out, they look PATHETIC. Keeping hair wet all the time is impossible, what suggestion do you have for me?
Nolin Summers: I personally do have styling issues because my hair is versatile. I can twist it, braid it, bantu knot it, cornrow, flat twist, pick it out, blow it out, curly afro, coily afro, puffs, buns, natural afro. Im a new person every day.
shoumik jahangir: I have really wavy hair, and my hair length is about 10-15 inches. I'm trying to do the Jason Mamoa look, I get the look when my hair is wet but when its not, there is just too much volume. Due to my waves my hair looks much shorter than it is. When its straightened its about double my face length, but when its dry its about the same length as my face.
Hasyim Ali Shahab: Love your vids! But I think its true that every hair is different. In some of your vid you said that shampoo makes our hair dry and not good to use it too often. So I follow your tips to only use shampoo twice a week (before this I use it everyday, every time I took a bath). And it really do make my hair looks amazing after a month! But there is come a new problem. Dandruff. That tips are a bit unsuitable to use in topical countries. So it may require a bit of adjustment. Thanks for sharing anyway! I really love your channel. Keep up the good work!
Rexosaurus Ness: After trying to tame my curly hair for so long, I’ve realized that sometimes the best way to “manage” curly hair, is to just let it do its thing, ya know? Just make sure it’s healthy, then baaaaack away.
Guilherme Macedo: Made (Desculpa, ainda to me acostumando ao Alex), eu tava dando uma olhada em produtos pra barba e encontrei esse Styling Balm, que eu achei que supria bem o que eu tava querendo, mas não consegui achar o nome ou algo equivalente em português que eu pudesse comprar por aqui. Você saberia me dizer qual seria esse equivalente ou a tradução mais adequada? Como sempre ótimo vídeo e com certeza vai ajudar muito com meu cabelo. Abraço!
sniX: Love the tips! Thanks a lot. It really worked
Nippy Sidhu: I have just 1 tip for all the guys with naturally curly hair just leave them alone that’s the only thing that works no blow drying no comb and if you want to use any kind of product to style use as little as possible. One thing more i guess most people will agree is to shampoo less often because hair oil that body produces is most important aspect of having a good curly hairstyle no product can take its place.
Adonis Luna: Hey, Alex! I have curly hair but I happen to manage it real good. However, the real problem with me is when the weather is humid, my hair in humid day is literally a hot mess. I use Moroccanoil cause my hairstylist told me it works great for frizzy hair, but I think he recommended me the wrong product cause it doesn't work for me. I think it is because my hair is not dry and the problem is not in the lack of moisture but in the weather. Tho this moroccanoil product is great, cause my hair definetely feels softer and healthier but doesn't control my hair becoming frizzy. Any advice? There's this other product from moroccanoil that is merely for controlling frizz caused by humidity, you think I should buy it? Or have you dealt with a similar situation and have any helpful advice? Sincerely, thanks. Greetings from El Salvador.
Jishnu Kp: @alexcosta , can you please make video on showing us the actual difference between hair straightening and hair smoothing process?.
Dior: The blow dry part is only for long curly hair. The point of certain products is to leave moisture in curly hair and a blow dryer would get rid of most moisture
Joseph Rosas: man I don't even have curly hair, mine is super straight and fine but I love Alex Costa's channel so much that I'm still watching
moj vseg: man ur videos are so helpful,u offer style with a reasonable price.. u rock man.... keep it up that way
Nico Ortiz Drums: Amazing video brother!! I m from Bolivia, new subscriber. I have the most annoying frizzy, wavy, stubborn hair ever haha but I think that will be history after I apply these tips!!! thanks man
Jake Reeves: This should be titled: how to get straight hair if you have wavy hair.
Nadir Alallaoui: Do you recommend doiing those chemical things to your hair if you have dry thick waivy hair ? A lot of people say it well actually ruin your hair health and it's expensive to do it every 2 or 3 months.
Daniel Enrique Castañeda: Great videos man! Y9u should make a video for men who have curly/wavy hair. Like which products to use to enhance the wave. Thanks!
Maximus Dacey: Me: how do i fix my curly hair? Alex: straighten it...
A B: I do workout basically everyday (6 times per week) and it's impossible not to wash my hair everytime after the workout. What do i have to do?
oscarthegrouch: Those are some great tips on people with curly like me, so I enjoyed this video. Great Job
Gautam Menon: I say that you should blow dry but on low speed and kinda high temperature. It takes time but it's good. Also, we guys with curls have a huge advantage of natural texture! Embrace the curls! Get an undercut or a little fade and keep it moisturised! You're blessed with curls, live them to the fullest!!!
Volkov098: I just have some questions 1.I have oily hair, should I still wash my hair with shampoo less often? 2. With the hair dryer, should I use cold or hot blow ?
Adrian Becerra: alex is there a way to get straight hair to be more wavy? naturally? if so could you please make a video on it?
Alexios Makrigiannis: i have naturally 3a/b curly hair and if i blowdry it like that it looks like a crazy frizzy mess.....what works for me is using a semi permanent straightning cream before blowdrying..and after that go in with my straightner and activate the product...and after that my hair is staying sleek straight without frizzing out or waving up...and even when washing it after having it straight the curls come back loser but then come back normally next time...i dont do it very often because i think its damaging...but i wish i had wavy/curly hair like you and not super curly crazy frizzy hair.
Niko Vrahnos: My hair is basically alex's but curly. I did blonde highlights like his. Alex is that unhealthy? Btw love your videos man keep going. I subscribed and liked all of your videos

Black182heart: Every day before moving out i style my hair and i can say that i look good and satisfied with what i have done with my hair. But the problem is that i ride a bike. And as soon as i take off my helmet the hair gets messy and all the effort i had put on earlier is worthless. Any tips ?
Rom: I searched for this video again to get an idea for an haircut that actually suits me personally because I have curly hair that is very hard to manage. But I noticed the letters under the Intense Hydrating Mask title, it's in Hebrew. I speak Hebrew I am from Israel and it felt weird to me that the Alex Costa once used Israeli products. I watched this video before but only now when I'm watching it again I noticed it

Rômulo Soares: Caraca meu velho. Tu tem algum vídeo contando tua história? Teu inglês é mt bom, mas eu consegui ver que tu é br hahah Sucesso!
Evan Seklecki: Its super annoying to hear, if you have curly and unmanageable hair you should keep it short but if you have really nice hair than grow it out and show it to the world! You don't even have curly hair and you even said you "struggled" with your wavy hair like its a bad thing. Whenever I hear about "managing those curls" it always has to do with making them straight. Curls look fantastic and if you got them, flaunt them.
