Updated Hair Care & Styling Routine

Hello, everyone and welcome back to my channel so in today's much requested video, I'm going to show you all of my steps to take my hair from greasy to glamorous, including how I style it and what products I like to use. One of my favorite tricks is to do an apple, cider, vinegar, rinse. Instead of a clarifying shampoo, I find that it's gentler on my hair and makes it really shiny. So if you want to know one of my secrets, that's it so I used that diluted and then my living proof shampoo, which actually really does help to keep my hair, smoother and cleaner for longer. This video is not sponsored. I have been really liking their products. Recently, those so that's a lot of what I use in this video. I also really like their deep conditioner as I do the macadamia deep conditioner and then the only leave-in product I really use is the living proof style extender which really helps to repel humidity. I'Ve noticed - and I use just a little bit of that and then I sleep on my hair, so that's another big trick of mine. I find that my hair is so much smoother, so you can see it's not too too frizzy the next day. So this was filmed the next morning you can see. I definitely have quite a bit of wave, but it's been flattened significantly from sleeping on a silk pillowcase. What I like to do is start off by smoothing out the bangs and adding some volume with a round brush. If I were to wear my hair straight, I would do this to all of my hair, but in today's video I'm going to style it curly, which is kind of like one of my signature, looks because I do it without a curling iron and with a flat Iron instead and it lasts for three whole days up to four days, if I use some dry shampoo as well and I'll link the one that I like down below what I then do is I use a little comb and my good old, really beaten up duties To curl all of my hair - and I love how bouncy this looks, I feel like it does damage my hair less than if I were to use a curling iron, and my hair just needs a quick touch-up the next day, because the curl stays in really really Well, that is partly thanks to my natural wave, but it's also thanks to the fact that it really gets sealed into my hair, which at that point is really really dry as well in a way, sometimes isn't. If I were to blow-dry it straight away after I've washed it, so I think this whole process really helps to just keep my hair looking nice, even in a wet humid climate like we have here in Vancouver. So I showed you quite a few different curls that I did through various sections. I usually do three sections and I take a pretty big chunks of hair whenever I go to the hairdresser and they curl my hair. They use sections that are about a third of this size, but I do not have the patience for that nor the time, and so I do really big chunks and even though each CRO may not be perfect. As a result of that, I think that actually adds to the look and makes it look a little bit less done and less prom like as well. I love how the curls kind of loosen over the next three days so that I end up with more of a kind of blow-dried loose curl finish. So it starts off being more bouncy kind of print curl looking and then it just ends up being something that I can kind of progress with over the next few days, and that really helps me out because styling my hair does take quite a while there's just No way around that, if you'd like to see my no fuss, no style curly, hair routine, I will link that for you down below it's a really pretty video I filmed in Hawaii. I do like my natural curl pattern. If I do a good job of using product and letting it air dry, but I don't love it if I sleep on it, and so that requires me to wash my hair every single morning, which I don't like to do with the time that I'm waking up In the morning and going to work on all of that, so this kind of like more styled curl works for me because it lasts three days and then I tend to wear my hair, naturally curly when I'm on vacation another trick of mine to get that volume That I really love is to use the Oribe dry texturizing spray instead of hairspray. I think it gives you a lot of the same effect in terms of setting the hair and get helping to repel humidity, but it gives way more separation and kind of blow-dried. Bouncy finish than any hairspray that I've ever tried. I will link the hairspray that I use down below, but I use it very seldom because I find I don't need it and then what I really like to you is to then add a little bit of product to the end. Sometimes I use a little more of this if my hair has some split ends and it's a bit more dry and a little bit less if I just want the scent and the shine, so my top tips are to take care of your scalp, the vinegar, hair Rinse works well for me with that, don't use more product than you need and sleeping on it and not processing your hair more than you need to also really helps to maintain both my style and the health of my hair. So that is it for this video. I hope you found it insightful. Thank you so much for watching and I will see you in my next installment on style.
