My Natural Curly Hair Tutorial Extension Edition | Angelique Cooper

Hello love so welcome back to my channel. My name is angelique. If you are new here and today, I'm going to be sharing with you guys, a little hair tutorial on how I do my naturally curly and wavy hair, but with hair extensions. Now this is the same exact routine. I would use whether I had my hair dreams, hair extensions or not. So if you don't have hair extensions, then this routine is still relevant. So, a couple months ago I shared with you guys a video about my hair care routine and what products I used to keep my hair healthy. So this video is going to basically continue where that one left off. So if you are interested in seeing what like hair masks and shampoos, I use to keep my hair healthy, then check out that video. But if you would like to see what products I use to define my natural wave then continue watching and we're gon na go jump in the shower now, because I've been waiting to so I could film this video and yeah. I need to show you guys how you do my hair, so it's time shower alrighty. So after I have showered and have done all of my hair masks, I wrap my hair up into a microfiber towel and let that sit for about 10 minutes. Hair extensions like to hold a lot of water, so I let the towel absorb most of the water. While I do my skincare routine, so as you can tell, I am showered and I have the products here and let's jump right into it. So the first thing I'm going to do is undo the towel and I don't know if you noticed how I wrapped the towel when I was putting it on. I don't like to twist my hair up into the ends. I just basically roll it up and then twist the towel around it. Basically, I just want to protect the extensions and I don't want anything to pull, so I just try to do it as gently as possible and I have found by not wrapping it into the end, makes it so much easier and I don't notice it pulling on My hair, so just a little tip there so now that the towel is out, I'm just gon na brush my hair with my wet brush. I just want to detangle the extension and when I don't have extensions, I actually don't brush my hair after I take out the towel. I just normally shake it out and it just kind of detangles on its own. But when I have extensions in, I just want to make sure I keep it really detangled and as smooth as possible and the wet brush is awesome because it doesn't pull up the extensions it just kind of glides over them. So I never feel them getting pulled and then once I brush my hair, I normally feel like excess water at the end. So just take your microfiber towel again, just kind of squeeze the excess water out. So the first product that I'm going to apply is this Dominus Oy, all-in-one milk and this product acts as like a detangler, a heat protectant, there's just a lot of great things going on it's even moisturizing and hydrating. So it seriously works wonders with extensions. Now. Some people don't spray product at their roots. I totally understand, but I try to get as much moisture in as possible, so I personally spray it all over and never have a problem of getting oily, but just listen to your hair and only spray it where your hair needs it office is gon na smell. Like a hair salon, oh and this also controls frizz, which is what I think I really noticed the most is that it really helps my hair just look more smooth and helps my hair blend with the extension. So this is a miracle product. The second product we are going to apply is the Dobbin s. What'S the name of Polly quite right there, the second product that I am going to apply is the Domino's curl moisturizing mousse. Now, when my favorite things about this mousse, is it isn't a crunchy mousse? It is definitely more of a hydrating mousse, so it definitely just defines the curls not as much like leaves it like a crunchy scrunched look, so it definitely gives it like a soft curl. Look so I'm gon na focus this more at, like my roots and on my hair and then just lightly run it through the extensions at the end. But I want to get my hair mainly first and the reason why I'm focusing on this more on my natural hair rather than extensions, is the extensions really don't need much more definition and they actually don't need much help curling. So I'm trying to make sure my hair gets most of the mousse in it and then just lightly run their rest of it through the extensions there's. Basically the excess product. That'S on my hands, activating the curls kind of ice crunching just lightly, giving it permission to curl. I don't know if that's a real thing, but I notice how helps look, how few awliyas back there he got a haircut anyways. The third step is to apply the way wave spray, and this product is amazing. When I travel, I try to travel with like the least amount of products just so my bag isn't heavy. So I normally leave my big can of mousse at home, and I just bring this little travel-size with me and it is awesome. This wave spray works wonders it's like. I use this the whole time in Italy and I would literally spray it walk out the door and call it good. Now, when I got my extensions, the girls at Bou main highly recommended using this, because there is no alcohol in it. So it's really safe to use on your hair and even more safe to use on the extensions, because you don't want to use anything with alcohol that will dry it out or at least try to minimize your use of alcohol, and this doesn't have it in there. So this is really really nice to use and because I've already put in the mousse, I'm just gon na spray, this more on my hair, just to make sure it's defined and good to go. And then the last product I'm going to apply is the davines oil and in this product smells so freakin amazing and my favorite part about this oil is my hair, just absorbs it and sucks in all the moisture and the oil doesn't just sit on top of My hair, because there's some whales where I'm like well, it just kind of looks like it's sitting on top. No, my hair absorbs this. Like literally, I could apply this five times a day and my hair would still not be oily, but it would be super super moisturized, so anyways, I'm going to put some of this in. You also might be asking why I put the oil in last honestly. It'S personal preference. I feel, like the oil just like seals in everything that I've just done and just kind of gives that, like final step to all the products and seals it all in, but just personal preference, you can put an oil whenever you feel like it. I just have noticed this is the way that my hair likes it and the way that it responds best to all these products. So I put the oil and last just like to seal it all in so that is pretty much all the products I do have. One last final step, but literally all I do now is let it air dry for about like an hour or so with the extensions it takes a little bit longer to dry. So literally, I will just put in my day around washing my hair and I'll. Do laundry I will do my makeup and I'll do any other, like house chores like emails, and I just let my hair air dry. I will be back in one second, I am still waiting on my hair to dry, so I thought in the meantime I would answer some of the questions that you guys had sent me on Instagram, because I that I was doing this video. I thought why I'm waiting for air to drive we're gon na do this. So the first question is: how is your hair without curly products? This thing, it just says a lot frizzy or without the products in because anytime you have products, it will help it look more defined and more presentable, but still very wavy and curly. What is your favorite product for curl definition? This is tricky. I go back and forth all the time I probably say a mousse. I feel like whenever I use em loose. It definitely defines the curls a little bit more and that's just my experience. How do you manage second-day, curly, hair mine always seems to get messed up overnight. So with the extensions, I honestly just put my hair into low braids and I wake up and check it out and it looks like a natural wave again and then, when I don't have my extensions in I just reactivate the curl the next day with something like The waves spray yeah, so how do you stop the frizz? Mine gets crazy frizzy all the time when I leave it natural. Something like this oil will help a ton and not touching your hair. When you touch your hair, a ton which you tend to do when you have like, naturally wavy or curly hair, because you're always like moving it around or fixing it, but the less you touch it, the less frizzy it gets because the curls will stay more defined. Do you use any products that hold the curls if so, which ones all of these the days in the video is what I use. So, as you can see, we are almost dry here with extensions. It does stay pretty damp under there for quite some time like I will be lucky if my hair isn't fully dry before I go to bed, but my hair is almost dry, so we can finish this tutorial. So, just to finish off, I like to add just like one or two more pumps of the Dovan s oil and that's just my preference again. My hair drinks up this oil. So I try to get as much oil in there as possible without it getting greasy. Of course, I just think this really helps blending my natural hair with the extensions, because it's adding moisture to my ends, which helps them blend together. Then some people may not be able to handle this much oil. I just know my hair can like literally drink it up and then the final step I do to like fully finish off. Hair is sprite in some Dominus, a medium spray, which is just like a light hairspray, and I honestly like to spray it on my hair and not as much the extensions, because there is a little bit of alcohol in here. I'M pretty sure, let's double check. So yes, there is a little bit of alcohol in here, so I like to focus it more on my hair and not as much the extensions, because the extensions really don't need any hold per se. It'S just more so for my hair to like finish it off and make sure I get the body I want. So when I have extensions in my hair and I wear my hair and actually curly, I don't use any heat on it. If you watched my previous naturally curly hair tutorial, you know, I use a diffuser on my hair to get body at the root and it's normally my finishing touch to get like that really big natural wavy hair look, but with the extensions in my hair, I actually Don'T need that step because there is length, the extensions are much cooler, so I'm not as much in need of the body at the roots. I can just let it all air dry in all blends really well, which is why I think this is one of the reasons that my hair has gotten a lot healthier with the extensions and because I really don't use heat on my hair at all. I think in the last five months that I've had in my hair dreams, hair extensions and I've only done my hair like straightened or curled it maybe four times, maybe five, four or five times like that is nothing. So I literally have let my hair air dry for months, which is awesome, so I've noticed a huge difference in the health and the length and the feel the texture is so impressed with how the extensions dry, like you guys saw. I haven't done anything I've, literally just let it air dry. I honestly think the extensions curl the same or, if not better than my own hair, just like my little tidbit about these extensions, and that is it I just put in those few products. I let my hair air dry, and this is the result. I noticed a huge difference when I switched your products that were better suited for my hair. I'Ve just noticed that it is a lot healthier and not as dry, so these products work amazing and wonders on my hair. So if you kind of have the same texture at the same hair type, I highly recommend these products. I'M trial and error products are just trial and error. Well, there you have it. I hope you guys enjoyed this video and seeing how I do my naturally curly hair, what extensions! So it's a little bit of an updated tutorial from the last one, but again this product routine will work on your hair, whether you have extensions or not, so it's not just for extensions, but I did want to show you guys how I do it with extension. So you guys can see how I dried it. So if you have any wave at all, I recommend messing around with it. Try different products try to fuse or try letting it air dry. Just try different things to you figure out what works for your hair. That'S what I did and it takes some time and it's trial and error, like the products that I used in my last video - are different than the products that are used now, so just try and figure out what works for you anyways.
