Hey guys, the beauty marks here and this video is all about how to take care of your curly Wiis, tight curly, specifically so tight curly. We can be really really scary if you have not experienced it, but it is beautiful and so much fun once you think of it. So this is all about how to do specifically moreso weaves. However, I do use some of the same watching I use the same products in my natural hair as well, so it kind of kind of goes along with that, but most of this is about how to take care of that we even now. First off this hair is from love, Sidora, dot-com, peruvian, currently, 18 20 and 22 inch, and I made au part unit. Actually just did a review on this hair so make sure you check it out to see what I have to say about this. So this is au part unit that I have in that I actually made my hair is on the top sides and in the back so, but this is about how to carefully when first, one of the things I want to say about curly hair is detangling. Is super important detangling is what can be frustrating about curly hair, but at the same time your curly hair will last so much longer. If you detangle every day, and one of the things I suggest is only wearing curly hair as a you part unit. That way say I usually leave in my weaves her at least a month and a half, maybe two months. May I usually leave it in for that long and when I take it out is so easy. You just take off the you part, and then you literally can wash it and detangle it really really really good. Wash your hair get it all squeaky, clean and ready to put back in the you part again, so it just makes it so much easier. I'Ve noticed in the past when I've done individual just did the tracks by itself. Without you part unit with curly hair. That'S when I experienced the most frustrations the most tangling it just it's just actually a new part just works with curly air. It is does, in my opinion, so first off first things. First, when you first get curly hair um you do not want to use. Shampoo shampoo is a no-go because with curly hair, especially curly, we've currently even drier than natural curly hair. I don't know why. I'M a because the oils from your scalp aren't reaching. You know the weave like it would, with natural curly hair like growing out from your scalp. So it's something that you have to keep hydrated always always so there's certain products that you can use to make our life so much easier when it comes to your curly hair and keeping it hydrated and the more hydrating your hair is the less it's going to Become detangled, so I'm gon na grab the essentials that you will need. Oh geez, I'm dropping everything. So first things: first, you will need a spray bottle. I like to use warm water like lukewarm water versus cold water, and it makes the hair more manual. It makes it actually, it seems like it's easier to detangle when it's warmer here versus colder hair, I'm sure, that's probably because we use cold hair, it seals the cuticle, so it probably makes it harder to come through anyway. You need that you need a wide tooth comb when detangling and this you can do every eight verses in the morning and I'll show you how you can put your hair at night. So that will save you time in the morning. If you do your detangling at night and put your hair in braids and I wake up in the morning so much easier, you don't have to spend as much time fun and then my favorite product to detangle with is the hair mayonnaise. This one specifically, is from organics there's a bunch of different hair mayonnaise brands. This one works just wonderful reason being is you need some slip when detangling your hair that way you'll get less shedding less snacks, like sometimes with your snap, if you curl, if you come through curly hair, without some slippage, you never cut your curly hair without some Water, unless you want the very big gigantic gigantic hair, so when this is basically why I do it every night before I go to sleep, I will detangle the hair first. First, you want to get it damn. Then you want to use your organic hair, mayonnaise and hair Minutemen Wow hair mayonnaise is basically protein for your hair. So you're, not only are you getting that slippage, while you're actually adding some strength to your wheat, which is really nice it'll? Last you a lot longer. So now that I've kind of distributed it, you want to distribute in a finger comb through it. Now that I've done that make sure you get the ends too. This is when you want to start at the ends and detangle from the ends all the way. Okay, so now my hair is in detangled separated down the middle, and so what you can do at night now, depending on your natural hair, that's out in the front of the you part. This is what can be like kind of tricky might to separate the actually from your natural hair. So my hair is about three C for a hair, curl type. So what I like to do is initially after I wash my hair, I will do twists. Do like a twist out with my hair, so I wet it! Use eco styler gel, take my own hair and twist it and then for I'll. Do this the first night and then the rest of the hair I'll do two pigtails. So this one, my own hair, a twist like that that way, when I take this out in the morning, it'll pretty much match my curls my hair curly week, and that's also something you can do if you have relaxed hair. This will really prevent you using a lot of heat on your hair that will really help. So my hair right now is stretch out. I have a stretch out natural curl from having my hair for two days from a twist out, so it's like a two-day-old twist out, basically on the top of my head. So when it's at this point to where I don't need to twist anymore, because it's pretty much stretched out, what I do is just do two french braids on both sides, including with my own hair, so that when I take out in the morning, it already looks Blended, this is why it's so easy in the morning, usually like you, don't have to do too much with your hair and when I braid I like to braid with the shea moisture D treatment mass, this is actually a mask that you can use as a leave-in. It'S just basically raw shea butter with a couple. Other ingredients like seek help and argan oil. This is this. One is amazing, ten bucks at Target, and so I use this while I break my hair so that long sleep, my hair, my own hair and my hair weave is really getting that moisture that it needs so that for the next day, it's ready to go, and You can also use a coconut oil, and I found this from my local beauty supply store. It'S a nature shine. I love this oil, it's really nice, you can just spray it on. Your hair is looking for a spray form of coconut oil. Pretty much and that's good as well, but I like to use that more so just in the morning, so at night grab a little bit of your raw shea moisture, distribute it into your hair, especially at the ends of the hair, weave and then you'll go ahead And bring it into two braids so I'll. Do that and then I'll show you how I take out my hair in the morning? Okay. So now I have my two braids in for night time and again it includes my own hair. I braided it in with my own hair, so that'll match in the morning a blend, and then I take a blacks. You know little satin scarf and I just tie it around my head like so then I go to bed. So when I wake up and then let me say that I know some girls they like to do twist with the weave versus braiding, and I notice that personally, where they twist in the past my weaves, the curl got a lot looser than using braids and over Time it seems to be that a curly weave, the curly type pattern will loosen up a little bit over time and my goal is to keep it as tight as possible as long as possible, and I noticed that braiding versus twist. It really helps with that and then another thing that really helps keep that tight. Curl is absolutely no gel on your weave. Gel works great on my own natural hair, but I completely avoid putting on the weave weave because it actually weighs down the curl and actually kind of over time will loosen a curl as well. So basically I go ahead and take out the braids see now right now, it's not dry, so they're not gon na get the exact effect in the beginning of the video that time. My hair looks that's how the weave looks completely dry and with my hair. So I'm Alicia have an idea of what it's supposed to look like, and so you know just detangle, and what I like to do is basically take that coconut oil that I was telling you back the spray one. I also have some other oils, like soybean and sudden that oils as well anyhow, you sprayed on your hair. This will kind of prevent that dryness throughout the day and then I like to just shake the hair, especially here where it was separated into you. Just really want to shake it out and then from there you're pretty much ready to go for the day as far as the weave as far as your own natural hair. If you did a twist out prior to you'll just twist it out completely and then you're good to go, if you haven't stretched like old twist out like I have. What I'll do is spray my hair and do eco styler gel around the edges to really blend it, and then I'm pretty much good to go and one suggestion. If you feel like you, absolutely need to put gel on the weave, it's just gotten too poofy, or something and honestly when curly type we use get too poofy is just they don't have enough moisture in there. It'S more so about the moisture. I understand. Sometimes you want to put a little bit of gel if you have to do it, do not put eco styler gel. It'S way too heavy do a light lightweight gel or a curl milk. Something like that. The I got this, the goddess curl this one's an example. The we knock one also is an example of a less heavy gel. So if you have to be gel in which I do not suggest that's what you can do so basically that's my method of madness when it comes to gorgeous curly, hair weaves and I honestly feel like I get the most wear out of it. Because of these steps so remember, keep your curly weave, dehydrated detangle every day is, if you skip whoo, if you skip three days, you're going to have tangles and that could be so frustrating so just avoid it. You have your night routine and then the morning you're just good to go, and that's it. That'S how I do curly hair weaves. I hope this was helpful and you guys, if you haven't, tried, really hard we're just on the straight path of the straight hair or like a loose way. Give it a try, like you, will love it it's kind of fun and that throughout the day, if you feel like your hair gets a little messy, it works because it's like the messy curly look. So anyhow, thanks guys for watching, see ya.

Doreen Eitel: Thank you so much for the review and answering my question! Keep up the good work hun!;)

Ms_Micaela_: I suggest to use a curl defining creme for the weave. I use gel on my hair, avoiding it touching the weave and then add Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie to my weave

Ms_Micaela_: ***I FOUND A PRODUCT THAT WORKS GREAT FOR MAKING THE CURLY WEAVE LESS POOFY & FRIZZY!!! Shea Moisture's Frizz Free Curl Mousse!! It actually defines the curls of the weave without weighing down the hair like a gel. Also it does not dry out the hair!!

Ms_Micaela_: Your saying it gets too puffy when it dries? If so, you may want to try more moisture and a curl definer. Shea Moisture "Curl enhancing smoothie" works for me when I want less it not as big/poofy. It mositurizes and defines. You can also use a heavier oil, like olive oil to weigh down the hair some

Nita C: Thank you.I enjoyed it.

Ms_Micaela_: You can blend using the thinner/smaller curling rods (the teal colored ones from the beauty supply stores work well) with a little bit of gel. Where them at night and in the morning it will look great.

Brianna Campbell: *detangle it it's not frizzy etc but when it dries it puffs up
