Styling My Short Hair: Finger Waves

Hi guys so for today's video, I decided to bring you guys my hair routine. I don't think I've gotten around to show you guys how I actually stopped my hair with short hair like this, and lately I've switched it up and started adding this little finito right here and I just feel like it makes me look a lot more sleek and I feel like ever since I've been doing my hair like this. A lot of you guys have been asking for a hair tutorial. So that's what we're doing today. I am in a different setup. I don't know if you guys care hi, I'm using a different camera. This is more of like my blogging camera, even though I don't so if I sound a little different, my bad, if the light keeps going in and out, I'm using natural sound like you guys, don't care you guys are here to see my hair. So if you want to see how I get my little wavy waves, this is good in Twitter. For my hair, I'm gon na start off by wetting it a little bit. I don't like wetting my hair too much because if I do like over saturate, my hair is gon na take a long-ass time to dry and we don't want time for that. But this is just used to kind of like refresh my hair I'll wake up with my hair kind of just like, so I need a little bit of water to just kind of like after that I like to go in with something with a little bit more For hydration, so this is gon na, be like the first step after the water. What I've been liking lately is the Brio geo despair repair, deep conditioning mask, and this is a mask, but I leave it in. I don't know. I just feel like it hydrates my hair leave my hair feeling super soft nice healthy. You know I can't go in straight to like mousse and Jo without like a prep, or else my scalp gets really itchy and flaky, and so I'll going with this, or maybe I've really been liking. This one too, the shea moisture, manuka honey, intensive, hydration, leave-in milk. Just anything hydrating whatever you have that you like that works, just use that so I'm gon na go in with this one today, and I literally just take like the babies not too much with short hair. A little bit goes a long way and you just want to kind of like comb it into your head recently, to get like my wave pattern, really really like nice and super wavy. I'Ve been using a little bit of gel with gel, though I don't like to go to ham too crazy, because you can get so much flaking with gel. I'Ve tried so many gels and they always flake. So a little goes a long way. Don'T use too much. Don'T go to gel crazy, the one that I've really been liking is the eco styler coconut, take a little bit of that and just start running it through the top of my hair like right here, and I start off with a little bit, because I am gon Na add more as I go so after that I'm gon na go in with my mousse I'm using the Cantu wave lip curling mousse. This is the one that I've really been liking. The one that's I feel like is affordable and it works really well. In my hair, so what I like to do first is take a little bit. It'S just to kind of like run it just like. I did that Jo and what I like to do is kind of like comb. This back, I don't know if you guys have noticed, but ever since we've gotten a little deep into quarantine. I'Ve been kind of like pulling this back and letting these little baby hairs just kind of like curl, because I haven't been able to go to the salon and get a haircut I've just kind of like tamed this hair. That'S been growing back and just kind of like smoothing this in the back as well, and I have a mirror right here. That'S what I'm staring here, so you guys can see the hair on this side after that you're gon na want to take your comb. I literally just start adding the mousse and with the mousse you want to go crazy with it, because this is what's gon na give you that kind of like slip to help you make those waves. So there's no easy way to explain this other than just flattening out that area and then like a wave. It goes like this. I don't know if you guys see what I'm trying to say, but that's the that's what you want to do to form that in your hair, so I'll show you guys. So you can see so you want to take it out, hold it. So it doesn't move and then in out again hold it and then take it in like that. So you get those waves and you see how there's those white things from the mousse. That'S! Okay, because that'll go away once it sets once it dries, and that's literally all I do. I don't do the back, because I'm not a hair person. I don't. I don't have the patience to kind of like just guess where the waves are at and then I take a little bit more of that gel and just right here in this area. I comb it. So it makes that so it goes out like the other ones, but then I comb it behind my ear, like that and with whatever's left on my hand from that gel I've started giving this a shape and I've really been liking. It lately. So I kind of just like curly currently upward, like that, so that's one side done and then the other side is the same all right. So this is the finished product. This is what my hair looks like after I've said it so usually I'll kind of like shape my my waves and then I'll wrap it with the scarf or something really tight. That way kind of like molds. Your hair keeps it in place and dries it at the same time. So usually I'll do my hair wrap it? If I'm going out I'll do my makeup that takes about like an hour and by then my hair is ready to roll and it's all set in place flat, it's not gon na move. It keeps this shape all day. If I want to wake up with nice, hair I'll just wrap it before I go to sleep, oh I have another suggestion, I'm pretty sure you guys have see these in my videos often, and I clip them up with the hairstyle like this. I feel like it's a little hard, it's just kind of like top your makeup around your hairline and not get makeup in it, so usually I'll, just kind of like put it right here and it acts as a shield. These are really nice. I got them off. Amazon, if I find them I'll, link them down below that's pretty much all I have for this video. I hope you guys liked it. The setup is a little different. I'M experimenting, I feel, like I've been getting into a routine of just filming in my studio, which is just like right there in my room, but I've been getting in a routine of filming over there and I just want to kind of like switch things up. I feel like being stuck in a certain routine kind of just like bores you, after a while I'm still gon na, be in my studio, but I want to alternate bring you guys different content, just experiment with like color grading editing. If you have any video suggestions, anything you want to see from me leave it in the comments down below other than that.
