Week In My Natural Curly Hair Routine 2021 | How I Style & Refresh My Natural Hair All Week ♡

Hey guys, what's up, it's amita welcome back to my channel and if you are new here, welcome in today's video i'm going to be taking you guys through a week in my curly hair or a week in my natural hair, whatever you guys want to call it, But i have gotten so many of you guys asking me to do this video, so i'm really excited to show you guys how i kind of manage my hair throughout the week and keep my curls intact on days, one two, three, four: five etc. So if you guys want to see that then definitely make sure to stay tuned to the video and if you haven't already make sure to hit the subscribe button down below all right guys. So i am just starting off with my hair freshly washed and deep conditioned, and i'm just doing my regular curly hair routine. If you guys have not seen that, i will link it up above in the cards as well as down below in the description box, and then, when i finished um one side of my hair. I just did the other one off camera, and now i'm just gon na go ahead and wait for my hair to air dry. It will take a few hours um, but either way i'll go ahead and show you guys the final results all right, you guys. So it's about several hours later and it's only about 70 dry right now, but i'm pretty tired. It'S like almost 11 30. It'S a time for me to go to sleep um, and so i wanted to show you guys like how i put my hair up and how i sleep with it um and so typically, i do like to use a scrunchie like a satin scrunchie, but i do Not have one at the moment, so i'm just going to use a regular hair tie. These are definitely not my favorite to use on my hair, but it is what it is. It'Ll do the job i'm also going to use my trusty bonnet and i'm also going to be using two bobby pins. Those are the three things that i use to kind of put my hair up to go to sleep. I like to put my hair in a pineapple. It basically is literally just taking your hair and then putting it in a super high ponytail, all all the way at the very top of your head. My hairdresser latoya was the one who taught me about it because i literally was before putting in a pineapple washing my hair like every day, because i had no idea how to preserve my curls and when i went to sleep, my hair just got messed up. So this was just a game changer for me and i'm sure that there are other methods out there to preserve your curls, but the pineapple is just the one that has proven to work best for me. So i'm going to go ahead and put my hair in a pineapple now, okay - and this is what my pineapple looks like - it definitely is a little bit of a dysfunctional pineapple, because my hair is so long. It just kind of like hangs down on the sides, but once i put it in the bonnet, it works out pretty much exactly the same, and i also want to give you guys another tip that i actually learned um from maine's by mel here on youtube. So after i put the bonnet on my head, i just take the bobby pins and i put one on each side and that literally just seals, the bonnet onto my head for the entire night. I don't have to worry about it like slipping off falling off. Nothing like that, it works out perfectly. I definitely look like an auntie right now, but it is worth it because when i wake up in the morning my curls are hopefully going to be intact and looking good. But i will check back in with you guys to kind of show you guys what my curls look like tomorrow. So i will see you guys, then hey guys good morning, um well actually good afternoon, um, it's saturday, so i did just take some time to sleep in and just chill for, like the first little bit of the day um. But i have not taken my bonnet off yet, and so i definitely want to show you guys what my hair is looking like. It is um day two well maybe day one and a half, because my hair didn't dry all the way on day one but we'll call it day. Two, my bonnet stayed in place the whole night because of the little bobby pin track um, okay, and now i'm going to take my hair out of this pineapple and see exactly what it is. Looking like. Oh look at these curls you guys like come on. I just love, love, love day, two hair. I really don't even have to do anything to my hair. I could literally just leave it like this um, but y'all know i'm like a perfectionist and once i like fluff it out, it's gon na look even bigger, even cuter, all that good stuff um. So what i use to refresh my hair is literally the same exact stuff that i used to uh. Do my wash and go so. I mainly just use the curl enhancing smoothie and the eco styler gel. So what i like to do is i just take a tiny, tiny bit of eco styler gel on, like literally one of my fingers and then i'll put my spray bottle and then i'll spray that finger a little bit just because i feel like eco styler by Itself, when i'm refreshing, my curls can be like a little heavy and a little just a little harsh. So i'm literally just going to go in and just kind of like finger, curl a little just a few of the pieces that i feel i could just use a little extra love. I'M really not gon na do very much okay, so that is all the kind of like touching up. I'M gon na do because it's day two, it really does not need me to do anything to it. I feel like it looks really good, as is i am gon na, like um fluff it out a little bit, so i can get more volume, but first i am going to do my baby hairs and when i do my baby hairs, i like to use a Toothbrush and my eco styler gel um, so i'm gon na go ahead and fix my baby hairs. I really don't do much to them. I just like, and that's about it for my baby hair. Now i'm going to go ahead and just fluff my hair out just a tiny bit. I just use my fingers honestly. My hair has kind of grown out into a layer of pretty much one layer, so i don't have very much volume. The last time i got it trimmed was when i posted my divacup, which was like in september of 2019. That'S the last time i put scissors to my hair at all, i'm just right now enjoying the length that my hair is at. I feel like it's definitely giving me very much like disney princess vibes, so i probably will trim it, but i know when i do trim it. I'M gon na probably go a little bit shorter, so i just want to take some time to enjoy the current length but yeah. This is my day, two hair. You guys, i probably won't check back in with you guys until like tomorrow morning, um just because i'm not really gon na be doing anything throughout the day like working out or anything like that. That'S gon na be potentially messing up. My curls um and i'll be sleeping with my hair, the same exact way that i slept with it last night, so i will show you guys how it looks tomorrow morning. So definitely stay tuned. To that i'll see you guys, then hey guys what's up. It is now day three, it's also valentine's day and that's why i went ahead and did my makeup, but i want to show you guys what my day three hair is looking like um, i haven't taken my bonnet off since i went to sleep last night and I didn't really do anything yesterday, so i'm hoping my hair is still looking good, but let's go ahead and see what it's looking like under here hey. So the pineapple is looking good a little bit. A couple of the curls look a little wonky, but let me take this out the pineapple, oh okay, so it's still looking pretty good you guys, i'm telling you that pineapple. It literally saves your curls from getting destroyed um but yeah. It looks honestly. I don't like. I said days two and three: i really don't even have to do anything to them. I really could just fluff my hair out and then you know kind of do my baby hairs and keep it pushing the only um parts of my hair that really end up getting messed up. Um because of the pineapple are like the under parts. They kind of get like a little frizzy and the curls kind of like flatten out a little bit just because i am pulling my hair all the way to the top of my head. So it does kind of cause like the inside when i put it in the pineapple to kind of like flatten out, but honestly it preserves most of my curls. So it works for me. So i'm gon na refresh just a couple of my curls that i feel like could use a little extra love and what i'm also going to do you guys is i'm just going to take my bobby pins and i'm just going to pin like one of the Smaller curls on the side here, i just feel like it, gives my hair a romantic look and it is valentine's day. So why not - and i am also going to fluff out my hair in a second but first i'm going to just go in with my toothbrush and eco styler gel to do my baby hairs again. Okay, so that's it for the baby hairs. I definitely use a little bit too much gel, but whatever it's still cute um, i'm crying you guys for when i have to wake up to film tomorrow morning. To do this because i am an essential worker and i leave my house to go to work at about 7 a.m. Um, so i'm gon na have to get up just a little bit earlier than i normally would to film um, but it's not bad whatever um. So now i'm gon na go ahead and fluff my hair out a little bit um. So that is basically it for how i refresh my day three curls, but i will check back in with you guys tomorrow. So you guys can see how my day, four curls look. I forgot to mention when i shower. I just keep my bonnet on and i throw a shower cap on over it and that, like stops any moisture from being able to get into my hair, and it really helps to keep my curls safe, um, so yeah, i will check back in with you guys Tomorrow morning please pray for me because i'm gon na have to wake up literally at like the crack of dawn to film, but so yeah. I will see you guys then, and i hope you guys enjoy your valentine's day good morning - guys it's pretty early right now. Um, i am about to be on my way to work, but i definitely wanted to show you guys how my day four curls are looking like. Um, okay, the curls are still looking pretty intact. Okay, you guys, as you guys, can see um my curls definitely need a little extra love. Um they're still looking pretty good, but it definitely does need a little bit of refreshing. I definitely also slept a little crazy last night, but whatever i moved the camera a little bit down um just so you guys could see like the bottom of my hair, but yeah. My hair definitely needs a little bit of refreshing. So i'm going to go ahead and go into the curl enhancing smoothie, but yeah you guys, i'm like literally dreading work today, i'm just so sleepy um and it's monday. So it's like getting back to being acclimated into the week. I don't know if i ever told you guys what i do um, but i work in clinical research um. So basically, i like handle like clinical trials for patients that are basically using like study, medications. Yeah. I don't know how long i am going to wear my hair down um, i kind of just play it by ear. I just kind of when i take the pineapple down. That'S really, when i kind of decide what i'm gon na do with my hair um. But typically i go until like day five um and then i will wear my hair like in a ponytail or a bun um for like two days and then i will wash my hair again. So yeah you guys. This is basically it for my day for curls. It took a little bit more refreshing than days two and three um just because my curls just get a little compromised um by the time you get to day four um, and so i am going to see you guys tomorrow for day five. Those curls are probably gon na, be even more compromised, but we'll see exactly what that looks. Like yeah, i'm going to go ahead and head to work, and i will catch back up with you guys on day, five, hey guys a good morning. It is day five um, it's tuesday, it's like six in the morning um, but i'm about to head to work, and i definitely wanted to show you guys my day, five hair before i head out. Okay, my curls honestly, are still pretty okay. The part of my hair that, like i said, gets the most messed up is like the inside. You guys can kind of see these curls have like really kind of like flattened out just because i'm constantly like pulling my hair up into the pineapple those curls really just kind of become compromised. So i was going to put my hair in a ponytail because it is raining today and i do not like wearing my hair out when it's raining, but honestly, like it'll, just be easier for me to refresh my hair, my camera randomly turned off but um. I i'm just finishing up refreshing my curls, so yeah. This is what my curls are looking like. I kind of like to sometimes just pin this side back. For some reason i don't know i just like the little effect that it gives um but yeah the back of my hair, as you guys can see. The curls still look pretty good um, but tomorrow's probably gon na be a little bit different day. Six i'll probably end up putting my hair in a ponytail or a bun, depending on how i feel so i'll show you guys exactly how i do that and so yeah. I will check back in with you guys on day six hey guys a good morning and welcome to day six of the week in my curly hair. This might also be the last day of the week in my curly hair, so i'm gon na go ahead and see exactly what we're working with under here. It'S definitely like way more frizzy, it's like, as you guys, can see like these front parts here. My curls have definitely gotten a lot more compromised, especially like under here it just the curls are just not looking they're just not doing what i want them to do. So i'm probably gon na end up putting my hair in a ponytail, so i'm just gon na start off by just spritzing the top of my hair and now i'm going to go in with my denim brush and i'm just going to brush the top parts of My hair just to make them a little bit easier to put in a ponytail now that the top of my hair is kind of flat. I'M going to take my eco styler gel and i'm going to spray my hand a little bit, i'm using a little bit more eco, styler gel just because i really want to gel kind of gel down the top of my hair um. Now i'm just going to go in with a hair tie. I am going to start just by fixing the hair in the actual ponytail a bit, and that is pretty much it. It'S definitely not like a perfect ponytail, but it definitely will do. This is definitely like. My go-to style on like days six and sometimes if i want to extend it into day, seven i'll just you know, keep the ponytail going, but i think i'm gon na end it here you guys um. That is basically it for the week in my curly hair tomorrow day, seven, i will probably end up washing my hair again and restyling it the same way.
