I'm 56 years old and I am still called CUTE more often than anything... Chic, sexy, and the like have never been used to describe me, no matter what my hair looks like! LOL!!! I finally learned to embrace it. I rock cute! LOL!!! Regardless, you look stunning, whether you're rocking the cute or something else. LOVE IT!!!

Oh I relate to this! When I worked years ago , I had a theory that curly haired people find it more difficult to get respect and be taken seriously. Something about the cute curls is infantilising in their eyes. Anyone else found this? When I wore my hair straightened, I got very different vibes, this was the 89s and power shoulders etc were in- on straight days, a path would clear before me..

This is so true! I get so many more looks when i have a straight blow dry rather than wearing my natural curls, it is almost like people take you seriously with straight hair.

I can only agree -thank you for pointing that out!- and I find it sad. Take a look... how many natural coily/curly hair woman straighten their beautiful hair- especially in politics? A lot. And a designer once said that curly girls need to make at least "some styling" to the curls, so they look "put together" where as straight hair girls make a messy bun in a sec and that's it.

I have been cutting my curly hair short for like 20 yrs now. Had a few years there of longer hair but chopped it last year again because postpartum hair lost. My curls(hair) always look better short, fine and thin hair. I'm pleased that you cut your hair so i can see a new perspective of how you style. My hair is so fine those brushes you are using just straightens it out. I want volume all the time.

@106andie Hello 👋 I bought Weightless Air Dry Cream... I use this in the shower with first using Marc Anthony's Strictly Curls Shampoo & Conditioner along with the Tangle Teezer Detangling Brush. I Wet Hair First, Then I apply a little of the conditioner so that when using the Tangle Teezer it's not ripping my hair out of my head, where I was losing a lot of hair before by just starting off with the Shampoo first. I then rinse it out and apply the shampoo and rinse and add more of the conditioner and rinse, then apply the Weightless Air Dry Cream, but don't rinse and just squeeze a little to get excess water out, I then twist my medium long hair and apply the Curlsmith Microfiber Hair Towel. PS After using the Tangle Teezer in between each product, I Rake through with my hands, especially when applying the Weightless Air Dry Cream I use the Tangle Teezer squeeze just a bit of excess water and then Rake through and apply the Curlsmith Microfiber Towel. I then give it time to soak in by rinsing off my body, drying myself, and putting things back in the bathroom. Then I apply Marc Anthony's Curl Cream not a lot as it is thick a nickel size works for me, and Rake that, through, apply Marc Anthony's Mousse, Rake again, apply water from my Bottle Mister if needed (depends on your porosity and how fast your hair dries in between products your adding). I get dry hair towards my ends and middle, so I spray the Mister in between products if needed. I then apply, Aveda Replenish Leave In Conditioner and rake and scrunch gently, then I apply Curlsmith Miracle Shield raking and scrunching. At this point, I apply my make-up. Now, it's time to diffuse on medium air to medium heat using the CURLSMITH XXL DIFFUSER. If I'm in a rush or the top of my scalp towards the back, which takes the longest to dry, then in that area I put on the high heat holding my head down and avoiding the ends of my hair with the high heat. Then first, I gently scrunch my hair on medium heat while slightly scrunching, then I flip my hair up and dry just a little more while gently scrunching while my hair is still damp but on the wet side to dry side from side to side. If I notice if my ends are stringy, I apply a little of Marc Anthony's Leave In Conditioner, rubbing product through my hands and scrunching the stringy areas (you always want to rub your products on both your hands and then rake, prayer hands and scrunch gently). You can use the diffuser again for the stringy ends, but I prefer to let it dry on it's own. At this point, I get halfway dressed, leave my Blouse/Shirt off (this gives my hair more time to dry on it's own), and then I apply Marc Anthony's Curl It Up Spray. Apply to your hands rubbing your hands together and apply to your dry hair, wait a few minutes, and turn your head upside down. Take your hands with your fingers onto your scalp and give your hair a shake, then gently scrunch away both upside down and standing up. I have Coils, so to get my sides of my hair fluffy, I gently separate the coils to give fullness, and then I spray hairspray 6 inches away very lightly an quickly once all over my hair before, cause I want to make sure that my hair is set and good to go before I spray very lightly, and I'll just give it a little scrunch on my sides to make sure that my sides doesn't coil and gives it fluff. To give the back fluff I put my head down and gently shake then flip up standing upright and shake your back and sides hair side to side while looking at the ceiling lol 😅 I plan on getting more products from Curlsmith 😊 I just arrived yesterday from Florida to see my Boys 34 & 29, plus get my hair done cause Florida sucks and I went to three Salons and they screwed up my hair and spent over $300, where I can go to my Hairstylist that I've known for a long time and spend $230 including highlights. Then I'll see my main Dr tomorrow as he treats my Lupus and many other things, cause Florida Doctors Suck, cause you only see the main Dr once and then after you get a Physician's Assistant, where in NYC you see your main Dr everytime no PA's!!! 👍🏻😊😡😪 Then after I'll see my younger Son for 3 days and then head to Pennsylvania and see my older Son. We moved to Florida in 2021 and I hate it there, but my Hubby retired and I'm the youngest one in the 55+ Community so I have no friends there, and I can't drive cause I'm disabled with Peripheral Neuropathy in my legs, Double Vision, Seizures, etc. I've been sick for 30yrs now and I'm tired 😢 Anyway, I hope I helped in some way on how to do your hair. I had straight hair all my life and in 2018 my bangs were starting to curl at the beginning of summer and then by Spring of 2019 my hair was completely curly and had no idea what to do with it and thankfully I found Mell's on KZitem and she has helped me a lot. It's all trial and error ugh 😅 Curly Hair is Actually Harder than Straight Hair 🙄 Take Care and Good Luck ❤🥰😉

I’m growing out a pixie from last year, and am ready for my next hairstyle while it grows - I’m thinking I’ll go for a bob! Probably won’t put quite as much effort into my hair, but it’s good to have this in my back pocket! I always feel more confident getting a cut if I know another curly girl figured out the style too.

OMG YESSS to the wet look tutorial!! I have been scouring the internet for YEARS to find a tutorial like this one, so thank you so much for making this!!! Not enough people know that we don’t always want our hair to be a voluminous lions mane. And I think that trying this method on Amanda would also be super helpful for us to see, because I’m not sure if long hair would use the same amount of clips to get the chic look. I swear you are an absolute blessing to the curly hair community, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us !!!

I too regretted getting my hair cut into a curly bob...i liked it for about 2 weeks and then regretted it and missed my longer curly hair. I actually found it was ALOT more work and had to wash my hair more frequently as i would get wonky curls. Made me late for work many times! lol. Also, my longer hair i cut it like twice a year - nope with shorter was more like 2 months or it would start to look odd. Bob is nice but it can be a pain when you want to just put it in a ponytail and not think about it - especially in the summer or when you are busy at work or housework. Also working out i find is easier to be able to put my hair into a ponytail/bun. So now i have collarbone/mid back/bra length which i found is best for my 2c3a curl formation. I guess it comes down to what your lifestyle is and what suits you best. I think it is very important to have a detailed hair consult before deciding on the big chop! You do look cutely chic though!! Suits your sassy personality too.
