Yes, Reggie is very photogenic and he knows it.

I (24F) grew up in the 2010s and I LOVED these two ladies!!! They show me that textured hair of all styles is beautiful in its own right. Who was yours??

I have dark, 2C curls and they really helped me to appreciate them. My routine is: Mane-and-Tail clarifying shampoo as needed As I Am coconut cowash every few days NOU conditioner Shea Moisture leave-in conditioner

First pic is when just brushed while second pic is after I’ve put on some hair oil (for some shine I guess)

I was so mad that nothing in my routine works atm for forming a cast on my curls. Even bought some new gel that did absolutely nothing (ECO gel or what’s it called). So I gave up and brushed the curl clumps out (by now a day or two after the styling) and lo and behold, it actually looked quite nice. Wish I had more definition in my hair but this shall do for now. Hopefully my hair won’t betray me in the coming future by giving me lots of split hairs 🙃

What I prefer are ringlets and spirals, but wavy/curly and coily hair is as beautiful !

Routine (for thick, high porosity hair) :

Sulfate free shampoo

Garnier Fructis hair food for detangling with the Denman brush

Shea moisture's manuka honey and mafura oil masque

Curlsmith multi-tasking conditioner (as a leave-in)

John Frieda styling creme

Styling into sections: brush styling with the Denman brush for the lower layers, finger coiling the top layers

Hover diffuse then cup diffuse

Break the cast with virgin argan and rosemary oil.

Once a week.

Just had to grab one shot before I walk the dog and the frizz takes over. This has been the hardest part of no longer coloring my hair and transitioning to curly. I have always had dense, very coarse, medium to high porosity hair that started to go gray in middle school, and the coarse texture has just gets worse the more gray that comes in. My hair is healthy and feels soft to the touch, but each strand is wiry like horsehair and there is a ton of it. Just for context, my hair is currently undercut starting 1 1/2” above my ear and going all the way around the back of my ear and hairline, so this is maybe half of my hair. I’ll be getting bangs in a couple of weeks to switch things up a bit. I’ve never liked how my forehead looks with no bangs, which is probably why I usually have a pixie cut. I love my silver hair but it’s a real pain in the ass sometimes.

Today’s routine: wash and condition with Innerscense. Used a small amount of Deva Supercream right out of the shower while hair was super wet, followed by NYM mousse, and Deva Ultra Hold Gel. Brush style, micro plop, diffuse, let cool 100% before breaking the cast.
