00:00We all have bad hair days and that's okay. It's just part of curls. Every wash day is
00:17gonna come out different and I think we all can relate to that. We've all had our bad hair days.
00:21My curly journey was actually inspired by my three little girls. They needed to see
00:29how I loved my curls. They were constantly hearing, you know, your curls are
00:35beautiful, you should embrace your curls, but I wasn't showing them that. I was
00:40constantly straightening my hair. Wow. I wanted to show them how to love their
00:44curls. Every curly girl I've spoken to has had a time in their life where they
00:48didn't accept their hair, they didn't embrace it, and now I can confidently say
00:53that I love my hair and I feel like a lioness with my hair. I love it and I
00:59rock it and I embrace it even if it's frizzy one day. This has become to me more
01:06of a journey to self-love. I didn't think that just learning how to care for my
01:11hair after 30 years of life that would actually become like a journey of
01:17self-discovery. Unfortunately, this all started with a bleach disaster. So many of
01:23us can relate to the bleach disaster, so that is how it started for me. But then
01:28after that, I took it and turned it into a positive. You and I could sit here and be
01:36like, you have loose curls, I have loose curls, but they look completely different.
01:40Completely different. I definitely have some wavier pieces, some curlier pieces, it's
01:44kind of, kind of all over the map. Each one of them has a personality and you
01:48can't tame them, you can't always make them do what you want, but they are so
01:53special in their own way. My hair is thirsty. It's always, it needs a lot of
02:01moisture. Oddly enough though, I've found that lightweight to deep moisturizing
02:07products work amazingly well in my hair. I like to use products that aren't
02:11insanely moisturizing, like a lighter product because of my hair texture is like
02:15a wavy beachier vibe and I want for it to be voluminous. So I like to use products that
02:22don't weigh my hair down. Start with a good curly haircut. Okay. That's, yes. A proper
02:31curly haircut is really going to put you on the right path throughout your whole journey.
02:37When you have that good base, that good curly haircut, you're going to feel so much better
02:41about yourself and your journey. Not only is it cutting off the damage, but it's
02:46also going to give you that shape and that volume. And that is like one of my
02:51number one tips and tricks. I love that. That's a good one. For me, I feel like my
02:56biggest trick has been maintaining my hair like over second day hair, third day
03:02hair, fourth day hair, sometimes fifth day hair. I love to pineapple my hair at night
03:09so with a silk scrunchie, that's the key because I hate washing my hair. I like to
03:16just once a week do it and let it last forever. It's hard for curly girls. It's hard. You got to
03:20make it last as long as possible. So I love to use the Maui Moisture Sea
03:28Minerals Heat Shield Mist whenever I am either diffusing to do my natural hair
03:33wash and go or you can use it to do straight styles or curl styles. This is going to
03:38protect your hair from heat damage. Now this is the Maui Moisture Hibiscus Water
03:43Detangler. It will detangle your hair super effectively, create a great amount of
03:47slip without weighing your hair down. It is an absolute game changer and it's
03:52perfect for all of you wavy babies out there. I like to use the Maui Moisture
03:56Volcanic Ash Conditioner for when my hair is feeling dull and congested. It gives me
04:01shiny curls and it really is a creamy conditioner so it just feels amazing on wash day.
04:07You
