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. It's adorable. They needed
00:28to see how I loved my curls. They were constantly hearing, you know, your curls
00:35are beautiful, you should embrace your curls, but I wasn't showing them that. I
00:40was constantly 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 of a
01:06journey to self-love. I didn't think that just learning how to care for my hair
01:12after 30 years of life that would actually become like a journey of
01:17self-discovery. Unfortunately, this all started with a bleach disaster. I know so
01:23many of us can relate to the bleach disaster, so that is how it started for
01:27me, but then after that I took it and turned it into a positive. You and I could
01:35sit here and be like, you have loose curls, I have loose curls, but they look
01:39completely different. I definitely have some wavier pieces, some
01:43curly hair pieces, it's kind of, kind of all over the map. Each one of them has a
01:47personality and you can't tame them, you can't always make them do what you want,
01:52but they are so special in their own way. My hair is thirsty, it's always, it needs a
02:01lot of moisture. Oddly enough though, I've found that lightweight to deep
02:06moisturizing products work amazingly well in my hair. I like to use products that
02:10aren't insanely moisturizing, like a lighter product because of my hair
02:15texture is like a wavy beachier vibe and I want for it to be voluminous. So I
02:21like to use products that don't weigh my hair down.
02:23Start with a good curly haircut. Okay, that's, yes. A proper curly haircut is really
02:33going to put you on the right path throughout your whole journey. When you have that good base,
02:38that good curly haircut, you're going to feel so much better about yourself and your
02:43journey. Not only is it cutting off the damage, but it's also going to give you
02:48that shape and that volume. And that is like one of my number one tips and tricks.
02:52I love that. That's a good one. For me, I feel like my biggest trick has been maintaining my hair,
02:59like over second-day hair, third-day hair, fourth-day hair, sometimes fifth-day hair.
03:04Like, I love to pineapple my hair at night with a silk scrunchie. That's the key. Because I hate
03:14washing my hair. I like to just once a week do it and let it last forever.
03:18For curly girls, it's hard. You got to make it last as long as possible.
03:21So I love to use the Maui Moisture Sea Minerals Heat Shield Mist whenever I'm either diffusing to do
03:32my natural hair wash and go, or you can use it to do straight styles or curled styles. This is going
03:38to protect your hair from heat damage. Now, this is the Maui Moisture Hibiscus Water Detangler. It
03:44will detangle your hair super effectively, create a great amount of slip without weighing your hair
03:49down. It is an absolute game changer and it's perfect for all of you wavy babies out there.
03:54I like to use the Maui Moisture Volcanic Ash Conditioner for when my hair is feeling dull and
03:59congested. It gives me shiny curls and it really is a creamy conditioner, so it just feels amazing on wash day.
