VIDEO: Final Thoughts on Curly Hair Products, Skincare, Self Tanner & More!

Each month I hang on to the products that I’ve used up so I can share my final thoughts on them, and if I plan to repurchase. I’m always in “declutter” mode because I have countless products but tend to stick to my favorites that I know work. These videos help motivate me to finally finish up products and share my final thoughts.

This month’s video contains lots of hits and misses for various curly hair product lines I was testing from Kenra, Moroccan Oil, Living Proof and more. I also finished up some of my favorite skincare products (we’ll see how long I can wait to repurchase until I use up my other stuff).

Low Maintenance Curly Hair Routine | Best Curlsmith Products for Travel
Struggling with flat roots and a lack of volume? Diffuse is key! 1. After applying styling products (gel or mousse is critical for hold), scrunch hair with a hair towel. ⭐️BONUS TIP: For extra hold and to tame frizz, apply another light glaze of gel or mousse after microplopping. 2. Flip hair upside down and plop it over a counter or other flat surface. Hover your diffuser around. No flat surface? Gently cup your hair in sections. This will prevent elongation. Hover the whole time if you want elongation. 3. Flip right side up and cup the ends of your hair in the diffuser and press up towards the head. Angle the diffuser towards your hair versus straight up to prevent frizz. 4. Use the prongs to lift the roots up and hold. Having a diffuser with long enough prongs that extend out past the end of the bowl is key! ⚠️This is why I don't recommend the Dyson because the prongs are not long enough and it gets way too hot. 5. After hair is dry, fluff out the roots and scrunch out the cast with dry hands. ⚠️ You can finish air drying if needed but wait to fluff after it's fully dry! Settings I use are high heat and low fan speed. I alternate to medium heat on the ends sometimes. This diffuser does not get too hot even on high!
