Best Styling Products for Wavy Curls - Soft vs. Rough Textures ⭐️
Full video is on my channel! If you are unhappy with your results when you diffuse… it might be the techniques you’re using. If your goal is to get volume, root life, more shape, and prevent wonky curls, try these tweaks. These are 3️⃣ of the most common mistakes I see my coaching clients making - and how to fix them! ❌ Diffusing soaking wet hair ✅ Microplop to remove excess water, add extra gel if needed, then diffuse ❌ Scooping hair carelessly or gathering too much, causing bends and misshapen curls ✅ Making sure hair sits neatly in the diffuser and is evenly scrunched ❌ Diffusing upright only if your goal is volume ✅ Lean far enough to the side or upside down to gather the hair from the ends to the roots Have you experienced any of these? What will you do differently next time? ⬇️ 📲 If you want more personalized help with your routine or hands-on guidance and feedback on your diffusing technique, DM me “GROUP” on IG for information about my group coaching program and to sign up for the waitlist!
