✨Caring for my hair with waves👩‍🦱🫶

This is the first time I am trying a double braid with curl cream. I braided both sides of my head and twisted them together in the back, securing them with a hair tie.

I will wear my bonnet over night and hopefully my hair will be dry in the morning. #haircareroutine #lemon8challenge #haircare #lemon8beauty #braids

... Read moreMaintaining healthy wavy hair can sometimes be tricky, but using techniques like double braiding combined with curl cream can make a significant difference. From my personal experience, braiding my hair on both sides and twisting them together not only helps to define the waves but also reduces frizz and tangling overnight. Applying curl cream before braiding adds moisture and holds the waves in place without weighing the hair down. After twisting and securing the braids, I like to cover my hair with a satin bonnet. This step is essential as it protects the hair from friction caused by cotton pillowcases, which can lead to breakage and dryness. Leaving the braid and bonnet overnight allows the hair to dry naturally while maintaining the desired wave pattern. In the morning, I gently unravel the braids and find beautifully enhanced, well-defined waves that look natural and healthy. Regularly practicing this routine helps improve my hair’s texture and manageability. For those with wavy hair looking to amplify their natural texture, I highly recommend trying this method. It’s simple, low-maintenance, and uses minimal heat styling, which is always better for hair health. Additionally, you can customize the curl cream formula based on your hair type to ensure it provides the right amount of hydration and hold. Remember to choose products free from harsh sulfates and alcohols to avoid drying out your waves. Overall, embracing waves with care through protective styles like double braids and nourishing products can lead to stronger, softer, and more beautiful hair over time.

I tried out the viral Dae products to create beachy waves. I must admit I was skeptical. There was no way that these big influencers weren’t using other products or styling tools. I am here to report, they are sooo good. 10/10 I did not use a diffuser, may try that next time. …and they

Want thicker more defined curls or waves?
Your hair becomes how you treat it within reason My hair is extremely fine but dense granted it wasnt always so thick and full but through tons of trial and error I found the best thing for high porosity hair is obviously moisture but it also needs protein and striking a balance is hard at first

Don’t You Just Love Watching Fingerwaves?
Ooooooo waves are so satisfying to look at, and they’re so adorable once they’re finished. For those that like short pixie hair they’re the easiest to style when you get the hang of it, but not a moment before. I remember when fingerwaves were such a hurdle. Do you like this style? Comment Below
