Hi! Anyone know how to manage this hair? It becomes very wavy underneath and in the back but straight on top layers and front….Shampoo recs, what to do after a wash, anything would be helpful. Anyone whose hair is similar?

My hair is like this, as others have mentioned protectant spray then dry. I use a giant round brush to try to dry into nice waves.
For work I separate into 3 layers and straighten starting at the bottom - it takes forever and only lasts one day.
For what it’s worth, when my hair is above the tops of my shoulders it’s the same texture mostly straight.

What’s your desired outcome? Mine is like this and I can get either beach waves or sleek blowout with different products and what not

Got it! So start with a good shampoo and conditioner that isn’t too moisturizing or have silicones, like briogeo or redken. When you get out of the shower, leave your hair in a towel for maybe 10 minutes to towel dry and let the curls start forming, then use a heat protectant and not your mothers texture spray, scrunch your hair upside down and dry with a diffuser

No shampoo or serum is going to get rid of those interior waves if you’re air drying.

You can either blow dry to smooth out the waves with a leave in conditioner/serum + heat protectant and a flat brush. Or go curly to help the front match the wave of the back.

Curl routines are super personalized but here’s a good starting place.

Start with a curl cream or mouse for definition, and a gel for hold. You may have to trial and error a few options to find what works for your hair.

It’s best to comb hair out in the shower and get your part set. Apply products immediately after you get out while hair is soaking wet, then scrunch with a towel to remove excess water. At this point, don’t touch it, comb it, or mess with it until it’s totally dry. Then you can scrunch to break up any chunks and loosen waves.

YouTube is a great resource, try finding videos from people who have similar waves to you.

Recommend looking into heatless curls methods if you're interested in staying away from heat. Abbey Yung is a great resource on youtube
