Hi everyone! So, I guess you could call this a "Part 2" of my last post, since it also involves curly hair. I wanted to show you guys the products that I use (and also the process) to get ready and to style my hair the way that I do. I am aware that these are not the most highly-recommended or expensive products in the world, but they get the job done, and that's all I'm really concerned with right about now. Maybe, if I get a Deva-cut or Ouidad-cut, I'll care a little bit more, but ALAS (haha) I'll have to live with what I have. So, I'll get started with the products I use, and so on. Please comment :)
I use this first! (about a quarter-size in my palm)
I run this through, almost like finger-combing, but gentle enough to not pull out my curls

Then I run this through (about 2-3 pumps)
I do the same thing as the moisturizer above, finger-combing and scrunching (sometimes with my head upside-down) to get it all the way through my hair evenly - make sure not to pull out your natural curl, or your hair will become frizzy!

AND NOW WE WAIT...
...For about 20 minutes, hair up in a loose bun. Usually during this time I'll do other things, like eat breakfast or pack my bag, sometimes I'll even do my makeup
Then I use this mousse, but I honestly don't use a big amount. I shake and spray upside-down into my palm, literally for about one second. According to curly-hair experts, mousse is supposed to dry out your hair, but I don't think it's been having that effect so far, so I'll continue to use it because I honestly think it works well on shaping my curls.
I SERIOUSLY use barely ANY of this - I simply swipe my hand across the top of the product, which is a gummy paste-like substance, in order to get a little bit onto the tips of my fingers. Then, I rub in between my hands lightly and comb through my ends and layers
After waiting for a bit with my hair down and in it's "shape," I'll flip my head upside-down (some experts say this is NOT good, but others recommend it...it's confusing) and blow-dry with a diffuser. On days that I have a little bit more time, I'll just let my hair air-dry, because that's healthier for it, especially since I don't regularly use a heat protectant (I know I'm bad)
I set all of my hard work with this hairspray (the smell is not AT ALL my cup of tea, but I'll take it because this stuff works really well)
