Do your curls fall straight when you brush style? Here are the most common reasons why... ❌ Not enough water ✅ Ensure your hair is wet or damp when applying products and brush styling ❌ Products are too thick ✅ Use lightweight products and thin, liquidy gels. You can also dilute your thick gels with some water in your palm. ❌ Pointing your brush up ✅ Reach over your head and point the nose of the brush downwards. Adjust the angle until the strand curls better. ❌ Not applying enough tension ✅ Applying tension ensures the curl gets “ribboned”. Ensure the hair is wrapping around the rounded edge of your brush. Apply tension with your hand or wrap the hair around the handle as you glide down. BONUS REASON If you’re brushing in the wrong direction your hair won’t curl. Try going in the other direction until it curls. Stay tuned for my upcoming Reels that will show how to determine natural curl direction. 🎥 To learn more watch the YT video linked in my profile!
