just a quick question on "how to get looser curls"

Now, forgive my ignorance, but isn't it a bit of a stretch (haha) for 3c hair to ever look like Taylor Swift's? Wouldn't this be more a 2a pattern? I'm new to this site, and a bit older, so I'm not going to wish for hair that doesn't grow out of my head to look like this, but isn't this sending the wrong message to younger 3c girls?

No disrespect, I'm sure she's a lovely young woman....

....and I wouldn't want to give our young curly boys a complex, either!

I'll check out your video.

you have some beautiful curls, Corbin!
I probably should read the article before making any judgement calls, it just looks like curling iron action curls to me.

thank you lol. my name is Carlos. i just named the video Corbin because it was a replication of Corbin Bleu's hairstyle.

someone on here posted a pic of her natural unaltered hair(i will post it below). its your typical white girl hair. long, frizzy, and wavy. she def has some curling iron action going on when shes on the red carpet

My bad, Carlos! Her hair looks beautiful just like that,to me....good frizz!

What would send the wrong message to younger girls?

Remember there are toooooons of ways to style your hair into looser waves if you want, if you look on youtube you can use a curling wand or do a chunky braidout.

yes but...is it a MAGIC curling wand? Just playing. Now that I think about it, Curlformers could probably achieve that look.

Seriously though, what is a curling wand?

I know 2 things that loosen your hair pattern a bit but the wont give you taylor swifts hair

Henna, makes hair stronger thick ,and loosens the curl pattern a bit

And the Cherry Lola treatment

full fat yogurt
baking soda
Briggs Amino Acid ( food grade)

I just do braids on each side for a few hours with Shea butter + Goddess Curls Gel then it's all good. In fact that's all I did this week: I didn't want for hair to dry for hours after co washing so I just made it really damp, applied products,braided up, then took em out and BAM: a good hair week!

Now I'm bored and wanna go back to my shrinkage.
