**laying in bed with hair down and a cotton pillow case**

Notes: -Don’t wash hair with shampoo/conditioner everyday -don’t dry with cotton towel, use microfiber/t shirt -apply styling product to wet/damp hair -use satin pillowcase -use styling products that actually fight frizz -do deep conditioning once a week -cut hair to get rid of stragglers Thanks a million 😁

Holy moly. As a mixed race, curly haired guy, NOBODY HAS EVER TAUGHT ME THIS STUFF! Thanks so much! This was INSANELY helpful! You da best! :)

I’m 19 and my hair has been curly for almost 10 years. No one else in my family has natural curls, and while they tried to help I only ever got half answers. In 9 minutes you explained how and why I need to do these things and I’m so thankful for the help. I just wish I hadn’t taken a decade to finally tackle the mess that is my hair.

OMG thank you! My boyfriend is mixed and he decided to grow his hair out 2-3 years ago and now it's pretty long. I tried telling him how to take care of his hair because I have sisters who are mixed and I would watch my step mama do their hair. Anyways he didnt listen to me and he would just wash it, brush it, throw it in a ponytail and put a durag on it and wouldn't touch it for weeks. Today he tried washing and brushing his hair and ended up getting it super tangled. So I had to sit him down, turn on your videos and start detangling his hair while he watched and listen to your videos. You are a life saver!

I would also say it is important to "Listen" to your hair. Some days you will need to add more product that what you usually use and others a lot less.

I have graduated Curly Hair University! I got my bachelors and masters degree in Curl health and curl definition! I studied how sulfates, silicones, parabens and all that bad stuff can make your hair 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽. I also learned how to get maximum definition and hold with curly hair products! I am getting my PhD in Curly hair growth because I want really long, really curly, and really thick and defined curly hair! Like this comment if you have graduated or are still working on your degree! (You can like if you are a under-graduate to though or not even in “Curly Hair University”! 😜😜😜😁😁😁

Wait are those pineapples in your background 😂

How doesn't she already have 1 Mio. Subs 🙄

Bianca, it took me 40 years to understand how beautiful is my curly hair, to embrace it and now to love it! Girl, this community you have build is so powerful, energetic, positive. We should embrace what we are, acknowledge our own black beauty! thank you for what you do!

I tried the pineapple method once and it was not the best overnight method for my hair. I find that the pineapple works for looser, not as thick, type 3 A-ish curls.

Hi I’m a newbie to this curly hair thing. Up until recently, I’ve hated my curly hair because I thought it was ugly and straight hair was the best especially growing up with straight haired siblings and being one of the two curly haired people in my family. My hair is short, frizzy, 3b, and poofy. I’ve come a long way excepting my curls. This has a lot of help on maintaining beautiful, frizz-free curly hair. Thank you!

I grew up on a reservation in Arizona. My mom is Native and tried her hardest to learn how to care for my hair, she did so good and I never paid attention and I’m struggling as an adult. This video is so helpful, thank you so much ❤

So many curly girls have no idea how to manage their curls and this video is amazing! Will be sharing this with all my curly friends 💕🌀 love you Bianca! Preach girl!

I didnt hear the most important rule. Brush your hair JUST when is damp. No one ever told me growing up, and I had no idea until a couple of weeks ago. :( I have always brushed my curls. :(

It’s all about trial and error guys. I personally don’t refresh, I cannot spritz my hair with water the next day lol

A guy with wavy/ curly hair thanks for the info really helps getting the curly hair

Thank you! I am transitioning from years of curly perming to my natural curls. Your presentations are so light hearted and uplifting, funny even, but always informative;-)). Love it!

*Don't understand how a cotton tee is great when drying hair yet you can't sleep on a cotton pillow? I don't understand this logic. Someone pls explain.*

You are definitely hair goals... it’s definitely gonna take me time because curls are expensive. 😭

Satin pillowcases are awesome - I agree! Most curly hair products absorb best with soaking wet hair. You should hear a “wet sneaker” or sloshing-type sound when you scrunch up your hair while applying product. Definitely helps with definition. If I apply product to even slightly drier hair, my curls aren’t as defined.

After watching some of your older videos I'm just amazed by how good your curls look now. The length, the cut, the color, less highlights, everything. Perfection girl!

*grabs pen and paper* 😂 no but seriously 😂 I'm a loyal follower but you can never know too much #SnapFam #NotificationSquad #TwitterFam #InstaFam

Went back to natural short wavy 6 months ago (after a lifetime of long straightened hair) and I only swear by your videos and your tips. Your videos are the best! From Montreal with love!

I used to hate my curly hair, but when I started watching your (and a few other’s) videos, I saw how beautiful and unique it could be. I still have so much to learn but thanks to your videos I’ll get there. Luv ya!

I always binge watch your channel. i am in transition right now and completely done with heat and you have made this process of getting healthy hair so much more attainable and feel like it is actually possible to get healthy and moisturized curls. I LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU AND YOUR CHANNEL!! keep posting girl

My sister has the most beautiful 3B-3C hair and it's just soul crushing whenever she says she hates her hair and just wants to SHAVE the whole thing off! I've decided to take over her curl care, starting with sulphate free+silicone free hair products. Going straight to your favourite products to find what sulphate/silicone free friz-control products there are out there.

I am close to being 100% curly girl for almost a year. You and India have been a great contribution to my journey. I love you

For someone who has a lot of frizz and 3b curls, this video was super helpful. Ever since I heard about how you’re not supposed to use a towel to dry your hair, I’ve been using a regular t-shirt for years. I recently bough my first microfiber turban-towel and as soon as I got out the shower I wrapped it up and I kid you not, not even 5-10 minutes after I took it out my soaking wet hair was 80%dry! Amazing because my hair usually takes hours to dry! No more dripping wet hair getting in the way of my styling and getting all over my body and floor post-shower! The microfiber towel is a game changer for hairstyling and I am never going back!!!

Great tips, Bianca! Been natural for years and I'm still learning what my hair likes/dislikes. I have 3 hair types that sprout outta my head so it's a struggle sometimes but I'm refusing to go back to relaxers.

Yep, I am one of your parents! And I watch your videos and you literally saved my daughters hair! I follow all your advice and her hair is just popping! Sometimes I just can't stop looking at her! So- thank you! Thank you very much and keep them coming!! God bless!

Thank you! Bout to show this to my mom for my little sister! They look at me like I’m crazy when I say all this.

When I was in preschool and my hair was shorter, my curls were gorgeous and amazing. They were healthy. Ever since I took care of my hair since 4th grade, its been straight. I use to brush my hair every single day! Now, I'm trying to take care and embrace my curls!

I’m a mix of Vietnamese and white with curly hair that my moms family has never seen before as they all have straight hair. Thank you so much my hair looks like yours and I’m not African American and my family never knew how to care for it thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️😭😭

I just wanted to say thank u! I myself have straight hair and Husband has curly hair but buzzes it off but of course our 5 year old has a full head of beautiful curly hair. I had no idea how to care for her hair and randomly found your video. So thank you she can no go into kindergarten with beautiful hair and not looking a mess.

Bingeing on videos tonight. I just want to thank you for putting out so much information. I was one of those who HATED their hair because I had no idea what to do with it in it's natural state. My mother keeps telling me how nice it looks and how happy she is I finally learned how to take care of it because I was looking like Don King. *her words* Thank you Ms Bianca! Keep doing what you do! Looking forward to seeing you hit the million mark. You so deserve it!

🥺 you're a life savior, I've been dealing with my daughter's coily hair for 8 years!!! Trying so hard to make it painless and easy for her gorgeous curly hair!!

Great video for newbie to natural hair

Thank you SO much 💓 My baby's hair is just now growing. She's 2 but I've been working on her hair for over a year now. I have wavy hair but my baby's hair is more like her daddy's - he's mixed. I've had THE HARDEST time trying to figure out how to take care of her hair and what products to use. This is the best advice I've found. 🙌 ❤️ I wish I had found this a year ago.

Thank you for your tips. I didn't know I had curly hair until I took my perm out. Now I protect my hair by using a deep conditioner and I have seen a big difference. Love this video.

I have been made fun of almost all of my life... Because of my hair was so curly and frizzy... But I started watching a couple of videos yours and one or two others. Wow am beginning to love my hair. Thanks for your video

I don't know what to do with my hair its like my head have all the hair types, it has kinky, wavy, curly and straight 😑

Can’t say the amount of times I’ve met parents with mixed kids and they ask how I do my hair, wish I could send them this video! And it’s usually fathers which I think is so sweet

I recently decided to embrace my naturally curly hair instead of slapping it in a ponytail & clinging to my wallet. FYI thank you both for the 10 conditioners under $10 video! I actually started liking my hair more once I figured out the curls meant no washing daily & no more brushing. Thanks to you & Curly Penny for all the great tips.

omfg i’m mad at myself 🤦🏽‍♀️. i always use a cotton towel, which explains why my hair is always frizzy afterwards 💀💀💀. thank god i ran into this video! thanks sm ❤️!

I've been doing my hair completely wrong for the last 23 years of my life.

I have very thick, abundant, high porosity 3c/4a hair. Whenever i put it in a pineapple, my roots would tangle like crazy. If anyone has the same problem, just do a lose, low pony when you sleep. Dont forget your satin bonnet and pillowcase of course

The best day of the week!!

If you are transitioning to curly hair i would definitely recommend braiding you in simple French or Dutch when you just cant with your hair. I think it is way better then putting in a ponytail or bun do to the breakage that i got sooo much when transitioning into my curls and the braid help keep some texture in because i used to straighten it sooo much too.

You look gorgeous (As always😉)

I have gone thru so many stages with my hair since elementary, lol. Wanting it straight cus there were barely any girls with curly hair, then washing my hair everyday from all the product I was putting into it to tame the beast lol, to keeping it in a bun throughout all high school, to dyeing it and chopping it and letting it grow to where I am right now, I love my curls and I know how to take care of them. I wish I knew then what I know now. This journey would’ve been so much easier lol. But thanks for making these videos for people to learn. You are awesome! My wife is always asking me who am I watching on Snapchat and I always say my hair twin cus we seriously have the same hair. ☺️

Do you have a video to determine density and width? I.e. fine, normal, coarse hair and thin, medium, thick hair? I know I have 3a/b hair and low porosity, but trying to figure out the other two. ☺ Amazing, informational video as always!!!!

when i was a little girl i had some curly curly hair like 3b-3c and as i got older i started to hate it cause it was always puffy and would never do what i wanted. well when i was like 10 or 11 i bleached and dyed it and my curls went away a little bit, and i started straightening it and they faded more and more over time. now im 16 and my curls are gone unless my hair is wet and i really miss them and want them back so im trying to transition back and iv been watching your videos for inspiration to do it. 💕💕💕

She makes the best videos it’s been 2 hours since she posted and there is no dislike!😀

I love your sense of humor and how informative you are ☺️ wish I had found this channel years ago. So so helpful

Please try Silk2 Hair products from Atlanta. They have a curly natural line that's amazing

Thank you Bianca Reene for helping the curl world with this helpful tips... 😘

You're absolutely adorable and I cant wait to get through more of your playlist. So excited to have found you at the beginning of my curly journey :)

I have been on my curly hair journey for about 2 month but this was still super informative! Thank you☺️☺️

Thank you for those great tips im new on the curly family im started my transition 4 months ago and i still working on how to understand my hair and what it work and how should i treat it i really like all your videos and your advice thank you so much you make a big difference in my journey

I’m learning from you and itscurlypenny and I am transitioning and my mom is the best but she doesn’t really know what to do with my hair so I’m here listening and I’m gonna try everything I can do to get my curls back I was looking at my baby pictures and my curls were so cute I don’t even remember the last time I saw my good curls

Thank you - I just started my curly journey - Falling in love for the first time with my natural curls #embraceyournaturalcurls

I straighten my hair & I get checked out, at least, twice as much. Very noticeably so. I get a blow out & all eyes on me!

Thank you for this video. My husband and i are working to become foster parents and i know at some point there will be children with curly hair and i want to know how to take care of their hair while in my care and so i can send them off with some helpful stuff and knowledge.

Hello ma'am, do a video on uncle funky's daughter curly magic. It's good, please. I would love to see how it does your hair. I'm a 3c/4a hair and it makes my curls pop! Girl Yes! Poppin'!!!

Girl I was just watching one of your videos from 2015 and damn ur hair grew so much your makeup look changed your look in general changed but ur funny personality stayed the same 😘 got yourself a new subscriber

I recently learned my hair is curly. I had no idea… it waves in moist air but apparently it will do more! Thank you so much! Subscribed and I’ll be buying stuff to fix it and getting a good cut

I am a mom to a mixed little girl and little boy their hair is so different from one another. Thank you I am starting to understand what to do with their hair!!

i got a perm and these videos helped so much. i’ve always loved curly hair so i got a perm and knew you needed to take care of it differently but this has helped so much! thank you!

I wish I knew of this tricks to take care of my curly hair as a kid. Back then I struggled so much to love my curly hair I would do so many things to make sure that my hair wasn't curly and because of that I had to cut my hair really short. So the years went by and I still hated my curls with a passion but, I came across one of your big chop videos and I liked your personality and the way you really love your hair and embraced it. Then I peeped on watching some more of your videos that I subscribed to your channel. I thank your for being you and teaching me how to love and take care of my hair. If it wasn't for me watching your videos I don't know what would have become of my hair. keep it up and never stop making videos love them.

My hair is exactly like yours minus the color ! :) good job on the channel !

I truly believe your videos have saved my sanity! I just have been having such a hard time with my mixed child's hair!! I just want her to feel beautiful and confident with her hair! she has curls little bit more lose then yours. I just started watching today but I will be applying your advice by the end of the day! thanks again!!

Could you do a length check video to see how long your hair really is?

You are literally the best! I love watching your video's to help with my curls! Keep it up girl!!!

I used to be one of those who hated my curly hair, but that's because no one ever taught me how to care for my hair. I felt forced to wash my hair every other day because after a nights sleep the curls were gone and my hair was just dry and frizzy. Kids in school told me my hair looked like steel wool pads. This is why for the past 20 years now I've been straightening my hair with a flat iron. So I'm completely new to this now that I've decided I want to leave my hair natural. I just watched your video on different curl types. I'm a 3a.

Would you be able to create a video on the cheapest n best products to buy for curly hair? Like brands of satin pillowcases or hair bonnets, spray bottles, oils, etc. If you have already then I apologize I'm still catching up to your channel but I really appreciate your wisdom and knowledge!!!

this is soooo helpful thank you sooo much you and curlypenny have saved meeee you both are the best I'm so glad that I've found your channel. Keep doing your amazing work💕💕

Shout out to the straight haired parents trying to figure out their curly haired kids! Bianca you have taught me so much, thank you!

It's funny how you think I know this I got this down with learning how to maintain your hair but there can be loads and loads of things that you have yet to discover and this is so cool and amazing to think you know everything about your hair but in reality you just know a tiny portion of your hair

wow u have already helped a ton w other videos. i had no idea i was doing my hair wrong this whole time!! but thank you so much u make me love my hair more!

New favorite curly girl KZfaq channel. Binge watching. 😍

oh girl I have been watching every video for the past 2 days since I found your channel! I'm your newest curl friend heyyyy lol. I will say that I haven't cut my hair at all. But in the past 3 years I have been doing 6 months out of the year curly. and my hair has completely changed every year, the curls are more defined and everything. and I JUST am starting to find stuff that works for me! As I am is my brand I swear I need the entire long and luxe line lol

My hair is wavy it was curly but I hated it and it's really damaged from straightening it for years I can't wait for it to become healthy again . This helped me so much thank you for that.

I AM SO LATE BUT I AM IN LOVE WITH YOUR VIDEOS!!!! Can’t wait to binge watch them all!!!!

I liked the way she said "This video is for you" like youuuuuu with the finger

is it just me or does she look like megara from disney hercules 😍

5:08 What kind of hair tie is that, that you can just easily rip it off your pineapple without ripping all your hair out??

You are fantastic! I definitely enjoy learning how to manage my curls with you!

I myself am mixed and have a white sister. Surprisingly she's the one with the curls haha. She's 15 now and mom has tried to treat it like straight hair which obviously didn't work out too well. Now all of us have very thick hair and she also has very long hair. I don't live in the same house but I have tried to help a little here and there and look up how to take care of it, now that mom leaves her alone. Does the pineapple still apply for super long hair? Like should she just make a really lose bun? So far we've only focused on moisturising her hair back to life, cutting the bits that just have no hope and looking up what else we can do. I will definitely get my parents to buy her a proper pillowcase and look into more products to help her The biggest issue is hairstyles though. She has a sensitive scalp so tight braids are a no no. I do braid her hair so it doesn't tangle up as much. She definitely still struggles with what she's been told all her life, aka brush it every day.

Always giving great advice!

Like the different filming location, and your hair looks beyond fabulous here!!!

Why did I ever try to learn about curly hair from anyone other than the Queen of Curl herself

Thanks for the tips! How would u pineapple shoulder length, thin curls? My curls do not behave the next day.

I’m not in curly hair 101 anymore but I need to tell you how much I appreciate your videos. You are the reason I went natural and heat free nearly a year ago. I look so different than I used to and I love my hair now! Is it possible to have a bad curly hair day???? I’ve tried a lot of your suggestions and most of them work for me. I started using sulfate free shampoo and more specificity Castile soap to cleanse my scalp and I LOVE IT. I can only use a very tiny amount though. Like a teaspoon for my whole head. Have you ever tried Castile soap for shampoo?

Love love love love love your hair and I already know what you are going to be talking about but everyone watch to the end ❤️❤️❤️❤️ love you

Favorite time on a Sunday!! Love from Trinidad 🇹🇹 😊

Your vlogs are awesome! Frist time that it's actually fun to watch and listen to a vlogger. Also very handy tips for those stubborn curls!! Thanks and keep up the good work!!!!

Hi! Such a wonderful video for a newbie & a parent of a daughter with curly, coarse, & frizzy hair. She has ringlets like you but it sounds like my daughter's hair is "transitioning", I think? She has a lot of long straight pieces of hair that won't curl. Most likely because we have not been doing anything right with her hair. We have tried tons of products but probably didn't use correctly. Believe it or not, but she had straight as a board hair up until she was in 3rd grade. Since then its been through so many phases and we have not been able to figure out how to do her hair. She ended up getting bullied at school and my mom & grandmother passed away within a month of each other (all this happened at one time). So I ended up taking her out of school and homeschooling her. We have just got to figure out how to do her hair. We have just recently decided to Embrace her hair & look for ways to Enhance her natural hair!! She is wanting to go back to school next year. She will be in the 8th grade. Sorry for rambling but I just wanted to give you a back story on her. If you know which videos of yours that I need to watch first, please give me a list and let me know. You explained everything so very well. Please help us-lol! Thanks so much!

Amazing info! I love your videos, but please bear in mind that kinky/coily hair doesnt have to be thicker than yours, or thick at all. Lots of people with type 4 hair have really thin hair, but because of the way their coils come together, it might look really thick. I'm in the type 3 range, but my boyfriend is a 4A and his hair is super thin, especially compared to mine.

I haven't been really paying attention to my curls lately but this vid was a great reminder thanks so much have a happy and blessed marriage☺
