I started my curly journey in 2018 and since then I was always on the hunt for products and tehniques to make my hair as curly as possible.I used to be 3b, then my curl pattern loosen a lot and I freaked out. For months I've been sad and angry that my hair is not how it used to. Your channel helped me accept and understand than not only a certain curl type is beautiful and as long the hair is healthy,I should be happy. I cut myself bangs 3 days ago and I feel the most confident I've ever been. No one asked but I am very excited 😅

I've unlocked the secret to my 7 day hair! Wash day I wash and style per usual. I sleep in a pineapple, then before I shower I use a light mousse or recurling spray. I plop, and stay in that plop for my entire morning routine (at least an hour). The little moisture and plop seems to liven up any stretched out curls. I fluff and touch up as necessary.

Maybe I’m just reaching that point in transition (5 months in) but I tried this method twice and it has given me the most defined/organized curl clumps of any styling technique I have tried. Thanks for passing this one along!

Coincidentally, I saw the same video this morning and decided to try her wash day routine. My hair turned out really nice. I also found it a bit awkward to do but with practice I think it’ll get easier. Thanks for all your videos, Courtney. You do a great job and are very pleasant. God bless you and baby girl!!

I just love this method, so I'll be trying it. Love the baby girl bump! Adorable.

I do something similar, but right side up. At least for right now, I can't style upside down because it just never ends up falling correctly around the crown of my head. I'm currently dealing with a lot of thinning hair in that area so even tho it gives me volume it's just not worth it right now :( so I've been taking my wet brush and brushing my hair up off my scalp in sections and it's done wonders with volume and also covering up problem areas. Love how this technique worked out for you!!

“I had seen it on the instagrams” 🤣 loving these types of videos. I tried the flip coat scrunch yesterday and it turned out a mess LOL. Let’s try this one next! Thank you Courtney!

Oh. My. Goodness. I just tried this and am blown away!!! I discovered my curly hair a little over 2 years ago. This was the fastest and the nicest my curls have looked. Thank you Courtney for sharing this!!!

When you first turned around and came right side up I was so nervous because it looked very webby in the back, but I love the end results. It looks soft and glamorous and gorgeous

Your results were so great! I didn’t think it would work this well for you. I have used this technique my last two wash days and my results were also much better than I expected. I feel like this is a great mix between the flip coat scrunch and brush styling and I plan to continue using it for future wash days.

Curl clumps and baby bumps ❤️

I have seen this technique on the interwebs too. I am trying this next washday, I have a brush on order. I’m a total klutz, so I’m sure it will take me a few tries. Thank you for sharing this!

Ooo I hadn’t seen this method before, and am excited to try it! Scrunching alone is always messier for me, but my brush style is sometimes too much brushing, this one might be a good middle for me! I’m excited, and good to see baby girl! Looking great 💜☺️

Looks beautiful! I can't stretch out my washdays either. I can skip 2, sometimes 3, days in between washing but that's about it. My skin/scalp is way too oily to go longer than that. It starts getting itchy and I can't stand it.

Maybe not using the comb after the brush to break up the clumps. You may have more definition then. I think she does it to get more volume and her her is super curly and she would have like 15 big curls otherwise. Just a thought🤔

This has been my fave method for the past few months, but I found that 2 sections is better than 3 for me I only section front to back. Now I'm playing with 2 side sections and 2 front/back sections.

Am I the only one who was feeling bad for voting for the method that made our beautiful pregnant sister hang upside down? 🤦‍♀️ Sorry Courtney! Thank you so much, I’m definitely going to try this! xXx

I'm impressed you are bending upside down with your bump! Hope the last few weeks go smoothly! 🥰

I have been doing it and I’m happy to say that finally a technique that works. I have low density, low porosity and extremely fine hair.

This is great to watch someone demonstrate this technique who has wavy curly hair. So many videos are way curlier than mine, and when duplicating their techniques, it just doesn't yield the same results. Will definitely try this technique. Thanks, Courtney.

It looks like you are about to take glamour shots. But in an absolutely amazing and fabulous way.

Your hair is beautiful! Oil doesn't work on my baby fine waves. I always skip it. I have used CurlSmith purple line gel as it's more a lightweight serum to smooth over if I need something. Most times, I just use a pick to comb thru and that gets rid of any crunch from stylers. So excited for you and your family -- can't believe baby girl will be here soon!

Pregnancy hormones made my straight hair wavy. It took me five years to come to terms with that and now here we are!

I am so glad you are trying this! I have very similar hair type to you and I have been curious if this will work.

Oh my look at that tummy! 😍 It's so cute!

Enjoy your video to demonstrate how to style for wavy hair. You have lovely hair 🌷

Bless your heart, I hear you having trouble breathing. Beautiful!

New to the journey of embracing my wavy curly hair, tried this method this morning and I have to say it’s my favourite so far! Great way to get the product evenly through.

Welp, I tried this a few days ago and I while attempting the steps, I thought *why* am I so awkward?! 😆 I was so happy to hear you - our favorite, experienced wavy/curly girl, talk about being awkward! 😉 My results weren't nearly as beautiful as yours, but duh to me...I forgot the _comb_ part! 🙄 I'm not a refresh girl, so whether I wash my hair or not, my hair gets "the hose"! 😂 (A Silence of the Lambs reference) 😬 So glad you're feeling better! ❤️

I have a very similar hair type to yours and the ONLY time I've ever been able to get my washday to last an entire week is when 1. I did a full styling routine with Curlsmith's hair makeup gel (it gives my hair extra grit and is slightly drying to my hair) and 2. I wore my hair in a pineapple for the majority of those 7 days. My hair gets greasier faster when it's straighter and when I wear it down so with the combination of the gritty gel, curly hair and the pineapple I was able to get away with 7 days. But my hair needed some MAJOR detangling and a pre-poo treatment after the week.

I tried this method yesterday and got compliments all day on my wavy curly hair!

I follow Sophie on Instagram too. She has such beautiful curls! But tried this technique on my also fine, low porosity, wavy hair after seeing her post. My results we not nearly as amazing as yours, so you have inspired me to try give it another try soon with the same Intersense combo 😊

Ur so lucky, I don’t even have enough hair to make three sections 😔 love ur videos

A little less definition but that volume!!😍 Comparable to the video of you doing India's routine, maybe more on this one! Either way, absolutely beautiful as usual. ❤ Side note: Sending you prayers and positive vibes on the arrival of baby girl.❤👶

i love all her videos so much cos she has such sweet mom vibes, my mother is wonderful but she is in no way interested or involved in anything beauty or hair or anything, so i have to figure out how to look after my hair myself (very difficult btw 🥴) so watching it's like i'm getting the mom-teaching-experience, it's so so comforting! also congrats on baby nearly being here, sending all the bestest vibes for a healthy and easy delivery! :))

Love how voluminous is it!! I have stretched it out to 7 days and by using an oil really helps with that on my hair and i do have a looser curl pattern as well. But my hair really doesnt get oily fast either so take from that what you will. Oh I only use 1 or 2 drops of oil rub it through my hands and fingers thats all I need just so i dont create more frizz with my dry hands lol.

I can’t wait to try this!! I loved the flip, coat, scrunch technique, and have been using it ever since you posted that video. But the volume you got with technique has me SOLD!! My hair is pretty similar to the originator of this technique too, so I’m excited to give it a try!

I really really love this look on you!

I think your hair is fabulous with any product or technique you use. However, there is always something I learn. Thanks.

Both this and the flip coat scrunch methods are awesome for your hair type. Extra points for you for being able to bend over like that while you’re pregnant. I was never able to move that way, so far along😁

I was waiting to see the back of your hair, I notice with the regular upside down gel and scrunch I get horrible weird tangles in the back and even scrunching out the crunch doesn't help. Will try this tomorrow

Love Innersense and so does my hair.

Courtney, I just watched Manes by Mell’s video where she tried several recommended products. I’m here to request you do a video using that weird brush from Jayme Jo. That brush is all wrong for real curly hair, but I think it might be perfect for us fine wavy girls. Hope you’re feeling well and getting plenty of rest. And don’t forget to keep your feet up. 😊

So pretty! Love the technique ~ and I have been using Virtue hair oil & it says to shake & only use 2-3 drops which has helped me not to overuse & cause greasiness~ 😁

Thank you for this video and I'm so glad to see u weren't perfect at this technique either!😂 I always think I'm the only one who can't get styling techniques right so I'm glad to see I'm not the only one❤

😍😍❤️❤️ Courtney, your results were so beautiful!!

Your hair turned out gorgeous! Also, not hair related, but your eyes look so bright in this video! Thank you for all your styling help!

Drat! I just washed my hair. Am gonna try it next time. Your hair always looks so shiny and bouncy. As a side note…36 weeks went by so fast(maybe not for you lol).

Thank you for doing this! I saw it and was interested in trying it, but I was scared because my hair is way looser than the creator, so your video gives me a more realistic idea

Your hair looks gorgeous and your so radiant. I’ve done this style routine once and love the coils I got from it. I didn’t get the extra volume though. Gonna do again. I go 7 days between shampoos and don’t use oils

I appreciate that you are sharing this with us despite it being your first try!

Tried today...but standing up because my back would not tolerate that much time bent over. Worked fabulously!!!!

Your hair looks amazing! Your baby bump is so cute! When I was pregnant I always looked like I was having twins because my belly got so big.

I have this exact hair type it's been so hard to find someone with 2b hair like mine 💙

Tried it. Wow. More volume. More definition. Thanks

Your hair turned out so beautiful! I'm gonna have to try this. 🙂

My rt side has 2c and left 2a always hated it! but after working on curl training on my left it is changing. This is why I always straightened, permed, or curled my hair always before 3 months ago ...things are changing

Wow!!!! So pretty!! I am definitely going to try this method.

When you flipped your hair right side up, the way your hair reacted, I related so hard. I can have perfect juicy clumps upside down, they look slimey and wonderful, and then when I flip back up, no matter how careful I am, they just… shatter. The best I can do is not flip right side up until the cast has formed halfway through diffusing, and then only my roots are crazy. So frustrating, but I still get better results styling upside down than right side up

Turned out so pretty 😍!!

I feel like SOTC with oil weighs my hair down and it looks greasy, even if its the tiniest amount. I use it for pre-poo and overnight treatments 👍🏻

This is technique for you !!!!!😍😍😍 lm going to try it

I’m trying this technique tonight for wash day! Although I definitely don’t think I’m gonna use the comb because I need all the clumps I can get😂

Ooh I had watched one on Instagram with a slight twist - they brush styled then scrunched the back section first, using their arm still, and then flipped it to the back, followed by the same with the middle, then front, which I think would really help those of us that get that rats nest in the back (the extent kind that shaking head & roots doesn't come anywhere near fixing). I want to try it but I'm still nervous because I have multiple cowlicks in the back where the hair actually grows out in a swirl pattern so that curls at the back of my head grow up then down, then going in a circular motion from there, the next set grows to the side then down, followed by growing to the other side then down. Like a sun burst. I have 3 of these that all merge together. It's crazy.

i need to get better at this method, but i definitely could see that there were good results - i just need to keep the sections apart!

That looks really amazing 🤩 I can't wait to try this myself. Thank you for sharing this

I’m going to try this next wash day!

You are adorable, I love your very helpful videos.

Have to wash my hair every 3-4 days also. U R so cute Courtney.

I've been upright styling my hair with the Behairful brush for the past few months and I get seriously great, out of this world definition with it (I never expected I would fall in love with a hairbrush) but the volume is lacking, even if I diffuse upside down. Maybe I could try this method with my brush and try to get the best of both worlds.

Love it!

You and baby🍼 look great❤ Thank you Courtney curl scientist⚗🧪

Trying this with inahsi prods right now - fingers crossed!

Courtney, have you ever retried a particular styling technique a second time around? Thinking back to all the videos I've seen, most context creators try something for the "first" whether products or a styling technique. I also wonder if a second go around would give better results? Especially since our hair gets use to the products we regularly use so trying something once may not really give it (new products) justice. I hope this makes sense and just something I've been thinking about. Also if you retry this technique can you try with the oil when you finish the final scrunch? For comparison? Thanks!

Maybe the oil would be helpful on 2nd or 3rd day for Cruz, if you get it. Good video! Helpful

This looked very soft, shiny and voluminous! How much time did this take vs the flip coat scrunch method?

Nope! 3 days is my max for a wash day. My oily scalp says “no more”

Great video, thank you! How did you diffuse your hair with this method? At the end of this method, you flipped your head right side up, while making sure the roots were away from your head. When you diffused, did you follow your regular diffusing routine? I watched your previous, excellent, "updated how to diffuse" video. In that video, you started with your head upside down, followed by right side up, then upside down, and finally right side up. Does this diffusing routine work with the flip section method?

Hi, from Indiana ! Happy Friday

Courtney, I have a question about the Innersense products used. The Quiet Calm Curl Control and the I Create Hold both have glycerin in them. The curl control has glycerin as the second ingredient and I Create Hold glycerin is about 2/3 down the ingredients list. Your hair looks great! I watched your videos about glycerin and I’m struggling with my hair so I’m trying to avoid it. How can it be that you had such a great hair day?? I own many Innersense products that I’ve taken out my rotation due to glycerin. I live in south Texas where it’s typically humid, but this cold front has totally changed things. Please help!

Not using the oil is totally fine. I even have curly hair similar to the girl in the original video, but oils just create too much heaviness, even light oils seems to create a “oily look”. We all know our own hair. The beauty is taking other methods and making them our own! 😀

Gotta love pregnancy brain which may have added 6-7 minutes of emptiness to this video. I say that just in case it messes with your engagement rates that the video isn't fully watched. :D

I hate oil. It always screws up my hair

Your hair turned out beautiful. Thanks for the fun video. What is brush styling?

Hi, I just started this journey, but my hair tends to be really tangled no matter what I do. Can you give me an advice, what I should do about it? Thank you

Oh, I'm really intregued to try this technique now! But I don't think I even own a wide tooth comb 😅 did something happen with this video? Since the last 5 mins a just black 🙈

I wonder how the Denmen brush would work with this method? Instead of the paddle brush.

I've been thinking about that boar bristle wet brush. I'd love your thoughts on it! I have a tangle teaser fine & fragile which is great for detangling as well a denman-style, but my hair slips right through them so they don't really work for brush-styling. I saw a fine-haired wavy influencer recommend a boar bristle/nylon pin hybrid for brush-styling and have been thinking about it for a few weeks :)

Hormones made my hair curly 😁

I tried this my last wash day, I will keep trying….

Hey Curly Courtney! Do you ever try to put your hair up in any way? Just curious to know and see!

I'm low po and i HATE oil on my hair i never use it because it becomes way too much of greaseball too easily.

So- question for everyone. I have been interested in the curly girl method for years but I thought my hair way bone straight. Then I realized my hair curls/ gets wavy when it’s wet and curls when it’s cut. Idk if my hair is curly, and does anyone have any tips? I don’t want encroach on an area that’s not mine if it doesn’t belong to me? Thank you, everyone, loved the video!

I recently got the Shark Hairdryer. Even on the lowest setting it feels REALLY hot. Hotter than my previous dryer felt on medium or even high. It's actually uncomfortable because it's so hot. I feel like this is WAY too hot for curly hair. Does anyone have any feedback on whether my dryer isn't working as designed, or if it Is really supposed to be this hor?

My hair is only curly when i finger coil with gel what this means

I can't use oils either. They give me frizz.

Innersence doen't work for me and is too expensive Shea moisture is the best and so much cheaper!

Nah you didn't need the oil to scrunch out the crunch, it would have ruined your wash day.

When are you due? I will be praying for a healthy baby for you
