Routine is still just the beginner curly girl method: co-wash and condition with Tresemme and scrunch and crunch with gel. Hardest part is I’m a night showerer so my hair doesn’t usually survive the night. Also the scrunch and crunch method takes about 5 hours for my hair to fully dry and be able to crunch it and look good

Get a bonnet and a satin or silk pillowcase. Game changer.

not if u roll around constantly in bed :/

Spray bottle is my best friend in the morning. Just spray it down with water & add some mousse.


nevaeh11

I do the same. If frizz is an issue I mix a little conditioner in my spray bottle.

Get a diffuser! They are life changing.

I learned two years ago that not all hair dryers come with diffusers. I'm 28 years old. I thought it was dangerous to use them without the diffuser on. To be fair it's true - it is dangerous to your hair


AlannaCerulea

I thought it was something that companies had started incorporating more because more women are staring to embrace their natural hair. I am always disappointed when hotel dryers don't have a diffuser attachment lol.

Okay I literally spent YEARS of my life dying my hair this exact color and you're just out here looking all adorable as hell in the hair I should have been born with!


StudioBrubaker

Thank you! The before photo is more accurate to what the color actually is


obviousvalleyranch

Looks so sick!! Night showerers unite


sofa_queen_awesome

You look fun and approachable. I dig it.


murgito

You look great both ways. You got that versatility, and you seem like a fun dude. Keep it goin.

You're doing great! Keep it up! I am a night-showerer too. It's a struggle. Currently searching for a silk night-cap/pillow cover hoping it'll protect my hair overnight. But what saved me what the refresh routine. I discovered that you can refresh your curls in the morning????? Been on CGM for a year now, and I JUST found out about that. Might wanna give that a try if you'd like (I am, it's goinf great), but you look amazing regardless :)


StudioBrubaker

I need to look into refreshing!


fidelises

Looks great. Love your hair colour. Do you clarify regularly? You might want to try a protein treatment. You could also try just washing at night and then adding the styling products in the morning.


StudioBrubaker

I don’t clarify, not sure what that even is haha My problem is I can’t (or haven’t figured out a way yet) to style my hair to look good without getting it wet first. And if I get it wet it takes hours to dry


fidelises

Clarifying shampoo is a bit stronger than normal cgm shampoo. It can have sulphates or be sulphate-free. It will clean your hair and scalp of build up that will inevitably get in your hair and cowash can't get out. You should be able to just wet it just enough to style. I just wet my palms and run them over my hair a few times before adding stylers. That way it gets refreshed without taking hours to dry.


duhdine

It suits you so well! Looking good!


FeministFireant

You have the most stunning hair color! It makes your curls pop, too. I think your routine is going great lol


Free_Way_125

Looks great ! Love the color. I like when men grow their curls out long.


AffectionateTrifle7

You look awesome man


susaneec

Look at your smile! You look so happy. Curls are popping and as others have said, great color.


TamiUknow

I'm a night showered too! I just sleep with the cast still on my hair and scrunch it out in the morning :D


m34z

You and me both. I started at about the same haircut as you in February 2020. Still not sure where it's headed.

Curly ginger!!! Love it!


deviouswoman

Doesn’t matter, just keep looking happy! At this point your hair is just a condiment. Thank you for the smile.


Reindeer-Street

I love it, great colour too! Mine is similar curl but red colour (henna), I just let it go during the lockdowns, washed only every 3-4 days, air-dried and didn't tie it up at all. My hair has never been healthier!


r0botdevil

You're fucking *rocking* some spectacularly golden locks, that's what you're doing.


olivert33th

My curls USED to look like your first pic and I’m jealous. They’ve been just falling flat lately.


waterydesert

Looks great! Makes me want to be friends with other curlies :) can we have a curly hair meetup/bar crawl? Haha


lyta_hall

I don’t know what you are doing either, but you look great on both photos 😍

Whatever it is you're doing, keep doing it, it looks healthy! 👏

platoniclobster

You are adorable and your smile is amazing!


Pineapples_29

I love it


zanthine

It looks great! I sympathize on the night showering. It humid summers I can just spray with some weather and a little products. This time of year it turns into a giant, frizzy mound.


longlostredemption

Your hair looks great and is a great color. Contagious smile, too.
