HOW TO REFRESH CURLS (BETWEEN WASHES)

hello everyone Hannah here welcome to my channel and today I'm gonna be showing you how i refresh my hair in between wash days so today is day 4 hair and it's been in a pineapple all last night all yesterday and all the night before so we are about to experience what this day 4 hair is going to look like together so I'm going to take it out okay this is what we are working with one thing that I will say is when you take your hair out of its pineapple in the morning leave it to settle for a while because it always looks crazy when you first take it out you leave it just to rest for a bit your curls will normally find their place and it will okay but today because my hair has been up for literally two days in a row I'm gonna need a little bit more than just letting it settle it's a very flat on top a little bit method let's show you the back as well my in the shower refresh is something that I do pretty much every day so this is just really quick literally take your hair out of the pineapple at the end of the shower and just glaze some water over it that technique I'll usually do every day and sometimes that is enough so de - I'll do that in the morning in my shower and then I'll let it air dry out while I'm doing my makeup and then I'll assess whether or not I need to further refresh my hair but because today is day 4 and I know for a fact it needs refreshing I'm gonna go ahead and do a few more steps so I've clicked my hair up just because I hate having wet hair in my face so I'm gonna take that out I'm just gonna take some of the naughty intensive-care leave-in conditioner and I'm going to take a small amount just a bit bigger than a pea-sized I'm gonna add a little bit of water to that in my hand this flare is all water because it's covering my hands look down my arm flip my head forward I'm just lightly glazing it over my hair I know some people do sort of like a praying hands motion where they put their hands together and put it down there but I just cannot do that because it pulls my curls out I want to enhance definition and that would just make me lose it so I'm just lightly glazing it just to smooth frizz put a little bit of moisture back into my hair very lightly scrunching that in at the ends okay sniffing little bit over the top okay so that is step two moisturize now the ends of my hair are moisturize enough and it's more moisture in with their leaving conditioner I literally only added a small amount of that because I already have product left in my hair from wash day so I don't want to have product overload so I'm going to use my spray bottle and just wet it slightly wet this top section because this section didn't actually get wet in the shower and this is where it's quite flat so in this inner wet this section down I'm just very gently taking [Music] so now I'm going to go in with some gel I'm going to use the bounce curl light cream gel I really like this still especially for refresh is so I'm taking about this much as some water in my hands with it just to emulsify it I'm going to flip my head upside down do the same thing that I did with the cream just squat options here encourage my curls to come back into place just gonna take a little bit more gel water I'm going to gently smooth it over [Music] [Music] okay so I still have a little bit of frizz on my canopy I've got some excess product still in my hands I can still feel it's quite sticky so I'm just gonna wet my hands again and I'm gonna add too much product to the top of my hair because it won't weigh you down and make it greasy so I'm just mixing put it in my hand [Music] [Music] my hair is a little bit damp now virgin or wet so I'm going to diffuse it dry and then I'm going to come back once it's diffuse and just double check it might be fine I might be happy to go over there or there might be a couple of pieces that I want to spot refresh and I'll show you how that's done I'll be back once it's dry I have diffused my hair it's now fully dry I think always worry this not fully dry like this you shouldn't really touch your hair when it's done because it can create an excess frizz anyway you can see that I've got some halo freeze but to be honest that is completely normal when you're doing a hair refresh your hair gets frizzy as the days go by and I really don't mind having a little bit of frizz on my refresh days it's functional frizz and it gives me more volume so my hair has dried hard and crunchy in some places and that is because the gel that I put my hair has been reactivated along with the gel that I've just put on my hair now so I'm gonna scrunch this out okay so my hair is now fluffed out and to be honest it's not too bad there's a few pieces that I want to further refresh like at this bit that it seems to be matted together at the back I can't separate I want this to go over this side but it's got other ideas so if I wet it and Reese quench it then that will solve that problem and there's a few pieces on this side as well that I want to really get curl but for the most part it's not looking too bad would you agree I've got my water bottle I've got my gel and I've got this crazy piece of hair that doesn't know where it wants to go so just position myself so I can see the mirror hand on my hand you could see me right I'm gonna take this piece of hair and I'm just gonna wet it gently finger detangle it in a bit tangled oh so be gentle okay so this is wet and very straight so I'm gonna take a little tiny weeny piece of gel make six giving my hands and I'm gonna singular okay so that's one another piece that I want to do is this section just because my top sections are a little bit flat I'm just going to wet this bit down here because it wants to come with it see if you just do the top sections and redefine them then no one's gonna know what that underneath is looking like so Phil ciao [Music] you see gel over I'm gonna make it through six coming let me shake it just to help it kind of to see how its kind of finding its Cohutta actually I'm gonna make this one a bit wet it up you don't have to do this every day I definitely don't I usually just do steps 1 2 & 3 this is just if you've got some pieces that just are doing what you want go and where else I'm going to do this come here I love the spray bottle so much I used to have one that just spray like a harsh light but this one it's like a contiguous I didn't feel about that I loved it so good for refreshing because it doesn't create breeze or and it's not harsh on your hair got a knot but because I've got put up in my hair already I've got the leaving condition and I've got my products and washday it's a lot easier to detangle and if I didn't have any product in [Music] Hotel actually I'll have better luck when they've been a lot wetter the sections of hair so the first one I didn't add as much water as I have the last couple and finding the comb you're not better okay so I could go on all day and do this but it's meant to just be a quick refresh I'm just showing you literally how you do it the next step for me then would be I would diffuse these pieces and scrunch out the crown and then I'll be done so I'm gonna go do that and then I'm going to show you what my hair looks like when it is finished my hair is dry I'm gonna fluff it out I'm gonna flick it upside down shaking out the roots really helps my part was a bit weird so shaking out the roots has helped it to sort of find its place again I'm going to give it a little fluff at the roots with my scalp massager just to really help separate any toes stuck together [Music] so there you go is all refreshed and it looks ok for day for hair that's just been refreshed right I mean I go out like it I really hope you found this video helpful and that you found some tips and tricks on refreshing remember that I don't typically do this entire routine every day I will take steps from it so I'll probably do the glazing the water over my hair in the shower most days some days I add gel some days I'll add cream I like to add cream actually before I go to bed and my hair to soak up moisture I sit over night and there's a little tip for you then times I'll do like a spot refresh on just some pearls that need refreshing normally on this side because this is my other side so don't feel that you need to do the entire routine just take what you need from it sometimes literally I'll just glaze water over the canopy of my hair just get rid of some frizz so yeah it really is whatever your hair needs on any particular day if you did enjoy the video please feel free to give it a thumbs up leave a comment and don't forget to hit the subscribe button because I will be making more videos more regularly now but and yeah I really
