Product/technique recs for hair type?
Hello all, I've been experimenting with my natural hair for some time now and have happily gotten to this point so far.
I have very soft-finish hair that is somewhat fine and low density.
I am getting a trim today which should hopefully help a bit, but I was wondering if anyone had any product/technique tips that would benefit my hair type?
Looking to prioritize volume while having a pretty good hold for both said volume and also curl structure. (this pic is right after I finish, it definitely falls some after this point).
Also if anyone has tips for getting/maintaining waves/curls within the midsections (+volume in general in the roots) for hair like mine that would be nice! (Soft finish+less curl def near roots makes it very difficult lol)
I did alot better when I took this than I usually do with achieving this, but volume still falls in the mid-sections+roots pretty fast even if I manage to get it in the start.
(I also struggle with side parts as my hairline is less than ideal lol)
Thank you for anything!!
Current routine:
-Shampoo twice with Giovanni Root 66 Volume shampoo (or occasionally a cleansing one for the first go)
-condition and detangle with Curlsmith Full Body Milk Conditioner
-(after washing) re-brush and plop with microfiber towel lightly
-apply a tiny bit of Curlsmith Hydro Style Flexi Jelly and scrunch
-apply TreLux ReFlex Curl Styling Serum and scrunch
-apply The Doux Mousse Def Texture Foam and scrunch
-diffuse upside-down; some time all hair in diffuser for volume, then in alternating sections
-switch to diffusing with head up, bringing hair+diffuser up to my roots in sections (sometimes with a claw clip at my middle part to keep hair off of scalp)
-alternate between these while scrunching lightly throughout
-halfway through ish apply a bit more mousse
-keep alternating with drying methods
-once hair is mostly dry add very light hairspray and finish drying
-fluff it out
I pineapple it up to sleep with a silk scrunchie and use various refresh methods.
