General advice? I’m at a loss
Hi! I’ve recently started leaning into my wavy hair but can’t seem to find a routine that works. I can tell my hair is wavy because when I scrunch it after the shower you can really see the waves and a few curls. I’ve tried using a leave-in, gel, and mousse then diffusing. The pattern didn’t hold. I’ve tried diffusing without the leave-in and again it didn’t hold. I’ve tried the routine without diffusing and it honestly looks the same as when I diffused (barely any waves/curls).
Is it the products that I’m using? Or is my hair too long/heavy to hold any curl pattern?
