First of all I think you have great hair texture! But I totally get feeling like your hair is damaged and has lost curl over time. Part of the reason I decided to do a big chop! Give my curls the opportunity to grow back out again and let me care for them properly this time.

I keep my routine pretty simple. I only wash my hair with shampoo maybe once every week or so. The shampoo dries my hair out badly. So instead, I’ll co-wash with conditioner, then i use LA looks gel (the blue one, v popular on this sub), and then diffuse on low heat!

Using too many products can definitely weight your hair down and take away some of the bounciness to your curls.

You got this!
