This was great thanks! Thumbs up 8)

[adriana308]

Very informative =)

I like you tubers who actually know their stuff.

[Bluepainkiller]

informative! i thought my hair hates curls but i think i've been doin it wrong! lol

[eiffel4you]

Very helpful! Thanks!! :)

[heirsoleil]

wow, this is super helpful! especially for those with no experience in this sort of area (aka MOI). for me, whenever i use a flat iron on my hair, it straightens but, well that's it. afterwards it gets limp and kind of stiff, doesn't move, and doesn't feel very good in general, but when, say, my older sister or a pro does it it's really bouncy and soft. and how do you properly get to the roots of your hair, particularly with natural hair/new growth?

[BabyCakes1388]

love the basics videos!! great job!

[TruccoTreat]

oh THAT'S why my curls always turn out looking awful! Thanks for the helpful tips Brittney!

[ieshalovesuF21]

LOVE your hair!!

[LadyBeex3]

CAN YOU DO A VID on how to curl straight hair with a FLAT Iron ?

[Luvinmia]

Is it still not safe to use heat on your hair even if you're using heat protection every time?

[china2207]

can u do a video about how to straighten the hair properly. cuz whenever i straighten i get that sharp line at the top after i straighten each piece of hair. hope that makes sense. and also could u do a video on how to bumb curl at the ends of the hair with a straightener. whenever i try to do it, it looks lilke a 90 degree angle instead of a smooth curl at the end. thanks!

can you do a video on how to keep your hair straight. my hair is naturally curly and when i straighten it, it'll be all straight for like 5 minutes, but after that, it always kinda curls outwards or towards my face, no matter what i do or put in it :( fixing this problem would seriously save my life lol.

Ha! my mother did this in Beauty School... she had a few heads and the one i loved was with shoulder length hair "lollipop"...

She always experimented on my head when she was at home though :(

I had grannyfros/church lady fros going to school sometimes... i hated it.

oooh the horror! NO one but me touches my hair now. :) :D

[RocsGirl]

@RocsGirl if you don't know grannyfro/churchlady fro aka betty white fro... it was just horrid

[TeaThymeInc]

What a SUPER helpful video... I just started growing my hair out and now it's a little past my shoulders and I haven't got a clue on how to make cute curls I tried this weekend and it failed and the curl didn't last, even with hair spray...a lot too....could you do a tutorial showing how to part your hair when curling, what to put in it and I see that after you curl you pin the curl right back up.....if that made any sense...sorry for a long comment...Thank u Brittney!

[BrittneyNGray]

@TeaThymeInc Good idea I'll do that next.

[KuriousKimmy]
