Hi Courtney I wanted to thank you for showing Briogeo Charisma gel in previous video. I tried so many hard gel, nothing worked Briogeo Charisma gel is AMAZING my hair went from 2a to 2c WOW. Thank you so very much. PS I am from Québec Canada 😊

Loving your step by step videos! I'm letting my highlights grow out and embracing my grey hair....still working on the conditioning step to deal with those coarse grey hairs 😊. And love the Curlsmith line ❤

I’ve only just heard of halo frizz but I affectionately call it my lion’s mane. Lol I started actually adding my leave in conditioner to my roots and it helps SO MUCH. I officially started this method on December 31st, and my hair retains curl even if I don’t put stylers in and scrunch my hair and let it air dry overnight. Also, I would love any drugstore/Walmart heat protectant recommendations!

I loved this two part series. Need a good clarify and deep conditioning session. I’ve got a deep conditioner on the way, I just need to pick up a clarifying shampoo.

Those heat caps are helpful for headaches too!

Ooohhh good to know!

Perfect timing. I've been searching for a new, strong protein treatment that doesn't require a lot of pre-shower prep to use (thanks ADHD) and now I can try the Pattern mask.

I love the Pattern Treatment mask. I have 3b hair with a tighter curl pattern and it provides elongation and enough moisture for my needs. I don't think you have to use a mask for moisture unless you want to, as per suggestions on the label. It's an interesting scent that I can't quite describe but I love it. I used it with my Tangle Teezer for curly hair and my hair felt like a dream and after rinsing it out, my hair felt amazing. The Briogeo mask is a longtime love of mine.

I am blessed in that I don't get a lot of tangles. I usually only have to run my fingers through a 3 or 4 times and it's detangled! I used to have super tangly hair and then I started the wavy hair routine and it slowly got better. Coincidence maybe? I dunno! But it's one of the things I have loved about going wavy!

I wanted to love curlsmith so bad but something in their products make my scalp Itch like I'm allergic to something in it 😭

I've tried almost everything from their lines, but Curlmith does nothing for me. I also can't stand the smell.

Hello from Germany. Thank you so much, for showing and explaining all the needed steps and related products. I assume I need some deep conditioner with Keratin/ Protein as well. Now I will dive into the www to find a product here in Düsseldorf which comes as close as possible to your recommendations. I am really curious ablut this black "tup" called pattern curl treatment or so.....Thanks again and have a nice day, best, Petra💃🏽🍾🥂🥳👍😘

Protein snack 😂😂😂 I just love your sense of humor! I have researched how to make a thermal hair cap. As soon as I get my machine back from being serviced, I am going to make one. My hubby suggested I not spend money. Couldn't I just use the heating pad? 😂😂😂😂

They are not just expensive. I got water on mine and when I microwaved it, it caught on fire. I bought a replacement on Amazon for really cheap

How about using a semi permanent colored conditioner such as Manic Panic, Arctic Fox, or Lime Crime? And how about Henna? I LOVE your informative videos and your beautiful curls! Please, any advice?

Have you tried henna? I heard it can be drying and I already have dry hair

I used the Pattern pre-treatment and hate the smell.

Checked ur product area ,& did not find out the heat cap info. What is the brand of ur heat cap?

Hi Courtney! How do you decide what deep conditioner to use after your clarifying wash? I struggle with this question . I tried the strand test but not sure about it.. also if the deep conditioner has protein in, but not too high up, maybe at nr.10 or lower in the ingredients list, would this be considered a more balanced type of deep conditioner? And would it be ok to use something like that every time I deep condition? If hair feels dry after clarifying should you just use moisture or how do you know when to use a bit of protein? This confuses me, please any advice would be so welcome!😊🌻

The briogeo makes my hair feel greasy and heavy at times

Question: I have low porosity hair and i have read not to use protein? Can i still use Pattern?

I have low porosity, fine hair. And I've found that because it's fine, protien is actually really good for my hair.

The Briogeo Don't Despair Repair dries out my hair. I know a lot of people LOVE it, but it doesn't work for me at all

Wonder if it has the wrong protein for your hair? I’m trying it for the first time today so now I’m curious what it will do! My hair gets dry with certain protein products too.

Pattern one brand wash day soon?! I wash every 4 days and clarify every other wash., but always double cleanse every wash. This is how I can manage not to wash every single day.

No No No! Do NOT deep condition dirty hair. I agree with you. Way too much build up.
