WHAT'S GOOD EVERYBODY!! At last, the video you've all been asking for!! But here's the thing.... There's currently a lot of talk and controversy around DevaCurl right now, and I know a lot of you are going to question my using of their products. Be assured that i am aware of concerns and the claims Deva users are making regarding serious hair troubles... This is one of the only products i really use and its mostly because the smell. I personally have not had any problems using this specific product on my hair, or of course would not have shared. Having said that, so many of you have confided in me sharing your personal experience with the products, and i know many of you want to hear from me what's going on. I am diligently researching and working on a video to help get to the bottom and explain the mess thats going on. Stay tuned for that video very soon, and remember to monitor your hair, only use what feels right to you, and make sure to clarify!! That's all I'll share for now, Thanks for tuning in, I hope you like today's video!! Lots of Love from both Your Mane Girl Mell and Scientiffy Mell, we will see you again very soon....

Thank you for looking into it! DevaCurl trashed my hair in 2 1/2 months just using a gel, so my eyeballs got a bit bigger when I saw that part in the video. lol. I love your hair so I hope nothing happens to you!

Can you also talk about the Think Dirty app and it’s credibility too? I downloaded it after seeing the scandal break out. I bought some organic hair products based off their rating system and ingredient explanations, so I want you take. Thanks Mel!!!

Would LOVE more headscarf tutorials! Could we get Amanda in on them too for curly/wavy girls with longer hair? Whenever I pineapple or do some of these top of the head styles I look weird af. :\

Agree. I have long wavy hair. And that scarf in her hair was so cute. I wanna wear scarves in my hair like that too on bad hair days! Even good hair days when it’s hot out.

Hey Mell, what do you think about the DevaCurl controversy going on about their products using damage? You've probably had a hundred people ask you this already, but I really wanna hear your take on it.

I have stopped using all devacurl products and I’m not sure if it’s a case of “correlation does not imply causation” but my hair stopped looking shitty as it had been lately. I never used the shampoos or conditioners (except for the leave in). I was using just the styling products. I started using much cheaper styling products (not your mothers; Marc anthony) and I’ve had much better hair days recently.

THANK YOU GIRL! I do HIIT workouts 6days a week and my hair was just a mess. Regardless, I only wash it 2 times a week. This week I have been using my bonnet (because I workout from home) and i love how my curls look, like I actually have curls and not just a DISGUSTING MESS. My husband cracks jokes when I wear it, I look like a cupcake, but this thing is a curl saver. Love it and recommended it to my family. Thank you for your advise, you are awesome

The head scarf video would be super useful, especially in time for Summer. 😁

I've been dying to know this because I don't want to damage my hair 😭😭 thank you!!! 🙌🙌🙌

Perfect timing Mell! The sweat from Pilates and running four days a week training for a half marathon has been taking its toll on my tresses. Thank you so much for posting this; I can't wait to watch it when I get a break from work!!

a queen who works out for her followers youtube concers

You got answers for questions that I haven't even thought of asking but needed 😅

I’ve always loved the sweat. I practice yoga every morning and it really helps me refresh. I see the difference when I don’t practice and sweat in the morning. Always loved this sweating. I’m happy this video validated what I’ve always thought worked for me!! ❤️❤️

I would LOVE a video in different ways to wrap my hair in a hair scarf!!

Omg this literally is the most perfectly timed video! I just started going back to the gym- and I’m still trying retrain my curls... I don’t wanna have to fingercoil more than once a week!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!! I literally workout everyday and my curl care has gone down the drain because I have no idea how to upkeep it, and it’s so much easier to put it in a bun. I also work with kids all day so it’s easy to keep my hair up so it doesn’t get pulled. PLEASE post some headscarf tutorials! I am dying to try new protective styles with my hair ❤️

YES to the hydro fatigue video! Thank you so much for providing us with amazing and useful content!

I been following Mell's curly girl routine for a long time now.💯 She is my inspiration. 👑🥰

I needed this video!! I may not work out everyday but I have an auto shop and I am outside moving around all day long! Thanks for being so detailed and knowledgeable!! Love ya!!💕

Texture tuesday seems to becoming around quicker quicker and I love it

Thanks Mell! You've been really helping this curly um boi on his lil hair journey. The rule still applies wash it when it stank and itches.

This makes so much sense! I had a bad case of dry scalp, irritation, redness and flakiness and since I started working out my scalp is back to normal which helped bring the moisture back into my hair and curl pattern. Working out has so many benefits! Who would of thought it could help your hair and scalp! 😅❤

Great video! So happy to know I didn't do everything wrong! I'm going to try all the options you showed! I workout even 4 times a week, and I sweat so much... Since I changed my routine following your tips, my curls are so different! So happy! Thank you! :D

I KNEW youd cover me. I usually just showered whenever I wanted to... now I'm being more careful with my hair. And you've been my lifeline since I decided to actually take care of my hair.

I'm soooo thankful I found you Mell!! Been binge watching your videos the past few nights 😂 I've always wanted to wear my hair natural but was too scared and have had PTSD of horrible hair days because I didn't understand what products my hair needed to survive in the humid climate I live in. I love that you literally have a video for every hair concern that pops up...today's was 'how do I workout and maintain my curls' again thank you so much for all your amazing content, I appreciate you infinitely....YOU'RE THE FREAKING BEST ❣️❣️❣️❣️

Thank you for sharing this with me!! This is the reason why I do what I do!! Thanks for the love ❤️

Going to the gym after work tonight so this is perfect timing! So excited 😍

Omg you crack me up!! I would like to see more about the hygral damage thing you were talking about, more ways to use scarves, and more styles for working out!

I feel like this video was literally directly to me! I mean I had definitely commented about this topic and am currently watching with a massive smile while on the elliptical! So like I seriously love you!!!!! You’re ama-za-zing!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Yay! Thanks for this Mel 😍 I really love all your videos. I cannot stop rewatching them all 😍

I work out 5x a week and STRUGGLE how often to wash my hair and over manipulation from scrunchies. THANK YOU for the advice!!! You’re amazing!! Invisibobble is LIFECHANGING

Yes, please, a headscarf tutorial ! Love your videos, Mell ! ❤️

THIS IS EXACTLY THE VIDEO I HAD BEEN LOOKING FOR! I love it!

My hair texture has changed from pin straight to more textured over the past 5 years or so, and I do home physical therapy exercises regularly to manage chronic pain and dislocations, so these tips are helpful!

I love your videos. I like how you break down exactly why you do certain things and what it does to your hair. I’m really struggling with my wavy/curly mostly frizzy undefined hair and I’m hoping to lessen to understand my specific hair needs.

I literally was just worrying about thus because I work out 4-5 times a week in the morning before work! HELP!!!! And thank you for all the info ♥️

I've been waiting for this video FOR YEARS!!! 💖

I would really like a tutorial on how to do a quick refresh and style after working out. Love all your videos and have learned so much!!

I've been waiting so long for THIS video! Thank you, Mell :)

Thank you for this video, Mel! I loved your energy and you gave such helpful, well researched tips. Your videos are the best!

Yaaaas! I've been waiting for this video for so long!

Bless you for including a link to a silk scarf. I can't tell you how hard it's been trying to find one

I’d LOVE some different ways to tie hair up for working out! Thanks for all your knowledge, it’s helped me so much. 😊

I am SUPER glad that I have found your channel Mel! For THE longest time I was trying to figure out how to maintain my mane, but was having no luck. The curly girl method worked for me for awhile, but eventually it got too expensive and there wasn't much growth in the definition of my curls. Since I "didn't have time to style/keep up with my hair" because I'm SUPER BUSY on the daily, I just opted to wear my hair curly on Sundays, then throw it in a tight bun or crown braided for rest of the week (*I KNOW, horrible for my curl pattern, but hey sue me lol). Anywho, I just started following your advice on how to wash and style curly hair on Wednesday morning and refreshed it this morning. I am beyond thankful that you provide such excellent advice, and would LOVE to ask you more questions about my hair specifically. I do have socials but currently do not get on them. I do have e-mail if you would like to reach out and help ya girl out!😊 With Gratitude, Amani Netanya

Really needed a video like this since I've been working out more consistently. I'm gonna try the loose braid out next time I workout!

Thank you so much for all your wonderful videos teaching me how to finally actually take care of my hair. You're soooo funny and entertaining to watch!!

Thank You!!! So glad you responded to this question - more head scarf styles please!

I've been waiting for this one! Thank you!

Thank you for this! Please come back to this with more information, a part 2!

Thank you soooo much for this!!! Questions are finally answered! Thanks Mell 💜

Omg that headband is a game changer. Thank youuuu 🙏🏽

“Another fun fact alert’!!!😂😂😂you are sooo funny Mel! Love it!!!❤️💕😊👍

From one #CurlyWonder to another I can’t tell you how excited I was for this video!!! I really enjoy working out but I don’t enjoy having my hair suffer from it, you’re a true blue lifesaver🥳 I’m new to the Manes by Mell Community and stumbled upon your channel by pure accident after what seems like a never ending sea of “curly hair guru” channels and I’d rather be late to the party than not be at the party at all, lol!! Your KZread channel and videos are AMAZING, the knowledge you drop is on point plus, your personality is positively vivacious🤗 So thank you for helping me to get my multi-curl type head back on track, healty, and stealthy🤓🥰🤗

I love the working out in a bonnet as well - at home lol! Love the satin scarf idea.

Fantastic Mell! Great info---y ou is saving our curls YET AGAIN! XX

Hi Mell!!!! Love your videos. Cuz of you I started my curly hair journey.

Currently working out while watching this 💪🏾 I need my hair to still look good if I keep this up.

I'm out so I cant watch this yet but quickly clicked on it to give it a like and say I'm so excited to watch this once I'm home!!! ♥️

Lol love the hair flips and shaking for testing the styles

I second the hair scarf tutorial with the seesters! Would love it!

Sweet girl you are brilliant with your videos. They're always entertaining, informative, and keep me from getting any work done. Excellent!! Love you 💗 thanks for the shout out!!

Okay, now THIS is the video I needed! Thank you

Thank you for making this video! I have been looking for answers and you answered them all! You are the best!

I feel like you have been listening to my thoughts. Was just about to ask about workout hair. Need those hair ties and some scarves. Thank you for teaching me how to care for my curls 😄

Hey Mell! Yeah please do a video on different head scarf styles to use. Also could you make one on some tips on how to keep your hair healthy and taken care of for those of us in the military? Thank you!

Ohhhhh thank you thank you! I asked for this when you asked for suggestions via an IG story and was really hoping for this!

This was so helpful!!!!! I’ve noticed a change in my hair - it’s become really dry, even when wet 🤦‍♀️ and now I’m thinking maybe it’s because I’m washing it every other day, because the change coincides with upping my workout routine.

Love this video! 💕💕Can’t wait for the hydra fatigue video and how to get out of that cycle bc I think I might be stuck in it 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

I would love more scarf hairstyles! Especially for long curly hair!

... and the bloopers at the end are always my favorite! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Please post videos on hairstyles, specifically buns and braids. I work as a nurse and need my hair out of my face at work, but am not sure what to do with my fine curly hair. Love your channel, so happy I found you! I just started going curly like a month ago and I’m 30 years old 😳

MELL! YOUR HAIR IS LOOKING FABULOUS! It’s getting so long and so voluminous! I’m loving it! I’m loving your humor! (Definitely going to be a ME-ME 😂) and am loving your content! Keep on keeping on! Proud of you and what you’ve done! 🥰❤️ you have hair GOALS!

I love and swear by Ouidad products. I’ve been using them for 15 years. Best on the market.

Girl, I gotta go to work, so I can't watch this video now. But thank goodness for it, I'll definitely be watching later!

I have been looking for something like the zazzyband for years! Thank you!

Great video!! Your sense of humor reminds me of That’s So Raven, which is awesome.

Oh my goshhhh, I needed this so much!!

I would love to see more hairstyle ideas with headscarves!

You my mane girl Mell! I’m thrilled that I found you! I’ve been a Curly Girl method preacher and loyal follower for over 15yrs; it literally saved my life as a puberty induced curly fro girl. But I am excited and inspired to revamp my hair care as it has sorely been neglected over the years. I work in a hospital and have to put my hair up, often to be beneath those OR hair nets from hell. (Insert GIF of choice here) so I’m wondering about more protective styles for under hair nets, helmets, hats etc. also, yes a scarf video would be fun. I am a sucker for buffs and that’s been me go to at work, but I’m wondering what your opinion would be on that. Keep em’ coming Mell, your vids are awesome!! Side note, i have hair almost exactly like Amanda’s. I too am of Italian decent, so I think we prolly have very similar hairs. 💙💙 thanks!!!

Oily scalp curly gal here...Prose has THE BEST dry shampoo I've ever used....and I have used SO MANY. It's just powder, no nasty aerosols but the pump *puffs* it nicely to distribute through your hair.

Zazzy band?!?! 😲 I have been looking for a comfy headband for my giant head for sooo long. Thanks Mel!

I've been waiting for this video since foreveeeeer.

Great video Mel! I would love to see more styles with the scarf for the gymmmmm 😊

i just started working out and i had the exact questions so THANK YOU very much for this video!!!!

loved this vid! would also love an more in depth conversation about hygral fatigue. i’m a swim instructor and get in and out of water all day everyday, if you could also maybe mention how to best combat hygral fatigue it would be super helpful for me and hopefully other people too!

+1. In my case, I get migranes when I shower and not at least wet my scalp. (I live in a hot and humid place)

I would love to see a video on hygral fatigue and on how to tie scarves (especially for longer hair with a looser curl pattern).

Mell I really want you to download the app think dirty - shop clean because you can type in any body or hair product and it says from 0-10 how bad the product is for you / green to amber to red !!!! It was a great video btw xx

your vids come at the perfect time thanks its like your reading my mind

You always have the answer for me Mel. Thank you 🥰

Yes!! The video was looking for. Thank you so much💗

THIS CAME RIGHT TF ON TIME!!

Oh my gosh ! Light bulbs were just going off while watching this video ! Thanks so much for the tips !

YESSS!! Much needed , thank you!

Well this is good to know. I wondered about wearing my bonnet. Lol I have never heard of that headband. I guess I'm buying one of those! That's exactly what I need!

You litterally read my mind! Tomorrow I am going to workout and I was like what the HELL am I going to do with you hair? But guess what don’t fear cause mell is always here!😂🧡🧡

I truly feel like I’ve been waiting for this video my whole life. THANK YOUUUU. Now slightly unrelated- what are your thoughts on avedas new nutriplenish? I know you used to be Aveda all the way and wonder if you still feel that way or not so much. Thanks!!!

Please please please make a video with best ways to keep curly hair up (with satin scarves, invisibobbles, tiaras etc). I always have to wear my hair up for work and I can see I cause sooooo much breakage 😥 the one with winter options for hoodies and bonnets was a lifesaver 💚

Guurl, love love luuuuv the volume in your hair here.

Thanks so much for this video! Great advice as always! Much love ✌️

Your hair is looking fabulous!! Goals!

Mell and Amanda you have helped me a lot with my very curly hair!! You both are a curly hair angels!! It will be great to see a video with headscarf styles. My face is oblong-oval shape and I don't like my fringe. Until know I have always straight my fringe but I am tired of it I want to keep it long and curly like the rest. I hope it grows quickly and I can have a fringe like yours! If you free and you want to do some video about oblong face/curly hair styles IT WILL BE VERY WELL RECEIVED TOO!!! THANK YOU FOR ALL WHAT YOU DO. ALL THE BEST! Inma, Spain
