Naturally curly hair (mga kulotchina)

[charmedPrue]

^ nice tip sis, tie it to a bun. Magawa nga

[ruthieteezle]

^np, sis! Para kung kukulot, mas maayos.

i also have curly hair, the big ringlet kind. i got called goldilocks a lot as a kid. it annoys me when people touch it though, so i usually just pull my hair straight back and up in a bun every day. people are actually surprised to find out i have curly hair, until they go to the beach with me or see my hair after i get caught in the rain LOL.

it sucks na there's very few products for curly hair here. even drugstore brands like pantene, wala padin. i have to ask pa from relatives to bring me back shampoo from abroad. i mean, who asks for shampoo as pasalubong?!?

i use shampoos/conditioners for dry or damaged hair instead so that my hair is super moisturized and frizz free. i don't have to use any serums or creams na after. mas tipid, IMO.

where do you guys get your hair cut? may nagsspecialize ba in curly hair? i'm so tired of stylists cutting it all one length, which in my experience just leads to triangle-head. parang they can't cut my hair any other way. hay. and the worst was the stylist who insisted on giving me a vidal sassoon haircut! i looked like little orphan annie/ the kid on the alaska evap can for weeks! no freakin joke.

i was thinking of tony and jackey, pero that's permed hair, right? not naturally curly? i'm still on the fence whether to get my hair cut by dudes who don't speak english. yung naiintindihan na nga ako hindi parin maganda yung gupit, what more yung hindi ako naiintindihan?

same dilemma here.. ang hirap magpagupit kasi nakakadala. kaya kapag may mejo ok na gupit, dun lang ako sa kanya nagpapahaircut.  Now, ang prob ko is lumipat na siya kaya di ko alam kung saan magppagupit.  Magppahaircolor or cellophane din ako kaso hindi ko pa alam kung saan ok.

I have dark brown curls.  Nung nauso yung rebond dati, deadma lang ako.  Natuwa pa nga ako kasi I stood out from a crowd of girls with straight hairs.   Minsan nakakainis lang kapag tatanungin kung natural yung haircolor and curls mo tapos hindi maniniwala.  Minsan naman sa daan, naloka ako ng may mga bata na hinihipo yung buhok ko. Pero ok lang, mas marami namang nakaka-appreciate. hehe.

i've tried peps silvestre of peps salon and so far, siya pinakahiyang ko with my curly hair. i've tried several -- propaganda, hairworks, etc, tony & guy but from now on, i will stick with peps. hirap lang sa sked because of his celebrity stylings.

hi count me in kulot/wavy din hair ko problem ko is very dry at buhaghag talaga. Anung ginagamit niong products para hindi magbuhaghag? lagi ako nakapony lang. Gusto ko na din pagupit ng maikli na lang...

[prettybarbie]

super effective sakin ang frizz-ease hair serum kaso ang hirap humanap pinapa ship ko pa online

[gullible]

Ako rin curly/wavy hair…dati pina-rebond ko and marami naka-appreciate nung pina-rebond ko…problem nga lang pag nagsimula na mag-grow ang natural curls ko…sa November ko plan na ipa-rebond ulit pero dahil sa thread na’to parang nagdadalawang-isip ako…cute din naman ang curly hair sakin ang problem ko lang ngayon is dry and buhaghag talaga hair ko kaya lagi naka-ponytail…kahit nakaponytail may mga short hair strands pa rin na nakaatayo sa top…

Try ko run yung ginagawa ni sis ruthieteezle ….blowdry and bun…baka sakaling magwork sa hair ko…

sis, do you brush your hair?  ako kasi, i do not even comb my hair so that the curls are defined.  when i brush or comb, that's when pumapangit and buhaghag.

i also put a styling a cream, mouse or gel while it is still wet.  then air dry na ako.  and aways use conditoner. 

[Razzy]

^Sis ganyan na ganyan din ang ginagawa ko sa hair ko.

Rule number 1 yan ng mga kulot: Never comb your hair. Rake it lang with the hair product of your choice. Tanggapin na nating mga kulot na wala na tayong future sa suklay, hehe, at wag nang mainggit sa iba na carry magsuklay whenever they want.

@keetee: sa rustans lang ba meron nun? how much?

[keetee]

^sis gullible, im not sure if they have it elsewhere.  im not even sure if they still have it at rustans. maybe at the market market dept store. they have a lot of imported stuffs there that you cant find anywhere else.

other products i recommend:

sebastian potion no. 9 (got this in hong kong).  i find this best for my hair. it's just a leave-on hair treatment but it defines the curls and hindi mainit sa scalp. non-greasy too. hair serums kasi at times, mainit sa scalp. i wish this is still also available locally.

garnier fructis style curl shaping gel - nice din ang pag define sa curls.

finesse mousse - also recommeded by my hair stylist.

[gullible]

tnx, sis keetee...will try one of those

[lyrahs]

naturally wavy at kulot din ang buhok ko. Sobrang dry at buhaghag din. Ayaw ko ng magpa-rebond, naaawa na din ako sa buhok ko

Lagi ko na lang tinatali pero yung mga kaibigan ko sinasabi sa akin na ilugay ko naman daw. One time nilugay ko sya, sabi nila maganda naman daw. E para s akin, mukha akong bruha kasi nga buhaghag tska may bewang na dahil laging naka-ponytail. Gusto ko na nga din ipagupit para mawala na yung rebonded na part.

Try ko nga wag na magsuklay at hair cream na lang ang ilagay

[SophieStella]

i hate malagkit and oily hair, imy hair is wavy as well, and all creams, serum, and others na nilalagay ko sa hair ko ay malagkit, matigas, or will smell odd.

[textspeak!] po ba ang pwede kong gamitin so i can wear my hair free of pony tails? thanks

ako lang ba ang nkaexperience na malagkit na cream? kc everybody seems to be using a cream or serum....

[cai2179]

^before pag di ko gusto yung amoy ng cream i put cream silk leave-on pa. i dont like v05 curl defining mousse, not worth the money. kahit hindi matigas sa hair, malagkit naman tapos ilang hours lang buhaghag na ulit.  @keis you're right maganda pa yung sa sunsilk and mura. kaso ayun matigas sa hair, kaya for occasion ko lang ginagamit. pag normal days lang, i use splash hair polish. re-apply lang pag medyo frizzy na. mura lang naman so perfect for everyday use with my thick hair. right now im still searching for a good/affordable hair cream ulit for occasions na kapalit ng sunsilk mousse.

[sheenaQ]

hi! pasali po

I don't have wavy or curly hair,actually I have really straight-thick-full of volume hair..exag talaga sa kapal ang hair ko..anyways,last year I decided to have it permed,and I LOOVED it!! hehe..although magastos talaga because high maintenance siya kasi you really have to invest on good products para perfect ang curls,in my case permed lang sya..and then talagang ubos ng oras kasi hindi mo pwedeng i-rub with your towel,I dont know bout you,pero ako air dry talaga and most of the time dripping wet pa yung hair,para lang madistribute ng mabuti yung product na ilalagay.. marami naman naka- appreciate nung curly hair ako,mas bumagay nga daw saken..hehe..kasi nakakasawa na yung lahat ng makasalubong mong girls(even boys) nag paparebond!! and it is so obvious!! diba?
sorry medyo may pagka perfectionist ako pagdating sa hair,kung straight ang hair,dapat shiny,super smooth and polished..kapag curly naman, dapat intact,super shiny and bouncy!! hehe..(vain talaga!)

anyways,tama yan mga sis !!embrace your being naturally KULOTCHINA!! kapag nakakakita ako ng mga gals na naturally curly and nakapony tail lang,nanghihinayang ako,kasi hindi niya alam may mga gals na will try to do anything just to have hair like hers! tapos siya parang nahihiya lang,sayang naman..diba?


oh! and if this might help,I use Monea curling milk lotion, citre shine curl booster gel,sunsilk curling mousse(w/c is both discontinued) and loreal curling creme.. apply an ample amount evenly on damp hair then air dry.. I still comb my hair pero when its wet lang and before or while conditioning para no tangles..hope this helps

[keetee]

citre shine gel for curls (dont know exact name) is good for defining curls too.

usually di ako hiyang sa serums.  nagiging frizzy din kasi agad, di malaki anfg curls.

i used to use sunsilk leave-on too. ok naman.  the sunsilk mousse naman, di ko rin hiyang. matigas masyado lumalabas.  di ko nga naubos, i gave it away.

[cai2179]

^discontinued na yung citre, sayang mukhang okay pa naman. malaki yung curls ko eh(type 3a) kaya ang panget pag buhaghag. parang hindi lang nagsusuklay. though i dont really comb my hair that much.

@keis ang ganda ng color ng hair mo, bagay talaga sa curls may color. takot kasi ako magrisk before kaya dark brown lang pinacolor ko, so hindi din halata unless natatamaan ng sunlight.

@sheenaQ how much yung monea and loreal? hindi ba malagkit/matigas? madalas din ako naka-pony tail(as in pusod) dahil mainit. inaaway din ako ng mga officemates ko before kasi ang ganda naman daw ng hair ko, bakit ko tinatago.

[pinkplush]

hahaha..after lurking on this thread.. Now im loving my curls
