Intro

They also mention that they will answer some frequently asked questions about their hair at the end of the tutorial. Kris starts by showing their hair after waking up, noting that it is typically flat and straight before styling.
Washing Hair
Kris discusses the importance of washing hair properly, recommending shampooing only once a week to preserve natural oils, which are essential for achieving a better texture and a fluffy or wavy look. For those with dry or damaged hair, like theirs due to bleaching and perming, Kris advises using products specifically designed to combat dryness and damage. They also emphasize the importance of washing hair with cold water to reduce frizz, enhance shine, and retain moisture.
Towel & Scrunch
Kris explains the proper way to use a towel on hair to avoid damage and frizz. Instead of roughly drying the hair, they recommend gently scrunching it with the towel. They demonstrate the scrunching technique, emphasizing a gentle approach to enhance waves without causing harm. This method is particularly useful for those who already have wavy hair and want to make it curlier.
Fluffy Hair Tutorial
Kris shares two techniques for creating fluffy hair using a hairdryer. The first involves simply blow-drying the hair upside down, preferably with cool air to prevent damage, focusing on lifting the roots. The second technique uses a round brush to lift and dry sections of hair, creating volume and waves. Kris advises experimenting with heat settings and drying time to achieve the desired result.
Styling Products
Kris recommends using texturizing products to enhance texture and hold, mentioning favorites from brands like Statement and Got2b. They also suggest using volume powder, especially for those with thin hair, to add extra volume. Kris cautions against using too much product, as it can weigh the hair down and reduce its fluffiness. While hairspray can be used for extra hold, Kris prefers a more natural look.

They also advise against sea salt spray due to its drying effects, especially for already dry hair.
