A short transcript excerpt from Janine Jarman's YouTube video "Straight hair who?!" in which Janine and a client discuss transforming very straight hair into 'tight curls.' The clip includes background (previous perms/cuts), descriptive commentary about hair texture, and practical styling steps and products for diffuse drying and curl preservation.
Start with high heat, high speed for about five minutes, then switch to low heat, low speed until fully dry.
Illuminating salt spray.
I want to do the tight curls.
Okay.
The tight curls have been my favorite. We did tight last time, but I think it's been about almost three months now.
Okay.
Because I think I did two cuts in between.
It grew out so cute. Let's make this crystal clear. This is so deceiving because people are gonna think, oh, you have, like, body. His hair is, like, the straightest stick straight. Yes. It is the straightest thing on him.
And now it is after the fact, but it is the straightest thing on me.
Somebody El made that joke one time on my video, and I just had to do it again.
It is the straightest thing on me until I get it firmed.
Yeah. But I. It's funny because I. We've been doing it for so long. I've had people say, oh, well, he has, like, wavy hair. I'm like, no, you don't understand. He has, like, stick out. Like, he didn't have a perm, and he's just sticking out in every direction.
And I can't do it. Like, when I didn't have the perm, I couldn't do anything to it. I would have to put, like, I did, like, Garnier sleek and shine in it.
And it was a Garnier chair. I'm gonna slap you. All right. Tight curl.
Tight girl. I love a tight curl.
Love a tight cur. All right. For diffuse drying, I used magispell leave in conditioner enhanced curl cream so that we can control it. I wrapped it as you saw on the white rod. We rolled it away. Look at it. Looks so good. You're just freeze drying your hair. You want to start with high heat, high speed for like five minutes, and then switch it to low heat, low speed until it's all the way dry, and then you shake it out. Mermaid tears. All right, so he is crispy. This is not the vibe, but this is good. This is how you want it so that it lasts longer and doesn't get frizzy. Mermaid tears. Illuminating salt spray. Do a couple spritzes of that. You use this stuff, right?
Smells so good.
Just break it up. Yeah, yeah. Let's see. After your first wash, we were gonna cut the top with. We're not sure because he'd be looking sexy.
Same.
This is giving Greek God.
It is. I'm like, literally, it's so.
There's worse things, huh? All right, here you go.
