"This is our model with the one inch bounce and I wanted to demonstrate this because it is the hardest hair to get curly and you can see when it is wet if your hair is kind of doing this when it is wet then that tells you right away that you have natural curly hair. Because her hair is so fine and it is not super curly it will get pulled out really quickly so you want to avoid running your hands through your hair or a brush through your hair after you have styled it curly because it will frizz and it will look messy and unkempt. First off we have shampooed her hair. We are going to add some conditioner to her hair and we are going to leave a little bit of it in. I use a damage remedy conditioner, probably about the size of a dime. Everything you can do, you see that I do not have a brush or a styling comb in my hand and everything that is done with your hands, if you add a brush or a comb to it while you are trying to style it you are really going to be pulling the curl out and not utilizing the natural curl in it."
