Beauty Products That Level Up My Look

Having curly or wavy hair can be fun but it comes with a learning curve. Over the years I have tried several products looking for the best thing for my hair. For reference, my hair is technically considered wavy - probably a 2A-2C. It is coarse, thick and has quite a bit of gray. The curls / waves change and get tighter or looser based on the weather and humidity. I have tried the “curly girl method” but realized that I needed to break some of the rules for best results.
