Full curl stacking tutorial linked on this short.

If you brush style your curls, your brush might be flattening them — even when you're doing everything else right. These are three things I catch clients doing in real time that compress their volume before their hair even dries.

❌ Loading too much hair into the brush at once creates an oversized clump that's too heavy to stack. Pick up smaller individual sections instead — separation is what creates volume, not stringiness.

❌ Letting the hair pile up inside the brush instead of spreading it flat. If it's compressed going in, it drops compressed.

❌ Pinching the hair as it leaves the brush re-clumps everything you just separated. Release without pinching — then check what landed and separate any large clumps with your hands.

These are details most people can't see while they're styling. Once you know what to look for, you can't unsee them. Email me the word GROUP at info@genamarie.co to learn more about my virtual curl coaching program.
