I love curly hair. Absolutely adore it. But the problem is, when I curl my hair, the curls are always so tight. How do I fix it? Or is my hair just too layered or short to loosen them? Anything helps! Thank you! <3 ;*

Brush them with a paddle brush starting from the bottom, then apply serum (or moisturizer) and light scrunch to define the waves you just made

You could either use a one inch curling iron to get bigger curls, or you could use the size you do now but use the curling iron like a wand by holding it upside down and not using the clamp. That's what I did and my curls looked like this.

You could just break apart the tight curls and twirl the smaller pieces
