my curls just… stopped working

I don’t even know what’s happening anymore 😭

Last month my curls were thriving — shiny, defined, bouncing like they had a life mission.
Now? They look like they’ve clocked out. Not frizzy, not curly… just confused.

I’ve changed nothing. Same products. Same steps.
So either my hair has emotions or Mercury’s retrograde is targeting my scalp specifically.

Here’s my routine:

• Cleanse: Not Your Mother’s Curl Talk shampoo (1–2x a week)
• Conditioner: SheaMoisture Coconut & Hibiscus
• Leave-in: Kinky-Curly Knot Today (raked through soaking wet hair)
• Styler: Camille Rose Curl Maker gel (scrunched in sections)
• Drying: Diffuse on low, then air dry the rest of the way
• Sleep: Bonnet + satin pillowcase (so no excuses there 😩)

I’ve tried clarifying, deep conditioning, using more product, using less product… nothing helps.
My curls are giving “flat, tired, and over it.”

Has anyone else’s hair just randomly stopped cooperating for no reason??
How do you reset your curls when they suddenly forget how to curl??
