Hair Care for Curly Hair

Knowing how to take care of curly hair is imperative for its polished look. Curly hair becomes frizzy and can look flat. Learning about suitable hair care products makes having voluminous, curly hair simple. Proper styling products and tools also are required in order to achieve perfect, curly hair. Does this Spark an idea?
 

  1. Shampooing

    • Choosing a curl-enhancing shampoo helps provide the hair and its roots the proper vitamins needed to leave hair looking full of volume. For those with curly hair, it's important to only wash no more than twice a week. Washing more often strips hair of its natural oils and can leave hair looking dry and flat. Every time you shampoo, a conditioner should be used in order to remoisturize your hair. A leave-in conditioner also helps prevent frizz and gives hair a natural-looking shine.

    Brushes

    • Avoid narrow-toothed combs and brushes if you have curly hair. They can create more frizz by separating the hair too much and causing more volume than one with naturally-curly hair needs. A wide-toothed comb is the best option to help prevent frizz and breakage.

    Detangling

    • Detangling is an especially important process for those with curly hair. Start in the shower when your hair is freshly moist and conditioned, and begin untangling your hair with your fingers. Continue the process with a wide-toothed comb from the ends to the roots (in that order). After detangling, rinse your hair once more. And remember: don't detangle with dry hair as it attracts a frizzy look.

    Blow-drying

    • For those with curly hair, using a blow-dryer is not suggested. Letting hair air dry helps to reduce the look of frizz. Additionally, brushing your hair while wet can create breakage. Blot it with a towel---do not rub---if your hair needs to be dried faster than the air will permit.

    Styling

    • Use products that include moisturizing ingredients to prevent frizz. Applying a mousse while the hair is wet can help maintain a healthy-looking curl. A shine serum is a great finishing product for those with curly hair. The serum leaves a naturally-looking shine, completing your look.
