Curly hair is notoriously difficult to manage. In fact, managing curly hair can be a unique challenge, but with the right approach, you can keep those curls looking fabulous.
Spiral Dilemma
Choose hydrating shampoos and conditioners to ensure that your hair is not dry. Keeping the health of your curly hair requires the essentiality of hydration. Alternatively, choose an air-drying or low setting on your diffuser to maintain the natural nature of your coils.
“While detangling, you should be delicate when using a wide-tooth comb to handle your curls. Starting at the ends and ending up in the centre to avoid undue breakages. To create your natural curl pattern, favour products with special curly hair formulations, leave-in conditioners, curl creams, and gels that will help you to intensify your natural curl pattern. Before sleeping, try the pineapple method by pulling the hair lightly into a high ponytail. Regular deep conditioning treatment helps to make them manageable, reduce frizz, and control shrinkage. Get regular trims to prevent the onset of split ends as well as maintain the shape of your curls,” says Ganesh Kamath, Co-Founder, Earthraga.
Curl Care
You should consider protective styles such as braids or twists that reduce the amount of daily manipulation and help protect your curls from any damage caused by environmental factors. By investing in a silk or satin pillowcase, you can reduce the level of friction, and in doing so, minimizing frizz while sleeping. Resist tousling your curls too often because this can alter the curl pattern and cause frizz.
