CURLY HAIR – HOW TO LOOK AFTER IT?

Curly hair is beautiful and unique, but it needs special care to keep its health and volume. In this post you’ll learn a few tips on caring for and styling curly hair.

Characteristics of curly hair: 

Curly hair has several distinctive features:

• They are naturally curly – curly hair is naturally coiled or wavy, which gives it volume and texture.
• They are dry – because natural oils find it hard to reach the ends of curly hair, it is often dry and prone to frizz.
• They are prone to damage – curly hair is more susceptible to breakage and split ends because of its structure.
• They are difficult to style – because of their natural curl, curly hair requires special attention during styling and care.
• They need appropriate care – curly hair requires special products and care techniques, such as moisturising shampoos and conditioners, masks and hair oils, to stay healthy and beautiful.

Caring for curly hair:

• Use moisturising shampoos and conditioners – curly hair is naturally dry, so it is important to use products that will moisturise it. Choose shampoos and conditioners with added plant oils or glycerine to help lock in moisture.
• Avoid high temperatures – curly hair is more prone to heat damage, so avoid styling with a hairdryer or straightener. If you do need to use a hairdryer, use it on a cool or moderately warm setting.
• Moisturising treatments – regularly use hair masks and oils to help increase moisture and prevent breakage.
• Suitable styling methods – use styling products designed specifically for curly hair, such as creams and mousses, which help define the curls and give the hair volume and shine.
• Be careful when combing – curly hair is more prone to tangling and breaking, so take care when brushing it. Always use a comb or brush with wide teeth to help avoid damaging the hair.
• Don’t wash your hair too often – curly hair doesn’t need frequent washing, because natural oils struggle to reach the ends of curly hair. Washing every 2–3 days is enough to keep hair clean and healthy-looking.

Styling curly hair:

• Dry your hair naturally – avoid drying it with a hairdryer, as high heat can damage the curls. Instead, gently blot the hair with a towel and then let it air dry.
• Use a diffuser – if you need to use a hairdryer, use a diffuser, which helps maintain the curls and provide volume.
• Wrap your hair in rollers – if you want more defined curls, try wrapping wet hair around rollers and leaving it until completely dry.
• Pin your hair up in a bun – if you want a quick and easy style, pin your hair into a bun at the top of your head for an elegant, stylish look.
• Use ends oils – to prevent split ends, use oils for the tips of your hair to help soften and protect them from breakage.
