Curly hair: to tame, to care, and to love

Historically in the women’s world we certainly want straight hair to curl, and curly – to straighten. Today, it will be about the second story. How to care for curls to make them look gorgeous? Read about it in our new article.

The root of the problem

Curly hair is porous, that is, the cuticle scales, as a rule, roughly adjacent to each other. Because of this, the hair is loose, often broken and prone to dryness. Moisturizing and nourishment are not enough, all care is required to penetrate the hair structure. Therefore, there are some important rules in choosing cosmetics for wavy and curly hair.

Choosing the right product for curly haircare

With careful care, curly hair, even at home, will become lush, smooth and beautiful. The main thing is to fill the shelf in the bathroom with the right first aid remedies.

Shampoo

Ideally, the bottle with shampoo must be marked “for curly/wavy” hair. If this could not be found, exclude shampoos that promise extra volume from your shopping list. They destroy the very structure of curls: cover the hair with a film, lift the scales of hair and, thus, provoke dehydration. For curly hair shampoo, look for natural oils, plant extracts, ceramides, proteins and keratin.

Hair balm

This is 100% must-have product for curly hair! It will help to close the hair scales (especially if you wash your head with cool water) and will make the curls more docile when styling.

Masks

Most useful – nourishing and restorative, which care for curls along the entire length. This is especially important for curly hair tips that often suffer from excessive dryness and brittleness. It is better to apply masks 2 times a week, and it is advisable to cover head with a hat and a towel for 20-30 minutes – this will increase the efficiency.

Serum

This product usually contains healing components in a concentrated form: only benefit and nothing extra! By affecting the roots of the hair, these components stimulate metabolic processes, accelerate growth, provide the scalp with oxygen and give the curls smoothness and shine. By the way, the effect of serum can be not only moisturizing and healing, but also styling (especially if it is an indelible product).

Spray-conditioner

Ideally – with thermal protection. It will protect the hair from drying out when using a hairdryer or long walks in the open sun. Another plus of the conditioner – it will help to cope with “habit” of hair to be electrified.

Oil

The tips of curly hair can be supplemented with oils such as shea, coconut, almonds, macadamia, jojoba and more.

Regular visits to the salon is an important point in solving the problem of naughty curly haircare. Specialists will tame naughty curls, and you have to maintain the result by yourself at home.
