Hair care for curly, wavy hair

Caring for curly hair

Curly and wavy hair is naturally drier and more brittle than straight hair. This is due to the naturally roughened structure of the hair cuticle, which is what creates the curls in the first place. To tame your curls, you should make sure you use the right care. Hair care products specially designed for curly hair contain extra moisture and ensure suppleness and shine. The right care starts with a special Shampoo. It should be mildly cleansing so as not to unnecessarily stress the already porous structure of the hair.

When wet, the hair is particularly sensitive and reacts very irritably to rough rubbing or tugging with the comb. Handle your hair extremely carefully and gently when wet and damp. If you have curly hair, you should use a Conditioner. This infuses conditioning agents into the hair and then seals it. A Leave-In-Conditioner is also suitable for curly hair, as this product remains in the hair and ensures optimal combability. This makes it easier to define and shape curls later on. The right hairbrush also makes it easier to gently detangle curly hair. The Tangle Teezer has proven particularly effective for curly and unruly hair.

Once a week, you should treat your hair to a rich Hair mask that nourishes and rebuilds the hair from the inside out. Natural products with moisturizing aloe vera, rich jojoba or Argan oil and shea butter provide optimal care for curly hair. It is virtually impossible to "over-care" for curly hair. Curly hair is always hungry for care and nutrients.

Styling products specifically for curly hair provide volume, elasticity and bounce to curls. These provide hold and shape to the hairstyle and give an extra portion of shine. Also Hair oil makes curly hair supple and gives it shiny highlights.

You can simply air-dry very curly hair and pluck it into shape when dry. You can achieve defined curls with Hot rollers or Curling irons. For wavy hair, blow-drying with a diffuser is ideal for creating great volume. Mousse ensure that the desired hairstyle stays in shape throughout the day and does not fall apart after a short time.
