From naturally fermented rice water shampoo to protecting your curls from the sun, curly hair, with its intricate patterns and unique texture demands special care and attention. endless things go into taking care of your curly locks.
Embracing the natural curls means understanding their needs and providing the nourishment they crave.
Here are our special tips to keep your curls happy. Let us get curly into it!
Hydration Is The Key
The journey of curly hair care begins with hydration. Curly hair tends to be drier due to its structure, which makes it difficult for natural oils to travel down the hair shaft. We suggest using a sulfate-free rice water shampoo with a shampoo brush for effective cleansing and hydration.
Naturally fermented rice water consists of vitamins B, C, and E, which help to strengthen the hair shaft and retain more moisture. The natural and unbothered fermentation process also lowers the pH of rice water, bringing it closer to natural hair pH.
Avocado shampoo and conditioner is also a great choice. In general, we suggest using a thick conditioner that will reach evenly through your hair.
Detangling Without the Drama
We've all been there: the dreaded tangle. But, detangling curly hair doesn't have to be a nightmare if you do it right.
The first rule is always to use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers. Start from the ends of your hair and work your way up to the roots while your hair is wet. We suggest applying a generous amount of conditioner since it provides the necessary slip to help the comb glide through your hair without tugging or pulling.
This method helps to gently loosen knots and minimise the risk of pulling out your hair.
Styling & Slaying
Styling is another crucial aspect; opt for curl creams that define and enhance your curls while providing hold and softness. Oh always remember to avoid products with alcohol, as they can be drying.
Heat styling can be damaging, so it’s best to air-dry your curls If you must use a blow dryer, always use a diffuser attachment to minimise frizz and maintain curl definition.Sleeping Beauties
While using rice water and avocado shampoo is essential, you can protect your curls even in your sleep. We recommend using a satin or silk pillowcase. These soft materials reduce friction, leaving your hair to be frizz-free when you wake up. You can also use a nightcap.Here is a trendy method you might like– the pineapple method. All you need to do is tie your hair up in a loose ponytail, resembling a pineapple. This keeps your curls intact and prevents them from getting flattened overnight.
