Curly hair with its unique and distinctive shape is characterized by strength and thick volume, but it is more prone to dryness and breakage, as well as more prone to tangling and fizziness, which makes caring for it a challenge.
Curly hair needs special attention and care to maintain its luster.
If your hair is curly and you find it difficult to care for it, here are some tips that will help you.
- When washing your hair, use cold or lukewarm water.
- It is recommended to use a conditioner or moisturizer before shampooing to help reduce tangling.
- Avoid washing your hair with shampoo daily because this causes it to break. If you want to wash your hair daily, use shampoo twice a week, and on the rest of the days, wash your hair with conditioner or moisturizer only.
- Avoid drying your hair with a regular towel and instead use microfiber towels or any regular cotton piece.
- Avoid combing your hair frequently, and when combing it, do so while it is slightly wet before it dries using wide-toothed combs.
- Moisturize your hair using moisturizers and warm oil baths such as coconut oil and argan oil.
- Use hair care products that maintain the moisture of your hair and protect it from dryness such as products that contain aloe vera gel – argan oil – keratin – shea butter.
- Protect your curly hair when you sleep by using a satin pillowcase.
- Trim the ends of your hair regularly to maintain its health and vitality.
- Reduce the use of heat styling products as much as possible because they cause split ends and breakage.
By following these tips for taking care of curly hair, you will get healthy and vibrant hair that reflects your unique beauty.
