Curly Qs, this one’s for you! For some of you with naturally curly hair, getting those curls to perfection has become a learning process and you finally feel like you’ve gotten to an expert level. You feel comfortable with your hair and you’re happy! For the rest of you, the process has been a long and hard battle. Who knew dealing with your hair could feel like an episode of Game of Thrones? Well, it’s time to win that battle, ladies. Today I’ve got some some step by step tips to get those curls beautifully defined. Read on!
- Start off by washing and conditioning your hair in the shower with some gentle products that have good, healthy ingredients.
- Be sure to rinse out your hair with cold water. This helps to seal the cuticles while also preventing frizz and adding shine at the same time.
- Use an old t-shirt instead of a towel to absorb the excess water from your hair once you’re out of the shower. Doing this produces less fizz.
- Gently brush your hair with a wide-toothed comb.
- Use a leave-in conditioner to get your hair extra smooth.
- Apply a light gel or serum to help prevent frizz. Make sure you distribute this product evenly.
- Use a gel or a mousse to keep your hair in place. Apply it by scrunching or twirling your hair as a means of styling.
- Let your hair absorb all the products before going in with your t-shirt one last time to absorb any excess water from your hair.
- Air drying hair is best if you want frizz- free hair so don’t touch it until it’s completely dry.
Pro tip: Sleep on a silk pillow case in order to prevent frizzy hair.
Remember, not all curls are the same so these tips might not work on everyone. Keep that in mind the next time you try a new hair treatment.
