THE 5 BEST WAYS TO TAKE CARE OF CURLY HAIR

• Combs – Using a wide tooth comb will pull less on your curls giving you an easy time when detangling your hair. Excess pulling can cause breakage.

• Deep conditioner – Deep conditioning is essential to curly hair as it is more porous and requires more moisture to keep curls nice and healthy. Doing this once a week with a hair mask like FUL’S Intense Moisture Hair Mask will ensure your hair stays hydrated.

• Excess washing – Try not to wash your hair too often. Excess washing can cause your hair distress as you are constantly taking away the natural oils that lie within the scalp. With curly hair already lacking moisture, you want to ensure that you are not stripping the hair even more. Try to wash your hair with sulphate free shampoo!

• Leave in conditioner – When diffusing your hair or leaving your hair to dry, it is recommended to put in a curl cream or a moose before drying. This will lock the products into your hair creating beautiful, defined curls and will help to reduce frizz.

• Protect your hair during sleep – Moving from side to side as you sleep creates frizz. Make sure to buy either a silk bonnet or a silk pillow case as silk minimises friction thus helping to reduce frizz.
