1. There can be many difficulties with laying curls. Perhaps that is why most girls with curls stubbornly straighten them. This is not the easiest and most beneficial way for hair. Learning to style curls in their natural style is much more effective. Very often, a consultation with a stylist helps to adopt your hair texture. Come to him with your home styling products - hairdryer, curling iron, diffuser - and ask them to teach how to use them correctly.
2. Make masks no more than once a month. Curls are easily “overloaded” with oils and nutrients, which will create the effect of oily hair. To make the mask work more efficiently, after you wash your hair, dab your hair with a towel, apply the product and comb the hair with a comb with rare teeth. This will help the mask to spread well over all hair.
3. Your care must have a special tool for curls. Curly hair has a porous structure, that is, a large number of scales that form the outer layer of the hair do not fit snugly. Special products “close” these flakes, and the hair looks healthy and shiny. If the hair is not only curly, but also dyed, take a shampoo that does not wash paint and conditioner for curls. If you have already selected a line of shampoo, conditioner and mask suitable for you, try adding an indelible cream or serum made especially for curly hair to your care.
4. For curly hair, a cascade haircut is more suitable . The main problem of such hair is the lack of volume at the roots. It is it that strands of different lengths solve. Elastic small curls are best left the same length.
5. If you came to get a haircut and just want to trim the ends, cutting off no more than a centimeter, explain this to the hairdresser until you are sure that he understands the seriousness of your intention. If you do not first convey this thought to him, there is a great risk that he will cut off more than you want. Curly hair often looks split, unhealthy, and a stylist unfamiliar with the specifics of this type of hair usually wants to cut more than necessary. In addition, dried curly hair looks shorter than wet. And shear them, as a rule, wet. Therefore, you can cut a couple of centimeters, but it will look as if the hairstyle has lost five. If you are not sure about the master, go for the trick - say that you have already cut your hair last month. Just want to cut another half a centimeter to freshen up the ends of your hair.
