Perhaps, at least once in his life, every owner of curly hair dreamed of having straight strands. And this desire is fully justified, at least because it is much easier to care for them. Yes, of course, there are certain difficulties in leaving, but nevertheless, curls can also be put in a perfect hairstyle. The thing is in the correct care procedures, as well as in some styling secrets, thanks to which even the weakest hair will turn into magnificent curls. Creating hairstyles for curly hair even every day is very simple, it’s all about training.
How to prepare curls for styling?
Equally important is the preparation of hair for a future hairstyle. This includes washing, care, and drying. The first thing to do is to review what you use regularly. Shampoos and balms should contain natural lipids, shea butter, karite, macadamia. It is these components that are responsible for covering the hairs with a protective film, which will protect the curls from negative influence from the outside. Thanks to such natural shampoos, curls retain their structure and look neat. But which hairstyles for curly hair are most suitable?
Important points
Stylists recommend paying attention to air conditioners. If with straight hair it is important to be careful and not to overdo it, otherwise they will look oily, then it is practically impossible to overdo it with curly hair. All because they are more prone to dryness, care should be appropriate. This is explained by the fact that curls do not particularly tightly encircle the scalp, as happens with straight hair, therefore, contact with the fat area is limited and often they lack sufficient nutrition. Also, experts note that the head of the owners of curlers has an uneven upper layer, and this is fraught with increased sensitivity of curls to negative influence from the outside. For this reason, basic hair care should be carried out while they are wet. Experts advise to adhere to such rules:
- Blot your hair with a towel and in no case rub it, just gently press the curls until the fabric absorbs water.
- Use the comb only with rare cloves, only this way you can gently untangle the hair.
- If you comb them with a brush, then you can mess up the curls too much, the strands will become fluffy and will look untidy.
These basic rules should be considered in every hair care procedure.
