How to Handle Curly Hair

Things You'll Need:

Curly hair shampoo and conditioner
Silk solution, silk creme, or silk serum
Curl spray

Step 1
Use curly hair products! During the last few years, quite a few great product lines have designed and formulated shampoos, conditioners, solutions and much more for curly hair. These products really help! Curls need different care. Curls need frizz control, as well as moisture control. Too much humidity in the air, oh no! Air too dry, even worse! Winters and summers take their toll on curls. Curls need a bit of babying, especially as we age.

Even those that color and highlight still benefit more from curly hair products, than from color or dry hair products.

Step 2
Do not brush your hair often. Let your hair air dry as often as possible. Use finger brushing instead. Just run your fingers through your hair! You will be surprised what a difference it makes!

Step 3
Add a little silk solution to your hair after washing and conditioning, for extra softness. Use curl spray if you want more bounce and scrunge your curls!

Tips & Warnings:

Silk comes in several forms: Solution, serum, elixir, or creme. All forms are good. It's your choice! They are not the cheapest product, but very important to healthy curls.
For the really curly look, use curl booster and curl amplifier.
For the wet look, use a thick gel and apply it onto wet hair.
Do not apply too much silk. A little goes a long way. A dime sized amount should be plenty.
