All girls have a hard time managing their natural curls and usually end up straightening them until they are very weak. There are many other things you can try to do with your curly hair before you decide to cut it or use heat to flatten it.
Steps
Step 1. If you want more manageable curly hair, don't comb it
It might seem like the opposite of what you should do to get rid of frizz, but it really works. When you comb natural curls, you essentially open the curls and make them single hair. If you take a shower and then let your hair dry without combing it, the curls will stay firm and be less frizzy.
Step 2. Curly hair does not have keratin, which is the "ingredient" in straight hair that keeps it frizz-free and straight
To help reduce frizz and make your hair shinier, look for a pair of shampoo and conditioner that is suitable for curly hair. Check the label and make sure that keratin is one of the main ingredients.
Step 3. One way to truly enhance the curl is to scale the hair
If the curls are all the same length, they get weighted down, the top stays flat while the bottom spreads out in all directions. You don't have to scale your hair excessively, but the longer it is, the more layers it is better to do.
Step 4. Sometimes, to help natural curls, it is a good idea to use a curling iron to "fix" some strands
If there are curls that do not follow the same direction as the others, take out the curling iron and fix them. But keep in mind that heat is very bad for curly hair and you should always use a heat shield.
Step 5. If you want more defined curls, try using some gel or mousse
When your hair is damp, put a little gel or mousse in the palm of your hand and then bend the ends of your hair, using all the product little by little. Don't forget to buy a gel or mousse that won't harden when dry. Some mousses and gels become hard and dry when drying, which gives the hair a fake and unsightly appearance, and over time it flakes off.
Advice
- To eliminate frizz, leaving the conditioner on the hair is perfect.
- Try to keep your hair 100% natural. If you leave them free to do as they want for a while, they will find their natural shape.
Warnings
- Do not use hair products with a lot of silicone.
- Don't use heat! Tools that use heat such as curling irons and straighteners ruin the hair. In case use thermo protective products.
