Curly Hair Tips

Anyone who was born with naturally curly hair knows that it can be both a blessing and a curse. Because it essentially grows in a zigzag formation, it takes longer to attain a certain length than it would if it were straight. It is also prone to dryness, and on humid days it seems like there’s nothing you can do to keep it under control! But on the plus side, it’s a look that is highly sought-after and can be absolutely stunning if you know how to style it properly.

First of all, keep in mind that curly hair almost always looks best when it is long, as the length allows for the curls to be properly weighed down. All long hair is beautiful, but long curly hair is nothing short of captivating! The best styles are those cut with layers, because the layers allow your hair to sit correctly and avoid the dreaded ‘pyramid head’.

Secondly, don’t shampoo it every day or you’ll risk drying it out further. Curly hair is usually more brittle than straight or wavy hair, so keeping the natural oils in place is a must. When you do shampoo, use products designed for your hair type, plus a good quality conditioner. We stock several shampoo, conditioners and styling products so pop in and pick my brains.

Every now and then you’ll get the urge to straighten your hair. That’s okay, provided that you’re not doing it every day; if you are then it’s time that you embraced the beauty of your curls.

    Good tips. Especially now during the winter season, curly hair requires moisturizing treatment more regularly and shampoo even less often as we produce less of the natural oils in the cold months.

    Hey! Good concept, but can this actually operate?
