How to make my hair curly naturally?

How can you make your naturally curly hair curly, but not stiff?

  • I have long, curly/wavy hair. I typically just put gel & hairspray in it and walk out the door. But it gives it that stiff, wet look. How can I still achieve the curliness without it being stiff/wet looking?

  • Answer:

    I use Pantene shampoo and conditioner for curly hair and Pantene leave in conditioner for curly hair.. Using gel and hairspray you likely have a build up of product in your hair mix 1 cup warm water and 1 cup baking soda apply to hair in the shower like a cream rinse.. Let it stay in your hair for 1-2 minutes and rinse well.. It will strip all the product out of the hair without causing any damage... Then shampoo and condition as normal... Curly hair has a tendency to get dry and frizz.. Which leads to the use of products like gel and hairspray to combat the frizz.. Shampoo compounds the dry/frizz cycle by stripping away natural oils.. For a sleaker les frizzy curl try shampooing every other shower you can still condition every shower as it does not strip away oils... So shower 1 shampoo and condition as normal, shower 2 rinse with water then condition <no shampoo step>.. And so on alternating...

If your hair is long and wavy/curly then why the gel and spray? The curliness is natural so that will always be achieved but keeping it in place or not having it get wide or out of hand is another. Condition your hair each time you wash it and buy a spray that will help you manage your look without making it stiff...a light hold spray should do it.

A light serum. A small amount to tame and de-friz. Not a lot or the hair will appear dirty, and weighed down by the product.
