How to make my hair curly naturally?

How can i make my hair look like its naturally curly?

• I want my hair to look like it is naturally curly but it is pretty much naturally wavy and I don't like it. I don't want to get a perm or anything like that to damage my hair, I don't want to use a curling iron or fat iron either, I just want it to look naturally curly!

• Answer:

  First, clarify your hair. I like to use a baking soda wash and a vinegar rinse to do this. It's better than clarifying shampoo but most people are kind of grossed out by the idea, so you can use a clarifying shampoo. I do suggest using a cider vinegar rinse though, google some methods it really does work. THis will make your hair lighter and easier to hold a curl Use a silicone-free conditioner... that's extremely important if you want to hold curls. After you wash your hair, you can wrap your head in a towel in a method called plopping. You part your hair in two sections while it is still dripping wet, put the towel on your head, and twist both parts of your hair into the towel so that it kind of looks like you have two braids, then bring both ends back and clip it. Here's a picture of what I am talking about: http://www.naturallycurly.com/curlreading/curl-products/to-plop-or-not-to-plop If you have wavy hair this will make you look like you have natural curls. Also you can take a curling iron and just curl sections all around your head, then shake them out and spray them with a light, flexible spray. You can use one of those smaller ceramic irons if you want, because those will not damage your hair.
