Products to Help Make Your Curls Look Great! 

 ­­­­­If you have curly hair, chances are your hair tends to be dry, coarse and brittle. It also tends to frizz up, doesn’t it? Here, we show you how to care for your curly hair.

Products You Need to Use Regularly 

Unlike your limp-tressed sisters who should stay away from products that weigh down their hair, you need a few products to keep frizz and dryness in check:

  • Creamy shampoos Creamy shampoos are a better bet than clarifying (or clear) shampoos.
  • Two types of conditioners You simply cannot overcondition frizzy hair. You need a heavy conditioner for use every time you wash your hair, and a deep conditioner for use once a week.
  • Smoothing cream and alcohol-free gel From the minute you step out of the shower, you need to coat the cuticle so it locks out moisture. In the book Confessions of a Beauty Editor, author Linda Wells suggests a one-two-punch: 2 parts cream for 1 part gel (yes, you have to buy the products separately). A walnut-sized amount will do you. Simply rub together then palm the mixture from mid-shaft down. Comb the product throughout all of your hair with a wide-toothed comb.
  • Styling cream Enhance your curls with a cream created for curly hair. Rub it in and let hair airdry.
  • Style serum Warm up a couple drops of this in your hands and palm over dry, frizzy curls. The serum will solve your frizz problems.
  • Straightening balm or gel If you want to blow-dry hair straight, rub a quarter-size amount of this on hair before drying curly hair (always in sections, working from the lower layers on up).
