How To Take Care of Curly Hair
Taking care of curly hair involves some key steps: cleansing, conditioning, moisturizing, and styling. Curly hair tends to be drier and more prone to frizz, so it’s important to use products that add moisture and define curls. Here’s a breakdown of a curly hair routine:
- Cleansing: Start with a good, deep clean. Double cleanse with Cécred’s Clarifying Shampoo and Scalp Scrub to remove product buildup, dirt, and excess oil. Follow with Cécred’s Hydrating Shampoo for added moisture and nourishment.
- Conditioning: Next, use Cécred’s Hydrating Conditioner to instantly hydrate, detangle, and soften your hair, making it easier to style. Focus on the ends where moisture is needed most, let it sit for a couple minutes, and then rinse thoroughly. For drier curls that might need an extra boost, use Cécred’s Moisturizing Deep Conditioner to deeply hydrate and strengthen your curls.
- Moisturizing: After conditioning, apply Cécred’s Moisture Sealing Lotion to damp hair. This product helps lock in moisture, reduce frizz, and enhance curl definition. It provides a light, flexible hold, perfect for maintaining your style throughout the day. For best results, allow your hair to air dry or use a diffuser on a low heat setting to enhance your natural curl pattern without causing frizz. Finish with Cécred’s Nourishing Hair Oil to add shine and seal in moisture.
- Protecting: Protect your curls from damage by sleeping with a satin scarf or bonnet. This reduces friction, preventing breakage and frizz. Also, avoid excessive heat styling and always use a heat protectant if you must use hot tools.
What Should I Do Everyday to My Hair?
Daily hair care doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are some simple steps you can incorporate into your routine:
- Hydrate and Moisturize: Use a couple drops of Cécred’s Nourishing Hair Oil to soften the hair and add a healthy shine.
- Protect: To refresh curls, apply a small amount of Cécred’s Moisture Sealing Lotion to the ends of your hair to prevent split ends, keep your hair hydrated and frizz free. This lightweight product can be applied to damp or dry hair to maintain moisture levels. It’s a concentrated formula, so a little goes a long way!
- Detangle: Gently separate your curls using your fingertips to prevent matting and tangling while keeping your curls defined.
How Many Times a Week Should I Do My Hair Routine?
The frequency of your hair care routine can depend on your hair type and lifestyle. For most people. washing and conditioning your hair 2-3 times a week is sufficient. However, for people with curly hair, it’s essential to find a balance to maintain protein and moisture levels in the hair:
- Washing: Use Cécred’s Hydrating Shampoo 2-3 times a week to cleanse your hair without drying it out.
- Deep Conditioning: Incorporate a deep conditioning treatment every other week with Cécred’s Moisturizing Deep Conditioner to provide deep hydration, and maintain your hair’s health.
What is a Wash and Go Hairstyle?
