Curly Hair Care Simplified: Everything You Need to Know
Let’s face it—caring for curly hair can feel like learning a whole new language.
But once you understand what your curls truly need, everything clicks into place.
This isn’t about piling on products or following complicated routines. It’s about using the right formulas in the right way for your specific hair type. And most importantly, keeping things simple, intentional, and effective.
1. Understand What Your Hair Type Craves
Textured hair comes in many forms—waves, spirals, coils. Each one has different needs:
-
Wavy Hair requires light moisture and a defined hold. Heavy products weigh it down.
-
Curly Hair thrives on hydration paired with strong styling support.
-
Coily Hair demands deep moisture and gentle cleansing to prevent breakage.
-
Straight Hair might need less moisture but still benefits from lightweight care and scalp health.
Matching your routine to your hair type is the first step to effortless hair days.
2. Post-Cleansing Starts with the Right Cleanser
Healthy curls begin with a clean, balanced scalp. Choose your cleanser based on your hair’s needs:
-
Clarifying Shampoo – Use once or twice a month to remove buildup from products, sweat, or pollution. A must for scalp resets.
-
Moisturising Shampoo – Use regularly to cleanse without stripping moisture. Infused with baobab protein and seaweed extract to strengthen and soften.
-
Co-Wash – Ideal for curly, coily, and coarse hair textures. Gently cleanses without foam, retaining your natural oils for better hydration.
3. Condition the Right Way
Follow up your cleanser with a solid conditioning step:
-
Use the Multipurpose Conditioner for daily or light hydration.
-
For deeper nourishment, especially for curly and coily textures, go for Ultimate Moisture Therapy or Ultimate Bond Repair Therapy.
Need an extra boost? The Multipurpose Hair Oil works wonders as a pre-wash or leave-on serum for strengthening and shine.
4. Style Based on Texture – Always on Wet Hair
This is where the magic happens—but only if you apply your products on wet hair to lock in moisture and reduce frizz. Stick to this sequence:
-
Apply a Leave-In or Curl Cream to prime and hydrate:
-
Leave-In Conditioner – Ideal for fine curls or lighter textures.
-
Curl Cream – Best for coarse, curly, or coily hair needing more definition.
-
-
Follow with a Gel to set and define:
-
Volume Gel – Great for natural bounce and movement.
-
Hard Hold Gel – Perfect for long-lasting styles and frizz control.
-
-
Optional: Add a mousse for extra hold and volume.
Post-styling tools like the Towel Bonnet and Scrunching Gloves help speed up drying and enhance definition while minimizing frizz.
5. Protect Your Hair Overnight
Don’t let your pillow undo your progress. Nighttime care is non-negotiable if you want your curls to stay healthy, defined, and frizz-free. Here’s how to keep your hair protected while you sleep:
-
Pineapple your curls with a Satin Scrunchie to prevent flattening and preserve volume.
-
Lock in moisture by covering your hair with a Satin Bonnet or Headband. Less friction = less breakage.
-
Sleep on a Satin or Silk Pillowcase to reduce tangles, frizz, and overnight moisture loss.
