Hello, all hair lovers! I'm Kashia, your ally in hair care, and today I come with information that you will love. We know that understanding and properly caring for curly hair can be challenging, so here we share with you the complete guide to healthy, beautiful and defined curls.
Introduction:
Curly hair is synonymous with strength and personality, but it also requires special care to maintain its shape and health. From choosing the right products to styling techniques and deep hydration methods, there's a whole world of secrets to achieving defined, hydrated, and frizz-free curls. Do not worry! I'm here to help you create a complete and effective routine that makes your curly hair shine. Discover the ABCs of curls and take them to the next level!
1. Know your curl type
Each type of curl has unique characteristics and specific needs. Understanding the structure and shape of your natural curls will help you choose the products and techniques that best suit your hair. Curls are classified into different types, from soft waves (2A) to defined and tight curls (4C).
Type 2 curls: Wavy hair with light waves that form an "S" shape. Type 2 curls usually require light products that define without weighing them down.
Type 3 curls: More defined curls and in the shape of a marked "S". They need hydration and products that help control frizz without losing definition.
Type 4 curls: Hair with very tight, spiral-shaped or zigzag-shaped curls. This type of hair tends to be drier and more fragile, so it requires intense hydration and high-nutrition products.
2. The importance of a proper routine for curly hair
Curly hair is often drier, as natural oils fail to reach the ends evenly. A proper routine allows you to maintain the hydration and definition of your curls. Here we give you a basic scheme to take care of your curly hair:
Sulfate-free shampooing: Sulfates strip the hair's natural oils, leaving it dry and dull. Opt for a sulfate-free shampoo to cleanse without drying. I recommend Shampoo Argan Hair de Joy, free of sulfates and parabens, which strengthens and restores the natural texture of your curls
Moisturizing conditioner: Choose a suitable conditioner that facilitates detangling, reduces frizz and provides deep hydration. Try Conditioner Argan Hair de Joy. You'll notice the difference from the first use, whether you have natural curls or waves.
Curl definition: After washing and moisturizing your hair, apply a leave-in that helps maintain the shape of your natural curls. Personally, I use Powerfull Plus Curly Reconstructor, a leave-in leave-in that strengthens and repairs the structure of the hair, leaving it soft, manageable and without feeling of weight or grease.
3. Rehabilitative treatment for curly hair
Your routine will not be complete without rehabilitative treatment. Once you try the Mask Argan Oil, you'll love it! This mask composed of argan oil deeply hydrates and nourishes. Repairs damage caused by the sun, sea, pool, heat tools such as dryers and irons, as well as harsh chemicals.
4. Styling techniques for defined curls
Styling curly hair requires techniques that do not break the natural shape of the curl but allow you to maximize its definition. Here are some techniques that will help you achieve perfect curls:
Scrunching: A basic technique that consists of "squeezing" the hair from the ends to the scalp. This helps activate the curl and give it volume without frizz. Ideal for type 2 and 3 curls.
Plopping: After applying your hydration and definition products, place a cotton t-shirt or microfiber towel over your damp hair and wrap it around your head. This technique allows the hair to dry while retaining the shape of the curl. It is perfect for giving volume and definition without frizz.
Finger Coiling: To define tighter curls, take sections of hair and wrap them around your fingers to shape the curls in a defined way. This technique is ideal for type 3C and 4 curls and allows for greater definition, especially in hair with a curlier texture.
5. Extra Care for Healthy Curls
In addition to your daily routine, there are other habits that contribute to keeping your curly hair healthy and with defined curls:
Protect your hair when sleeping: Use a satin or silk pillowcase, or sleep with a satin cap. These materials are soft and friction-free, helping to prevent frizz and maintain curly definition overnight.
Avoid excessive heat use: Heat drying can weaken and dry curly hair. When using the dryer, opt for a diffuser and set it to a low or medium temperature so as not to damage the structure of the natural curl. Don't forget to protect your hair from the heat! Argan Silk The Hair Joy is a leave-in that does not need to be rinsed, works as a heat protectant, is a powerful anti-frizz, reduces static and is exceptional for the maintenance of curly hair.
Deep hydration: Hydration is essential for curly hair. It includes a moisturizing product such as the Argan Infusion Hair The Joy leave-in that also nourishes, repairs, softens and defines the natural curl.
Extra tip! Combine Argan Silk The Hair Joy with Argan Infusion Hair The Joy for amazing results.
