Most people associate curly hair with frizz or unruliness. However, luscious curls that look natural yet chic can be created with proper technique and products. Men with straight, wavy, or curly hair can all take advantage of these styling tips.
1. Deep Cleansing
Even when using only natural products, curls may still become weighed down by product build-up or residue from styling products used on them. Therefore, your hair must be regularly clarified.
2. Moisturize Your Hair
If your natural hair is experiencing dryness, consider switching to a curly hair shampoo and conditioner tailored explicitly for curly tresses to add more moisture and keep your locks hydrated.
3. Avoid Blow Drying
Blow-drying your hair can wreak havoc on its cuticle, which is especially dangerous for curly locks. Instead, use products specifically formulated for curly locks and a diffuser attachment on low heat for best results.
4. Use the Right Styling Products
Curly hair requires extra special care to remain hydrated and frizz-free. Use products specifically crafted to deal with curls, such as shea butter, avocado oil, argan oil, and hyaluronic acid.
5. Don’t Overdo it
Recognize the individual texture of your curls and treat them accordingly. If you want to give your straight locks some waves, try washing them with moisturizing shampoo and conditioner while it’s wet, then gently tousle them into a curlier texture using a wide-toothed comb.
