Ten Commandments for Curl Care

I. After washing your hair, use a good leave-in conditioner to help smooth the cuticle and define each curl.

II. Sleep on a satin pillowcase to reduce dryness and breakage. The satin also helps maintain moisture in your curls.

III. After you shampoo, use a moisturising conditioner at least once a week to make sure your curls stay hydrated and healthy. This will actually help your hair dry quicker.

IV. Instead of a towel, use an old t-shirt to dry your hair. Towels can create a scrubbing effect on your hair, removing product and damaging curls.

V. It is best to air dry your curls as blow drying removes natural moisture from hair. If air drying takes too long for you, use a diffuser attachment and set your dryer on low.

VI. Do not scrunch products into your hair. Evenly coat strands in sections after de-tangling with a wide-tooth comb.

VII. Use your fingers to shape your curls into place. This will help to keep them more defined when you head outdoors.

VIII. Treat each area of curls according to its specific needs. Kinkier sections may need more moisture, while wavier sections may need more curl definition styling.

IX. Misting your hair with a trigger spray bottle of leave-in conditioner is a great and fast way to quickly put some life back into your curls.

X. Always apply conditioners and/or leave-in products on very wet hair then squeeze excess product with an old t-shirt. This ensures an even coat.
