Best hair care for curly hair.
I liked the sound of that and I’ve been thinking about the idea of writing
something related to it. Now that I no longer have curly hair, it’s even the best
time to write about this topic. This is because I had to cut off the curled
part because I wasn’t able to take care of it well.

In this post, I’m
specifically referring to everyone who has availed of salon services to create
a curly hairstyle in order to prolong its life. The 80’s is still “in” even for
2013, so this type of hair is ideal most especially the soft waves that are away
from the roots but close to the tips.
So here are a few reminders
for everyone who still has that chic wavy hairstyle or is planning to sport one
soon despite the summer heat.
1. Invest on reliable
services. Borrowing that line from a tattoo shop I availed services from twice
already, “cheap tattoo is not good and good tattoo is not cheap,” the same
applies to hair services. Just because it’s affordable doesn’t mean it’s ugly
but similarly, not because it’s expensive doesn’t connote good taste. So use
your research skills and ask around for the best salon in town. But in case
it’s quite heavy on the budget, invest a little when it comes to pampering
yourself.
2. Buy accompanying
products. The only item I was recommended to purchase was a mousse. You can buy
one through a Watsons store (via any SM mall) if you’re looking for a salon
grade version that isn’t too costly. The mousse will be applied when your hair
is about to dry so you can easily twist it into a shape you want. There’s only
one shape anyway and that is the Rapunzel type of twirl or you can also part
your hair in half for twin twirls.
3. Use a comb with wide
bristles. Keep your hair brush away for now while your hair is still curly as
they’re mortal enemies. ;) Kidding.
4. Never comb the curly
part. This is related to the previous suggestion. Just comb the hair right
above where the curl starts. If you need to untangle tangled curls, use your
fingers instead and be a part of the no comb revolution as that local shampoo commercial
says.
5. Easy on the conditioner,
most especially right after the session. After all, your hair was treated and
conditioner will wash off the treatment so condition your curled hair
sparingly.
The rest of the hair care
ideas are just about common and applicable to any type of hair including straight.
These include minimizing the application of anything potentially damaging like
hair spray, hair coat, oil, gel, and so on. It also includes avoiding excessive
exposure under the sun which is also applicable for skin care.
So may these tips on the best hair care for curly hair ideas
help prolong your curled and fabulous hairstyle!
