Comfy with curly

Having bouncy, curly hair is definitely a blessing but boy oh boy, it can be an utter disaster if you're going through a bad hair day. To twirl your curls in the air is a dream come true and you can have it only when you know the tricks to getting your big hair pride switch on! 

ARE YOU COMB-CONSCIOUS? 

Combs and brushes are never your best friends when you have curly hair. However, combing from time to time is necessary. It is advised to not buy brushes or plastic combs as they contribute to frizzing. Using a wooden wide toothed comb or a de-tangler brush is always a good option. You can shop for wooden combs and brushes from Mustafa Mart, Banglashoppers and The BodyShop. 

CO-WASHING IS A MUST! 

It's not always a good idea to shampoo your hair daily as it takes away the natural oils from your scalp. What you can do is use the method of co-washing. It is a process where you wash your hair with conditioner. It will keep your hair fresh and you will not have to calculate the days for shampooing in a week. However, you must make sure not to apply conditioner to the scalp. 

TRADE YOUR TOWEL AND PILLOW

Drying your hair with a towel and sleeping under a cotton pillow might not be the best for your hair if you want a frizz-free morning or natural after-shower curls. Drying your hair with a T-shirt will not absorb the moisture from your hair and hence your curls will be well locked with moisture and natural oils.  Satin pillow cases will help protect your hair from breaking unlike cotton pillows. However, if you don't want to switch to satin pillows, you can always DIY a satin hair-mask! 

SERUM-ICALLY READY 

Anti-frizz serums are products that will help control your frizz and make your hair feel more smooth and manageable. By sealing the openings of the hair cuticle, no unwanted moisture or humidity will enter, so you get a frizz-free look. You can get your preferred hair serums from any online shop but before buying one, you must look into the criteria you want it to fulfil. 

ALL ABOUT OILS 

Essential oils, coconut and Argan oils are specifically very helpful for curly hair types. You must pamper yourself with a hair mask or a hot oil treatment once or twice a week. It will not only help you grow your hair, but it will nourish the strands effectively. After all, who would not like to twist their smooth curls from time to time? 

One out of every five women with curly hair consider re-bonding their hair simply because they give up on caring for their curls. However, as much as having a straight hair is a personal and individualistic choice, at some point of your life, you will have to love your curls and give up on the straightener because once you realise what a beauty you are with those curls, you are never going back to having second thoughts. 

So, try to nourish, trim and air-dry your hair as much as possible and let your curls loose because you need to crush on your curls more than you crush on your crush!
