10 Tips for Maintaining Curly Hair

Curly hair is beautiful, but it requires special care to maintain its health and natural shine. Here are some tips to enhance your curls:

Our advice

1- Choose your shampoo carefully

Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo to avoid drying out your curls, such as those from Klorane. Limit shampooing to 2-3 times a week to avoid stripping away natural oils and damaging them.

2- Moisturize your hair regularly

Curly hair tends to be drier, so it is essential to moisturize it regularly using suitable products like hydrating hair masks. You can also make coconut oil masks by putting on the pure silk nightcap for long-lasting hydration and without staining your pillow.

3- Avoid excessive heat

Limit the use of heated appliances like hair straighteners or curling irons, as heat can damage curls. Air dry your hair or use a diffuser if you use a hair dryer.

4- Use a silk pillowcase

Sleeping on silk helps moisturize your hair. Opt for a silk pillowcase to protect your hair from tangles, excessive friction, and frizz, making it softer, shinier, and more manageable.

5- Delicate styling

When detangling your curly hair, use a wide-tooth comb or just your fingers to avoid breaking the curls. Start by detangling the ends, then gradually work your way up to the roots to avoid knots and minimize breakage.

6- Use suitable products

Choose styling products specifically designed for curly hair, such as mousses or lightweight styling creams. Avoid products containing alcohol, sulfates, parabens, silicones, etc. as they can dry out hair. Apply styling products to damp hair for better distribution and optimal curl definition.

7- Protect your curls at night

To prevent friction and frizz during the night, tie your hair with silk scrunchies in a loose bun or braid. You can also use a silk bonnet.

8- Cut the ends

Split ends can make your curls look dull and damaged. Schedule regular haircuts to remove split ends and keep your curls healthy.

9- A balanced diet

A diet rich in essential nutrients such as protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals is important for the health of your hair. Make sure you eat enough fruits, vegetables, lean proteins and whole grains to promote hair growth and maintain its natural shine.

10- Food supplements

Supplements, such as collagen, can really make a difference in the well-being of your curly hair. Collagen is an essential protein for healthy skin, hair, and nails. It plays a crucial role in strengthening hair follicles and improving hair texture. By incorporating collagen supplements into your daily routine, you’re providing vital support for your hair health from the inside out, in addition to your external care.
