Secret to perfect curls
There is no secret to great curls! Stop fighting your curls. Listen to your curls. Feel them. Fall in love with them. Your curls are only just a little bit of what makes you, YOU! You are so much more than just a curly haired-lady! The thing about curls is there is no one method. There isn’t a golden product that solves all curly girls problems. Everyone’s hair is different. Everyone type of curl needs different things. Just because one method doesn’t work for you doesn’t mean another won’t. Don’t give up! Even when you want to cut all of your curls off. Keep pushing through bad hair days and frizzy hair months. I promise when you find what works for you, it’ll all be worth it in the end!
If you don’t know even where to start, here is a method that can put your “PERFECT CURLS” in the right directions!
L.O.C method-
It is a method in which you layer products to ensure enough moisture to help combat frizz.
L - LEAVE-IN CONDITIONER
Start with a leave in conditioner. If you have really thick hair apply and comb through in the shower. Finer hair towel dry and comb through.
O - OIL
The use of oil keeps the hair moisturized and soft. If you go more than a few days in between washes reapply to dry hair mostly scrunching in at the ends. For finer hair focus the oil on the ends. For thicker hair mids to ends of the hair.
C - CURL CREAM OR GEL
Curl creams use technology to encourage curl as you apply. Make sure it has no sulfates or parabens. Thicker textures work really well using a curl cream, but not limited to only curls creams. If you chose to use a gel, DON’T BE SCARED! Gel has come a long way from VO5. Curl gels are great for maintaining a longer style out. They control the frizz and helps hold the curls in place. If you are crunchy when your hair dries, just take the oil you have on hand and scrunch it into to your curls. It will break up the product cast and soften that crunch. All the crunch is the product sitting on the outside of the hair once you loosen it up, the crunch is gone!
Curls can be a uphill battle! Especially if you are transitioning to curly hair. With patience and the willingness to try new things YOUR idea of PERFECT CURLS is achievable!
