Curly Hair Hacks

1. Know Your Curl Type

Different patterns and types of curls require different styling and maintenance routines. If you’re not sure which type you have, there’s a quiz for that!

Trivia: These curl classifications were defined by Andre Walker (of Andre Walker Hair and The Gold System), the Emmy-award winning stylist for Oprah!

3. Trade your Towel for a T-Shirt

Drying your hair with a T-Shirt will greatly reduce frizz and breakage after washing. Since shirts aren’t as absorbent, gently squeeze your hair out before drying but never twist it.

4. Less is More

For curly girls, it’s not as important which product you use as how much. The right amount of product is probably less than you think. Check out this handy guide for more info.

Pro tip: Always apply product when hair is T-shirt dried but still mostly wet.

5. Start from the Bottom

When you’re washing your hair, condition starting at the bottom of your hair and move up. Same goes for combing.
