Basic tips for curly hair, naturally!

What are the right products for curly hair? This type of hair requires special care, both for washing and for styling ... I will give you some examples!

Curly hair requires more care than straight or slightly wavy hair. The hair with fairly strong undulations can be considered as already part of the curly! Maybe even your hair is "curled upside down" ...

The key to beautiful curls: hydration!

Curly hair tend to be heavily dehydrated, much more than other types of hair. And that's normal! The sebum does not go down well along the loop to protect the fiber and thus hold the water longer.

So to hydrate your curly hair, there are several solutions.

Washing: say goodbye to detergent products.

The best method to wash a curly hair is the no-poo. The no-poo is to wash the hair without shampoo, only with the conditioner. You have to choose a conditioner without occlusive ingredients of course! For the no-poo, the brand "Noire Ô Naturel" offers a shampoo cream, with very few washing agents and plenty of nourishing active ingredients. You can also use a conditioner from Crowshed, Unique, Peter Rabbit Organics, Juice Organics, Evolve, Ila, Green Beaver, Urtekram or even Melvita!

Treatments: masks, oil baths, rinsing ...

Here are the treatments specially done for curly hair!

1. Spirulina: this ultra-protein algae is softening, and also has the amazing property of giving an enormous amount of spring to the loops. It can be added in a mask (a henna gloss for example), or even in a bath of oil, in your shampoo, in your conditioner ... It mixes very well with everything.

> Spirulina can be found in an organic store or on line boutiques (in the food supplements department).

2. Coconut milk: used as a mask before using the shampoo, coconut milk also, gives spring to the curls! It can be mixed with other plant milk or ayurvedic powder to give consistency to the mask.

> You can find coconut milk in an organic store, but also in a supermarket, in the "world" department, next to Chinese sauces, or Japanese specialties ...

3. Macadamia nut oil. This oil is remarkable in oil bath, but especially in care without rinsing! A small drop that you heat in your hands, and you apply it on your hair while it's still wet, You can also mix it with aloe vera gel to hydrate at the same time and facilitate the distribution. This oil also strengthens curls and waves.

> You can use any macadamia oil, certified organic, virgin and first cold pressed.

4. Rinsing vinegar and honey. A teaspoon of honey, and 8 large spoons of vinegar (of cider, organic, unpasteurized) in a liter of water ... And it's magic! The sheathing effect of the pectin contained in the

vinegar, combined with the moisturizing side of the honey, gives very good results on the curly hair. I advise you to dilute the honey in the vinegar before adding water.

Styling: The best tips!

Denovo milk cream, wooden combs, leave-in cream Doobaline

Scrunching is simply putting your hair in it natural shape, and helping the curls to form by getting them up with your hands. Keep your head upside down and use your hands to crunch your hair. You can do this by holding a small section of hair. Start crumpling this section of hair up towards your scalp. This action would resemble what you do when you crumple paper and turn them into paper balls.

Applying a leave-in (conditioner without rinsing or moisturizing cream) is an essential tip to have beautiful curls well defined, and without frizz. The best are undoubtedly Denovo Milk Cream, Doobaline leave-in care or even your face moisturizer.
