Curly Hair Tips
Curly hair includes those with 3A-, 3B-, and 3C-type curls and there are a few things to note when working with this texture.
How to Add Volume to Curly Hair
Getting amazing volume for curly hair starts when it is dripping wet. Apply Curly Girl 50 Double Prong Root Lifting Curl Clips (£35) at the roots before drying add some oomph to the roots. "The clip needs to be on [the] scalp to not make an indentation on the curl," says Lebron. "When clipping, lift the hair up, slide the scalp in and release." When the hair is 75-percent dry, take out the clips in the same direction you put them in — very slowly.
How to Preserve Curly Hair
Eladia believes that everyone with curls should own a satin pillowcase, like the Slip Pure Silk Pillowcase (£89), because cotton absorbs all the natural oils and moisture from your hair as you sleep. In addition to the case, to avoid this, you'll want to pineapple your ends every night. To do so, you can use a loose hair tie to pull hair up to the top of the head. Try to get the hair as close to the hairline as possible. In the morning, just it take down and shake.
How to Keep Curly Hair Moisturised
The number one rule of thumb with curls: hydration, hydration, hydration. Curly hair has a tendency to get super dry at the ends. That's because it's nearly impossible for the natural oils at the scalp to make it all the way down the shaft, especially when you're not combing and brushing this hair type. First, spritz the ends with warm water to open up the cuticle. Then, massage in some Oribe Gold Lust Nourishing Hair Oil (£35).
