Extremely Curly
What good products are out there to tame extremely thick, wavy/curly hair?
I need some help. My hair is EXTREMELY thick, I mean hair bands break on my hair all the time, and my hair is wavy/curly. Are there any products out there that have served you well in making your hair more smooth and manageable? I’ve only found one amazing product – KMS Flat Out balm – but I can’t afford it. Or any tips you use when styling your hair would be appreciated. Thanks
Here are some basic tips for curly hair that you might find helpful:
*Try to find a stylist who knows how to work with curly hair. You can find ratings by region here: http://www.naturallycurly.com/curlsalons
*Don’t shampoo every day.
*Comb conditioner through hair in the shower.
*Never use a brush on dry hair, only untangle when the hair is wet.
*Apply styling products to dripping wet hair. Scrunch or twirl hair to achieve desired shape.
*Use styling products suited for your hair type. Don’t know yours? http://www.naturallycurly.com/hair-types
*Avoid terrycloth towels; use microfiber or t-shirts instead.
*Air dry or use a diffuser with your blowdryer.
*Don’t touch (or brush!) your hair while it’s drying
For specific products for your hair type you’ll want to explore the forums at:
http://www.naturallycurly.com/curltalk/
There you can find others with the same hair type and try out some of their favorite products.
If you want to run out and pick something up locally, I recommend trying LA Looks or Herbal essences gels (drugstore); Biotera gel and cream (Sally’s Beauty Supply); Suave Naturals/vo5 conditioners (really cheap); Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose Condish (semi-cheap but super moisturizing; found at organics/specialty stores); red Cream of Nature shampoo (drugstore again); and L’oreal out of bed weightless texturizer (black tub, use under gel). These are all good things to try, and be sure to tinker around with amounts and how you use any products.
Lastly, it has made my hair so much better since I started the curly girl method! I used to almost never wear it down (it was a frizz/poof ball), but now I have pretty, shiny curls. ~:) It’s pretty radical—no sulfates (shampoo) or silicones—but it’s so great for curly hair.
