Hairstyle Curly Hair

There are two types of curly hair

1.Naturally curly

2.Permed (chemically curled)

There are many different ways of perming. From tight curls to just slightly wavy, how about spirals, tin foiled, demi waves root perms, rod perms of different sizes which all give different effects.

Natural curls come in many different forms from tight curls through loose curls to hair with just a few kinks in.

All give totally different looks and can be various lengths, also they can all be styled in different ways too, using grips, slides, headbands and tying long hair up.

OK your hair has great natural body, but has that frizzy look, tends to be dull or unruly.

To maximize your hair's potential, choose a layered look (long or short) that cuts shape into curly hair.

Try hair shiners, pomades, surface conditioners, and soft fixatives to boost hair's shine and relax too much curl.

For very coarse, curly hair (like that of many African Americans), chemical re-texturizing via coloring or relaxing is a good choice, giving hair a smoother and more manageable feeling.

Deep, heat-activated conditioners are also important for curly hair, which sometimes has a tendency towards breakage.

DEALING WITH CURLY HAIR

The only thing holding curly hair back from being fashionable is that so many people lack the knowledge necessary to make their curls look fabulous.

• The first commandment on the path to fabulous curls is: never brush your hair. If you use a brush, you are forcing frizz, the extreme force needed will ydamage hair.
• Instead of brushing your hair, comb through conditioner in the shower with a wide toothed comb, and use a detangling spray.
• If you are using a shampoo for normal hair, you're not doing yourself any favours. Try Pantene’s for curls
• Whenever you wash your hair a cream leave-in conditioner is ideal as it keeps curls moisturised all day.
• Put bluntly, if you want nice curls, you need to use styling products. It's always easier to style your hair after it has been washed, as products are absorbed more effectively by damp hair.
• Firstly, mousse used lightly all over will act as a base. Secondly it is necessary to use a medium to strong hold gel to keep curls in place. A lightweight hairspray will work wonders to keep frizz tamed all day.
