Curls can be quick to loosen, fall out, droop or appear
frizzy.
These problems can be quite easy to eliminate with a few
extra steps.
Second Day Hair
If you do need to shampoo, try to use less shampoo and
conditioner as sometimes these products strip the hair of natural oils needed
to hold a curl.
You can also add some Dry Shampoo or Texture Spray to the
hair for some extra texture.
Cool Down
Although it is time consuming, one of the most effective
tricks on how to get your curls to stay is to let the curl cool down and set.
Take each fresh curl, keeping the curl shape, and secure it
with a duck bill clip or a bobby pin.
Once the curl is cooled down, it will allow the cuticle to
close and set in place, making the curl last for a much longer period of time.
If you don’t have the time to pin and cool the hair, let the
curl sit for 5 minutes and then apply product, comb etc.
Use Hair Products
Apply styling products to your hair will help hold the curls
longer.
Depending what works with your hair, apply curl enhancing mousse
or gel to your hair, or spritz a bit of hairspray before and after curling.
Use the Right Barrel Size
Barrel size is important. It's easy to think that a bigger
barrel will give you those Victoria Secret Curls but it’s a smaller barrel that
really does the magic.
Depending on your hair, try using a 1" or 1.5"
barrel, and see what difference it can make!
Not only will the curls look better, but they will also last
longer.
Hair Still doesn't Curl
If you still have problem keeping the curl, it might be time
for a haircut or at least a trim.
Overly damaged hair with split ends just doesn't curl well….
It's time to give your hair some love and get a trim!
