How To Style Curls That Fall Flat

Skip the comb and brush:

Instead of using a tool to detangle your curls, use only your fingers. This allows you to carefully work through every knot and tangle individually without causing damage.

Don’t use protective styles:

While this can be tricky, especially during colder months, give your curls a break from a protective style this week. Allow your curls to be free, and make sure you’re regularly hydrating. This will give your scalp and strands a break from the pulling of a protective style.

Trade out your shampoo:

If you’re feeling like you need to cleanse your curls during this time, trade out your shampoo for a cowash. Cowash will cleanse your curls in a gentle way without stripping out natural oils.

Treat your curls to silk:

If you’re still resting your curls on a cotton pillowcase, treat yourself to a new silk or satin one. There are a lot of affordable options, and it’s totally worth the expense. Silk or satin allows curls to slip across the surface without drawing out moisture.

The Easiest Ways To Care For Your Curls During The Winter

Deep condition:

During this week, you should definitely be treating your curls to a luxurious deep conditioning treatment. Cover your freshly washed curls with a moisturizing deep conditioner. Cover your curls with a plastic shower cap, and apply heat to allow the product to deeply penetrate the strands. Rinse with cool water to smooth back down the cuticle and lock in moisture.

Scalp massages:

Is there any better treat than a scalp massage? We don’t think so! Therefore, we’re going to recommend you give yourself a couple scalp massages during this week. This will break up any dandruff or build up that might’ve accumulated on your scalp, and increase blood flow. This means your curls will grow faster and be stronger.
