HOW TO START YOUR NATURAL HAIR JOURNEY!

Curls are beautiful, bold, and unique. Being all of these things, they also come with a lot of maintenance and extensive care. Sometimes keeping up with this beautiful gift can get a bit overwhelming- don't let this discourage you! By following these 7 simple tips, the path to embracing your curls will seem a lot closer.

STEP 1: KNOW YOUR HAIR TYPE ✅

The first step to embracing your curls is gaining an understanding for your hair type. Once you know what your hair type is, target products that will work well with your hair.

STEP 2: HYDRATE HAIR 💦

Hydrating hair refers to the act of dampening hair by applying water. In doing so, moisturizing agents will be able to penetrate hair and scalp deeply and more effectively. If this step is forgotten, product build up will result as will dirt accumulation to hair and scalp.

STEP 3: DETERMINE YOUR HAIR POROSITY 👀

Although it is helpful to know your hair type, understanding your hair porosity will ensure the true health and hydration of your hair. 

What is hair porosity? Hair porosity refers to the ability of your hair to keep and retain moisture.

STEP 4: AVOID DETANGLING ON DRY HAIR 🌵

Remember, curls are fragile; brushing or combing your hair while dry will only damage and break it. Instead, use a wide-toothed comb or detangling brush on wet, moisturized hair. This will effectively work through those stubborn knots.

STEP 5: LET THE FRIZZ RUN WILD! 👩🏽‍🦱

Realize that frizz is not your enemy. Don't drown your hair in gel or mousse to tame it. Like all things, everything in moderation. Instead, pick out your curls and own your frizz. If you desire more defined curls/coils, section out your hair and finger curl areas of frizz for best results.

FRIZZ = MORE VOLUME

STEP 6: EXPERIMENT 🔬

Try new styles, products, and drying methods. No two people have the same exact hair types, so what works for one person, may not work for you. Find what suits you best.

STEP 7: GET A HAIRCUT THAT SUITS YOU 🥰

Sometimes a simple hair cut can be the answer to all your headaches. Find a curly hairdresser that will ensure the health and beauty of your curls.
