Conditioner To Wide Tooth Comb, Tips To Manage Your Curls In Summer – News18

Curly hair is notoriously bad when it comes to styling or managing them. Often people with curly hair have to spend a lot on several products and go through trial and error to find a haircare routine that works for them. Every season brings a new challenge for curly hair.

In summer the exposure to the sun’s UVA and UVB rays can damage hair and make them dry and brittle. The scalp also gets sweaty which weighs down the hair. Actors like Sanya Malhotra and Mithila Palkar have shown how gorgeous well-styled curly hair can look. If you are on the lookout for styling your curly locks then here are some helpful tips.

1. Use Gentle ShampooOne can never go wrong with a gentle shampoo. People with curly hair should prefer gentle shampoo as it does not strip the scalp of much-needed moisture and oil. Experts suggest that sulfate-free shampoos are best for curly hair. It also prevents scalp infections and strengthens hair. People with curly hair should wash their hair every three to seven days. They should also double cleanse their hair after a busy day out.
2. Use ConditionerConditioner is a must for people with curly hair. One can pick from a range of conditioners, be it regular in-shower conditioners or leave-in conditioners. By sealing in moisture in curly hair, the frizziness is controlled. The deep-conditioned hair is also immune to humidity.
3. Use Wide Tooth CombCurly hair people should swear by a tooth comb. Experts suggest that one should start brushing curly hair from the roots and then go upwards. The scalp should be tackled last when it comes to combining and brushing. This prevents hair breakage and makes the detangling process much easier. The first step in detangling curly hair should always be detangling it with your hands. Use a wide toothcomb brush next and if need be then use a regular brush. These steps are needed as curly hair gets more tangled than other types of hair.
4. Indulge In Night Hair Care RoutineDo not underestimate a night hair care routine. Simple steps like covering your curls in a satin or silk scarf or using special silk pillowcases that avoid friction go a long way. Additionally, one can put a tiny quantity of hair oil on the hair overnight. Once in a while, you can also use an overnight hair mask.
5. StyleTo style your curly hair, make sure to invest in high-quality mousse or hair gel. Do not use products that have high fragrance content. Use paraben-free and silicone-free hair products. One can also use rice water to set the hair and give it a shine if possible ditch heat-based styling tools and go for heatless styling tools like a roller.
