For almost a year and a half I’m restoring my curls, and for this time my departure has changed a lot.
Today I will tell you how I adapted the “curly” method to myself, as well as share a small allowance on how to start caring for curly hair.
Especially for you I’ll make a small manual, a checklist, which helps you not to drown in a ton of information.
And you gradually, week after week during the month, begin restore your waves or curls.

Wash your hair often and use sulfate shampoos.
The first major change – I began to wash my hair often, and returned sulfate shampoos to use, although they themselves I was afraid.
I recently dyed a little, lightened my hair, and now I you need to protect them more and try to save what is left.
That is why now I used Ola Plex. I will not him recommend, advise, because she herself has not yet been convinced effective or not.
It would be dishonest to omit this moment and not mention it, so as I did this care regularly once a week before washing my hair in combined with heating.
The important point is if you want such a thing to try, then know that you must use it before washing.
Now I have three favorite shampoos, and I have them alternate:
- The first is the well-known Avalon Organics c lemon.
- Второй – this мое открытие – Tony&Guy,deep cleansing. It really cleanses deeply and does not overdries hair.
- The third is Med Antiseborrhoeic Shampoo Planta. Since I have oily scalp prone to seborrhea, I wash my head almost every day and try hard rinse skin, roots with massaging movements.
A small life hack for those who have to wash their hair shampoo that dries hair.
Take any conditioner or mask that you do not mind in in my case these are Garnier Fructis masks, and apply on the length and tips before using shampoo.
This technique will help protect the hair shaft from overdrying, while the scalp will be perfectly washed.
Now I thoroughly wash off the shampoo and begin to moisturize my hair.
My favorite air conditioner is also 3:
- DevaCurl Original.
- Firming Petal Fresh.
- And my new love is coconut conditioner from Palmer’s.
First I put a bunch of conditioner on my hair and slowly, gently proceed to combing. I used to do it only with your fingers.
I’m using a Tangle Teezer comb right now – it’s really more convenient, faster. They even have special combs with a handle for combing in the shower.
I highly recommend you try. This speeds up the washing process and drying twice.
When the hair is untangled, I start to add a little bit of water and to seek the state of such algae or pasta? – этоan indicator that the hair is well hydrated.
This is my main procedure, which practically does not change.
As for styling, here I am experimenting, trying different product combinations: sometimes I put one, sometimes a combination.
In general, I’m experimenting. From indelible conditioners I’ve been a year I use Shea Moisture.
I also really like the super cream Deva Curl.
I apply stroking and combing movements on the super wet hair and begin to wrinkle them from the bottom to the roots, slightly squeezing water.
Which gel to use for curly hair?
Most often I use green from Shea Moisture or Deva Arc Angel I must say that for the winter now I will look for something another because these two are not doing very well.
I rub the gel in my palms and apply with a gentle coating movements.
Then I also start to change from below, but I make it pulsating movements, so that the curls are better formed.
Now you need to squeeze out the excess water. I use my two layer a silk towel. After I tried silk, I no longer I use T-shirts or microfiber.
Silk most carefully dries and does not injure flakes, and it’s very absorb excess water well.
Now I either dry my hair naturally, which is usually It takes three or four hours, or I use a hairdryer with a diffuser.
I have an old hair dryer, it’s not very powerful, so all drying, to Unfortunately, it takes about half an hour. This, of course, is very long.
But drying with a diffuser has a big, big plus – hair getting much more voluminous than when dried naturally by way.
At night, I use a laser comb every day to restore hair density.
My trichologist said that my progress is not the limit, therefore I believe that the hair will become even thicker.
Then I tie a small bunch or soft pineapple and sleep.
Since I wash my head almost every day, the need is to restore styling, do refresh, I do not.
If I’m still lazy, or I don’t have time to wash my hair, I’m just I spray some water and form curls with washing movements, or just tying my favorite hairstyle – it’s a high tail.
In addition to Ola Plex, once a week I do peeling of the scalp and deep hydration.
Peeling tried only one – this is DSD Deluxe 1.3. I immediately approached. For almost half a year we have been inseparable.
If you have plaque on your scalp, or you do not rinse the skin sufficiently, as use very soft shampoo, then you sometimes need to thoroughly clean the scalp working staff.
As for the masks, I really like the Giovanni Reconstructor mask and also a gray pair from Deva Melt Into Moisture and Deep See Repair.
They can be mixed and get the effect and hydration, and strengthening.
I combine any mask with heat if the packaging does not say that it is impossible to heat.
A warm hat keeps warm for about 20-30 minutes and allows me be mobile, go about your business while deep moisturizing.
If you don’t have a warm hat, you can try heating hair dryer.
That’s all my departure. I understand that at first it all seems very confusing and you don’t know where to start, to what to approach.
I hope my checklist helps you figure it out. To be honest, I I would be glad if a year and a half ago someone told me that and how to do it.
Now I can say that the daily routine is brought to automatism, and everything is already much simpler and faster. I’m very happy with your hair.
See you soon friends!
