Below are 4 Tips on Personalizing Your Curly Girl Method.
#1 Define Your Curl Pattern
There are many different types of curl patterns and the Curly Girl Method works for all curl types. First you need to determine if your hair is wavy, curly, or coiled. Knowing your texture will be important, this will help you personalize the treatment accordingly. The curly girl method focuses on avoiding over-shampooing the hair so that your natural oils can moisturize and nourish dry areas. Knowing your hair type gives a better idea of how often you should shampoo.
#2 Pick Your Styling Products
Picking the right products is essential to making sure that the Curly Girl Method is perfect for you! First, you will need to make sure that the conditioner and gel of choice are free of sulfates, parabens, alcohols, and fragrances. Oils are also essential for this styling method. The Voice of Hair PureFix Elixir, is a great choice and is safe and healthy for you to use directly on your scalp and massage in for blood stimulation.
#3 Know How Often to Cleanse Your Hair
How often you cleanse your hair is directly correlated to your curl type. If you have a wavy texture, you can use a regular shampoo once a week. Always condition before and after you shampoo. Curly textures can go without shampoo but will need to co-wash along with conditioning as often as once a week. Coily textures are only required to shampoo hair when absolutely necessary. According to this method, if you have this texture you will need to focus on co-washing regularly and conditioning between co-wash days.
#4 Identifying The Best Style For You
The most important factors to the curly girl method are in daily care and styling. The curly girl method is designed for you to use small amounts of heat by air-drying hair or wet setting with styling cream and conditioner. This will be essential for restoring damaged hair. The less heat you use, the faster your hair will recover and start looking healthy again.
