Anyone with curly hair has heard at least one person with straight strands lament, "Your hair is so pretty, I wish I had curly hair!" It's meant to be a compliment, but having a good curly hair day is harder than it looks.
Good news is you're in the right place to get your easiest, healthiest hair routine ever. First, these simple tips will keep curly human hair weave looking shiny and strong. Then, advance to eight easy hairstyles you can whip out before the morning coffee's ready.
CURLY HAIR CARE TIPS
1. Always comb your hair from the bottom up.Starting at the bottom allows you to gently de-tangle each knot, rather than compounding them all toward the bottom and yanking your way through with a comb.
2. Keep your ends trimmed to avoid split ends.
Split ends are never a good look (not to mention they can make your hair frizzy!). If you want healthy curls that look bouncy and fresh, head to the hairstylist every six to eight weeks for a quick trim.
3. Use a wide-tooth comb to de-tangle your curls, never a brush.
"Curly hair is the most fragile type on the block, and each curl is a potential breaking point," explains Renee. "Using a wide-tooth comb is the gentlest way to de-tangle curls and it doesn't disrupt the natural curl pattern as much as a brush would." (Don't forget to start at the bottom — see tip #1!)
4. Apply a conditioning treatment to your ends when your hair needs a little boost.
When your hair goes through a dry or dull phase, what you don't want to do is weigh it down with a ton of product. Simply use your fingertips to apply a dime-size blob of styling cream or oil to your ends, giving them extra moisture and bounce.
