Why do I get frizzy curls?
Frizzy hair is something that most people are familiar with. Many people especially have to struggle with unmanageable and frizzy hair during the cold winter months, but for people who have curls, frizzy hair is a completely different battle that usually has to be tackled all year round. This is due, among other things, to the non-uniform shape of the hair fibres, which contributes to: That curly hair tends to be more fragile.
Frizzy hair is most often caused by the cold weather, which helps to make the hair dry and in some cases tangled. Therefore, it is first and foremost important to keep your curly hair healthy and moist if you want to avoid frizz. In addition, remember to use conditioner every time you wash your hair. If you want to do even more for your hair to appear shiny, you can use the Repair and Shine Serum and a hair elixir .
What is curly hair?
Curly hair is a hair type where the hair naturally forms curls, waves or falls. It is a beautiful and unique hair type that adds texture and movement to the hair. Curly hair can be both thick and strong or fine and fragile, and it can vary in density and shape. Frizzy hair is often a challenge for people with curly hair as it can be difficult to control and style. It is important to care for and moisturize curly hair regularly to avoid frizz and keep hair looking healthy and beautiful.
Why do I get curls?
People get curly hair because of their genetic makeup. It is determined by a combination of several genes that affect the shape of their follicles and determine the texture of the hair. The curvature of these follicles produces a wave or curl in the hair shaft. People with more tightly coiled hair tend to have more curls, while people with straighter follicles will have less curly or wavy hair . In addition, the amount of sebum that the body produces also has an impact on how curly or straight a person's hair is. People with naturally dry scalps produce less sebum, which can lead to dry, frizzy curls. On the other hand, people with oily scalps produce too much sebum, which can weigh down hair strands and make them appear flatter, smoother and straighter than they would otherwise be.
Can everyone get curls?
No, not everyone can have curls. Some people are born with naturally curly hair, while others may need to use styling products and techniques to achieve a curly hairstyle. Also, some hair types are better suited to curls than others; for example, coarse or thick hair is more likely to hold a curl than finer or thinner hair. Generally speaking, the ability to get curls depends on factors such as hair type, genetic make-up and styling techniques used.
This is how you get the most beautiful curls
Do you know how to "tame" your curls best? When you spend time caring for and styling your curls, you bring out the best in them. Follow our 6 tips below.
1. Turn down the heat
When drying or styling your hair, turn down the heat. This applies both when you stand under the shower in the bath and when you use the blow dryer and other styling tools that use heat. We recommend that you wash your hair in lukewarm water, rather than hot, and that different styling tools are not used at temperatures above 185 degrees.
In addition to avoiding excessive temperatures, it is also relevant how you dry your curly hair. When you need to blow dry your curls, you can use a diffuser to your advantage. A diffuser can help do what everyone with curly hair wants: to emphasize natural curls.
Remember that when you use a diffuser, you must stop blow-drying just before the hair is completely dry. In this way, you avoid drying out the curls with the hot air more than necessary.
2. Use moisturizing products
In connection with styling curly hair, there are special products for curls that can help make the whole process easier. An advantage can be, for example, that you make use of a set that specifically has your curly hair in mind, such as a Twirl and Curl set .
When washing your hair, it is important that you use both a conditioner and a shampoo that is also moisturizing. As your curly hair constantly needs moisture, it is also a good idea that you regularly remember to treat your hair with moisturizing products, such as oil drops and Twirl and Curl Styling Cream , as it contains nourishing shea and Aloe Vera.
3. Put the brush on the shelf - and use a comb instead
When you have to create the perfect curls, then part of it is that you avoid frizzy hair. As I said, you get frizzy hair when your hair is dry. If your hair is dry, it is also easier to break when you brush it through.
You must avoid separating your curls from each other. Therefore, you should replace your regular brush with a comb instead. A comb is gentler on both your hair and your scalp. In general, we recommend that you comb your hair while you are in the bath and have a good hair treatment or conditioner in it. With a comb, you minimize the risk of broken strands, and at the same time you ensure that your hair remains moist and delicious.
4. Dry the hair by making a plop
A plop is the most effective way to dry your hair if you want to preserve and enhance your natural curls as best as possible. You put the hair in a plop by letting it fall into a t-shirt or a microfiber towel . Then you wrap the hair in the towel and place it on top of your head.
Once the towel has been attached to the head, it should usually be allowed to sit for a total of 15 to 60 minutes to give the best results. A good tip might be to sleep with the plop in overnight. In this way, your hair gets the chance to dry, and you wake up with beautiful, styled hair.
5. Put your hair up in a bun before retiring
When you talk about curly hair, it's usually about having the right routines. Therefore, make it part of your evening routine to put your hair up in a bun or ponytail and sleep with it overnight - preferably on a bamboo , silk or satin pillowcase.
