Having curly hair wasn't always accepted in the "beauty standards" until recently. It took me many years to love my curly hair, and the biggest challenge that I have faced since starting to sport my naturally curly hair is managing it, but luckily, I created an easy curly hair routine for beginners.
Best advice for curly hair
Don't treat your curly hair as if it's straight! curly hair requires a unique treatment that is very different from a straight hair routine.
I used to have very negative emotions about my curly hair and I used heating tools to straighten it, then I depended on no-heat hair straightening methods and they just didn't work.
ِAfter watching many TikTok videos, I managed to have my very own simple and easy curly hair routine.
Easy curly hair routine for beginners based on my own experience to help anyone aiming to embrace their natural curly hair:
-Style your curly hair when it's soaking wet, not damp, and if your hair dries fast then a spray bottle is your friend.
-Never brush or comb your hair when it's dry, it will be frizzy and you could damage it.
-Use shampoo and conditioner that are suitable for curly hair and also suitable for your hair type/nature either oily or normal or dry.
-Never skip the leave-in conditioner and apply it before gel.
-If you don't have special brushes for curly hair then use your fingers to style your hair.
-Section your hair when you apply the products.
-Use the correct amount of products, especially gel, because too much of it can leave your hair sticky.
-Use a microfiber towel or a cotton shirt to dry your hair after apply your products (personally I air dry my hair)
-You might find straight strands in your hair and that could happen due to different reasons, don't be discouraged, finger coiling can help with them.
-Know that every curly hair has its own "personality" so you need to understand your hair and know what works best for it.
-Scrunch your hair in sections and gently
-Remember that embracing your naturally curly hair will make you feel unique and confident, it's your crown ;)
I know that it can be a challenge to manage curly hair, but I have created this step-by-step routine for beginners and those interested in curly hair that includes a few easy-to-follow instructions.
