The Overwhelming CurlyTok: what I learned about natural curls


I recently decided to restart my curly hair journey, after feeling discouraged by the curly hair influencers on TikTok. I was overwhelmed and I ended up straightening my hair during the winter months. But I'm now determined to embrace my natural curls once again.


The world of curly hair on TikTok can be intimidating, with influencers sharing complicated methods and routines with expensive products.


Now I'm resuming/restarting my curly hair routine, this is what I learned so far:


-curly hair doesn't have to be flawless, and it's okay to have frizz and different curl patterns.


-I don't need 10 different expensive products to manage my curly hair. 


-There's no need for a 10-step routine.


-Styling curly hair with a wet brush depends on slow brushing and sectioning your hair while styling it.


-Air drying is better than diffusing. 


-Refreshing curls can be done with a little bit of water.


Curly hair gives me confidence and makes me feel unique, I'm not giving up on my hair again. I'm loving my hair just the way it is.


If you're on your curly hair journey then my advice is to focus on what works for you. Curly hair is beautiful in its own way.
