Hey y'all so today I'm going to share with you
seven mistakes that a lot of girls do that have curly hair
if you do any of these things I guarantee you
you will end up with frizz and undefined hair so let's get to it
Number one, Don't brush your hair
do you want to see what my hair looks like when it's brushed out?
yeah anyways you get the picture don't brush curly hair
if you have to get rid of tangles always use a wide tooth comb
or just use your fingers
Number two don't blow dry it
If you have curly hair and you're coming out of the shower and you grab the blow dryer and go
(sound of the blow dryer) you're just begging for frizz and breakage
air drying is always the best option for curly hair
it'll help your curls become more defined and its healthier for your hair
Number 3
don't towel dry. I know this has happened to all of us throughout our childhood
our mom takes us out of our bath when she gave us a bath, she puts the towel on our heads
and she rubs our head
just don't... okay?
you gonna get a lot of breakage and a whole lot of frizz
instead
when you come out of the shower grab a t-shirt and scrunch your hair like this
do this instead. It'll help encourage curl formation
and it will cut down your frizz by a LOT
Number 4
don't mindlessly buy products. Make sure you know the ingredients of what you're using
if your hair is dry and frizzy you're gonna have to take a look at what you're putting in it
always opt for products that are sulfate free and silicone free
sulfates are harsh detergents that are found in shampoos
they strip your hair of sebum and they also cause more frizz for curly hair
buying a sulfate free shampoos will help preserve that sebum in our scalp
and will keep our hair moisturized and more defined
silicones are a plastic like substance
that are found in shampoos, conditioners, and serums and a lot of styling products
silicones are man made ingredients and they're not biodegradable
which means they will build up on your hair
and they can lead to frizz, they can lead to greasy scalp
they can lead to a huge lack of volume and lack of definition
so make sure you always look for products that are sulfate and silicone free
Number 5
don't sleep with wet hair
when curly hair is wet that is when it's most obedient
once curly hair is dry, game over. It's gonna do whatever it wants at that point
so when your hair is wet do whatever you can to make sure that your curls dry nice and defined and moisturized
so when your hair is wet and you go on your pillow
you know, you move around, whatever
its going to severely hinder your curl formation you're gonna end up with weird lumps
frizz and you could get breakage because wet hair is really
fragile and prone to breakage so you have to be really gentle with it
time your showers and make sure that your hair is 100% dry before you go to sleep
Number 6
protect your hair overnight. We all know that only watch a movie
it's a huge sack of lies when you wake up perfect, okay?
you have to take certain measures
to prevent disasters in the morning.
put your hair up in a really high loose bun or sleep in a silk scarf
do something to protect your hair don't just go to sleep with your hair
loose and hope for the best in the morning so always sleep in a protective style
this is how I like to sleep
Number 7
don't sleep on a cotton pillowcase
now, cotton material isn't necessarily horrendous for your hair
sleeping on cotton pillowcase is more bad for the fact that you're creating a lot of friction while you sleep
cotton is not slippery at all so you're gonna be moving like this
and it's definitely going to create frizz on your hair
instead buy a pillow case that's slippery
it can be satin silk or polyester
and lastly
don't hate your. Curly hair is so awesome
it beautiful it has a mind of its own, its unique
it makes you... you! and curly hair is just awesome honestly
instead of fighting against your hair work with your hair educate yourself and
strive to receive the proper knowledge
to care for your hair and you will see your curls just popping all over the place and you will love it, I promise
alright y'all thank you so much and those are the biggest mistakes
for curly hair so if you do it any of these things please stop immediately
thank you so much for watching you guys are amazing
bless your hearts thank you
Byeeee!!
