I have a curly hair?

my hair is curly and it gets puffy when its dried what can i use to calm it down i tried sunsilk but it dosent help a lot



plz help me



I have a curly hair?

Yeah I think Sunsilk is a horrible brand.



*Read the book and visit the sites below about curly hair. I did and my once horrible curly hair is now well defined and healthy. Now I get compliments on my hair all the time! Straighten your hair- be happy for a day, learn to manage your curly hair- be happy for life! But if this is completely uninteresting to you, disregard.



*To style your hair using the curly-girl method you will need gel, a leave in, and conditioner at the minimum. Some less useful, but still nice stuff would be a blow dryer, a diffuser (reduces frizz in curly/wavy hair when used with dryer), and a micro fiber hair turban/old t-shirts (to dry wet hair while sleeping or in the morning).



*The main philosophy of the curly-girl method is to not use shampoo. This may sound unhygienic but it has actually made my hair less oily and dandruffy. Most shampoos contain some of the same chemicals found in laundry detergent (aka sulfates). They dry out curly hair. Also you shouldn't brush your curly hair dry because it damages the hair and makes it poof.



*Massaging of the scalp with conditioner to remove dirt is all that is needed. It will clean everything but super clingy silicones (avoid these- ingredients will end in -xane, -conol, or -cone). Then rinse and spread conditioner on the outside layer of hair and the hair at the nape of your neck. Gently comb tangles out with your fingers or a wide toothed comb and rinse with cold/cool water.



*Do not brush/comb your hair after this point because it will disturb the curl pattern (make sure you already have a part preferably to one side). It is also important to use gel on sopping wet hair and scrunch the hair with your fingers. Make sure gel is evenly distributed everywhere in your hair. If you use too much you can always scrunch out the crunchy texture later.



*Use paper towels or an old t-shirt to gently scrunch some of the water out (generic towels can make hair frizz). You can either let your hair air dry or wait ten minutes and then use a blowdryer with a diffuser. Dry until your hair is almost dry, and then air-dry the last bit. Do not touch the hair while it is air-drying or it will frizz!



*Use a cheap, silicone free conditioner to scrub your scalp such as Suave Naturals or Vo5. Use a moisturizing conditioner, such as Kenra Moisturizing Conditioner (Ulta), for your hair. Cheaper suggestions are Nature's Gate or Desert Essences conditioners (health food stores). I recommend using a gel (LA Looks, Herbal Essences, La Bella) over a leave in (L閳ユ┉real Out of Bed Instant Texturizer). Experiment with whatever products you wish, but there are more conditioners, gels, etc. on the websites.



*You may be able to get away with some silicones (such as amodimethicone) if you clarify with a sulfate free shampoo. Try Devacurl no-poo (Ulta) or Cream of Nature (drug store). Feel free to find your own but always check the ingredients for sodium/ammonium lauryl/laureth sulfate.



*Your hair may seem worse at first, but it is just adjusting. This takes 2 to 4 weeks begin working. Before you decide to quit shampoo, do a final cleanse with shampoo and stop the use of any products with silicones in them. This is hard to do if you don't read the book, or at least visit the websites. Naturally curly hair can be beautiful! I hope you consider this- email me if you have any questions!

I have a curly hair?

moosse?



I have a curly hair?

Yeah my hair is the same, so I use 2 products.



First, I use Dove Anti-Frizz cream, like 2 squirts. I run that through my hair.



Then, I use Garnier Fructis (or however you spell it) curling gel. It helps keep my curls from going to crazy, and it smells GREAT.



I have a curly hair?

start conditioning it. Soon it will calm down.



I have a curly hair?

hey i have the same problem.



i used to always have to go to the salon.



luckily i found this gel called LottaBody Setting Lotion.



All you do is wet/wash your hair and apply it evenly.



then scrunch up your hair for a playful look and voila!



cute. dry. smooth curls!



I have a curly hair?

Try a good ceramic flat iron. I have a Solia iron and it works great - straightens my hair and leaves it soft and shiny. Mine is really puffy too and this helps it to lay down better.



I have a curly hair?

Use shampoo, don't just wash it with water hahaha



I have a curly hair?

I use Aveda curl creme, and it works really well.



Also, avoid brushing your curly hair with a brush, but instead use something called a "pick" to keep the individual curls together. This works for me!
