The difference between straight and curly hair is obvious, but they also require significantly different amounts of time, effort, and product beyond just their appearance. On good days, there’s nothing quite like having a head full of bouncy, luscious curls. But on the not so good days, curly hair can be pretty temperamental.  

It seems like just about anything can rub your hair the wrong way; the weather, the wrong product, or even falling asleep with wet hair. All curls are slightly different, but they usually require the same staples: a curl-enhancing shampoo, conditioner, oil, and leave-in cream. We have five essential products that every curly hair girl should know about!

SHAMPOO & CONDITIONER

Generic shampoo and conditioners tend to weigh down curls, and worst of all, they lack much-needed moisture to get that lustrous shine. The Curl Enhancing Shampoo and Conditioner are packed with nourishing oils like coconut and argan that soften the hair strands without being too heavy.  

Sulfate products aren’t great for any hair type but can be especially damaging to curly hair. The Curl Enhancing duo is free of sulfates, parabens, and phosphates to give you the peace of mind that your washing routine won’t suck the moisture out of your curls; it’ll only make them bouncier!

LEAVE-IN CREAM

We’d bet money that most curly hair women have a vanity drawer that’s filled to the brim with products. As opposed to straight hair, washing your hair is only the beginning of your styling routine! However, the Curl Enhancing Leave-In Cream might simplify your mornings by being your next all-in-one product. 

Instead of using a leave-in conditioner followed by a mouse, the Leave-In Cream does the job of both. While deeply penetrating and injecting moisture into each strand, it also defines each curl. Not to mention, your hair won’t feel as weighed down or greasy to touch since it’s made using only lightweight oils!

HAIR OIL

If you’re a hair oil type of girl, the Jamaican Black Castor Oil is an intensive hair serum rich in minerals, hydrating oils, and protein. Due to its natural antifungal and antibacterial properties, black castor oil is great for soothing scalp irritation.  

Simultaneously, the added protein will create a glossy shine to the hair, improving its overall strength and thickness. Apply a small amount of serum on those days when your curls need that extra shine!

HAIR MASK

Treating your strands to a weekly mask will boost the hair’s hydration for the healthiest looking curls, leaving you with shine and definition. Especially if you live in an area with a drier climate or spend time traveling, your curls might suffer a little more than they should. The Coconut Milk Hair Mask contains coconut, argan, avocado, and almond oil, otherwise known as the most curl-friendly blend of oils!  

Just like that, you have all the secrets to waking up to beautiful curls! No more bad hair days; only bouncy, healthy, and hydrated curls. All it takes is the proper care, some added moisture, and, most importantly, products that are designed to help your curly hair thrive!
