Dealing with curly hair can feel like a nightmare. They are often difficult to tame, and they can get frizzy out of nowhere. However, if cared for and styled correctly, curly hairstyles can be one of the most eye-catching hairstyles for gentlemen.
Here are some tips for caring for curly hair and making it work.
1) Take care of your curls
First of all, the most important thing you can do is embrace your curls. If your hair is naturally curly, unfortunately, looking for super straight hairstyles for inspiration won't help. These are not suitable for your hair type. Yes, hair straightening is possible, but it will only make your life more difficult. You'll spend ages styling your hair in the morning, and applying a lot of heat to your hair with tools like curling irons can damage your hair. Therefore, focus on styles that make more use of your curls. It is said that curls are popular with both girls and boys.
2) Use the hair dryer correctly.
If you use a hair dryer, be careful not to get the temperature too high. Use a hairdryer on medium heat and finish with cold air to fix the curls. Applying too much heat to curly hair can make your hair dry and frizzy, reducing the volume and definition of your curls. Therefore, try not to apply too much heat and protect your curls when applying heat.
Using a diffuser is also a good idea. It's also a good idea to use a diffuser specifically designed for curls along with your hair dryer. This will prevent frizz, reduce heat damage, and dry your hair faster without messing up your hair. Curl.
3) Upgrade your shampoo
If you want to keep your curly hair dry and healthy, don't use cheap drugstore shampoos full of harsh chemicals every day. Ideally, you want a super moisturizing shampoo that moisturizes your hair and doesn't strip it of its natural oils. Curly hair dries more easily than most hair types and must be kept properly moisturized to avoid frizz and damage.
There's a lot of debate about whether or not daily shampoo is bad, but there's no real evidence either way. How often you should wash your hair is a personal matter, so we don't recommend it. But first make sure you're using the right products, then make an educated decision about how often you wash your hair. Watch for excessive dryness or dandruff to determine if you're likely overwashing, and if there's not enough greasiness or dirt buildup.
4) Conditioner will be your best friend
And that brings us to the conditioner. As men, we often use either shampoo or conditioner or an all-in-one. These aren't wrong for everyone, but if you have curly hair, conditioner is your best friend, so don't skimp on that part. You should incorporate conditioner into your routine and at least make sure you use shampoo after conditioner. This will help retain some moisture and prevent your hair from becoming dry and frizzy.
You can also use a leave-in conditioner several times a week. This allows you to do the same job without having to wash your hair as much.
