Our Standouts For Curly And Coily Hair
Keeping curly hair in good shape is a delicate process. With the famous Curly Girl Method (CGM), it takes a while to understand your hair and the correct way to nurture it with the right products and tools. Here are the best products for curly hair to keep your hair healthy and vibrant with just a little commitment.
Silk Pillowcase
When you decide to embrace your curly hair, a silk pillowcase is the number one product to get. Silk is an anti-static fabric gentle to your hair and unlike traditional cotton pillowcases, it helps your hair stay hydrated while you sleep and prevents frizz and friction. Your waves, curls or coils will shine like never before.
Diffuser
Another great tool that takes the hair care routine to a new level. The diffuser minimises hair frizz and adds bounce and divine volume to your hair. It also reduces the drying time which makes things easier.
Volumizing Sprays
Believe us, you are not the only curly girl with a lack of volume. For the volume that lasts all day try CG-approved volumising sprays that add a great texture to the roots and immediately send your hair to the clouds! Our favourite volumising spray is Sebastian Professional Volupt spray for volume.
Leave-in moisturisers
Curly hair screams for moisture. A spray leave-in conditioner helps you maintain hydration and refresh your hair between washes. Our favourite pick is Cocunat Curly Method by Cocunat set of moisturising gel for curl definition and leave-in conditioner for curly hair.
Silk Scrunchies
Did you know that traditional hair ties can damage your curls? Silk scrunchies are gentle on the hair, eliminate frizz and friction and minimize the risk of hair breakage. You can also use them for maintaining curls overnight with the pineapple method. Last but not least they help you prevent headaches as they don't pull your hair tightly and reduce the overall tension.
Deep Conditioner
Put your shiniest curls forward with a good quality deep conditioner that nourishes dry hair and keeps it healthy and resilient. To find the best conditioner for curly hair, seek a conditioning mask with CGM-approved ingredients such as natural oils (avocado, grapeseed etc.) and nourishing butter. You can find many websites online that will quickly check the product ingredients for you to see whether they are 'good for curl' or not. Deep conditioners should create a good balance between protein and moisture in your hair that equals nourishment and strength.
Scalp Massager
A miracle tool that stimulates blood flow to the scalp, disturbs natural oils and helps your curls grow strong and healthy. You can use the silicone scalp massager every wash day to assist your shampoo in releasing dirt, dandruff and product buildup from the scalp or on dry hair for a nice relaxing moment.
Your hair deserves it!
