We understand the allure of trying different hairstyles and colours, but excessive heat styling or chemical treatments can leave a lasting impact on our curls. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with our top 5 tips on how to restore life to your damaged curly hair, with the help of protein treatments.
1. Embrace Heat-Free Styling
Consider giving your curls a break from heat styling tools. We know it’s tempting to reach for the straighteners or curling wands for a quick fix, but reducing heat exposure can significantly improve the health of your hair. Invest in a microfibre towel and learn the art of plopping and air-drying for natural, bouncy curls. Experiment with different updos or braids to enhance your natural texture and promote hair recovery. Remember, healthy hair is a journey, so take it one step at a time.
2. Trim Split Ends
Trimming off damaged ends is a reliable way to revive your curls. If you’re not ready for a shorter style, visit a curly hair stylist for regular trims. By prioritising the health of your hair over length, you’ll notice faster growth and improved overall hair condition.
3. Embrace Your Natural Colour
Celebrate the unique beauty of your natural hair colour. If you’re not ready to give up on highlights or lightening treatments, try minimising visits to the hairdresser.
4. Deep Condition Weekly
Make self-care Sundays a ritual for restoring hydration to your hair. After cleansing your scalp with our Bouclème Curl Cleanser, apply Bouclème Intensive Moisture Treatment to your hair sections. Leave it in for 10-15 minutes and gently detangle your hair. This deeply nourishing treatment can be rinsed out completely or partially, depending on your hair’s needs. It can also be used as a leave-in conditioner, except for very fine hair that may become weighed down.
5. Incorporate a Protein Treatment
Here’s the game-changer: Add a protein treatment to your weekly routine for optimal hair restoration. Damaged hair craves and benefits from protein, and we’ve got you covered. Introducing the new Bouclème Protein Booster, a customisable bonding hair treatment rooted in nature. It seamlessly integrates into your existing routine, compatible with Bouclème’s Intensive Moisture Treatment, Curl Cleanser, Hydrating Hair Cleanser, Curl Conditioner and Curl Cream.
Using the Protein Booster is simple. Just add six drops to a small palmful of your cleanser and/or conditioner, depending on the level of TLC your hair needs. Rinse out for a lighter dose or leave it in for a more intensive effect. The result? Improved elasticity and stronger bonds that bring your curls back to life.
We hope these tips help you on your journey to restore your natural curls.
