Wash day delivers freshly moisturised, bouncy and defined curls. Planning wash day around special occasions to ensure our curls are popping when it matters most is common practise for us curlies!
Although day 5 results won’t look as sleek as wash day curls, you can still have plump, moisturised curls throughout the week without refreshing. Refreshing is a great way to rejuvenate curls, but if you don’t have time or simply don’t want to refresh your strands, then follow these two little practises that can make all the difference.
Lasting hydration with a deep conditioner
Deep conditioners offer hydration that truly lasts. These ultra potent hair treatments are an essential for every curl girl’s routine. It’s great to deep condition every 7-10 days. Alternating between two different deep conditioners is great way to give your curls a diverse burst of nutrients.
Flora & Curl Rose Water & Honey Molasses Moisture Mask is great for deep conditioning because it contains an array of powerful ingredients. Among the nourishing ingredients is raw sugar molasses. This is a rich syrup derived from sugarcane with lots of natural minerals that soften the hair and enhance water absorption. This mask gives strands moisture and softness that doesn’t just look good on wash day, but also lasts.
Keeping moisture in with a sleep bonnet
Sleep bonnets make a massive impact on the longevity of your curls. They help keep curls softer and more defined through keeping moisture in your hair. Pillowcases and sheets have the tendency to suck moisture out of our strands, which is why the soft barrier of a silk bonnet makes all the difference.
These simple but effective modifications to your routine can make all the difference. I’m excited for you to enjoy softer, hydrated strands 🙂
