Learn how to achieve maximum definition for your curls and coils with these 7 expert tips:
Tip 1: Start Fresh
Begin your routine with a thorough cleanse and conditioning session to ensure your curls are hydrated and primed for styling. Flora & Curl’s Rose Water Cream Shampoo and Conditioner duo, enriched with Pro-vitamin B, hydrates and strengthens your curls, setting the stage for maximum definition.
Tip 2: Take The Time To Detangle
Combat knots and tangles by detangling your curls before applying products. This ensures a smooth application process and prevents disruptions to your curls’ natural pattern.
Tip 3: Dry Your Curls With A Gentle Plopping Towel
Avoid roughing up your curls by using a soft cotton towel to gently remove excess water and product without causing damage or frizz. Instead, opt for our plopping towel.
Tip 4: Section Your Curls Before Applying Your Products
Enhance definition by applying your products in smaller sections, ensuring that every part of your hair is adequately covered. This technique guarantees uniform product distribution and maximises curl definition.
Tip 5: What Products To Use
Select curl-enhancing products like our Rose Water Detangling Lotion and Sweet Hibiscus Curl Defining Gel to promote soft hold, smoothness, and bounce. Layering these products on wet hair encourages curl formation, reduces frizz, and adds shine.
Tip 6: Techniques
Experiment with different techniques such as finger coiling, brush styling, squish to condish, and rake and squeeze to encourage curl clumping and definition. Find the method that works best for your hair type and desired style.
Tip 7: Diffuse or Plop For Maximum Volume
Achieve volume, definition, and less frizz by diffusing your curls. Try hover diffusing or pixie diffusing to speed up drying time while maintaining your curls’ natural shape and bounce. For a quicker and easier routine, opt for the plopping method.
Bonus Tip: Protect Your Curls While You Sleep
Preserve your curl definition overnight with a silk pillowcase and gentle pineapple technique using gentle scrunchies. These simple steps help maintain your curls’ shape and prevent frizz while you sleep.
Try these tips to achieve soft, bouncy, and defined curls that last.
