Hair masks are essential for curly hair because curls are naturally more prone to dryness and frizz due to their unique structure. The twists and bends in curly hair make it harder for natural oils to travel from the scalp to the ends, leaving curls in need of extra moisture. Hair masks provide deep hydration, nourishment, and repair by infusing each strand with essential nutrients like vitamins, oils, and proteins. Regular use of hair masks helps to lock in moisture, reduce breakage, enhance curl definition, and improve overall manageability, leaving curls soft, healthy, and full of bounce!
Shea Moisture offer a large range of potential hair masks. In order to achieve your best curl results, it’s always a good idea to choose one that is designed to meet your curl needs.
Here is a quick way to work out if it suits your needs:
