In an ideal world, anyone and everyone with any type of hair type can purchase identical shampoo and conditioner and achieve the same results, but we do not live in an ideal world, hence curly heads must invest in a good curly-friendly shampoo and conditioner. Using CG (Curly Girl)-friendly products enhances your curls. Washing your hair upside down and using a tangle teaser to brush through the conditioner in the shower will increase the definition of your curls. We recommend you try Curlvana’s Fortifying Curl Cleanse Shampoo and Curl Shine Gentle Conditioner. The cleanser helps you get rid of grime and build up in your curls without losing natural oils, while the conditioner intensely hydrates your curls making them all shiny and bouncy!
2. How Do I Dry My Curly Tresses?

When it comes to drying curly hair, you can either choose to air dry it or diffuse it using a blow dryer. Either way, do not touch or adjust your curls after stepping out of the shower! And do not brush your hair when it is wet so that the definition of your curls does not wane. And it is extremely important that before air-drying or diffusing your hair, you use a leave-in-cream and styling gel to lock your curls in. We recommend you try Curlvana’s Moisture-Lock leave-in cream and curl-defining styling gel!

Hair styling that results in voluminous roots when you have long, curly hair can be tricky. You would be in a war against gravity because your long curls would be pulled down, thus making your curls look elongated and your roots appear flat. One way to mitigate this is by washing your hair upside down, as we mentioned before, and trying to add Curlvana leave-in cream to bring back the volume to your roots.
5. How Do I Renew My Curls After The Second Day Of Washing?

If you feel like your curls have become loose two days after showering, do not worry because it is natural for this to happen. To improve the look of your curls, try reapplying the Curlvana hair styling gel and scrunching it to add texture to your curls.
6. How Do I Maintain The Frizz?

The best and only way curly heads can reduce frizz is by making minimal contact with their hair, i.e., not touching it and not dry brushing their hair, because dry brushing their hair is a recipe for frizzy hair for curly heads. Curlvana Curl care range also helps in cutting down the frizz in your curls by intensely hydrating them.
