Wash day doesn't have to be a chore! Instead, it can be a self care ritual that helps you celebrate and appreciate your curls.
Here are a few simple tips to make your wash day experience more enjoyable:
- Shampoo infrequently as little as once every 2-3 weeks, remember you need to see what works best for your hair
- Wet hair is fragile hair so handle with care as it is prone to tangle and breakage
- Wash and style hair in sections, to help detangle without breaking stands.
- Using the palms of your hands pull hair from root to tip helping to uncoil curls without breaking.
- Avoid over brushing and fine combs, we recommend finger detangling.
- Avoid heat where possible
- Stretch hair with pulling methods, extension rods, band, & styling.
- Preparation is key, always set up the tools & products you will need before stating your wash.
- Avoid using a towel to dry hair, we recommend wrapping wet hair in a t-shirt and allowing to air dry
