How do I choose between a cream, gel, or mousse? Creams offer moisture and softness, gels provide hold and definition, and mousses add volume and lightweight control.
Can I layer curl products? Yes, layering a leave-in conditioner with a curl cream or gel helps lock in moisture and define curls for longer-lasting results.
Should I avoid certain ingredients? Yes, avoid sulphates, drying alcohols, and heavy silicones if you follow the Curly Girl Method or have easily weighed-down curls.
How often should I apply curl products? Apply after every wash to wet or damp hair. Refresh curls with a leave-in spray or water mist between wash days.
Can I use heat tools on curly hair? Yes, but always use a heat protectant and consider using a diffuser to enhance natural curls without causing damage.
Will these products work on all curl types? Most are suitable for curl types 2 (wavy) to 4 (coily), but fine-tuning products based on hair density and porosity gives best results.
Do I need a special drying method? Air drying, plopping, or diffusing with minimal touching helps maintain curl shape and prevent frizz.
