1. To add volume to your hair

Many curlies often struggle with thin flat hair and don’t know how to fix the problem. We suggest trying volume-enhancing methods like finger coiling and plopping. Also adding in shampoos and conditioners with volumizing ingredients such as Betaines, Sultaines etc. works wonders.

2. To add definition to your hair

If you want those gorgeous defined 3D curls for your dreams, we suggest you invest in a good curling cream. Look for creams with natural ingredients such as Shea butter and Coconut Oil. Also, go for products that give a better hold. This will ensure that your curls stay lustrous between wash days.

3. To minimize frizz

Hydration is the key to minimize frizz and eliminate dryness. Opt for Sulphate and Alcohol-free cleansers and conditioners. Also, include a good leave-in conditioner in your hair care routine for extra hydration.

Also, another effective way to reduce frizz is to invest in a good quality hair diffuser.

A diffuser is a hair-drying tool that distributes heat evenly on the surface of your hair to provide effective drying and eliminate frizz.
