Top Tips for your Curls this Winter
To keep curls hydrated, shiny and manageable, follow these essential winter curl care tips:
Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate! Use a good leave-in conditioner or curl cream to keep your curls moisturised. Look for products rich in natural oils and humectants (like aloe vera and glycerin) that draw moisture into your hair and lock it in. You may even want to use a bit more than usual during this season to give your curls extra protection.
Limit Heat Styling Winter can be tempting for straightening and blow-drying, but too much heat can strip your curls of essential moisture. If you must use heat, apply a quality heat protectant and keep the temperature low. Better yet, try air-drying or diffusing on low heat to maintain curl integrity.
Use Silk or Satin Accessories Winter wool hats are warm but can rough up your curls, causing frizz and breakage. Try lining your hats with a silk or satin scarf or switching to a satin-lined beanie. Silk and satin protect curls from friction and keep moisture in, so your curls won’t look as flattened and frizzy when you take off your hat.
Add a Weekly Treatment to Your Routine Give your curls some love with a weekly deep conditioning or reparative treatment. K18, for instance, goes deep into the hair to repair damage, making it perfect for those extra chilly days. Regular treatments can help revive curl shape and add a smooth, shiny finish that lasts.
Protective Styles and Low-Manipulation Styles Try protective styles that keep your curls tucked away, like twists, braids, or updos. These reduce exposure to the elements, lower the risk of breakage, and are great for days when you’re wearing hats or scarves.
