1. Choosing the right shampoo and conditioner for you: 

 

It is very important when it comes to hair. Different products can cater to the needs of curly hair. You may find the right one for you after a couple of trials and errors. Curls do get affected by such experimentation. A wise thing to do here is to find a good consultant and get your hair assessed. As everyone is different and everyone’s hair needs are different too.

2.            Pre shampoo treatment:  

 

In order to make sure hair does not lose its luster, experts advise using a pre-shampoo application on hair. TLP products bring your hair that protective moisturizing layer that is needed to safeguard the natural form. It is important to detangle before wetting the hair because when hair is wet it is most vulnerable. Once the hair is pH balanced and used to a regimen this step may not have to happen so frequently.

3.            Water: Hot or cold?

 

A very confusing question for many is whether to use hot water or cold. Hot water opens hair’s cuticles, which makes it easy for the shampoo and conditioner to seep in well and do their job better. Coldwater, on the contrary, seals the cuticle and locks the moisturizer leaving your hair looking shinier, hydrated, and most importantly frizz-free. So a mix of both hot and cold as per the priority is the best take. Many are not aware that a filter needs to be used as the water source to block metals, toxins, chlorine, and other harmful elements we are not aware of.

4.            Partition and wash:

 

It’s a good practice to gently divide the curls into sections and clip away, apply shampoo in that section, thoroughly work in and rinse along with the length. Repeat for other sections. Although the process needs a little more time, it is worth the effort you take in protecting the natural beauty of hair. The love of people recommends applying shampoo to the scalp on dry hair for maximum results.

5.            Protect the natural oil: 

 

Replenishing the scalp with oils that deposit nutrients, vitamins, and various herbs that reduce inflammation are a must. Curly hair has natural oils to ensure health and shine. The shampoo is good only once or twice else there is a chance of hair losing its sheen and inner strength. So, in short, over-shampooing should be avoided. Heaven Scent by TLP is the best hair growth oil that helps to maintain the natural oil balance of the scalp.

6.            Always A wide-toothed comb:

 

A wide-toothed comb or better still, finger combing is best for curly hair for the obvious reason that it will help prevent hair breakage and be gentle on your lovely curls. It is best not to fiddle with the hair while it's wet. Also combing from down to up and using a wooden comb are known to decrease breakage. Not to forget finger detangling.

7.            Trimming Regularly:

 

It's a must to make sure that hair is trimmed regularly and that too when it's dry. Trimming reduces the tendency of hair not showing any growth. It also ensures that that quality is maintained. Wet hair trimming can lead to a loosened pattern. So, for best results, wait for it to dry.

8.            Heat styling: 

 

It is something that should be done with heat protectants first. Investing in a nice heat styler not only saves bucks but increases the chances of getting an amazing result. Hair must be wrapped at night to protect the style you are making the effort for. Satin pillows come in handy in making sure your hair receives the least friction. Cotton tees are best for drying hair, even towels may cause harm and so would touching too often !

9.            Say NO to Chemicals: 

 

Ignorance is not bliss always. Watch out for chemicals like parabens, triethanolamine, sodium lauryl sulfate, formaldehyde, and the like. Try and go for environmentally mindful organic products for hair to feel happier and hence healthier.

Following the points detailed above will definitely help eliminate the common mistakes we make with our curls.
