Writer's picture: Iren UrdovaIren Urdova

Taking care of your hair starts with understanding your hair type, as each type has unique needs. Whether you have straight, wavy, or curly hair, here's how to treat it right to keep it healthy and looking its best.


Straight Hair

Straight hair tends to be more slippery and can appear oily more quickly due to the even distribution of natural oils from the scalp. To avoid excess oiliness, limit the use of heavy oils or conditioning products. Washing your hair too frequently can strip it of its natural oils, making it overproduce oil to compensate. Instead, opt for dry shampoo or texture spray to add volume and grit between washes. These products help manage oil while giving your hair a fuller look.


Wavy Hair

Wavy hair strikes a balance between straight and curly, but it can easily become weighed down by heavy products. To maintain your natural waves, avoid using too much oil or heavy creams, which can flatten your hair and ruin the texture. Instead, opt for lighter styling products like mousse or gel, which provide hold and definition without adding unnecessary weight. These products help enhance your waves and keep them looking natural and bouncy.


Curly Hair

Curly hair requires special care to maintain its shape and prevent frizz. Always use a curl enhancer or curl-defining cream to emphasize your natural curls and keep them hydrated. It's crucial to avoid brushing curly hair when it's dry, as this can disrupt the curl pattern and create frizz. Instead, detangle and style your curls while your hair is wet. While slick-back styles can be tempting for their ease, they can put stress on your hairline, potentially leading to hairline recession. Opt for styles that protect and respect your curls' natural structure.

Each hair type has its own set of care guidelines, but the common goal is to enhance your hair's natural beauty while keeping it healthy. By choosing the right products and techniques, you can ensure your hair stays vibrant and manageable, no matter its type.
