Hair Care Tips to Curly Hair
Sun Protection
Maintaining curly hair can be a tall task during summers. That’s because there is less moisture in them and overexposure to the sun rays adding upto dehydration. Make sure to stay away from hot sunlight.
Avoid excess shampooing
When you shampoo your curly hair too much, it is likely to rob your hair of the essential nutrients, thereby making it dry and frizzy. To fight out summer sweat, you can rinse your hair with water and/or mild conditioner without shampooing every day.
Hydrating hair
Curly hair has lots of protein but is low in moisture. This makes it crave for extra moisture. Since they are prone to getting moisture from the hot and humid hair, they are likely to look puffy and unmanageable. So during summers, it is best to keep curly hair well hydrated by using a deep moisturizing mask every week.
Towelling
Putting a coarse towel on your curly hair is liable to make it feel rough like a sand paper and uncomfortable to manage. Therefore, try and use soft towels on your curly wonders.

Try and avoid using hair dryers or strengtheners when it comes to tackling curly hair. On the other hand, let your hair dry out naturally. This will help in keeping your scalp cool.
