VIDEO: Curly Girl Method
How to use the curly girl method
The curly girl method is based on the book of the same name and helps incorrectly to let treated and stressed curls shine in full shine again. To do this, you will have to change your hair and wash routine a little, but you will see that it is worth it.
- Before you start the curly girl method, you should get your hair Wash with a sulfate-containing shampoo to rid them of silicone.
- It is also advisable to trim the damaged and stressed tips before starting the Curly Girl method.
- In the future, you should avoid using shampoo when washing your hair, as it makes curly hair frizzy and unnecessarily damaged. Use conditioner instead. Start shampooing by massaging the conditioner into your scalp. Then gently distribute the conditioner into the rest of the hair, detangle it with your fingers and rinse the hair with cool or cold water. Make sure that you use silicone-free care products.
- Another important factor with the curly girl method is that a brush should never be used. Brushing does unnecessary damage to the hair, so try to detangle the hair with your fingers only. If that doesn't work, you can use a wide-toothed comb and some non-rinsing treatment to help.
- Under no circumstances should you use a blow dryer to dry your hair, as this also damages the hair. Instead, use a microfiber towel or an old t-shirt, but not a terry towel, to knead your hair. The best thing to do now is to let your hair air dry, but if it has to be done quickly, you can blow dry your hair cold.
- So-called plopping is suitable to reduce the drying time. To do this, you need a flat microfiber towel or T-shirt. Bend over it upside down and place your hair in the center of the scarf. The sides of the scarf are now gathered together at the forehead and twisted right and left. Then everything is fastened in the neck with a hair elastic. The towel can be removed after about 30 minutes.
- To keep your hair healthy, you should have the tips cut every five months.
