Curly hair is a blessing in disguise. You can get the largest variety of looks, if you have the time to straighten your hair. If not, curl control is important. Curls made a big comeback, but making them look good is another story. Sometimes the tangling and blow-drying is enough stress to keep your curly locks frizzy for a while. Follow some of these rules, but for the best results using a diffuser as opposed to a blow dryer is recommended.

 Always use a good moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. The more you touch your root, the frizzier it can get. Treat yourself once a month, if possible, to a deep conditioning treatment. It helps control your ends, and replenish what the harsh daily wear takes out.

Take heed if you want to go Blonde or a Platinum Blonde: stripping your hair of its natural color to go lighter makes it dry, and your curls will turn limp and dry.

Use a big toothed comb or a pick when combing out your wet hair. Most of the damage happens when your hair is wet, so use a sealer like BC Bonnicure’s Sealed Ends, before and after you blow-dry. It helps with split ends and frizzy hair.
