My Hair Routine

Whenever I searched on blogs or on youtube I always found it hard to find people openly talking about having curly hair and how they maintained it. So therefore here I am telling the world what I do to keep my curls in tack for 2-3 days until the next wash!

Step 1: Shampoo and Conditioner - This could be any brand at any time I dont stick to a specific brand or type its just whatever one I feel my hair needs at that time. In this case I used Herbal Essences Beautiful Ends (Shampoo and Conditioner) as my hair needed to feel loved.

Step 2: Whilst the conditioner is on I brush my hair with my bright pink Tangle Teaser (Buy Here) which I think every curly haired woman should have, its not too harsh on your hair and gets the job done. In my experience you should only brush your hair during the conditioning process brushing your hair when its dry causes all the frizz and the bush like appearance. 



Step 3: Flip your hair upside down and I use the Umberto Giannini Curl Friend: Smoothly Curls Anti-Frizz Serum (Buy Here) and scrunch it into my head, I only tend to use 1-2 pumps of the serum as it can be too oily looking and greasy if I use more. 




Step 4: With your head still flipped upside down use Umberto Giannini Curl Friends: Flirty Curls Scrunching Jelly (Buy Here) and again I scrunch it into my head, I tend to use about a 10 pence piece size otherwise your hair will get crunchy. 


Step 5: Mousse (Buy Here) is pretty important to any curl haired woman and so this step is definitely important, The amount you use is important as it can make your curls hard and nasty, I use about half my palm size, less is definitely more in this case. Again scrunch it into your hair. I tend to flip my hair and ruffle the crown of my head a little to add some volume. 



Step 6: This is an optional step, I use VO5 Texturing Spray (Buy Here) flipping my hair upside down I spray all over my head and scrunch to try and add definition and texture to my hair.

Step 7: I flip my head and gather my hair and begin to twist it and gather it to a bun at the top of my head in order for it to all gather in my hair turban. 



Step 8: I put my hair turban on, I recently bought the Soap and Glory Hair Turban (Buy Here) rather than use the Primark Hair Turban, I think the Soap and Glory turban is more secure and tight and allows my hair to stay in place. The reason I put the hair turban on is so that the moisture stays in my hair.


Step 9: Literally right before I sleep I take the turban off and ensure my hair is above my head on the pillow whilst I sleep. When I wake up I just flip my head upside down and ruffle my hair and that's it. No more products! 


Hope that was helpful
