Though the winter holidays season may have ended, we’re still eagerly holding on to our love of glitter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\nFor quite a long time this has been one of our most frequently requested tutorials and it\u2019s finally here! Though I personally wash my curly hair maybe once or twice a week, depending on the exact situation at hand. Like whether I\u2019m shooting for the blog or where I\u2019m going. It all depends on the hairstyles I want to wear on any given day. I have been known to sometimes delay it for longer than a week and that\u2019s where braids come in.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AFTER THE SHOWER BUT WITH REALLY WET HAIR<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

So as I walk out of the shower, instantly take my curl cream, mix it between my palms and apply it to my hair. I try to spread the curl cream evenly through my hair and run my fingers through to get the curls form and stick together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Afterward, I give my hair a light scratch just to release some of the water and help the curl cream really sink into my hair. My hair is dripping wet at this point. I put my hair to the side so that I can let the curls hang and give them a good crunch right up to the root and squeeze out some excess water. At this point, I\u2019ll also get an old t-shirt just to give a really light  squeeze and scrunch my curls to remove the excess water. My curls still quite wet at this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, I take my favorite hair gel. I mix the gel between my palms and using my hands, rub it in my hair . I\u2019m not running my fingers through my hair so much as I try to evenly spread the gel over the curls. I then apply more gel to the ends of my hair and squidge up. Then the t-shirt comes up again and I use it to  the curls up to my head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXTRA STYLING TIP<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

To get an extra volume for my hair, I\u2019m going to employ some flat pin clips at the roots of my hair. These things assist in holding my hair up at the roots, so it doesn\u2019t dry flat. In my regular routine, I would leave my hair to air dry right from there\u2026  But let\u2019s speed it up with a diffuser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BLOWDRYING YOUR CURLS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

For the next step, we\u2019ll need a blow dryer with the diffuser attached. In dryer\u2019s settings I use high heat but low speed. That\u2019s because the heat must really get into your hair but you don\u2019t want to be blowing it around as this will just cause more frizz. The idea is that you hair needs to fall into the diffuser and bring the diffuser right up into the hair and work very slowly, one section at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this stage, I will blow dry my hair to about 80% dry so that I don\u2019t create too much extra frizz at the end of my curls.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

SCRUNCH OUT THE CRUNCH<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

To finalize it all we will need to scrunch out the gel. In order to complete this step, you\u2019ll have to wait until your hair is 100% dry\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you try and do it before you will just create more frizzes. Your hair may sound a little bit crispy because of the gel and there are usually two ways to solve that crispy issue and release the defined curls underneath. The first solution is to use an old t-shirt and do the same scrunching motion. This breaks the physical hold of the gel around your hair and makes your curls softer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alternatively, take a diffuser again and while using it on a medium heat setting, warm your hair a bit and then scrunch again. You\u2019ll break the gel cast with a mix of heat and scrunching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TAME FLYAWAYS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Usually, my hair suffers from at least few flyaways. To work around that I usually use a drop or two of oil to smooth over and define the ends. I also love to give my hair a bit of a shake just to get that extra volume at its roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s also an additional little trick that I have. You\u2019ll need to put your finger tips right through the roots of your hair and then give a little lift like a tiny shake and then bring your hands straight back out the way it came in. You don\u2019t want to run your fingers through your curls you just want to put them into your hair lift at the roots and then bring your hands straight back out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, if you notice any curls are sitting a little funny you can dampen them down with water and then re-twist them to get a better-shaped curl.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
