Everyone is aware that having flawless curls free of frizz does not guarantee that they will look the same the following day. The majority of the time, we have to restyle and refresh our curls the following day. Fortunately, there are several strategies to maintain the best possible condition of your hair in between washes.
1. Water
Water is usually all you need to keep your curls looking fresh. Since you still have products in your hair from the previous day, water is sufficient, especially on the second day. You can use a spray bottle or lightly moisten your hands. Then, to style your curls, comb them.
2. Let the conditioner run
You can mix your favorite leave-in conditioner with water if your hair feels dry. You can prepare your refreshment by mixing this in a spray bottle. Be wary of deposits! Your hair becomes greasy, heavy, and difficult to absorb moisture if you use hair products on a daily basis. Reapplying hair care products the following day is typically not required if you washed your hair the day before.
3. Make use of hold-equipped products
Start with the correct products to maintain the shape of your hair. Selecting products with “hold” will help you avoid having to restyle your curls for a long time. This can be applied as a gel following the leave-in conditioner, but a mousse can also work well. Wet your hair and scrunch some gel into it if you want to use it again.
4. Coils on the fingers
Curls that are totally out of shape are ideal for the finger coil method. This technique allows the curl to regain its shape by twisting the less attractive hair clumps around your finger. This is done on wet hair, possibly with gel or leave-in conditioner. After that, you can use a diffuser or let it air dry.
5. Curls on pins
Similar to the finger coil method, pin curls involve wrapping a hair strand around your finger. Just remove the hair from your finger and fasten it with a duckbill clip or bobby pin. The pin curls can then be blown dry or allowed to air dry. Those with loose curls will benefit most from this technique.
6. Rods with flex
Long, flexible curlers called “Papillots” or “Flexi Rods” produce the same results as a curling iron. All you have to do is wrap your hair around it. By blow-drying the tufts, you can expedite the drying process. There are various sizes of Flexi Rode available.
