Curly Hair Tips From Top Hairdressers In Bishop's Stortford

Those of you with naturally curly hair know that it takes special care to ensure your curls look their best. Naturally curly or afro hair is often dry which means it is prone to breaking and splitting.  If you are struggling with your curly hair, take some time to talk to one of our stylists who can recommend the best products and hair routine to keep your hair looking fabulous all year round.  Read on to find out more about how to care for your curly hair...

Curly Hair Care Tips

First, let's find out why curly hair can be difficult to manage! The curls and twists in your hair mean the natural oils on your scalp struggle to work their way through your hair shaft.  This means your hair can end up dry, damaged and frizzy.  Dry curls are more likely to become knotted and tangled too - so curly hair needs to be handled with care at all times. 

Have A Regular Trim

Keep your split ends at bay with a trim every 6-8 weeks at our hairdressing salon in Bishop's Stortford.  A regular trim will improve the appearance of your curls and give your hair more shape.  Call us on 01279 505151 / 506010 to book.

Give Your Hair A Break From Relaxers & Bleach

Take a break from chemical treatments such as relaxers or bleach if your hair is looking dull, lifeless and is breaking. Instead, invest in a bespoke Goldwell DualSenses hair treatment in our Hertfordshire salon.  

Avoid Washing Your Hair Daily 

Avoid washing your hair every day and invest in a sulphate-free curl-enhancing shampoo and conditioner.  Rinse with cooler water to close the hair cuticle and remember to pat your hair dry rather than rubbing it vigorously with a towel.

Take A Break From Heated Styling Tools 

Step away from the heated styling tools.  Let your hair dry naturally and, if you really have to style your hair with tongs or a straightener, make sure you use a heat protection spray.
