What products to nourish your curly, coily and kinky hair
Textured hair in general tends to be naturally drier. Due to the more or less pronounced crimp, curly , wavy , kinky and coily hair allows natural moisture and that provided by products to escape more easily. Breakage is therefore more of an issue for textured hair.
But how to understand his hair and be sure to give him what he needs? We are here for that, and this article will give you the keys to nourished and strong hair. To better understand your hair and know which products to apply to provide hydration and suppleness, go to this article !
Nutrition: fortifying the fiber & preventing breakage
We too have already confused the terms moisturize and nourish . This is a subject that comes up regularly and we wanted to help you better understand and therefore better maintain your hair.
Nutrition goes hand in hand with moisture, but it does not have the same result at all. Nutrition will make the hair fibre, whether it is kinky, coily, curly, frizzy or straight, stronger. Strength that translates into less split ends, less breakage and therefore more strength and length.
In short, nutrition will strengthen your hair and make it healthier in the long run!
Wavy and curly hair: nutrition without weighing it down
On a daily basis, wavy and curly hair will need light nourishing products. Indeed, they need more hydration than nutrition because their curls, less marked than those of coily and kinky hair, generate a little less breakage.
To nourish and structure the hair, you can apply:
- the Kurl Potion for the finest hair. This light leave-in, based on sweet almond and quinoa vegetable oil, will strengthen the hair fiber without weighing it down and without leaving a greasy finish.
- the Kurl Nectar for the thickest or most damaged hair. Its very rich composition based on cocoa butter, cupuaçu butter and vegetable soy and castor oil will structure the fiber and give it more strength.
Every week, don't hesitate to make a mask with Repair Time and macadamia oil treatment to provide the necessary hydration and nutrition.
Curly hair: nutrition as much as hydration
Curly hair will need a regular in-between. It is the texture with needs close to frizzy hair, namely a majority of nutrition, but also close to wavy and curly hair, namely more emphasis on hydration. It will therefore be important to provide them with as much hydration as nutrition.
The star product for curly hair will be the Smoothie *. Its complete composition based on aloe vera and glycerin to moisturize, jojoba oil and sweet almond to nourish but also provitamin B5 and protein to strengthen, will be perfect for the curly texture!
For finer curly hair, the Kurl Potion will be quite suitable since it contains hydration and also nutrition but will be much less rich.
For the problem of detangling, because the curls rolled up on themselves create rather tough knots, the Pink Paradise will be the best friend of curly hair! Moisturizing, nourishing and above all very detangling, it will allow the knots to slide gently without breaking the hair fiber.
Frizzy hair: nutrition to avoid breakage
Due to its greater curliness and tighter bends, frizzy hair naturally needs more nutrition. Fattier and richer products will be ideal to reinforce the fiber in order to limit breakage. After the shower or during the realization of protective hairstyles, the Magic Twist will be your best ally: soy, macadamia and sweet almond oils will come to structure and protect the fiber from external attacks.
To fortify the fiber in depth, stimulate hair growth and soothe the scalp, we advise you to take regular oil baths with the Serum Croissance*. This concentrate of 6 vegetable oils and 6 essential oils will fight breakage and alleviate itchy scalp problems while providing softness and shine.
