Curly fizzy hair??

- Read the book and visit the sites below about curly hair. I did and my once horrible curly hair is now virtually frizz-free ringlets. Now I get compliments on my hair all the time! Straighten your hair- be happy for a day, learn to manage your curly hair- be happy for life!

- To style your hair using the curly-girl method you will need gel, a leave in cream, and conditioner at the minimum. Some less useful, but still nice stuff would be a blowdryer, a diffuser (reduces frizz in curly/wavy hair when used with dryer), and a microfiber hair turban (to dry wet hair while sleeping or in the morning).

-The main philosophy of the curly-girl method is to not use shampoo. This may sound unhygenic but it has actually made my hair less oily and dandruffy. Most shampoos contain some of the same chemicals found in laundry detergent (sodium laureth sulfate, sodum lauryl sulfate, ammonium laureth sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate, etc.). They dry out curly hair. Also you shouldn't brush your curly hair dry because it damages the hair and makes it poof.

- Massaging of the scalp with conditioner to remove dirt is all that is needed. It will clean everything but super clingy silicones (cyclopentasiloxane and dimethicone are examples). Then rinse and spread conditioner on the outside layer of hair and the hair at the nape of your neck. Gently comb tangles out with your fingers or a wide toothed comb and rinse with cold/cool water.

- Do not brush/comb your hair after this point because it wil disturb the curl pattern (make sure you already have a part). It is also important to use gel on sopping wet hair and scrunch the hair with your fingers. Make sure gel is evenly distributed everywhere in your hair. If you use too much you can always scrunch out the crunchy texture later.

- Use paper towels or an old t-shirt to gently scrunch some of the water out (generic towels can make hair frizz). You can either let your hair air dry or wait ten minutes and then use a blowdryer with a diffuser. Dry until your hair is almost dry, and then air dry the last bit. Do not touch the hair while it is air drying or it will frizz!

- Use a moisturizing conditioner, such as Kenra Moisturizing Conditioner (found at Ulta) or Activate Hydrating Conditioner (found at most drugstores). The combo of products that I use daily is L'Oreal Out of Bed Weightless Texturizer (comes in a black-colored tub) and then Herbal Essences Set Me Up Gel or Body Envy Gel, but there are more conditioners, gels, etc. on the websites. The products I recommended are my personal favorites and contain no silicones or drying alcohols.

- As for keeping it curly, you'll probably want to take showers in the morning so your hair doesn't mess up. If after that you want to wear it down the next day too, try wearing your hair in a high ponytail using a scrunchie ( hair twistie covered in cloth) the night before. Also, sleeping on a sating pillow case will also preserve curls. If you still want to take showers at night you can try plopping. This website explains it:

- Your hair may seem worse at first, but it is just adjusting. This may take a couple weeks to begin working. Before you decide to quit shampoo, do a final cleanse with shampoo and stop the use of any products with silicones in them. Hope this helps!

Try pantene leave in moisterizer, also if you want to streighten it out put that in and then blow dry it. That will also help with splitins. This also helps after you shower and bath. Sorry I don't have any tips on how to cut your hair. p

Best product line for curly hair is Ouidad (www.ouidad.com)

they specialize in curly hair. I buy the 33.5 oz bottles of their "Tame Shampoo" %26amp; "Tame Balancing Rinse" and "Climate Control Gel". The gel is light, helps define curls and helps to keep hair curly not frizzy especially in humid weather. The 33.5 oz bottles last me about a year (My hair is a little longer than shoulder length) %26amp; are cheaper than buying the smaller bottles.

If you are going to use a blow dryer, use a diffuser to reduce frizz %26amp; split ends.

Also, I usually just dampen my hair the next day to reactivate the curls (I use a spray bottle with water) fluff the curls %26amp; I'm good to go. :o )
