How to take care of curly hair

The Dhaka Times Desk Curly hair looks very stylish and beautiful, but keeping it healthy is not an easy task. What you need to do to take care of curly hair will be discussed.

Many opt for chemical treatments like rebonding, flat ironing or straightening as a way to get rid of curly hair. In addition to various types of harmful chemicals, electric heat is also required. Which can't be good at all for hair health. These methods cannot provide any permanent solution either. Today we will discuss various aspects of curly hair care.

Develop the habit of regular hair combing

The biggest enemy of curly hair is tangles. Curly hair can get tangled very quickly and cause a lot of hair fall. Also the hair becomes lifeless. Regular combing of curly hair should also be done to keep the hair free from tangles and to keep the blood circulation of the scalp good. It is best to use a wide tooth comb to comb the hair. The reason is that it will not put too much pressure on the hair. The best time to comb curly hair is when the hair is still slightly damp. Because, just as there is a possibility of hair breakage if you comb your hair when it is too wet, it is very difficult to detangle dry hair. So the hair should be combed by dividing it into several parts when it is slightly wet. Hair can also be combed using a spray if desired.

Avoid excess chemicals

Curly hair is already somewhat dry and rough in nature. If chemicals are used in excess then dryness increases and the hair loses its luster. Therefore, it is better to use chemicals as little as possible on curly hair. Whatever shampoo, oil, conditioner you use, try to use chemical free cosmetics. In particular, the most common sulfate and alcohol-containing products should not be used at all. It is better not to artificially dye this type of hair, but if you want to do it, you must check whether there are additional chemicals or not and then use it.

Not a heat treatment

Many people often straighten their curly hair to make it look nicer temporarily. The heat it causes to the hair is very harmful for the hair. Many people also use hair dryer regularly. The amount of heat the hair has to endure from regular use of a hair dryer can leave the hair feeling rough and lifeless.

Regular oil massage

Curly hair is naturally somewhat rough and dry, so it needs special care. There is no substitute for regular oil massage to retain moisture in the hair and prevent it from becoming rough and dry. But if the oil can be taken slightly warm, then it will be very good. Due to this, the blood circulation will be good, the hair will be moist and strong and the hair roots will be strong.

Conditioning

Curly hair needs to be conditioned regularly. It keeps the hair moist and makes the hair soft and smooth with less tangles. But you must use a conditioner that does not contain any harmful chemicals.

pack usage

Different types of packs are very effective in removing roughness-dryness of hair. For example, you can use a hair pack made of sour curd, ripe banana, honey, ripe papaya etc. sometimes. It will improve the health of hair and remove roughness.
