Wait until you have a weekend or day off and then just try wearing your hair down with products. You'll never know until you try. :)





Here are some basic tips for curly hair that you might find helpful:


*Try to find a stylist who knows how to work with curly hair. You can find reviews by region here: http://www.naturallycurly.com/curlsalons


*Don't shampoo every day.


*Comb conditioner through hair in the shower.


*Apply styling products to dripping wet hair. Scrunch or twirl hair to achieve desired shape.


*Use styling products suited for your hair type. Don鈥檛 know yours? http://www.naturallycurly.com/hair-types


*Avoid terrycloth towels on hair; use linen, paper towels, or t-shirts instead.


*Air dry or use a diffuser with your blowdryer.


*Don't touch (or brush!) your hair while it鈥檚 drying.


*Once completely dry scrunch out any crunchy texture.





For hair type specific products check out these forums:

There you can find others with the same hair type and try out some of their favorite products. I would recommend something, but I don鈥檛 know your hair type. :)





Lastly, it has made my hair so much better since I started the curly girl method! I used to almost never wear it down (it was a frizz/poof ball), but now I have pretty, shiny curls. ~:) It鈥檚 pretty radical鈥攏o sulfates (shampoo) or silicones鈥攂ut it鈥檚 so great for curly hair.

I have naturally curly hair also. I have found that paul mitchel ';the Conditioner'; which is a leave in looks great in our hair type. If you wash your hair after your shower if you put some conditioner in and then some mouse or styling product. Syle your hair and let it dry naturally. Everybody loves curls so enjoy them. I like my hair parted on the side and air dryed. Also highlights look great with curly hair.
I have naturally curly hair too and it's somewhere between chin length and shoulder length right now. I find that it works best if after washing and combing out any tangles, while your hair is still wet, put in some anti-frizz serum (to keep the fly-away stuff down to a minimum) and a little mousse or styling gel, scrunch the curls up with your fingers and go. Let it air dry. Ta-da, a whole new look for you. :)
I love this hairstyle:
