It doesn’t matter whether they are pulled back into an elaborate style or left loose, is there anything as gorgeous as a tip of curls? Such expressive shapes – regardless of the pattern and type – spirals, curls and loops give the impression of something more than just a stunning hairstyle. They often constitute a key, integral part of a user’s identity. That’s probably why it feels so special when a star wears her natural curls on the red carpet or shares them with her followers in a social media post. The more often stars show off their natural hair, the more styling ideas and care tips their fans receive.
Some may be looser, longer, tighter or thicker, but all types of curls require special hair care to keep them looking and feeling their healthiest. Choose a solid washing program for the day, apply a nourishing conditioner to your curls and give them a moment of respite after working hours by using silk pillowcases and fine scarves. No matter your curl pattern or texture, a little TLC will keep them all looking amazing for any event or occasion.
