For your hair, you just don’t need any conditioner, but the one that effectively hydrates your hair. The best part is that without wearing your hair down, it detangles your hair. As a result, you can easily comb your hair. Once you regularly use these conditioners, on your wedding day, the curls will be easy to manage. Remember to use a conditioner that contains proteins, as it is more suitable for this type of hair.

With a curly hair, the last thing you need is ‘more volume’ right after you dry your hair (uncalled for, right?) Many times, when you sleep with wet hair, it explodes in the morning. If you blow dry all of it, the hair becomes fluffier. So, in order to avoid both these scenarios and get the right volume, you have to blow dry the ends of the hair. Then, you may loosely tie your hair with a pony and let it dry.

Just like your face, the skin of your scalp needs exfoliation too, especially if you have curly hairs. You may go with the common oil massage every once in a while. However, what will really make the difference is the use of clay powder. Once you regularly apply (not more than 20 minutes) it on your scalp, it will moisturize the roots. Furthermore, it will also help you get rid of the dead skin and dandruff buildups.

For your wedding, you need soft curls that are separated. A gentle serum massage will give you just that. Most importantly, a silicon spray or styling gel will make hair styling much easier. In order to settle the hair, you may use a mousse that contains natural ingredients like shea butter. You can also make a product ‘cocktail’, like mixing your favorite serum and mousse together. It will have profound effects on your hair, especially on your big day. This mix up will increase the shine, strength and protect it from external dirt.

It is suggested to comb your hair from the bottom up so that every strand is gently brushed in the process. To get better results, you have to prefer a wide tooth comb.
