Very Curly Tresses
Surprise: The best styling secret for super-curly hair is to keep styling to a minimum. Don’t pile on product. All you need is a leave-in conditioner to style your strands. A dime-size amount should do. Spread it evenly throughout your locks, from roots to ends, when the hair is still dripping wet. Use a wide-toothed comb to spread the conditioner through your hair. Blow-dry hair or, better yet, let it air dry. Then hands off! The more you touch naturally curly hair, the frizzier it gets.
Wavy Locks
Keeping the natural waves of your hair is easier than you may think. To better define waves, start by smoothing a generous amount of curl cream on still-damp strands. Then attach a diffuser to your blow dryer, using it until your hair is 50% dry. If you want to maximize the wavy texture even more, finish your style with a few twists and turns of a large-barrel curling iron.
Flat Tresses
Many people believe that more layers and angles make hair look fuller. Not true. Adding too much movement to already-flat hair can make it fall limp. The key is to keep the thickness of your hair in long pieces. Don’t chop it up and thin it out with a lot of layers. Get a cut that is one length to add fullness and body to strands. For example, try a collarbone-length bob.
Chemically Relaxed Hair
A surefire way to break or lose relaxed hair is to overuse styling tools. Beware of blow dryers and flat irons. Keep hair smooth and straight (without heat!) by wrapping it at night and covering with a snag-proof silk scarf. Simply comb all of your hair around the crown of your head until it is smooth. Secure with bobby pins as needed and cover with the scarf. Read more
