Curly Vision

FINAL WASH
Now that you’ve got everything you need, give your hair one final wash with a sulfate shampoo. This will get rid of any old non-curly girl approved product build up and give you a clean canvas to work with.

You need to avoid heat, as that also dries your hair out. This means no more heated styling tools, blow dryers on high heat, or hot showers. But warm showers are good! You don’t want to be uncomfortable.

WHAT TO AVOID
You want to avoid products that have sulfates, silicones, and drying alcohols. They all contribute to hair damage and/or moisture reduction. (And moisture is key in helping curls curl and stay frizz free.)
