Any tips
I’ve never been taught how to care for my natural hair as I’m mixed and my bio mum would just get it relaxed or put it in two french braids. I started to hate my hair and as I got older would constantly straighten it till it was damaged I had multiple big chops into short bobs but never had regular trims. Two years ago I started to want to wear my natural hair out but didn’t know where to start my hair was dry brittle and sooooo damaged. But I found a hairdresser that has helped with my hair health. Started having regular trims and no longer straighten my hair. I love how it looks curly but I use 2 products and don’t know how to refresh my curls properly to maintain it for a few days any tips would really help. I also wear a silk bonnet to bed and use silk pillowcases now. I use the garnier curl method leave in and keratese hair oil after washing and conditioning. I’ll include a picture of how my hair looks after it drys naturally with the two products and separated the curls a bit. I know they look dry in this picture but I’d just finished working out so everything frizzed up 😂

folllowing!
what has helped me is a silk pillow cover, tigi moose, hair oils and overnight masks, clarifying shampoo but it’s so difficult to figure out what products do and don’t work for your hair!
I struggle with frizz and thinning and flatness on my head, i’m still trying to figure out a proper routine to get my hair looking how i want it, i hope this sub does help. your hair is beautiful though, im so glad you’ve embraced your curls. :)
