Eliminate from daily use – blowdrying, hair brushes, straighteners, harsh chemical treatments and elastic bands. Blowdrying is fine for quick drying, but make sure to use a cold setting and appropriate hair care product (leave in conditioner etc.), use fingers instead of a hair brush, but if need be brush hair when wet and rinse with water after brushing to eliminate the chance of frizz.

Wash with cold water – cold water helps to make hair shinier, locks in moistures and reduces frizz – in essence, single handedly tackling the three major problems of curly hair.

Hair products – avoid excessive use of hair products. This means when using gel or mousse, rub your hands together to heat the product which will help distribute it evenly. Avoid shampooing everyday (conditioning on the other hand is ok). Of course, there are a number of hair care products that are extremely useful for curly hair.
