CG mistakes that you would rather not make
❌ Do not use a mask
Use a mask once a week, deep conditioner, this will give extra moisture/nourishment to your curls
Comb your hair when it is dry
This will cause a lot of hair loss and breakage!
❌ Do not cleanse your hair thoroughly once a month
A clarifying shampoo once a month removes all dirt and build-up from your hair and leaves your hair completely clean. Products are better absorbed and restored the curl definition
Use a normal towel to dry your hair
Experience the difference with a microfiber towel or a t-shirt. You will prevent frizz and hair breakage.
❌ Not using enough product
This means that you have to cover all the hair with product, distribute it in your hair and then comb it through thoroughly. Otherwise, you're likely to end up with a combination of defined curls and strands with less curl and more frizz.
❌ Using too much product
Using too much product from your scalp should be avoided. Start applying product a few inches from your scalp and make sure you distribute it well so that not one half of your hair has more product than the other half. If you have fine hair, it's not a good idea to use a lot of product anyway, as it can weigh your hair down, resulting in saggy curls.
❌Touching your hair when it's wet
Plucking your hair while air drying or using a diffuser can create extra frizz. You don't want this. So, no matter how difficult it is, only do this when your hair is completely dry.
