What is a curl cream?
A curl cream is an emulsification of oil and water. It conditions and moisturises your hair from the inside out.
Anyone with curls knows that they’re often dry, frizzy and brittle – which is why a curl cream is a good hair product to use for most curlies. A good curl cream will contain oils and other hydrating ingredients to lock in moisture for days.
It will also enhance the natural pattern of the hair, by encouraging curl formation. It’s one of the key products that will help you achieve the prettiest curls.
Should I use curl cream?
There are so many hair care products on the market that it’s hard to choose just one. Besides that, every head of curls is different.
So the curl cream that works best for someone else doesn’t necessarily have to be the best product for your curls. It all depends on your curl type and the specific needs of your hair.
But in general we can say that a curling cream is especially suitable for people with curl type 3 or 4. And a little less for people with fine or wavy hair.
This is because it’s a somewhat heavier product. With curl type 2, you need light hair products that don’t weigh down your hair.

How to use curl cream
Start by washing your hair, and use a leave-in conditioner after. Apply the curl cream to wet hair. Optionally section your hair into four sections for a better distribution of the product.
Make sure you use the right amount, because if you use too little it won’t spread evenly, but if you use too much, it will become too oily. Scrunch it in for maximum impact. After this you can use a gel or mousse.
When your hair is dry, you’ll have smooth curls that stand up to humidity.
A curl cream can also work on dry hair, especially if moisture is your problem. Need a quick refresh? Apply it to your hair, distribute evenly and scrunch to bring back your curls.

Hi there. Creating a website to advertise your beauty salon is a great idea, and it’s definitely possible to find an experienced and competent developer to help you with this project. Before you start looking for a developer, make sure you have a clear understanding of what you want your website to look like and what features you need. Set a budget for your website project. This will help you narrow down your options and find a developer who can work within your budget. From my experience, I can recommend you Integrio (https://integrio.net/dedicated-developers/hire-ruby-on-rails-developers). I ordered an app from them, but they also develop websites.
