Curly hair is divided into three different curl types: wavy, curly and coily.<\/li>\n<li>Wash your curls with a sulfate-free shampoo.<\/li>\n<li>Or even better: use a conditioner instead of shampoo. This is also known as . Shampoo washes all the natural oils from your hair, that your dry curls need.<\/li>\n<li>Never brush your hair when it\u2019s dry, only when it\u2019s wet &#8211; preferably after applying conditioner. If you comb your hair after a shower, you will comb your curls apart, causing frizz.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t use a brush or comb, rather use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kurlify.com\/en\/curly-girl-method\/discover-which-denman-brush-you-need\/\">Denman Brush<\/a>. This will prevent broken hair and saves the structure of your curls.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t use a towel to dry your curls. Normal towels absorb all the moisture from your hair and cause it to frizz. Rather use a cotton T-shirt or microfiber towel.<\/li>\n<li>Use your hands as much as possible when styling your hair. For example, massage your scalp to get volume or let a strand slide through your fingers for a nice structure. And of course: a lot of scrunching!<\/li>\n<li>Sleep on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kurlify.com\/en\/hair-products\/satin-or-silk-pillowcase-for-beautiful-healthy-curls\/\">satin or silk pillowcase<\/a> to protect your curls at night.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid heat tools that harm your curls. If you can&#8217;t live without a hair dryer, use a diffuser. Preferably on medium or cold.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid oil-based silicones.<\/li>\n<li>Look for a good curl hair stylist.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f45d5bb elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f45d5bb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What are the types of curls?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b1cc1a3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b1cc1a3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"691\" height=\"1014\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kurlify.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Wat-is-mijn-krultype.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-28727\" alt=\"Wat-is-mijn-krultype\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kurlify.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Wat-is-mijn-krultype.png 691w, https:\/\/www.kurlify.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Wat-is-mijn-krultype-600x880.png 600w, https:\/\/www.kurlify.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Wat-is-mijn-krultype-64x94.png 64w, https:\/\/www.kurlify.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Wat-is-mijn-krultype-204x300.png 204w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 691px) 100vw, 691px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0645ad6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0645ad6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>It\u2019s useful to find out and understand your curl type, so you can adjust your routine, products and hairstyles accordingly.
