To protect your curls, use a shampoo to cleanse your hair and then detangle and nourish curls with a curl-defining conditioner. Combat humidity with a frizz-fighting serum.

If your hair texture is fine and straight, it's likely you've tried and, ultimately, failed to keep curls full and voluminous for an entire day.
It can be a frustrating endeavor. Here's how it usually goes: Things start off great, and your hair looks full and bouncy immediately after styling. Then, somewhere between your apartment door and the subway, you're dealing with flat, limp strands. It's happened to the best of us, but there are ways to help. I reached out to a few of my favorite hairstylists, masters of their craft who have encountered this problem often in their line of work. Below, they detail the best techniques and products to use when you want your styled curls to have some staying power.
From light conditioners and hot tools to a "cradling" technique, keep scrolling for the answers that you've been looking for. Ahead, two hairstylists share how to make straight hair curly. With clays, the texture is key, as these formulas are slightly heavier and give more muscle to the style you're trying to achieve—in this case, curls that stay put. Molina advises using a less-is-more approach when it comes to styling product, being careful not to apply too much too quickly.
As a general rule, the thicker your hair, the higher you want the heat to be. For thin, stick-straight strands, buy and adjustable curling iron and keep it on the lowest setting it allows to avoid frying your hair. It features a 1. It's true that the products we use have so much to do with the way our hair turns out—texture, lift, smoothness, everything.
And while a lot of it has to do with natural texture, products are paramount when you're trying to manipulate your hairstyle. If you're using a conditioner that's too heavy, he says, it's going to contribute to your hair falling flat after it's been curled.
Instead, choose a lighter formula, and only apply it to the ends rather than from the roots down. The rumors are true: Dirty hair holds shape better.
If you think about it, the logic is sound. When your hair is clean, it has more slip, allowing for that smooth, soft, shiny texture. If your hair has some trouble holding a curl, though, you'll be more successful with the strands roughed up a bit. Don't worry, though—this doesn't have to be a Shirley Temple situation. By the time you finish your hair, each wave will have relaxed to the size you're looking for.
When your hair is still hot from your styling tools, the texture will stretch out and fall much easier because it has yet to set. I have several issues like dryness and hyperthyroidism.
After I had an haircut and stopped brushing my hair as dry, I got much better definition with some ringlets underneaths. When I started using a diffuser instead of air dry, fat 3a ringlet curls appeared a bit everywhere on my head except in the back , roots are still straighter though. Last time I tried a product on a strand without diffuser and had a tightened ringlet appeared like, real spirals even if I separate them But you said products and diffuser can not turn wavy hair as curly, but in my case, it really did.
How is it possible? Is it my hair who has potential to be curly? If someone with truly straight hair were to use a diffuser on their hair, it would still dry straight. You got the results that you got because of your natural hair pattern. Hope that makes sense. Thanks a lot for taking time to answer! So, if I understands, my hair really are curly more likely a mixe of waves and ringlet curls in my case , but used to be weighted down by water?
What else would you suggest to get the hair not weighted down and keep that definition without a blow drier? I get nice curls with diffuser but even on soft air it turns my hair very dry and frizzy, and I m scared that doing that every shampoo although one shampoo per weeks would ends up to damage my hair… Few days ago I made a test and re watered only one strand, shampooed, added conditioner and then a leave in, combed wet and scrunched, the strand dried in a nice and very defined ringlet curl; it actually dried!
I had to scrunch to help evacuate entirely all the leave in though, no grease. Sorry for the novel. I before only was brushing my hair on dry and got only barely wavy with slight more definition underneath, I never thought I could get my hair so curly, because it was not damaged.
Do you think brushing hair on dry can break curls at this point? Yes, I think your hair was looser-textured due to being wet longer when you air dry.
I think the only way to keep it from getting weighed down by water is to dry it faster, by diffusing. Regarding holding your hairs shape, have you tried gel or mousse? Gel or mousse are designed to help hold shape.
The wheat protein shrinks when it dries therefore helping enhance curl. Please explain if you can… i am legitimately curious about the science behind this one. Thanks for pointing this out!
