• The best Hair Products to maintain and enhance Curls

    The best hair products for curls can help to lock in waves that are beautiful and need minimum styling or maintenance.

    If you’re seeking the ideal curly hair products, you can opt for shampoos, conditioners, and hairstyling tools that have been specifically created to maintain silkiness and bounce without making your hair dull and breakable.

    Curls are of two types, viz. those we like to improve and hold and those we want to control, straighten or level.  Shampoos designed for curly hair utilize Panthenol, proteins and plant extracts to reconstruct the protein bonds developed by the amino acids.  These protein bonds can be delinked and restructured by application of heat, chemical reactions and specifically made shampoos/conditioners.

    Most hair cleansers are designed to provide sufficient cleansing and conditioning; the products designed to maintain the curls are formulated with active ingredients like wheat, corn or rice proteins to coat the hair shaft to render a better sheen or to penetrate up to the root and cortex to provide greater strength and hold.

    Hair strength is necessary to maintain tight or large waves.  While hairsprays, gels and mousse are beneficial to control of a hairstyle, environmental factors such as heat and humidity are detrimental.  Using shampoos and conditioners created to strengthen the hair and provide a soft yet lasting hold, can enhance the appearance of curls, and add sheen that has been stripped by excessive heat during hairstyling or by chemical treatments.

    Hair products containing Aloe, Chamomile, Collagen and Hydrolyzed Keratin have been proven effective in maintaining the strength of curls without pulling down the hairstyle, and this is particularly helpful for locks of longer length.  The gentle surfactants present in such products protect the hair and prevent damage.  Plant extracts help faster hair growth and promote re-growth to obtain distinctive curls and a soft hold.
