I have naturally curly hair.
Sometimes not very often I blow dry it straight and it turns out so soft, but when I leave it curly its incredibly dry... why?
I condition it and after I apply serum oil.. sometimes more than once..
What can I do to get soft hair when I leave it natural curly?
Thank u

I have the same issue! But hair is different for all of us, so here is what I do to keep my locks from getting too dry: After I wash and condition it, I apply a curl-control crème through my hair while it is damp, then I let it air dry. But if I am on the go, I apply the crème THEN blow dry it gently with a diffuser attachment on the blowdryer.

The crème I use is by Garnier, but Frizz Ease products work great, too, they just cost a tad bit more. You can also try a hot oil treatment once a month. Hope this helps! :)

Krs, apply a leave-in conditioner when you wash your hair, it will help tame the frizz and soften the curls in your hair. If possible let it dry naturally.

I always let my hair dry naturally when I leave it curly whether I'm staying in or going out.
But thanks you 2 will keep that mind :)

Hey I have seriously curly hair too, I put olive oil in my hair once a week and that helps moisturize it. Also, for when you are going out You could use a remouldable hair putty. The one I use is called L'oreal Remix, its been a lifesaver for me, the day I started using this was the first day I wore my hair down in YEARS. I almost cried... :)
