When my hair might need some extra TLC or it may be looking a bit lackluster, then I'll start my morning with a co-wash. In the mornings before work, I usually wet my hair liberally, dry it a bit with a regular t-shirt instead of a towel to reduce frizz, and then slather on my favorite curl defining, moisturizing styling cream. I'm an advocate of a co-wash, although it might not be for everyone. Personally, my usual curly hair routine is minimal shampooing and maximum conditioning. For reference, my hair has a mix of textures, ranging from 3C to 4B with a few 3B curls to the back of my head and some 4C kinks around the crown. Tighter, type 4 textures need much more moisture than looser type 3 ringlets. When we say curls, coils, and kinks, we're specifically talking about 3A to 4C naturally curl hair. Just like no two curls on the same head of hair are the same, neither will the same styling product give a similar result for different curl patterns. While there are tons of products out there that promise supremely quenched ringlets, our curls have uniquely individual needs. The key to luscious, shiny, bouncing curls and coils, is, say it with us: hydration.
