Looking after Curly Hair

​Manufacturers would have you believe that the best way to look after curly hair is to buy expensive shampoo and conditioners that promise to hydrate and care for curls. But did you know that, whilst you need conditioner, shampooing curly hair actually strips the hair of its necessary moisture and can even cause greasiness by making your hair work harder to hydrate itself? You can cut your hair care costs in half by forgoing the shampoo and instead, treating your scalp to a one to three minute massage using a good natural moisturising conditioner. Make sure you rinse thoroughly to remove all grease and dirt from your scalp and hair. Your hair will start to feel much softer and less dry once you've kicked the shampoo habit.. And you can still go back to the occasional shampoo use once every few weeks ago if you feel you really need it. Your hair truly can look after itself and save you a fortune.
