Don’t wash it too much. It is important that you don’t wash your curly hair every single day. This would only strip the hair of its natural oil, produced by the skin on your head. When it’s being washed every day, the hair becomes prone to dryness. It is wiser to wash it every other day, or maybe a few times a week. Also, another advice in the same category is to don’t wash, rinse and repeat, as that kind of washing works only for those who have a straight hair. In case you may need to, use conditioner in-between the washes. This way the sulfates, which can be found in most of the shampoos, won’t harm your hair.

Use the shampoo and the conditioner for your hair in sections. Curly hair is oftentimes very dense and not easily manageable. This makes it difficult for you to reach all the parts of the hair when washing it. In case you have specifically thick or curly hair, make sure you are washing and condition it one section at a time. The size of the section depends on how dense your hair is. Logically the denser it is, the smaller the section should be. Use a shampoo for curly hair. Others take the natural oil of your hair
out.

Make use of a rich, good conditioner for every single wash. It may even be helpful to condition your ends in-between washes, in case they are indeed dry. Also, use some other moisturizing/protective products, in-between or after shampooing. Apply the conditioner starting from the bottom. Don’t place it on your hair like it doesn’t need to reach the roots. The conditioner and the shampoo, they both have to reach the roots of your hair.

Use your finger to massage your scalp. The scalp is the skin on your head. In order for the earlier mentioned products to reach the roots of your hair, and for the hair to become stronger and healthier, you may need to use your fingers and easily massage the scalp. This way, you will avoid breakage, and you will no longer need to brush your hair after it has been dry.

Avoid styling your hair with heat. This is generally available for curly hair. In case you don’t want your hair to be straightened, avoid using heat on curly hair. This changes the structures of proteins in your hair, making it more limpy and not at all strong. Instead, use a curl-styling cream before starting to dry it.
