Having beautiful, defined curls is often difficult and requires a lot of care, no matter how long your hair is. Here are some tips to help you maintain your curls. Depending on the amount of time you have and the length of your hair, several methods are possible. For this you need a styling gel like Curl Styling Gel.
1 Gel and go
If you don’t want to spend a lot of time and want to get beautiful curls quickly, apply the gel to the hair so that it becomes slightly damp. Stretch the hair between your fingers, style it as you wish. Quickly done, well done!
2 Finger coiling
If your hair is long enough, you can define your curls by wrapping them strand by strand around your fingers. Spread the gel generously over the hair, working in small strand by small strand. Take a strand of hair around your finger and roll it around a few times until a beautiful curl is formed. Do each strand in the same way. This method takes a lot of time but ensures amazing results.
3 Curlers and Co
There are several types of curlers on the market, especially the Flexi rods, which are flexible and easy to handle and offer different curl sizes. Apply the gel to the whole hair, separating strand by strand. Wrap each strand on a Flexi rod and let it dry. Once hair is dry, unroll and style, and you’re done!
4 Twist, braid or knot out
You can also choose to braid your hair before going to sleep and untie it in the morning and style it with your fingers. To do this, apply the gel before doing vanilla, bantu knots or another style of braid. In the morning you don’t have to apply any product to the hair, just style it as you like.
5 The sponge
For short hair, there is a sponge that can be used to activate the curls. After applying the gel, the hair is brushed through with circular movements that help define the curls.
There are several other methods of defining curls, so it’s up to you to choose the one that suits you best.
