Answers to the most common questions about

In recent years, some women have tended to return to nature by focusing on the appearance of healthy, natural "curly" hair, but surely each of them has a lot of questions about the best way to care for it. That's why we gathered a collection of the most common questions and their answers for you regarding wavy hair.

What are the types of "curly" hair and how can I determine my hair type?

There are two criteria for knowing what type of "curly" hair you should consider when starting to research:

1. The type of hair porosity, whether high, low, medium, or even a mixture between the two types. It is one of the important things because it has a great impact when choosing products for "curly" hair care routine. The hair porosity test shows how much moisture the hair absorbs and loses, so the more porosity your hair increases, the faster it absorbs water and moisturizing products.

2. The shape of the waves of hair. Knowing the shape of hair waves is important, but not as important as the porosity of the hair, but the method of applying the product to your hair can affect how to maintain the shape of the "curly" or waves when washing it. Knowing the type of your child's hair is not important at the time being because the nature of his/her hair can change over the years. Therefore, it is preferable to take care of your child's hair with the least possible products that can maintain the health of the hair instead of focusing on using the appropriate products for his/her hair type.

What types of hair cannot be turned into "curly"?

Usually fine hair does not turn into "curly" and wavy, so you must return to the nature of the hair, it is either "curly" or wavy or smooth, and in some cases you can think that the hair is originally soft because of brushing it and using chemicals that lead to straightening it, but with discontinuation of use and once you use a healthy hair care routine, the waves begin to appear in their true and natural form.

Is there a difference between a long and short "curly" hair routine?
