Tips for Fine Mixed Wavy Curly Hair
- Less is More: Avoid using too many products or heavy formulas. "Beyond products - for fine curly hair LESS IS MORE!!"
- Apply Products to Wet Hair: This helps distribute them evenly and reduces the risk of buildup. "I follow with Garnier Fructis Papaya Hair Foods. I use it sometimes as a conditioner if I co-wash with the Shea Moisture, or as a deep conditioner."
- Clarify Regularly: Use a clarifying shampoo to remove product buildup and keep your scalp clean. "I find I have to clarify or chelate at least every other wash for my fine hair."
- Protein Treatment: Consider incorporating protein to balance moisture and strengthen hair. "I also feel like beginners often don't get enough info about the importance of protein in their 'hair diet'"
