As the vibrant colors of autumn begin to paint the world around us, it's time for our curly hair routines to adapt to the changing season. Embracing the cool, crisp air while nourishing and styling our curls could be the perfect way to welcome fall. Whether you're a man or a woman with luscious curls, here are five essential tips to keep your locks looking their best this season.
1. Hydration is Key
Fall weather often brings drier air, which can leave your curls feeling thirsty. Keep your hair hydrated by incorporating deep conditioning treatments into your routine. Opt for products rich in moisturizing ingredients(though for my low porosity curly's, this could be a bit too heavy, so try a light conditioner) like shea butter or argan oil to ensure your curls stay nourished and healthy. Utilize that steam in the shower to really lock in that moisture.
2. Switch Up Your Styling
With the cooler temperatures of fall, it might be time to experiment with different styles that complement the season. For me, I love resorting to pinterest and finding people that look like me online to mimic their techniques. Accessorize with cozy hats or scarves for a chic and practical touch.
3. Adjust Your Wash Day Routine
As the weather changes, your hair's needs may change too. Consider adjusting the frequency of your wash days to prevent your curls from becoming too dry. It's really important to make sure to keep your scalp and hair dry so please make time for diffusing or air dry before stepping into cooler climates!
4. Seal in the Moisture
Lock in moisture by using a lightweight oil to seal the ends of your curls. Pay special attention to the oldest parts of your hair, as they are more prone to dryness and damage. This simple step can help prevent split ends and keep your curls looking defined and healthy. If they're split already, then it's definitely time for a Genesis Curlz Dry Cut.
5. Embrace Your Natural Texture
Fall is the perfect time to really try new things and let your natural curls shine. Embrace your unique texture and work with what you have rather than fighting against it. Consider trying out new products that you've been wanting to use, and buy on trend curl accessories for your next special event!
With these five curly tips, you're on the road all set to navigate the fall season with confidence and style. Let this season be a time of self-expression and empowerment through your gorgeous curly locks.
