Wavy tresses have this beautiful beachy texture that is so adorable! Gals who love a wash-and-go routine may desire such hair badly. What’s more? You can easily blow dry this hair type to perfection. And yes, these tresses can hold on the sensuous soft curls for hours together.
No wonder wavy hair are envious.
Yet, ask a lady who has wavy hair texture and she will tell you that not everything is a bed of roses in this case. You need to have a proper routine for hair care to flaunt the loveliness of this hair texture.
Hey, before we go any further with this discussion, first determine whether you have wavy hair.
Tip to Determine Whether You Have Wavy Hair
Wash your hair. Then air dry them. Do not use any product. Let them be all natural. If your hair, after air drying, display loose S-shaped curves, congratulations, you are one of the lucky ladies to possess naturally wavy tresses!
Hacks to Keep Your Tresses Waving with Health and Happiness
Now for the important part. Whether you want to enhance the overall health of your hair or make your hair flaunt a wavier look, you must indulge in a daily hair care routine that suits wavy hair texture.
1. Get the Right Shampoo
Bring home a no-nonsense sulfate-free mild cleansing shampoo that treats your hair delicately. We recommend Keranique Scalp Stimulating Shampoo due to its mild formula that lathers less (due to absence of sulfates). This means it is gentle to hair. As you use it regularly, it gradually “scraps off” the debris and buildup of previous product residues.
And, ladies, if you have wavy hair with fine texture, this shampoo can help your hair look voluminous and bouncier. The shampoo has keratin substances that form a thin film around cuticles. This adds volume to strands, makes them shinier and smoother, and gives your mane an overall glossier look.
2. Get the Right Haircut
Choose the right haircut for your wavy texture. This helps to enhance the waviness of hair texture and makes your tresses more attractive.
Have fine hair? Choose blunt cut upto the shoulders or short layers instead of long hair. The soft waves of your fine hair will play with your face cut and give you an attractive look.
Want something bold? Get a pixie! And its super easy to maintain and style.
Have thick hair? You can flaunt long hair, but ask your hair stylist to give your hair layers, which will remove the bulky appearance and give your hair body.
3. Trim those Split Ends
This is the thumb rule of healthy waves.
If you let split ends stay for long, they will damage the entire shaft of your hair, aggravating the problem of frizz. You must visit the salon every 8-12 weeks to get a nice trim. This will keep your hair texture free of damage and splits.
If you have a habit of bleaching and heat styling your products, you must trim often because heat processed hair are more prone to damage.
4. Fight the Frizz
Air dried wavy hair often become frizzy. And if you use flat irons and blow dryers to style your tresses, they may be subjected to unnecessary heat damage. So, it’s a catch-22 situation.
In this case, you must invest in good styling products that are particularly designed to fight frizz. We recommend Keranique Lift & Repair Treatment Spray. It repairs damage to hair and prevents new damage by heat styling tools. So, if you are fond of blow drying your hair, although our experts advise against daily blow drying, you can use this spray during blow drying session for the ultimate hair style you desire.
The spray, without being greasy or heavy on hair, holds each strand in place and gives you a neat style, which stays put throughout the day.
5. Hydrate and Hydrate
One of the pitfalls of wavy hair is dryness. This worsens frizz and flyaways. While you use the spray for styling and setting hair, you must condition them. Our experts advise using shampoo and conditioner from the same brand so that there is no clash of formulations.
Keranique Volumizing Keratin Conditioner is a useful product for wavy hair. Conditioned hair have fewer flyaways. The conditioner keeps your hair well hydrated. The keratin film seals cuticles and moisture is trapped in hair shaft. This keeps your tresses moisturized.
6. Brush Correctly
Yes, grandma’s 100 strokes may still work, but you must know how to give the strokes. Most of us brush our hair the wrong way. Many even wrestle with their tresses, pulling and jerking them!
If your hair are more prone to knots and tangles, you must change the shampoo, as it shows that your shampoo is too harsh and makes your hair go wild.
Women who use Keranique’s shampoo report that their hair become more manageable and easier to style. They tangle lesser too.
Always start brushing from the ends and then move upwards. This is the golden rule of detangling hair. It leads to less breakage, less torture to hair, and a more pleasant brushing experience. Why not try Keranique Hair Detangling Tool? You will love it.
Moreover, if you order the entire Keranique Hair Regrowth System, you get this tool as a bonus gift.
7. Remember the Don’ts
Don’t comb or brush hair when wet. They are at their weakest at this time. Let them air dry. You can start detangling them when they are slightly damp.
Don’t rub hair with towel. Rubbing hair together breaks cuticles and renders your tresses more prone to frizz. Simply wrap a towel over the head to absorb excess water. Then let hair air dry. Do not touch them.
So, ladies, if you have a habit of rubbing your hair with towel, stop now!
Psst…
There are days when your hair just don’t want to be wavy. It’s okay. Just tie them up in a messy bun, fritz some lifting spray to fix the flyaways and lo, you have a stylish hairdo!
Follow the above tips and flaunt your wavy hair like never before.
