Styling products for naturally curly hair?

ok I have naturally curly hair and it seems like no matter which products I use, my hair always turns out either really frizzy and poofy or my hair is crispy and looks wet. What are some good products for styling curly hair? And how does one use them? Do you apply it to wet hair, comb it through, scrunch it?? Please help!

I would recommend using a texture cream for curly hair. Some good ones are: Aquage Curl Defining Cream or Alterna Texturizing Glaze. A cream based product will keep moisture in the hair so it will be less frizzy, without being greasy, and your hair will not have that crunchy feel that gels give. A lot of times on clients I will mix a curl defining cream with a mousse to give the hair a little bit more hold, while still keeping it from being crunchy.

put frizz ease on wet hair and let it air dry. DO NOT BRUSH OR COMB IT.

Use paul mitchell clean sculpting gel and then apply it when your hair is wet. Keep scrunching it until your hair is dry so you won't have that wet look. I also have very curly hair and find thats the best way to style it. Take my advice, I know what I'm talking about.

I shampoo and condition my curly hair with Aussie shampoo and conditioner (moisterizing).



Then I run a comb through my hair so it's not tangly.



Next I spray Aussie "Hair Insurance--leave-in conditioner" all over my hair.



After mess my hair up a little so all my hair is back to curly. (throw your head back and forth, side to side, etc.)



Then I use Herbal Essences curl-gel. (I forget what it's called exactly but it's the purple container in the States!) I squeeze about a baby tomato size into my hand and scrunch my hair. Make sure there isn't gel all in one specific place!



After that I dry my hair using a diffuser. A DIFFUSER is essential for us girls with curly hair--it saves your freakin life I swear lol! A diffuser drys your hair without the frizz. When my hair is about 80% dry I spray Tressume Hair Activator Spray all over. This is supposed to "activate" the curl without the frizz.



After that I dry my hair with the diffuser till my hair is about 90% dry.



I let my hair air-dry the rest of the way while continuing to scrunch my hair with my hands every once in a while.



NOTE--the products I use are meant to prevent frizzy hair, but too much of them can overdo it!



GOOD LUCK!
