How do you choose a product?

ROADMAP

First of all, it is important to consider the purpose of your products. To make it clear, the washing routine is divided into 3 steps. Do you want a full routine? Then choose 1 or more products from each step.

Step 1: Wash

The first step is washing your hair. When washing your hair, clean your scalp of product residue, dirt and sweat.

Different types of shampoos:

  • Reset Shampoo
    A reset shampoo or final wash shampoo contains sulphates, which are extreme cleaners. You can use this shampoo when you start with the curly girl method or when you want to give your hair an extremely thorough wash. This shampoo is not recommended as your 'basic' shampoo.
  • Clearifying Shampoo
    This is a shampoo that gives your hair a thorough wash without drying them out. Recommended for people whose hair gets greasy more quickly or who like a 'clean' feeling.
  • Moisturizing Shampoo
    This is a moisturizing shampoo. Ideal for people who quickly suffer from dry scalp and hair lengths.

  • Co-Wash
     This is a combination of a conditioner and a wash (shampoo) together. This makes a co-wash a very mild form of shampoo. Ideal for people who like to freshen up their hair between washes. Please note: a co-wash is not recommended for people whose hair quickly becomes greasy or falls out.

Step 2: Care

Step 2 is taking care of your hair. After washing, apply a caring product to your hair. You can do this with a conditioner. If you want more intense care, choose a mask.

Step 3: Styling

The final step is styling your hair. Styling is an optional step but can make a huge difference in the final outcome of your curls. Styling products are intended to make your curls stand out optimally. I divide styling products into 3 categories.

  • Hydration

First, apply a leave-in, lotion or cream. This step gives your curls extra care and prevents dry hair.

  • Fixation

Apply a gel or mousse over this. This product is the 'glue' that holds your curls in place.

  • Finish

As a final step, you can use products such as a hair spray, an anti-frizz serum or an oil.
