The most common mistakes & how to avoid them:

1️⃣ HAIR IS WET WHEN TAKING IT 🚿

Curls need a dry base to hold their shape! If your hair is still damp when you curl it, it often doesn't dry completely and loses its bounce.
✅ TIP: Make sure your hair is at least 90% dry before you start!

2️⃣ TOO MUCH CONDITIONER 🧴

Yes, moisture is super important for healthy curls – but too much care can weigh your hair down! Leave-in conditioners and rich conditioners in particular can cause your curls to lose their shape faster.
✅ TIP: Use light products and apply sparingly!

3️⃣ COMBING YOUR HAIR TOO EARLY 🪮

We know how tempting it is to comb through your curls right after opening them – but STOP! Give your curls time to settle.
✅ TIP: Let them rest for a while after removing them before carefully styling them with your fingers!

4️⃣ DO NOT USE STYLING PRODUCTS 🧴

Sometimes curls just need a little help!
✅ TIP: You get extra support with: Texture spray for natural hold, styling mousse for maximum volume, and hairspray for the final touch. Or this . Curl hold trio – for curls that are guaranteed to last all day.

5️⃣ USED TOO HEAVY HAIR OIL ⚖️

A little oil can help avoid frizz – but too much or too heavy oil can pull your curls down.
✅ TIP: Opt for light oils like jojoba oil and use only a few drops!
