10 situations that only people with curly hair understand

The desire to change their hair is common among many women. Curly ones, for example, often choose to straighten the wires, in an attempt to reduce care and concern. However, the result of keeping them natural can be very advantageous.

According to hair stylist Léo Lima, curly hair never goes out of style. Those who don’t have them often turn to products and tools that offer the effect. However, the lucky owners of natural curls know that the look is amazing, but the maintenance not so much.

“The advantages and disadvantages of having curly hair are many”, reveals the professional. Curls require special care to always have their shine and volume controlled, but the texture can also help in some cases, such as when the hair is damaged by chemicals or temperature: “depending on the type of curl, the wear is even less visible due to of volume”.

See below common dilemmas of those who have curly hair. Have you ever encountered these situations on a daily basis?

1. Comb your hair: only if it’s wet

Combing your hair when it’s dry can damage the shape of your curls, leaving your hair with volume and no definition. In addition, curls bring with them the formation of knots, which means that trying to style them will not be an easy task.

2. Live looking for good shampoos

Shampoos promise to decrease volume, define curls and reduce frizz. However, you know that this result also depends on how your hair will react to the product. Still, you can’t resist trying a new brand if you’ve heard someone with curly hair say they’ve had good results with it. And only you know how much time and money you spend on it.

3. Being forever dependent on leave-in creams

Wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner and leave the house, letting it dry naturally: never. Finishing creams are essential for defining curls, helping to reduce frizz. They are her best friends and deserve even a smaller package to carry in her purse.

4. Scared to death when they run their hands through your hair

Curly hair was not made for people to run their hands or stroke with their fingers. That’s because it can increase the oiliness of the wires, in addition to deforming the curls. So if you see someone about to do that, your reaction is not the best.

5. Wake up each day with your hair a different way

“When you sleep, the curls open and lose their effect, leaving an uncontrolled volume”, says Léo. So, looking in the mirror when you wake up is always a surprise. To not make the situation worse, avoid sleeping with wet hair.

6. Not being able to toss your hair from one side to the other

Straight hair has the advantage that it can be tossed this way and that, tied up or down, and it won’t be marked. Curly is quite different: “you have positioned your hair, you have to leave it there”, reinforces the professional. Changing the position will make the volume uncontrollable and the curls will be lost. That’s why when you fix it, you hope that nothing will make it move. But, on days when your hair is in a good mood, nothing prevents you from swinging it like Joelma on stage.

7. Having rain and humidity as your worst enemies

Rain and humidity always bring one thing: frizz. And no matter how hard you try to cover yourself, you know the effect will be the same. Sometimes you’d even rather stay at home than have to deal with this problem.

8. Living on the edge between beautiful hair and messy hair

Curly hair has the advantage of being versatile: it can be completely formal or much lighter, depending on how it is styled. However, this quality can become a defect when the relaxation and lightness of curly wires brings the feeling of disorganization.

9. Spend your life trying to contain frizz

He will always be the main responsible for you not being satisfied with your hair, and because of that, you will spend your life trying to get away from him, even if this task is the most difficult. Feel the wind on your face? For you, this is synonymous with frizz. Then you dismiss.

10. But despite everything, never wanting to straighten

And despite all the efforts they require, your curls give you self-confidence and you never want to give them up. When you see them tidy, you give up all the times you thought about straightening them.

Curls require care like any type of hair, and can be even more difficult to control. But don’t forget that the efforts required for each type of curl will depend on the structure of the strands, genetic circumstances and even your lifestyle. Know yours well and take care of them in the best way, whether assuming or straightening. The important thing is that you feel good, and your hair suits you.
